Best animal hospital in Joplin, Missouri (MO) 2024

We have been going to Paws Veterinary Clinic for 14 years. In that time, Dr. Westhoff has been the veterinarian to our Pomeranian, Bear, for at least a decade. She and her staff are absolutely wonderful. They are kind and considerate every time we visit. They are so sweet and loving to our pets. Dr. Westhoff is extremely knowledgeable, takes time to explain things, and is gentle and patient with all the pets we have brought in. She is not quick to do x-rays and surgeries unless she feels they are necessary. We recently adopted a kitten, Oliver, and he is now a patient at Paws as well! We trust Dr. Westhoff and her staff with our pets and wouldn’t think of seeing anyone else. ~Stephanie
