Preventive care

Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.

Dr. Mark and his team are an incredible group of kind, innovative individuals that go above and beyond. We’re very thankful for the care we received for our dog, Bruce. Big thank you to Barry and Cody for helping us so much.

Mark did a TPLO procedure on my 9 year old Beagle on March 27, 2025. I dropped him off at 8am and picked him up about 3:30pm in Beeville. I was nervous about the recovery process after a lot of internet research and YouTube videos. The recovery process was not near as bad as what I expected. He was able to walk on three legs the same day. After a couple of days, he was already putting slight weight on the leg. After about 10 days, I was already taking him on real short walks in my neighborhood. We are at 5 weeks now and there is no perceptible limp when I take him on his daily walks. Now, he’s a 9 year old Beagle, so he’s not zipping around the neighborhood at high speeds, but he will trot at a pretty good pace on his walks and there is no longer any limp that I can detect. I am still trying to keep him from getting too excited and running around as I’m sure the bone is still healing (and I don’t want him blowing out his other knee ligament…lol), but the whole process has been amazing. This type of surgery is not cheap, but it was worth it, especially given the results I’ve seen. So I can recommend Mark for this type of procedure. I just hope I don’t have to see him again for the right leg. 😀

It was hard for me to find a clinic I felt like I could trust, but after my first visit at Dr. Mark's, I knew immediately they were going to be good to us. My oldest baby had a fractured pelvis and needed surgery just 2 weeks before Christmas. Thanks to the staff at Dr. Mark's, this was my Jackie on Christmas morning. Whether it's surgery or just flea medicine my babies were needing, they provided the best care and experience.

So thankful for this vet clinic! Our 12 year old girl had bone cancer & they had to amputate her leg! They were so good to her! Megan always made sure to keep me updated with pics & videos. Anytime I have a question she’s always there for me! Highly recommend to everyone.

Was the only vet that listened to me about what procedure my dog needed. Gave me a few options on how we could move forward. My girl was well taken care of in every way instead of 2 other vets, just throwing medication at us and sending us on our way.
