But it made me realize our current vet closes at 5 and I have no plan for the next time this happens at 7pm on a Tuesday. Who do you all use? Ideally somewhere with later hours and walk ins.

We had an emergency with our dog a few months back around 8pm and they saw us right away. The staff was so compassionate. Their website is https://www.trueanimalvet.com/.
Do not feed the deer. Please.
- Sep 21, 2026, 2:36 PM#3We use The Village Vet at Sterling Ridge. They've been voted Best of The Woodlands for years, so you know they are reliable. We had a scare with our cat and they were fantastic and took the time to explain everything. They also offer payment plans which helps take some of the stress out of it. Worth the drive for that peace of mind.
Cheaper taxes, longer drive.
- Sep 21, 2026, 3:08 PM#4My lab also eats everything (why are they like this). We go to Animal Clinics of the Woodlands in Alden Bridge. They have been there for over 20 years and are just so experienced. Dr. Brannon has been our vet forever. They even have an app where you can book appointments which is handy.
