We drive from Pittsburg to bring our Labrador mix to Girard Animal Hospital even though there are plenty of other choices in our area. My husband and I choose Girard Animal Hospital because we appreciate the patient, respectful way that they handle our family member. The whole staff is great about explaining any issues, how we can have an active role in treatment at home, and if there are any steps we can take that will prevent or reduce any future instances of a situation. They don't try to sell us expensive products when budget-friendly options will do the same job. We have boarded her here a few times over the years. We've always found her to be happy, healthy and well cared for when we pick her up. These fine folks will always be our first choice for animal care, and we recommend them to our friends whenever we can.
Great place to take your animals.
Very friendly.
The best around!
The Girard Animal Hospital is a great place to take your pets. The staff are friendly and always quick to assist you with your pets needs. The cost of services are cheaper than most other animal clinics and they still provide the same quality of professionalism and care toward my pets. When I first walked in I noticed the place was rather small then I looked around and saw kittens in a kennel and an adult cat lying on a bench and I instantly felt at home. I love animals. I love my animals and want the best of care for them at a reasonable price. That's why I take them to the Girard Animal Hospital.
Great people. Very skilled
Awesome service and good pricing!
We trust Dr. Holder with all our animals.
Great people!
Great vet.
Good people. Great vets
Very clean and polite to customers. I'd definitely refer a friend even though it's a long drive from me lol
Caring Staff, good manner, priced right!
My wife and I have been customers for over 10 years now. They have always greeted us with a smile and provided friendly/professional services. Although they have only treated our dogs it has always been economical. Even tho they take walk-ins, I would suggest calling in advance just to let them know what your pets needs are. Because they are so busy they seem to be never to busy to help. Just an awesome piece of mind to know that they care.
Had my dog spayed here, she messed with the incision and they did a follow up for free
friendly
We have used their vet care 15 - 20 yes. We've always had the best care if our pets. They are professionals in their field and caring people to all animals! Thank you Girard Animal Hospital!
The entire staff is very knowlegeable and their love for animals is very apparent in the care they provide.
Awesome service and care! The vet stayed late for us, didnt charge an outrageous fee for this and treated our boy great! We have a 80lb GSD and even when he growled at her (because he was in extreme pain) it didnt phase her at all and she only showed compassion to him. We will drive 45min to use them as our regular vet from now on!
Cheep.quick.love it there
Caring staff and best prices around!
They have wonderful employees. They are a walk in appointment facility. A great place to go for all your pets needs big and small.
Girard Animal Hospital is a highly commendable veterinarian clinic. They do not take appointments, except for grooming, and yet they can move through the line forming at their door with ease. I was pleasantly surprised that I was able to have my cat seen for her yearly exam and her shots done for less than $50. We've never been to a vet with better service or pricing. Thank you to everyone working here to make a difference.
These are people that really care about the animals that they see.
Had no idea how to treat a foot with an infection. Can back to me bloody. Had to go elsewhere to have toe removed because they left floating bones in her foot.
We always get excellent service at Girard Animal Hospital. The staff is caring and knowledgeable and the wait isn't long.
They are kind and very compassionate.
Great atmosphere for your pet...very knowledgeable veterinarians...reasonable cost to customers
We drive from Oronogo because of great service. Have been going there for 20 plus years...excellent care! Highly recommended.
This office has saved the lives of several of my pets in years past. I would have recommended them to anyone. I don't know what changed. I wish I had known then what I know now about this place. I brought in a cat at the end of May with various alarming symptoms and was told he was dehydrated, had allergies and arthritis. He was given a blood test. This will be important later. His treatment consisted of a single combo steroid and antibiotic injection. The diagnosis didn't sound right to me but the vet was so confident and matter-of-fact that I believed it. Expecting his treatment to be expensive due to the myriad of symptoms, I had requested a payment plan before care, as there is a sign in the office advising customers to do so if necessary. This may have been the kiss of death for my cat. However, I instead decided to pay the bill in full on the spot, and was so grateful that he would be okay. This turned out to be a waste of money. He was sent home with what was, I later learned from a vet who listened and actually cared, a highly elevated white cell count and severe infection still festering in his body. His symptoms never fully subsided but after a few days they returned worse than ever. After a little over a week of this, I called Girard Animal Hospital and was told I could bring him back in. The people running the office make no disguise of their distaste when they don't want to treat your pet, but you hope they'll do their jobs anyway. Despite his suffering and symptoms that wildly differed from his treatment this time, a mere steroid shot for arthritis, he was sent home again. Still with the infection heavily impairing his bodily functions and mobility. No mention of infection at all, and I was given instructions to bring him in every few weeks as necessary for steroid shots for the "arthritis." Once again, I had requested a payment plan beforehand, expecting something expensive to treat the horrific symptoms my cat was experiencing. This time his "treatment" was even less expensive than last time. I paid it in full. Yet again a waste of money. He was sent home, the untreated infection beginning to ravage his bloodstream and central nervous system at this point. Another few weeks pass and this poor cat is swollen and barely eating. I have realized that the Girard Animal Hospital has failed him and will absolutely allow him to suffer and die at this point. I take him to a different vet. Within 5 minutes the vet says they suspect it was a bacterial infection all along. They keep him for most of the day. They run blood tests. By the end of the day, he's given 2 different antibiotics to bring home with him, 2 shots, and had to have fluid drained off of his body. I pay them in full, the same as I did with Girard Animal Hospital both times. The new vet worries the infection may have lingered too long untreated for the antibiotics to work and keep my cat alive. Less than a week later, the vet turns out to be right. My cat isn't going to survive. He'll likely pass today or tonight. So, I learned a lesson. When you feel like your concerns for your pet are being brushed off, get a second opinion. Soon. If you go to Girard Animal Hospital, maybe bring someone along who fits a certain visual profile that they obviously prefer. And most importantly: ignore the sign that says they have options for a payment plan. All it does is tip them off on which pets they can get away with misdiagnosing. Your pet will not be treated properly if you take that sign at face value. Unless you're someone they've arbitrarily decided meets their criteria of a trustworthy customer, they will let your pet die. They will pretend that they don't see symptoms that could kill an animal or even a person. To them it says "Ignore: Will Not Pay." I would recommend a different vet altogether, even if you *do* pay Girard Animal Hospital an expensive bill in full that day. This place has lost its heart. And now my family is losing our much beloved cat, who deserved so much better than the negligent "treatment" he received here.
