Hearthstone Animal Hospital is now under new and excellent management. Dr. Steven Pelton is the owner and veterinarian. My cats have been under Dr. Pelton's care for about 6 years now. He was previously the Medical Director at the VCA Spring Branch Animal Hospital. I initially sought out his help when one of my cats was diagnosed with symptoms of FIV. Dr. Pelton was the first veterinarian I could find who was willing to work with me to help Squeaky live out the remainder of his life in the best possible health given his condition. Subsequently, two of my other cats were diagnosed with renal failure in their old age. There again, Dr. Pelton was willing to do extra research on the new medications that were being introduced at the time and to work with me in trying some of those medications in a balanced regiment of diet and supplements to improve the quality of life for my cats. Even with advanced renal failure, they continued to live good quality lives for several more years each. When one of my other cats was diagnosed with fibro sarcoma, a fast growing form of cancer, Dr. Pelton didn't hesitate to refer me to the finest advanced animal oncology unit in the area, the Gulf Coast Specialty Clinic. After his referral and their amazing help, this cat is now into his second year of remission with all good hope for future good health and absence from cancer. I drive one and a half hours in congested Houston traffic to Dr. Pelton's office. I wouldn't consider going to any other vet. He and his excellent staff get 5 stars and then an extra 5 for all the kindness and consideration they give to their clients.
Pros: Everything
Cons: Nothing
