Great first impression. I made an appointment for a meet and greet to establish my dog as a patient. The entire staff I met that morning were friendly and kind. Dr Metzger examined my dog, took his history, and asked questions about his past problems (there are many). They have a Veterinarian that performs acupuncture (impressive). The office is clean. They sell the prescription dog food on premises. I am thankful to have found a caring Veterinarian. P B.2024-12-17 The team at Compassionate are at the top of the Veterinary services you can get in Fredericksburg Texas. Dr Metzer & Dr Fritz are knowledgeable, kind, and compassionate towards your fur friends. Boarding services available. My dog Oskar has had a few stays with Compassionate Care. I would highly recommend using Compassionate Care Veterinary for your animals needs. Dianne M.2024-05-29 We are very pleased with Compassionate Care Veterinary Hospital. Can't say enough good things about Dr. Metzger. He is knowledgeable, thorough, thoughtful and takes the time to explain sometimes complicated problems. We have had many pets over the years, and many veterinarians taking care of them. He is definitely among the best! Also, the staff is friendly and helpful and all seem to truly enjoy their work. Diana C.2021-04-17 Dr. Trish Brannan has been our Veterinarian exclusively for 17 years. Always reliably professional, available and responsive, along with providing exceptional care for her patients. We really appreciate knowing she is always thorough and very willing to take the time to discuss our concerns and answer any questions we might have. Very much a compassionate Veterinarian we hope to have for another 17 years. Mr. & Mrs. F. J. Fogarty Sharon R.2020-11-14 A friend recommended Compassionate care for my German Shepherd pup, they were so caring and made his first vet visit as quick as possible while allowing me to be with him in the outdoor open treatment area. My pup was given his shot, medicine, weighed and nails clipped without hurting him! Professional staff who made me feel confident that my pup is in good hands for the future! Bri S.2020-08-28 I have been taking my new dog to see Dr. John and couldn't be happier. I left my other vet because they didn't call me back on two occasions when my very large dog was suffering from a stroke. I was recommend to Dr. John by a friend and have been more than thrilled with his level of expertise and care. They all work together as a team - and Linda the groomer is terrific. Annette B.2019-10-03 Took great care of my dogs last weekend! Friendly staff and clean facility. Very professional. Will definitely be taking my dogs back here, as well as recommending this business. Kimberly B.2019-03-05 We are new to the area and have been pleased with the grooming services. The staff is pleasant and the dogs come home clean without razor burns, nicks or nails cut too short. The pups and humans all like that. Karen O.2017-08-15
