Ho-hum – In my opinion, there is a serious lack of communication at Spangler Animal Clinic. I dropped my cat off one morning for his shots and the lady at the front desk was friendly enough and assured me the vet would give him a full exam as well as his needed vaccines. I went back to pick him up a couple of hours later. When I arrived, the lady at the front desk (the same lady who helped me 2 hours before) had no idea who I was or what was going on. She handed over my cat, mentioned nothing about how the exam went or any r... read more

Business response:

Once again, I dropped the ball on this one. I was not aware of the conversation telling the client that he would not have to bring the pet back for more vaccs. This was a new receptionist. No excuse. The client was not told what I had told the receptionist to tell him. I apologize. Nan, Practice Manager.

Old School Vet – Sam has done a great job in taking care of my two kittens (SPCA specials - 2 for one sale). I like his old fashioned demeanor and his no nonsense style. Mark Sheffield

Great Staff !!!!! – I had just moved to Austin when my 16 yr old cat suddenly lost weight and became listless. I called around to several offices to see when they could see Gato and what they would recommend for her. Dr. Spangler's office staff was the most courteous and helpful. My husband was the one who took Gato in (twice) so I could stay home with our 6 month old daugher and avoid making a scene in the office by crying. Unfortuately, Gato did not make it. She was just too old...which broke my heart. I wanted to let ever... read more

Doctor with BIG heart – My cat was having severe trouble urinating. My car was in the shop and I had no transportation, so I took the bus to Petsmart at Balcones Woods Dr. and talked to the vet there for a bit. She refused to recommend any kind of food or give any help at all without me bringing my cat in for sedation and urinalisys etc. I was also told the cat would be dead in 48 hours. Of course I left there very upset. I was able to get a ride from a friend later that night to Spangler Animal Clinic. Even though it was mo... read more

Downhome service and hospitality – I'm fairly new to Austin, and haven't found a family vet for my 3 pit bulls...until yesterday. I had an emergency situation with my male, and after checking CitySearch for a Vet - I chose to take him to Dr. Spangler #1. because of his rating and #2. his office is located only about 1 mile from my house. I was not expecting to find someone whom I would be comfortable calling My Vetbut I did! Dr. Spangler, Jamie and the rest of the staff did everything they could to help my dog despite him no... read more

Great Vet, Odd Scheduling Procedures – The vet is a good "old-fashioned" vet who is conservative in his approach, which I like a lot. He doesn't say, "Well, your dog will be fine, but lets order a bunch of tests anyway." Rather, he uses good old-fashioned smarts to diagnose and treat, but orders tests, etc when appropriate. It kind of ticks me off that, when there's not another client around, you have to schedule a shot for the next day. I mean, it's a maximum of 5 minutes to give a shot, right?
