About Us

About Alamo Dog & Cat Hospital, a san Antonio veterinarian practice

Founded in 1922, Alamo Dog & Cat Hospital is Texas’s oldest small animal veterinarian practice.

It originally started as a full service animal hospital, also offering ambulance service and all grooming and pet needs. Dr. U.E. Marney, Drs. Parker, Brown, and Culpepper operated the practice until 1971, when Dr. Eric Lange and Dr. Ronald Orrell took over. Dr. Mark E. LaBrie has owned and operated the hospital since 1984. The dog and cat hospital remained in the same location it was founded in until May 2004, when a new facility was built behind the old building.

Three times I have had to use the vets ER. It’s reassuring that the hospital is open 24/7. Because we use Quakertown vets for regular care, vaccines and well checkups we are not charged the ER fees. My older lab was recently found to have heart failure. Due to the vet finding it when he was there for another reason, led to Alex getting early treatment. They have every specialist one could need. Frosty our German shepherd puppy was found to have a GI infection and treated. I can always get an appointment fairly quickly. The staff are great, understanding, very competent and knowledgeable. They take the time to care for my boys and answer my questions so I can make an educated informed decision caring for them.
Never had a bad experience with QVC. They saved my little girl’s life a few years ago. All of the staff is so kind, I love that I’m always able to reach them-you have no idea how important communication is to me since I’ve had bad experiences elsewhere. Very happy here. Wouldn’t go anywhere else.
3 different vets in the area could not diagnosis my dogs symptoms, she had a really bad and deep cough, that they all kept giving me different pills that did not work, and said it was her heart. I finally went to a real hospital, they ultra sound her heart and said there was nothing wrong with it. said it was a tracheal collapse, gave me medicine to give her, and finally no more cough. I spent over a thousand dollars between those other 3.
