What your pet needs . . .
What your pet wants . . .
Who cares?
WE DO!
Our Philosophy
We at the Chastain Veterinary Medical Group feel it is
our duty
to provide the quality veterinary health care that our pets
need,
the warmth and gentleness that our pets want,
and the understanding and flexibility that a family must
have
whilst looking after their pet.
OUR COMMITMENT
Our main goals are the prevention of preventable
pet illness, maintenance of our pets in good health, and
the creation of a long
lasting
friendship with the pet's family.

Wellness Programs
Prevention is not only less stressful, but often also less
expensive in the long run, as compared to crisis medicine
or emergency intervention.
It’s best to beat the little nasties before they get too
big!
 PREVENTION is
our strongest weapon in the fight against illness.
So, on each visit, we’ll check your pet from north of its
nose to south of its “oops!” We’ll inspect everything from
temperature
to body weight and from heart to hips. We’ll observe your
pet's demeanor, listen to it's breathing, and try
our darndest to
identify
any
of those little peculiarities that could turn into
serious problems later on. We'll identify 'em and we'll
beat 'em if we possibly can.
Are we there when you need us?
Very definitely! Serious pet health problems often seem to
occur when we least expect them. That's when you
may need us the
most.
Our emergency advice service is available around the clock
to help make you and your pet feel better. Since we are partners
in the Dallas
Animal Emergency Clinic, you can be sure that
continuity of care will be maintained, whether your pet is
seen for routine care at either our Meadow Brook
facility or our Preston Road facility.
Are we as good as you need us to be?
Yes we are! We see it as our duty to provide the finest veterinary
health care that we are capable of delivering. Our entire
staff,
from Receptionists to Veterinary Nurses and from the Office
Manager
to Pet Bathers,
are all
trained and re-trained continuously to the highest standards
of veterinary medical care. We do this so that everyone on
staff will be familiar with all the treatments and technologies
we have available to respond to your pets needs and to detect
potential health problems.
And speaking of technology,
we’re proud that each of our facilities
is fully
equipped
with
access to all the items needed for modern small animal
veterinary health care - including such things as in-house
blood chemistry equipment for rapid, on-the-spot diagnosis,
surgical
lasers
for speedier surgery and a faster recovery, color
Doppler ultrasound, video ear-imaging, endoscopy, and
laparoscopy for minimally invasive surgery.
When necessary, thanks to
the miracle of the internet, we can transmit digital
ultrasound and x-ray images to
board-certified
veterinary specialist almost anywhere in the world.
This helps us get the most out of medical imaging
equipment. We’ve also developed close
working relationships with the area’s best veterinary dermatologists,
internists, neurologists, ophthalmologists, oncologist, and
surgeons at the Veterinary Referral Center of North Texas
to ensure that your pet always has access to optimum care.
One of our facilities, Preston Road Animal Hospital, has
been certified by the American
Animal Hospital Association longer than any other existing veterinary facility in the
Dallas-Fort Worth area. Since 1963, in fact! Our length of
service to the Metroplex is something we are very proud of
however, our primary concern is pet health care right now
and well into the future.
Before you do go, spare a minute to browse through our web
pages and get to know us a little better. We really are what
we say we are and we really will care for your little friend
– whatever it may be!
