About Richmond Avenue Animal Hospital
Richmond Avenue Animal Hospital is an AAHA-accredited, Fear Free certified practice on Richmond Avenue near Weslayan, serving Upper Kirby, Greenway, River Oaks, West University and Bellaire. AAHA accreditation means the hospital is inspected against several hundred standards covering anaesthesia, surgery, pain management and record-keeping, a distinction fewer than one in six US practices hold. Four veterinarians, Drs. Wilkie, Gallagher, DeWees and McCaw, see dogs and cats on weekdays from 7am to 6pm and Saturday mornings. Early weekday drop-offs are offered, and the hospital asks clients to book ahead for Saturdays. Services span wellness, dentistry, surgery, ultrasound and digital radiology, behaviour and nutrition advice, boarding, grooming and end-of-life care. New clients get $50 off a first exam with Dr. McCaw. The hospital also trains the next generation, hosting veterinary students and externs, and runs an Angel Fund that pays for essential treatment when an owner cannot. Appointments and records are handled through the PetDesk app.
