Mustang Veterinary Surgical - Pilot Point, Texas

My dog had torn both ACL’s, one after the other. During the first tear, we had no idea what the cause of his pain and lameness was. We went to three different vets and they all said it was simply mild arthritis. By the time we took him to Dr. Dean, he could hardly walk. He was able to immediately show us the tear in his leg on the X-ray and went over in detail how he could fix it. He also warned us that because he put so much weight on his other leg during this time, it would likely tear too. He was transparent with us about the entire process from surgery to recovery and we knew without a doubt that we could trust him with such an extensive surgery. We had both legs operated on at different times over the course of a year. He was seven just before his first surgery. His lameness was so bad we had to carry him outside just to go to the restroom. He’s eight now and can run and play and has the energy of a puppy again. I will be forever grateful for the years we gained back with our dog because of Dr. Dean. The professionalism and wisdom he carries will always be respected by me and my partner. I highly recommend him for anyone that might be in a similar situation that we were in.

Our experience with Dr. Dean and the staff at Mustang Veterinary was excellent. Our lab mix and golden retriever each had similar problems requiring surgical repair. Dr. Dean was clear in explaining the diagnosis and options. After the surgery he and his staff guided us through the rehab process. Both of our dogs healed well - the first surgery was 7 years ago - and have not had any recurring problems.

Dr. Dean and his staff are A Number One. My expensive (and awesome) hunting dog came down with a joint infection just one day before I was leaving the country for vacation. Dr. Dean agreed to board the dog for observation and treatment. He kept me updated while I was away. Turns out, he not only saved my dog’s leg, he saved its life ... a life I enjoy to this day. Mustang Vet’s skill and professionalism is simply remarkable. The “above and beyond” attitude, however, separates these nice folks from the pack.

We discovered our dog had to have ACL surgery. After visiting a local surgeon in McKinney, I left disheartened. Although I imagine the procedure would have been done correctly, I felt no connection to the surgeon and had no confidence that he really cared about my dog. He made no attempt to even speak to him and comfort him. It seemed he was just another case file.
I came across Dr. Dean through a recommendation from an acquaintance. I decided to schedule an appointment. I drove from McKinney to Pilot Point because it was important that I felt a connection and my dog was considered more than a surgical fee. To my surprise, my wishes were granted. Dr. Dean took so much time explaining the procedure, answering my questions and concerns. His staff was friendly and caring and made me feel our baby was going to be in the best care. They contacted me with updates as he was in surgery and kept me updated through the entire process. The procedure was a great success and I didn't hesitate to make the drive again when it was time to do the second leg. They are a wonderful team and really love their patients.

Dr. Dean and his staff are amazing!! Our dog (age 6 or so) messed up her leg terribly bad in July 2021. Dr. Dean performed her surgery on July 19, 2021 and today November 11 2021, she has now been walking perfectly with ZERO limping for several weeks now. She had TPLO and Troclear Sulcoplasty. We carefully followed everything Dr. Dean told us to do and I am so happy she is doing awesome!! Dr. Dean and his staff are very caring and thorough!! We are 100% satisified with this outcome!! Thank you Dr. Dean and your staff!

We had a very hard decision to make concerning our 8 month old Neapolitan Mastiff who developed a significant limp. Surgery was recommended so we contacted Mustang Veterinary Surgical and after weighing the odds we decided to do the surgery.
The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and extremely helpful. They have gone above and beyond in our opinion and have earned our respect and gratitude.
Dr. Dean expressed his concerns about recovery due to age of our dog and his extreme amount of energy leading to him not healing correctly. We devised a plan for recovery and the results have been much better than we had hoped.
What we have now is a healthy dog and a container of bone fragments as a memento of a very difficult time.

My Lab, Goose, broke his leg and needed to have surgery and a metal rod placed to save it. Dr. Dean got Goose in very quickly even though he was very busy. The office kept me updated by text during his surgery. Goose is healing and doing very well so far! Every time I have a question or concern about Goose they reply to my emails quickly and are very helpful and knowledgeable! I highly recommend this Vet if your fur baby is needing surgery.

I'm sad to see the negative reviews. Surgery is risky for people and animals...

We had a great experience at Mustang Veterinary Surgical. Gayle is so sweet and comforting during such a hard time of my baby (dog) having surgery. I did not understand the surgery at first and Dr. Dean took the time to explain everything, showing me pictures and instruments etc. before we committed. My dog had torn her acl and she had tplo surgery with Dr. Dean. A little over a year later, she tore her other acl, so we had another surgery with Dr. Dean. So we had 2 tplo surgeries done about a year and a half apart, and had great results both times.
