Scammy place, with pretty bad service Set up for a Spay and blood work that was way over priced to begin with. They tried to add in heartworm treatment and other medication that I had already paid for a month ago at this clinic. They call 4 hours later saying the blood test came back abnormal, and they can run another one but would have to delay the spay. Later that afternoon I pick my dog back up and they say the "results arent ready", and THEN they call 30 minutes later saying the results were normal, but dont give any details. 250$ and a whole day for them to run two tests.

This place preys on older customers and overcharges because they know some people will pay it. Additionally my dog was extremely thirsty when she got home, which leads me to believe they stuck her in a cage all day and ignored her. UPDATE- the clinic called me harassing me via voicemail about this review, as well as a stellar response on here. Very professional. They talked to my wife for 5 minutes and call it extensive discussion (I was standing right next to her when they called) In the end I am glad the surgery wasn't performed, I don't want my pup in these peoples hands ever again.

My dog had quit eating, he was getting very thin. He was diagnosed with diabetes. Came home with insulin shots. Next day he was worse. Had to take him to MIDLOTHIAN EMERGENCY CLINIC. There he was diagnosed with a tumor on his spleen & mucus in his gall bladder. He was in a lot of pain. It was recommended we put him down. We didn't want him to suffer. We did. I cried a river. He was 12. None of the findings were the fault of WAXAHACHIE VETERINARY HOSPITAL. I hold no ill feelings toward them. We just got 2 Schnoodle Pups and will go back.

They always show my Coco so much love. Shot prices are reasonable. However, Coco needed dental work at one time and I found a better price elsewhere for the same procedure. WAX Vet my go to for annual shots!

This place is awful and their customer service needs help. I called on a Monday morning frantic as my elderly dog had fallen trying to jump onto my bed. I explained to the person who answered the phone the situation that he fell and I felt he either broke his leg or dislocated his hip. The person whom answered said the soonest they could see me was the following Monday 7 DAYS away. I asked if there was a local pet hospital she could recommend and she rattled off a name.

I asked if she had the number and she said no and hung up the phone. I will never bring my pets here. This town has grown and their overwhelmed practice needs to have some passion about pet emergencies.
