What Our Clients Say About Us

Sphynx cat Kai Scott, who was treated by the SATH Soft Tissue Surgery Department at Texas A&M, lays in his bed.

“I never expected so much compassion when it
comes to animal care. From the person at the
front desk to the assistant who checked us in
and the doctor who met with us, it was the
best possible care we could have received.”

Kaylin Scott
whose Sphynx, Kai, was treated by  
the SATH Soft Tissue Surgery Service

Rooster, a brown quarter horse, stands with his owners Rachel Denton and Ann Denton, and veterinary surgeon Dr. Dustin Major in the Texas A&M Large Animal Teaching Hospital

“He’s thriving and gets to live as a normal
horse now, which blows my mind. I’m so
grateful to everybody at Texas A&M who
was part of his healing journey.”

Rachel Denton
whose quarter horse Rooster was
treated for a baseball-sized lump in
his neck by LATH surgeons 

Dr. Kelley Thieman and Dr. Braiden Blatt work with a bulldog patient at the Texas A&M Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital.

“(Participating in the ‘Better Breathing’ clinical
trial) is about making sure they can breathe and
move comfortably for as long as possible. They
still look like bulldogs; they just look like healthy
bulldogs.”

Felicia Beswick
owner of Jax and Tun, who lost
a combined 21 pounds in the trial
