I am so thankful for this veterinary hospital. We actually went here four years ago to get a 2nd opinion re: our Weimaraner who at the time had a disk problem in his back. We think so much of the doctors and staff here that ever since then Travis Country has been our primary Vet. Several years later, our Weim (7 years old) tore his ACL playing ball. The staff was caring and knowledgeable, but most importantly they thoroughly explained our options, the differences in them, what to expect in terms of recovery, cost, next steps, etc. The doctor shared a sample video and diagram of the surgery so we could see how it is done. By surgery day, we felt like experts ourselves. We followed all the after surgery instructions and our dog recovered 100%. A year later, his other knee tore, which isn’t uncommon and the 2nd surgery went just like the 1st. They even gave us a frequent knee customer discount on surgery 2, ha! The Weim breed is interesting; they have a nervous, anxious energy (at least mine does). Today, when our dog sees us drive up, he is both calm and excited. I can tell he feels safe and knows that everyone inside that building loves him. There are a few staff members there that he absolutely can’t get enough of, you can tell he is totally enjoying the simple check up and even getting his nails clipped! These folks are animal whisperers; my family is devoted to this dog-loving Vet. I highly recommend them.

There is not enough good I can say about this vet. I absolutely love them. They are far and away the best animal care our cats have received in Austin. The two times we went were very difficult (otherwise I might not feel so confident reviewing them). Our sweet cat was on his last legs. We had been to another vet several times and simply felt they werent helping our cat and werent being direct with us. (However, they did not forget to charge us!) We brought our terminally sick cat to Travis Country and our cat (who at that point had two days left to live) was purring in their arms. One tech danced his sick little body around the room and sang to him. When it was time to say goodbye to him, they were so loving, patient, and understanding. Then, today, we got a sympathy card with a personal note. Ill never go to another vet. If we leave Austin, we may drive or fly to bring our pets to these folks. I cannot recommend them enough.

I am very glad that I found Travis Country Veterinary Hospital. Over the last three years they have taken great care of our three dogs and our cat. All the of the Doctors are very good with our animals and I trust them. Two years ago one of the Doctors did an ACL repair on our oldest dog, we were more than a little freaked about the sedation and safety of our dog. The Doctor reassured us that she would be fine and then performed an amazing surgery. Now our 14 year old dog runs like the wind. Great job, truly you can trust your animals to everyone at Travis Country Veterinary Hospital. The Techs are awesome there and very knowledgeable. All in all a great place to go.

I really like this vet. At first I was unsure because its really small and the building is really old and kind of dumpy looking, but I board my pets there a lot and the staff always write up detailed reports on how my pets did. The boarding prices are reasonable too. When my dog Huck had an injury, I saw Dr Murphree and I really liked her because she spent a lot of time with Huck on the floor just getting to know him and talking to him before she started his exam. I really liked that about her. My sister also takes her cats here, and she likes this vet a lot too. Theyre not the prettiest building, but they do good work!

Best vet in town. They go above and beyond. Ill never forget when my bullmastiffs had babies (5 survived) and I took them in for first shots, worming, etc. They literally closed down for two hours just to accommodate my babies and to make sure there were no sick dogs around when I brought them in. These were 20 pound 6 week old puppies so still a log of dog. They spent time with every single one of them and thoroughly examined everyone of them (a lot of play time too, LOL). They have taken care of all my animals now for at least 15 years. Thank you Lauren!!!! And everyone else!

We are Grateful to have found such genuine animal protectors & healers! Our dog Hank was a victim of an unprovoked dog fight,which ended badly for Hank. He was summoned to a 10 day quarantine at the pound! I scurried to find a same day safe kennel under vet supervision as an alternative to doggy jail. Every other clinic I called shut out Hank, until I reached these God send folks! The staff welcomed Hank happily & assured he will be loved on &walked during his 10 day stay. They welcomed us back for visits any time! Simply the Best & we will be coming here for care from now on!

Very knowledgeable and caring staff who is willing to talk through everything with you, especially when making a critical decision. We are new to the area and found them to be very affordable especially in comparison to other vets in the area. One of our dogs has been deathly ill and went through surgery, and Travis Country has taken such good care of her throughout the process. They even wanted to hear updates. Sometimes you learn you have a good vet by going through a difficult situation with your pet, and thats what we did. Check them out, you wont regret it.

My puppy was seriously injured when he was hit by a car. We had just moved to Houston but had been to Travis Country for our previous pet needs. We decided to make the 3 hour drive to have the surgery done at Travis Country. Dr. Clinton did an amazing job. My pup is healing much quicker than expected. Our vet here has commented on what a great job he did based on the x-rays. Dr. Clinton continues to follow up with us to make sure all is well. We will definitely continue to go to Travis Country when we need to, and, hopefully, when we move back to Austin.

Ive been going to these guys for years, and Ive always felt theyve been truthful. On many occasions, they have advised me in the best interest of the pet, not in spending extra money on more tests or operations. All the doctors are thorough. The owner (Dr. Trlica) is old school - a style that either agrees with you or it doesnt. Dr. John and Dr. Buys are both very patient.

Helped me save my baby. In conjunction with the emergency vet on Frontier drive, the ladies got the tests we needed to confirm Addisons disease. He went into and Addisonian crisis Tuesday night, and I thought I would lose him. We thought maybe anaphylaxis or toxicity and together got to the bottom of it before it took my boy.

We have been with these guys for a while. They have seen us through new adoptions through helping us say good bye. The staff is always caring and supportive. I have seen Dr. Corky, Dr. Byers and Dr. Dietz. We love them all! Cant say enough good things or recommend them enough. Laura Rafferty
