Dr. Sumanth Polikepahad announced plans to open VCare Animal Clinic in the first week of May at 20503 FM 529, Ste. 600, Cypress, near the Fiesta grocery store. The full-service veterinary clinic will take both cats and dogs and will offer services in surgery, preventative care, medical care and dentistry as well as diagnostics in a state-of-the-art in-house laboratory. Specific services will include spaying, neutering, vaccinations, heartworm and flea prevention and care for a broad range of diseases.

The clinic will accept walk-ins, appointments and drop-offs and will be able to work with clients in Spanish. While the clinic's website is under construction, Dr. Polikepahad can be reached via email at [email protected].
