About Vet

Hello, I’m Dr. Roy. I look forward to helping you and your pet from the comfort of your home. You will have my undivided attention for up to 30 minutes.

Enzo, my pup and constant companion, will help during our video appointment.

I grew up on a ranch in Texas. With my father’s encouragement, I received my DVM from Texas A&M.

During my career, I’ve been fortunate to practice on many species. A for armadillos to Z for Zebras.

I enjoy telling tall tales of my experiences!

The Human Animal Bond is dear to my heart. I helped launch pet visitation programs at the Houston Medical Center during the 1980s.

I’ve served on numerous boards and volunteered my services and time to shelters and animal rescue groups.

Ongoing continued education keeps me up-to-date on the rapid advancements in veterinary medicine.

Thank goodness for Dr. Cruzen's caring attention and understanding during our visit today. I was provided exactly what I needed to help my emotional support dog, and this was a great relief for me! He also suggested additional tools to help my dog's health issue, a simple process and plan for the better, even including some fun and easy things to do! My initial expectations of using Vetster were highly exceeded, and based upon our pleasant experience meeting with Dr. Cruzen, I would recommend choosing both to any pet owner who is new to on-line veterinary services.
