Thrive Pet Healthcare - The Heights

I used to go to thrive when it was at Petco but when they were all turned into vetco’s, out of laziness, I just kept going to the same place. But for too long I felt like my concerns were never actually addressed, the vet was condescending and the price was not affordable. I finally switched back to thrive when I saw their heights location, and I really wish I’d done it sooner! All the concerns I had were actually symptoms of a way bigger issue, and the vets here have been so caring and on top of everything. We now come here often but my scared dog is does not freak out and try to run away like she has at all other vets. They even have a pup cup bar for pets!

Dr. Kevin was incredibly helpful with my cats ruptured anal gland. He listened to all my concerns and was never condescending and never made me feel like I didn’t know what was I talking about. He did a day off sedation to clean everything out and was very transparent with everything going on with her. She had a probably mass that he suggested we wait to send samples out to pathology so that I didn’t spend more money for something that wasn’t a confirmed issue yet. I was quoted more than what I actually paid so there was no sticker shock on the bill for my visit. I will definitely be making this my cats regular clinic.

I used to go to the Katy/Gaston location, but recently moved into town. I have to say that THIS location (19th St. The Heights) is Countless times better, friendlier, more helpful, thoughtful, cleaner, and everything you’d want in a Vet Clinic to care for your pets!! Everyone I’ve met is just incredible, but Katie & Niesha are absolutely irreplaceable! In a world that’s increasingly become difficult to find employees that care for your customers with complete authentic service, these two really prove it can be done!!! Best Vet Office EVER!

I can’t recommend Thrive enough 🌟 Hands down best vet in Houston. I have been taking my pug since he was 3M. he is now 10yrs old and the service and attention has not changed at all. Every time, my pug, and now cat, are treated with love and compassion. They treat my pets wholly and throughly. Today I had Dr Doucet and Sierra. Dream team! I have had them on multiple occasions. They always take the time to listen to my concerns and even recommend additional remedies that they also do on their own pets. If you want a place where they treat you with kindness and you feel welcomed every time look no further. Special shout out to the front desk that took a cute Polaroid of us for the sweet pumpkin patch 🎃

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Thrive in the Heights. The entire team takes such great care of Ronnie and they are compassionate, attentive, and always take the time to answer my questions thoroughly. I also love the community events they host, especially the Valentine’s Day and Halloween events, which were both thoughtfully planned and so much fun. It truly shows how much they care about their clients and the community, and my dog and I are so grateful to have found them.
