About

Wilkinson Veterinary Clinic – For over 40 years, our team has been providing the highest quality of veterinary medicine to South Texas. From Corpus Christi to Laredo, from San Antonio to Brownsville, we regularly out shine our competition.

We have an almost purely mixed animal practice. We routinely work with horses, cattle, cats, dogs, sheep, goats, pigs, deer, various types of exotic game, and even pocket pets. We have also been known to occasionally work with birds and reptiles. Whatever you needs are we can help.

Core Values

Faith and Family – God is the reason for our success. We run our business based on principles of the gospel and believe in being ethical, honest, moral, virtuous, charitable, kind, empathetic, respectful, and loving. We believe families, mothers, fathers, and children are special and important. We consider each other family and have each other’s back.

Respectful Communication – We believe, while the roles that we fill may be different, our value is equal and as such everyone deserves respect. We understand the value of clear communication and actively make an effort to understand what is communicated. We give people the benefit of the doubt. The focus of interoffice communication should be purpose-oriented of our goals rather than detail-oriented of our failures.

Quality – We believe consistent quality over quantity is our “secret sauce.” To provide the highest quality medicine, we believe in constantly learning and improving ourselves. We do not settle. We expect the best of ourselves, offer the best to our clients, and give the best to our patients.

Responsibility and Accountability – We believe “it is my job.” While delegation, collaboration, and cooperation are important at the end of the day “it is my job.” We hold each other accountable, but most importantly we hold ourselves accountable

Having core values does not mean we don’t make mistakes, it means that we hold ourselves accountable and allow others to hold us accountable.