Glad they are open on weekends. The vet and staff are efficient patient, and kind. Reasonable prices. Great place to care for your animals.
Absolutely wonderful and caring staff
Good place to take your sick pet
Ok
I have been using Dr's Morland's for over 25 yrs. They are very knowledgeable on both small and large animals. They have added valuable staff members over the years to help care for all animals and they always provide compassionate care.
We love Girard Animal Hospital!! We drive from Joplin for the care and great prices we receive there. Thank you doctors and staff for all you do!!
Dr Holder is an awesome veterinarian
Great with animals
Best vets ever!!
My regular vet RECOMENDED Girard Animal Hospital to do cryptorchids for me. And when the little monsters act up, they think of other ways to control them so the job can be done safely. I highly recommend them and wish they were closer to me.
Great people running it
Always great
Very kind people
They are simply the best!!
Best vet for miles around! Kind and caring people. I drive nearly an hour just to take my animals there! WONT go anywhere else!
Just a check up and shots for our dog
They really care for your animals and pet's at reasonable price
This place is absolutely the best! Our doggies love their groomer and they always take care of our pets when they're sick. When I had my baby, they went above and beyond to board our dogs while I was in the hospital. Highly recommend!
I was disappointed with the care I received Friday. First of all I called for an appt. To get shots for my dog and was told I didn't need one, I just needed to come not during lunch hour. I waited until one to get there. There was one gentleman ahead of me but by the time I was called back the small waiting room had filled up. I was not met by Dr Laura or Dr Kristol but someone else. Not sure but it might have been a tech. She gave the shot. Didnt tell me what it was. I asked about what I should use for Flea medicine since my pup is hairless. She said a pill. I assumed she was getting it and going to bring it back to me. Oh she went to get it and yelled at me to come out of the exam room.didn't tell me what the pill was. I trusted the medicine given because it was gah but the person who helped me never introduced herself or explained what was what and did not smile one time. I got in and out quickly but was very disappointed with the care..I am supposed to take my pup back in a month but I am very undecided
In a small town they are the best.
Had been a long term customer of GAH and when we found that our 6 year old lab mix was sick we went to see them. It was a Saturday (10/21) morning, we had to wait about 30 minutes to be seen. Once we were finally brought back into the room, the exam only took about 5 minutes. We were told, "well she is not dying" and "give her this medicine and come back Monday morning if she is not better." Well, unfortunately, she rapidly deteriorated through the rest of Saturday, doing exactly what the medicine was supposed to prevent ,and into Sunday when we decided to take her to the ER Vet in Joplin. We then found out that she was in fact dying and only had short time. We were forced to make the awful decision of having to put down our fur-baby. Overall I feel that we were rushed through our appointment at GAH and blown off so that they could close up early on Saturday. They certainly did not help our dog. Needless to say, we will NEVER return to GAH.
Laura is TOP DOG in caring for her patients.
Friendly people ,4 doctors on hand,great with ur Animals
I have been going to this vet fofor as long as I can remember with my grandmother and now, i take my pets there when i have any issues. I would recomend to anyone who wants good care for their animals. I have never had issues and the staff has always been very friendly and respectful.
Good animal care
Unfortunately my experience wasn't as pleasant as the other ratings. New mom to two puppies who had just been vaccinated and were sickly. I know a full checkup is necessary in getting a new animal and so I went there. The floors were in a unbelievable shape which made me afraid for what else they could get. They checked for worms. Yes worms. Got meds out the door. The resting face and bedside manor of the veterinarian lady was less than friendly and other than wormy I have zero idea of the health of my dogs.
Amazing vet. They really care about helping the animals. Always walk in care, no appointments.
