AVOID AVOID AVOID. BUYER BEWARE. This place has had serious problems and Ed Nichols is one of the worst vets imaginable. He has been under multiple investigations by the Texas state board but gets away with it because he is an accomplished liar and has his friends posting ridiculous reviews about how great he is because the truth of what he has been for so many years has finally caught up with him.. Forget these little touchy feely reviews about old ladies and their dead pets. That's what this vampire feeds on. YOU WANT THE FACTS? Read what he did to a cat at The Veterinary Abuse Network and there are other victims too. He then sued the owner of that cat to try to silence her in a vicious, vindictive lawsuit for almost three years and failed to get an injunction against her. THIS IS ALL PUBLIC RECORD so all of his claims that his victims are liars, "disgruntled," crazy, etc. are limp and lame. He knows his faithful clients will believe whatever crap comes out of his mouth without checking the FACTS. Nichols is a BULLY who uses his wealth to try to silence his critics, but there is confirmation by three expert vets in writing how many ways he violated the standard of care in his excessive mistreatment of Suki. ONCE YOUR PET IS DEAD HE CAN TELL YOU ANYTHING HE WANTS AND YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO TELL WHEN HE IS LYING. Once your pet is dead there won't be any "second opinons" to mess up his little routine.. Suki fought for her life for a week with other vets trying to undo the damage Nichols had done, but it was too late.They knew what he had done to her because she was STILL ALIVE even after being gassed by Nichols and pumped full of steroid to make her look better. "Caring"? Suki lay dying in a cage at Crestway for hours, dying slowly of dehydration, anemia, and kidney failure after Nichols put her under anesthesia - PROOF is on his patient chart in his own handwriting that he gassed her with halothane and nitrous oxide without IV fluids or consent from the owner. He later admitted in a deposition that he decides when to get consent from the owner. Suki died but not before leaving behind evidence of what he had done to her for such a long time. Read about the LAWSUIT he filed to try to bully the owner into taking down Suki's story. He failed. Go to Veterinary Abuse Network to get the REAL STORY ON ED NICHOLS AND CRESTWAY ANIMAL CLINIC. NOT ALL HIS MONEY AND LAWYERS COULD SILENCE THE TRUTH. If you love your pet AVOID AVOID AVOID this liar with a good act and the people around him who protect him because he signs their paychecks.

I took my Schnauzer to get shots, and groomed. As well as our chihuaha. Dr. Nichols is great. He has such a great personality that it makes you feel right at home. Nancy, the groomer did a wonderful job on Toby, he was a bit of a mess!! Crestway Clinic is so caring. My Mother recently lost a beloved pet, Sparky. They handled the cremation and were so caring with my Mother. When she returned home, she said I feel so much better knowing they are handling everything for me. My Mother is 84 so needless to say I appreciated the extra attention they gave to her. I cannot say enough about this clinic and it's staff. They are the best. Thank You Guys so much. Linda Hill

I WILL REGRET THIS THE REST OF MY LIFE. If you truly love and care for your pet that's probably why you chose to Google Dr. Edward Nichols to see how many "STARS" he has. Unfortunately I didn't have time because I needed a vet right away. PLEASE do not go here. If you do not take my advice, I'm sure you will find Dr. Nichols to be so sweet and caring, that you will think I'm MEAN for writing a bad review about a "nice old man". The truth is, I owe it to my dog to write this so other pet owners, and especially their pet's won't have to suffer like my dog and family has. If you have a child that needed surgery, and you Googled a surgeon that had a total of 20 reviews. Let's say 14 GOOD and 6 BAD, would you choose that surgeon, or look for another? Anyone in their right mind who loves their child would keep searching. And with social networking nowadays you can find out more about someone than just how many STARS they have on reviews. Choose a different one as you would in choosing a surgeon for your child. STARS don't mean anything. After my dog died I finally Googled Dr. Nichols. I found detailed proof and information of what Crestway Animal Clinic's nice old man did to a cat name Suki. Thankfully the owner of Suki posted "Suki's Story" so people can see PROOF of what he did to this poor cat. People who choose "STARS" could end up with a vet like Dr. Nichols, so please, if you love your pet like a kid then do your research more thoroughly. There are so many other vet's in the area.
