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.

Dr Cruzen's diagnosis for my hen was quick and thorough. He asked about other concerns, past illness or deaths in the flock and though an online appointment doesn't allow for his ability to physically treat the bird, he gave me acceptable advice, medication and follow up instructions. He was very personable and actually seemed concerned as though he knew myself and my bird. Thanks for doing what you do, Doc!

Thank you for helping my new adopted dog Emmy with her anxiety and giving us some good books and resources to look through and read. It’s really nice to be able to contact you when there’s no one else to contact and I can’t get in to see my vet until June I really appreciate your help.
