Veterinarians near Jarrell, TX

“My pup’s left eye was suddenly swollen shut with lots of green discharge around it, it was a Saturday morning so I called my go-to vet in Belton and they told me we’d have to wait in person 3.5-4hrs. No putting names down or call backs etc. They didn’t see any need for urgency, so I hung up with them and called around and Jarrell Animal Hospital answered. They put me on hold to ask the doc if my dog could be seen same day and the doc said bring her in now we’ll see her right away. The facility was clean and welcoming. Staff was very kind and gentle. Dr. Karidi was very thorough and sweet with my dog after I explained she’s very skittish and leery around men. Not knowing what the cause could be, they checked for an ulcer in the eye and treated with a steroid and antibiotic. First thing Monday morning both staff and the doctor called and left vm’s to check on her as well as a text. It was easy to call back and get the doctor on the phone directly. Thankfully the treatment was a success and she’s almost fully healed and back to her normal self. Also, in alllll the vets and animal hospitals I’ve taken my pets to in the last 20+yrs none have ever put a cute bandana on my dogs. Only at groomers. I thought that was a super sweet touch to a great visit. No doubt we will return here for her routine annual care.”

“Good veterinarians and friendly professional staff. Highly recommend the reproductive specialists.
Update: I just walked though an end of life experience with a very special horse. The staff was thorough, honest, and professional. The care, concern, and compassionate shown was exceptional. And I am extremely
Grateful for the compassion and support given by Dr. Mary who had worked with my mare previously in reproductive care. So awesome that she cared beyond the realm of her responsibility. All the staff were amazing. Thank you for your care through this difficult time.”

“This is the best veterinarian experience I've ever had. My girl Australian Cattle Dog is older and Dr Michelle was so thorough and thoughtful to our needs. I love my dog so much and it's wonderful to experience such compassion from the vet. Wonderful!”

“My first experience with Animal Medical of Salado was about five years ago when my oldest dog became sick during the weekend. All other vets were closed, and I found them by accident. I don't live near the clinic, so it was a bit of a haul to get there. Unfortunately, the veterinarian wasn't going to make it in time so the tech on her own called another clinic and worked out a deal so my dog could be seen. That was the day I found out my oldest had congestive heart failure. I transferred my animals to AMOS when their former vet became an assembly line of uncaring vets and techs that couldn't be bothered. I remembered how the tech at AMOS went above and beyond to set something up so I could start treatment for my dog.

Ever since I have been taking my three dogs and cat for anything and everything they need. I am not always the easiest person to deal with as my animals mean a lot to me so I can come off at times as a bit annoyed or demanding when they’re in pain. Dr. Santos and her staff [they have changed throughout the years] have always treated my animals and myself very well. Never judging when one of my dogs is nervous, or for my endless questions because I need to understand what is happening fully.

I had to put down my oldest in June 2024. Even though it was expected as aside from heart failure a tumor had started moving organs. I was allowed to grieve in the room with her for hours. Dr. Miller never rushed me, the techs came and sat with me and shared their stories of times with my dog as they loved her as their own. Unfortunately, now I must face the harsh realization that I will have to make that call sooner or later with my middle dog as he was DX with cancer. I know when I must swallow the pain of losing him to make that call for him, I wouldn't have it done anywhere else.

I have experienced the care of great veterinarians and staff, and I have had the misfortune of meeting badly trained or burnt-out veterinarians and staff. I know people aren’t perfect and at times can make mistakes. When mistakes can lead to animals dying or getting sicker quicker it makes you appreciate clinics like Animal Medical of Salado so much more.”

“First time bringing my dog here after taking her to the ER the night before. They were all very kind & understanding to my situation. I think the pricing was reasonable compared to other clinics I’ve been too & they were very thorough on everything. Also helped with referring me to a less expensive ER in the temple area. Now my dog is doing fantastic & better than before. Thank you.”
