I have been going to Barton Creek Animal Clinic for nearly 20 years. Dr. Van Winkle is extremely knowledgeable, explains everything very thoroughly, and is extremely kind and caring. She also has expertise in alternative pet health care like acupuncture and Chinese medicine. Dr. Unflat, who has been at the clinic for the last few years, is also very knowledgeable, caring, and an all-around nice guy. He is always willing to take extra time to explain anything and to talk about his experience. The vets often consult with each other, as well as other vets, and also go the extra mile and do research. The staff here is also great, and some have been here almost as long as I have been coming here. Jessica is always helpful in making sure that everything runs smoothly and has often helped me with appointments when scheduling is a challenge, Zach and Rachel are great with my cats, friendly, and always show concern. Other vet techs who have been here in the past have also been fantastic, which I think says a lot about Barton Creek Animal Clinic. I have gone to other clinics (backups in emergencies) over the years, and I always realize how fortunate I am to have BCAC as my primary clinic. I cant recommend them highly enough!!

When in exam room was petting my dog and Dr. Van Winkle snapped to the effect of "there are other patients waiting in line to see me and we can control your dog". Then she was aggressive with my gentle well behaved service dog causing him to jerk around the table to the point she had to let him down. They then muzzled my service dog for the first time in his life! which was totally unnecessary if she would have treated him right. No telling what germs were on the muzzle. My dog sensed her anger and was afraid of her. Van Winkle has anger management issues that completely override all other positive aspects and is unacceptable. People with anger management issues should NOT be vets! even if they are competent in other aspects which she is. Do not take your dog to some woman who can snap in an instant without warning. Now my dog may have fear issues the next time he goes to a vet.

Dr. Van Winkle is magic, and so is her staff at the Barton Creek Animal Clinic. Our cat responded immediately to their tender care. They were kind to see her without an appointment. I was very worried about her yesterday, but now, 24 hours after treatment and medication, she is up and about, and eating breakfast. Im so grateful to the entire Clinic staff, and especially to Dr. Van Winkle, and Im glad they are there. We feel fortunate to have such a wonderful clinic so near. Thank you, Dr. Van Winkle and staff. You are the best!

Dr Unflat and his staff (love Zach!) are always so wonderful and kind to my animals. Great prices too! Dr Unflat is always cognizant of the cost of treatment. Ive been to other vet clinics before that dont talk about costs till it is time for the bill. I was in there quite a bit over the past two years with my 18 year old shepherd mix that passed recently. I never had a problem getting in and they were always so gentle and thorough with her.

I went to Dr. Van Winkle for several years for acupuncture and chiropractic for my dogs before switching to her for all my veterinary needs. I am so happy I made the switch. Dr. VW, Dr. Unflat, Dr. Hughes and all of the staff are wonderful. And like another reviewer posted, prices are very reasonable. 5 stars in my book! Updating my review from last year: Still 5 Stars!

Weve been taking our high maintenance GSP here for 2-3 years. We started going for acupuncture only, but our dog is now a senior and now were regulars here. All the staff is great from the vets to the receptionists. Dr Van Winkle has been always been so sweet to our dog. Hes a nervous dog and everyone treats him so kindly. I highly recommend Barton Creek Animal Clinic.

We have used Barton Creek Animal Clinic for over 33 years! Dr. Van winkle and staff ( Zachary, Jessica, Nellie, and Rachel to name a few) are amazing! We are treated with courtesy, professionalism and kindness mixed with humor every time we come in! Thank you for all 5 of my current critters and all the ones youve helped us with in the past.

Dr. Van Winkle and her staff are wonderful with our furry family members. It is extremely apparent in everything she does that Dr. Van Winkle is as concerned about our pets well being as we are. If you are looking for a veterinarian to care for your pets I highly recommend Barton Creek Animal Clinic.

I take my 17 year old dog and 19 year old cat to Barton Creek, and have ever since I adopted them. Dr. Van Winkle and Dr. Unflat are wonderful vets. I especially appreciate the time they take to explain exactly whats going on with my pets and what all of the treatment options are.

My dog Molly loves everbody. She particularly loves the staff of Barton Creek Animal Clinic.They rate six (6) licks for their kindness and consideration. You don,t have to take my word for it just ask Molly the next time she gets out of the back yard and shows up at your place

Dr. Unflat and the whole staff are wonderful! They take such good care of my fur babies and are very straight forward. They do not sell you on things you do not need. This is a trustworthy, professional establishment that gets to know you and your pets on a personal level.

Dr VanWinkle and her staff have been wonderful with my newly adopted Malti poo Sydney Dooner Mcpoodle. She is kind and gentle.She is kind and patient with me too. Sydney Dooner appears to be responding to the acupuncture. Elaine Filion

Ive been taking my cats (and the one dog I had for a short time) here for years and with constant great results. I always leave feeling confident that we found a great solution to whatever problem I come in with.

Knowledgeable and reasonably priced. Some vets prescribe expensive testing before making a diagnosis, but this clinic doesnt have than mindset. Weve switched all or our business to this vet.
