Westcreek Animal Clinic

I don't do it very often. He put on about 20 pound while he was there. I gave him away, and the people starved him, and he still looked like a skeleton when I took him up there. Everybody was feeding him.

When I started working there I use them and when I left then I would use the vet that I worked for. I've been using them for 20 years.

He is doing good. I used to work for them, I can’t really tell you no. I do not work for them now, I have been retired for over 5 years. I did not get a discount. When I started working there I used them and then when I left, I used the vet that I worked for. When he pi**ed me off, that’s where I would take them, so I have been using them for over 20 years.

We have been using Dr. Hendon for years.  He is very knowledgeable and takes time to explain things to us.   

 When my Belgian Malinois was sick a couple of years ago we went to multiple Vets that diagnosed him with growing pains, hip dysplasia, something in his intestine, etc.  Dr. Hendon was able to determine that he had myasthenia gravis and saved his life.  Today with the help of his medicine, he is an active and healthy 3 year old dog.  

I wouldn't trust anybody else with my dogs.

For the last 20 years I enjoyed Dr. Gumfory's and Dr. Hendon's services. They took care of the dogs in our care both as fosters and family members. Both vets are very knowledgeable and I tested their skills thoroughly. They worked on everything including routine puppy visits, mesoesophagus, distemper, respiratory infections, bites, gashes, scratches, rashes, sores, spays, neuters, ear wrapping, dietary questions and behavior issues. Our pets/fosters included cats, ferrets, and dogs (mutts, C*** Hounds, Rottweiler, Pitt Bull, Beagle, Pointer, Sheltie, Dobermans and many Basenjis). All of my pets/fosters respond favorably to the vets and their staff and a few really enjoy visiting. This point is a major compliment as Basenjis can be extremely irritable. When my foster Basenji came down with distemper Dr. Hendon went out of his way to save him. He gave us his cell number and was available constantly for our questions. Dr. Gumfory is passionate regarding our Dobermans and I love how he treats them. Both the vets are very patient as is their staff. The majority recognize us when we enter the office and usually when I call. The vets work well with rescue groups. Office visits are obtained pretty promptly and the staff always gets us into the office in emergencies. Dr. Gumfory can even discuss different diets (like the raw food diet). I do not know if they provide chiropractic services. This vet clinic is better than any other clinic I've gone to, especially considering their price comparison. Include the staff and doctor's personalities and genuine concern for their patients and this vet is the best choice in the area.

These people are the best in town as far as I'm concerned. I started going to them on a friend's recommendation in early 2012; I always see Dr. Gumfory, but I'm sure all the doctors are just as great.. SInce then, they have taken care of my 2 fuzzy kids as if they were their own, also treating me with empathy and compassion. They recently cared for my little male dog, working tenaciously until a diagnosis was found for his illness. When the time came for me to make a decision about his life, they were supportive and wonderful, crying with me and hugging us both. I am now dealing with the illness of the other dog, and I know they will be there to help her through it as well as to support me.

They took care of my dog's issue really quick. They did pretty good work.

They are taking care of my dogs for about 10 years. I like their doctor. He would talk to me. He explains things to me and if he does not know of anything he will find out and will call me back and talk to me. His staff all know me, and when I walk in they would say hello trouble and I would just start laughing. They are good in everything. I would say that if I have never had a vet I am going to him.

All interactions have been excellent.

I took him home, and within a few hours, he started to refuse water at this point. I went and bought some Pedialyte, and began giving him 6cc's every 30 minutes. He threw up a few more times, and seemed extremely lethargic. I figured, he was tired, from not eating. At 2:00 am, he shot up and went to the back door, and as I'm walking behind him, he expelled a moderate amount of blood. No feces, just a pool of blood. I quickly let him outside, as he was still trying to get out. I went out with him, and he went to yard and layed down for a minute. I brought him back in, and he seemed to feel a little better. He drank some water on his own, though he again threw it up. He still wasn't dehydrated at this point, so I assumed that maybe the Vet was right about him possibly having a virus, as you can have bloody stool with Parvo - though that was the first time in 4 days he had actually and quot;defecatedand quot;. I do know as well (from experience), that with Parvo, there is a HORRIBLE smell with their waste. However, I noticed that the smell of the blood he expelled smelled somewhat sweet and irony, almost like hamburger meat blood. Not at all foul, as you'd expect with Parvo. But again, he seemed to be a little more alert, so I didn't panic at this point - which, I should have. By 6:30am, he has gone into shock, and was in respiratory failure. He was dead within a few minutes.

Had they done the barium, they would have found the bowel obstruction that ultimately ruptured his colon, and killed him. Had they just told me, and quot;we're closing, we don't have time to do a barium, but you need to take him to an emergency hospital,and quot; - or chosen to keep him, instead of sending him home - or just given an inkling of a suspicion he might have a life-threatening condition - he might just be alive. But he's not. I took his body to another animal hospital, and they offered to send it to Aand M for necropsy. It was comforting to know he DIDN'T have Parvo, as my other puppy would have been at risk. But disheartening to know that his death could have been prevented.

They got along really well. The experience fine.

I have always had a positive experience there. They are always good and friendly. The veterinarian is really gentle with the dog and I don't have anything bad to say about them. We have to take her back as she has some back problems. The price that we paid was even for the medicines. I wouldn't be able to comment much on their price, as it was a lot of money for me, but I have no idea as to what others would cost for us. Everything about them is good and I would continue to go there in the future as well.

My animals are my children. They have helped me through illness and loss of my animals. I can't say enough good things about them. I had a very ill cat and they even went so far as to contact Texas Aand M to help in the diagnosis and treatment of him. The cat lived for 18 years as a result of that. My dog loves Dr. Hendon and Dr. Gumphrie. If I take a cat in, the dog gets to go visit everybody at the office as well. They treat every animal and every person that comes in with so much respect. They run a charitable program called "From the heart" where the donations from folks that use the veterinary service go towards the care of cast away animals that are dropped off at their office.

We love the doctor. He is very good. The quality of care provided is good.

He is better now and I was very happy with the place. I have had them for years. They are not cheap, but you get what you pay for. I think they are professional and honest about whatever problems come about. They are so good with the animals and really answer your questions.

These folks took extra-careful care of our dogs. Both had physical conditions which made it difficult to pick them up without causing pain, and Dr.Gumfory's staff remembered which dog needed to be handled in which way. We asked that they be bathed on the last day before we picked them up and the dogs were clean and ready when we called ahead before picking them up.

THEY HAVE A WONDERFUL, COMPASSIONATE STAFF. I COULDN'T HAVE A BETTER EXPERIENCE WITH ANY ANIMAL CLINIC.
