Dr. Gianfranco Spellman began serving the Austin area in 1971. Our office specializes in small animal care, including well visits, routine vaccinations, and surgical procedures. While we are open 6 days a week to better serve our community, an appointment is necessary. Our office is located at 10828 North Lamar Blvd., just south of Kramer Lane, and across the street from Chinatown Center.
Services
Hill's Prescription Diet pet food. Our office recommends vaccinations begin when a pet is 6-8 weeks of age; this best ensures prevention against serious illness, including parvo. Spaying (female) or neutering (male) an animal can occur anytime after the pet has reached 4 months of age. These surgical procedures not only prevent aggressive behavior, spraying, and future medical issues, but also help to control the pet population.

This vet is not a friendly person! I'm surprised by how many positive reviews there are. On both of my visits the vet was incredibly moody, with terrible bedside manners. He was both unfriendly and condescending to follow up questions during both my visits. That said, the vet techs were very friendly and kind, they did a wonderful job, I hope in the future they get the opportunity to work for a friendlier veterinarian.

I had a minor emergency with our pup and this clinic was able to fit us in within the hour. Staff were very friendly, very inquisitive of our dog's history and symptoms to really diagnose the problem.
Thankfully the situation wasn't too dire. Our dog was back in regular spirits by the next day--just like Dr. Gianfranco had anticipated. He also recommend some ways to help prevent the situation in the future.

I met Dr. Spellman for the first time today when we took in our teen kittens to get fixed and have their first shots. What a wonderful breath of fresh air to meet such an experienced veterinarian who is also so practical and caring. The care for our kittens was excellent and the cost was reasonable compared to so many clinics around here. I highly recommend this vet clinic for anyone who needs great care for your animals. Vets like this are so few and far between anymore!

The vet is a very likeable gentleman and his assistants are friendly and patient as well. He seems to have our puppy's best interests at heart over making a quick buck and is very good at explaining the pros and cons of various decisions and then leaving us to make the decision that is best for our risk factors and finances.

I was in need of a new vet (I didn't like how my previous one handled my cat) and happened upon North Lamar Vet Clinic. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the Doc was knowledgeable and was able to quickly diagnose and treat my cat. I will definitely be going back for all of my pets needs.

Have visited twice with our 2 months old pup, and the staffs are great with phone call reminders! The vet is professional and funny! We have to fly with the pup in a month, and he made sure to make time for our pup to get all of her parvo vaccinations! Great experience and will continue going back with all future appointments!
