Pets First Veterinary Center

Dr. Sanders was EXCEPTIONAL. My wife and I have been taking our lovely pet ever since we moved to San Antonio (2 years) and the care provided by Dr. Sanders and the team in the clinic has ALWAYS been above expectations.
This very weekend (Saturday) we took a sudden visit to the clinic as we found something abnormal on our pet, we walked in the clinic and despite the fact that we did not have an appointment and they were about to close Dr. Sanders and her team welcomed our pet and us to be seen. This speak volumes to us as Dr Sanders did not hesitate to see our beloved pet despite the late hour and sudden appearance without appointment.
I HIGHLY recommend this place, they genuinely care for you and your pet!

I visit my folks in San Antonio periodically and was on a recent visit when my little male yorkie became gravely ill. I called a couple of places who had me come in hours later. When I called Pets First, they said to come in right away which is what I needed. The place is very nice with an open feel, very clean and no dog smells. Staff was nice and helpful. Dr. Gonzales saw my yorkie, gave advice and medications that helped him. I was appreciative for their immediate attention and care. When I arrived back to Austin I needed paperwork faxed to my pet insurance which they did promptly. I was impressed with them from beginning to end and will use them as my vet on my trips there. I highly recommend this vet clinic!

I could never say enough good things about Dr. Meadows and Pets First. They have been my vet’s office for 17 years now and I feel like they are extended family to me and my pets. Dr. Meadows always takes the time to really talk to you and make you feel like a part of the process and not just another nameless client.
His staff is amazing. They consoled me when I was hysterically crying when my cat unexpectedly died in the office (she had cancer). They are always quick with answers to any questions and you can tell they love animals by the way they deal with clients’ pets, as well as the office cats that live there. Those cats have baskets with towels in them and they lounge around in them like royalty, which is always fun to watch when you’re waiting to be seen.
I second the comment from the other reviewer about dental discount month. It’s Feb. and Sept. and my mom saved a fortune on her dog’s teeth cleaning. I highly recommend Pets First to anyone.

Pets First has been awesome both to me and my animals on every single visit and in between.
First, they have great hours. The open at 7am and allow drop off for later appointments and they are open until 2pm on Saturdays.
I have been speaking to the Vet in a private room and exited to pick up my animal and have seen a desk staff sitting calmly with my animal in her lap, petting him gently and kissing his head. The staff is really just so sweet to the animals in every way, including checking in on the animal at any time that a pet parent calls.
The place is super clean. Animal Planet is always on TV and there is a cute nook with park benches and painted walls of murals with dogs and cats (photo). There is also a nice selection of pet parent magazines to read if you are waiting.
I just picked up our dog today (he is doing fine thanks) and am as pleased as always.
Appointments fill quickly during Dental Month (Feb.) so make your appointments early.
Pets First also offers boarding and grooming.
