A Lifesaver for Our Pup – Dr. Carver is Truly One of a Kind!
We got our puppy in 2022, and when she was about nine months old, she started limping off and on. One evening, the limping became worse and constant, so I took her to the emergency vet. They did X-rays and told me she would need surgery, instructing me to keep her as still as possible and call a specialist in the morning.
The next day, I was devastated to learn that the only vet in the DFW area who performed this particular surgery was on vacation for a month—and the procedure would cost $20,000. When I asked what to do in the meantime, I was told to keep my energetic 9-month-old puppy crated and immobile for a month. That didn’t seem like an option.
For three days straight, from sunrise to sunset, I called every vet I could find in Texas and Oklahoma. No one would do the surgery. I reached out to A&M and OSU’s vet schools—A&M couldn’t confirm if they could help without an exam, and the earliest appointment was a month away. OSU couldn’t do it at all. I was running out of options and hope.
Then I found Dr. Carver—our earth angel. Not only was he willing to perform the surgery, but he was genuinely excited to do it, and his enthusiasm was contagious. From the moment we connected, I felt completely at ease, knowing he and his staff would care for our girl like she was their own.
Her surgery was a huge success! Her leg looks slightly different if you look closely, but watching her run, you’d never know she underwent such a major procedure. Since then, we’ve trusted Dr. Carver with all her check-ups, sick visits, and even boarding. She loves it there so much that she never wants to leave!
I will forever be grateful that we found Dr. Carver. He’s not just a vet—he’s a miracle worker who truly cares.