My timeline is off. It said I visited this place 3 months ago. It was in the middle of November not December. I am tired of technology posting false timelines, but still a pretty cool place that I went with my Mom in Kansas.
Nice people and care about all animals
Kind, compassionate, knowledgeable staff. Very reasonable prices for services.
Great folks here!
Dr Laura is wonderful. She does all she can and more to help you when you are there. She a great teacher as well.
Best animal hospital!!
We have been to other vets in Fl. Never have our little ones been treated like they were with you. They were treated as if they were your own family. The kindness and gentle hands. We always feel so welcome and loved.
Real friendly
I could not be more pleased with the assistance I have received from Girard Animal Hospital. I recently purchased a very small Yorkie that has been having difficulties and everyone here has been compassionate and helpful. They have made sure that I have been able to get my puppy in right away and they have even taken her home with them to monitor. I felt assured and safe with leaving her with them. I am extremely grateful to them for loving all animals, the way that they do.
Always happy to help,friendly and knowledgeable staff
Dr. Morland was very caring and thorough. Very reassuring in those moments of confusion and stress. She got my dog in for surgery the same day!
This place really takes great care of animals.... both large and small.
The waiting area is small but they were pretty quick to get to my pet and they were really sweet to him
Nice people. Busy.
Best Veterinary in the county the whole staff is wonderful and polite.
Only place that I will take my animals fast and great service great staff
Good
Great pet care and great prices
Not friendly at all. Would not recommend going there at all
They are very caring and do a great job.
This hospital saw my cats and did not charge an arm and a leg. Although I wasn't too happy with the vet who said my cats did not have fleas. I have 2 black cats and one tuxedo cat and if it wasn't for my tuxedo cat and showing her the fleas in her white fur, my cats would not have been helped. She prescribed advantage 2 so now instead of taking mt cats to be seen by a vet and told the same thing, I just put advantage 2 on my cats once a month.
Friendly carrying service as WWII as reliable.
Fast friendly service. No appointment needed! Had a emergency with my dog my bill was only $50.
They are reasonable price$_
I have been going to Girard Animal Hospital with my animals (large and small) since I can remember. My animals as well as myself have always been treated well and I have been educated a time or two. Both Bill and Laura are wonderful, caring people. And their staff is too! My only regret is not getting a job there when I was a kid so I could have learned even more. I would recommend them to anyone.
Really good staff, of good caring people that are always there for you & your pets
Really good with all animals
I won't take my "kids" anywhere but Girard Animal Hospital. They treat my pets like I do, as one of the family. I can't imagine getting better care anywhere else, that's why I will stay where I know I can trust my "kids" will be well taken care of.
excellent help for my cattle. Crystal and Bill did a great c section on saturday afternoon. saved my cow and calf. Only thing is i wanted a heifer calf but got a bull calf. little disappointed Bill. Ha ha. thanks again
Busy place. Nice people.
Awesome people, my mothers puppies had gotten very I'll one night and they were closed, she was able to get them to come out and open up 5o try to save them. They are very friendly and sweet. They try their very best.
You can always count of professional and caring vets and staff. I know without a doubt my pet's interest is top priority. We live 45 minutes away but they are the only vets we trust with our pets. When we had to put our dog to sleep due to heart disease they cried right along with us. This is the best animal hospital and the only one worth going to.

Girard Animal Hospital is an amazing place for my fur babies. The people there treat my babies as their own. And their prices are very reasonable. They've even allowed me to make payments when I've had to. They are an awesome group of people and I'd send everyone I meet to them!
Excellent! We are new to the area. I took an orphaned puppy as a walk-in on a busy day (for them), they got us in and out very quickly! They were great with my puppy, he never even whimpered with the shots. Highly recommend!
Brought my cat to figure out why she had sniffles and finally figured it out. She was properly taken care of and now feels much better. Appreciate the great care my cat received.
Awful place, just awful ... lost 2 kittens due to their meanhearted negligence ... BAD PEOPLE. Dishonest gossip mongers ... Avoid, avoid, avoid!!!!!
Friendly service, reasonable prices.
Dr Laura and Dr Krystal have always been there even for those last minute emergencies ty highly reccommend them :)
Awesome place to get your pet's cared for. They have over 5 vets to take care of your pet's needs.
Only vet around that I will use. They know our dogs the best and they are always willing to help out. Best vet around!
Sent my fur baby home after 1 day on fluids kidney failure possible parvo. She appeared better but not ready for home. 2 Hours later I took her back there and the nurse told me they sent my baby home for financial reasons. They were afraid we couldn't pay for her.. (they assumed didn't ask) so when I drove her all the way back she had to be resesitated and ended up dieing there my family was devistated.
The best veterinary around. Kind, caring and comforting staff. They have taken excellent care of our pets for over 20 years.
Great people!! Great service !! Good prices!!
This is the only place that I will take my fur babies. We have been taking our babies there since our family moved to town in the late '90's. The doctor and staff always treat our animals like their own.
I have been taking my animals to Girard for at least 20 years and have always got in quickly and had an appointment when I would call. They care about your animals! Pauline Hart and I will continue driving from Fort Scott for all our animal needs.
