About Vet

I received my Bachelor of Science Degrees in Biomedical Science and Veterinary Science from Texas A&M University in 1991. I continued my education receiving a doctorate from Texas A&M's College of Veterinary Medicine in 1995. After graduation, I pursued a career in veterinary emergency and critical care before opening my own small-animal practice in 2001. I currently own a small animal practice in Houston, Texas that focuses on internal medicine, geriatric health care, soft tissue surgery, and preventative care for dogs and cats. I hold licenses in multiple states including Texas, Michigan, Virginia, Arizona, Vermont, New Jersey, and New York. I can approve prescriptions during an online appointment for Virginia, Arizona, New Jersey, and New York residents. In my spare time, I love to cook, eat Mexican Food, sip margaritas, and spend the afternoon at the park with my dogs. I have 2 dogs (Briar Patch and Kirvin) and 1 cat (Tater).

****Note: I do not prescribe anti-anxiety drugs, sedatives, tranquilizers or pain medications (like Trazadone, Amantadine, Gabapentin, Clonadine, Paraxetine, Fluoxetine, Acepromazine, Amitriptyline, Sileo, etc) on video appointments. If you are looking for these medications, please schedule with one of the other wonderful veterinarians on Vetster.

Dr. Banks was so incredibly compassionate & helpful for our dog Scamp. She took the time to walk through all the symptoms in detail, ensure I understood all the information regarding medication, and followed up so quickly afterwards with notes and review of the lab work we provided. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a tremendous vet in a time of need!
