Offering comprehensive wellness / preventative care as well as diagnostic, medical, surgical, and dental care. After-hours emergency availability. My daughter's beloved goat started have seizures yesterday and we were unable to find any vet willing to see him. We couldn't reach any livestock vets at all.
There was no way he was going to survive the night. The folks at Paradocs saw him very close to their closing time and stayed late to get him stable. Hes back there this morning for further treatment. To say they went "over and beyond" is a huge understatement. They saw an unusual animal and stayed open late for us, and were extremely kind and sympathetic.

Great experience! Moved in to the area recently and I needed to see a vet for my doggies and I went to Paradocs. At first I was a little worried about the curb side visits and how it was going to work (didn't want my doggies to feel scared), but they made it easy to use and as convenient as possible. The staff from the doc to the receptionist was super friendly. Would definitely recommend to a friend.

We have brought our rabbit here a few times and the vets always takes the time to answer all of our questions and explain what's going on in detail and treatment options. They even call a few days later to recheck and answer any more questions I have. I appreciate the caring staff and their dedication to the animals they take care of.

Both our dogs were behind on shots, and a friend recommended this place. All basic services were no issue at all. Prices are about what we expected.
Best part is the was no push for extras. No xrays, allergy tests, extra tests, etc pushed on us. I really dislike when veterinary services that aren't needed are pushed with a sense of guilt if you say no... Honestly didn't get that here. The Vet was happy to discuss our pets history and give feedback based on our questions. I loved this place. It's been a long time since I had a good experience like this. Will definitely keep this as our vets office

Absolutely love the entire staff here. They take great care of all three of my dogs and my guinea pigs. They're all so personable and treat my animals as if they're their own. I trust their judgment, they always steer me in the right direction. They have also been Champs during covid and trying to make everything as smooth as possible with contact less pick up. I highly recommend

The doctors here took amazing care of my goat, going above and beyond to give Effie a much needed mastectomy. They could have turned me away and sent me to one of the vet colleges, but they were willing to give it their best shot, and both Effie and I appreciate how much more comfortable she is now. For other goat owners looking for a vet - they are willing to try to squeeze goats in for emergencies (which is so rare for us to see, as most livestock vets can be so hard to get a hold of) and all the people working here are very sweet and helpful!
