Independent Clinic

Clinic Overview

Paw Paws Vet Clinic is an independent practice (reviews refer to “Ron, the owner”) that’s been operating for over 10 years, and it treats a wide mix of pets including cats, dogs, rabbits, ferrets, hamsters and guinea pigs. The clinic appears set up for routine preventative care (vaccines, deworming, parasite prevention, microchipping) as well as ongoing medical problems and sensitive end‑of‑life support.

Concrete examples owners mention include: a long, unhurried euthanasia appointment for a dog with heart failure (the family stayed over an hour); support during emergencies for an active dog with injuries; and a structured “process of elimination” approach discussed for chronic skin/allergy issues (including a biopsy in one case). Reviews also show mixed experiences with front‑desk interactions (one reviewer singled out a receptionist as rude).

People

  • Dr. Mesut (vet): Mentioned repeatedly for routine check-ups, vaccines, deworming, and travel preparation for a cat; also for end-of-life decision-making and compassionate euthanasia care for a dog with heart failure. Another owner describes him as a key support during emergency visits for an injury‑prone dog.
  • Ron (owner): Named in reviews, including being present and emotionally supportive during a euthanasia appointment; also described as closely bonded with a long-term patient (a Border Collie).

Reviews

Google rating: 4.4 stars from 198 reviews. “”

  • End-of-life care described as unhurried and compassionate: one family reported they were not rushed during euthanasia and stayed with their dog for over an hour.
  • Long-term relationships with repeat visits: multiple owners describe returning for years for routine care and injuries, with pets reportedly comfortable coming in.
  • Skin/allergy issues come up in both positive and negative ways: one reviewer praised detailed guidance on next steps and treatment “process of elimination,” while another reported recurring skin problems despite medication and a biopsy and felt progress wasn’t being made.
  • Front-desk experience is inconsistent: one review specifically calls a receptionist rude, while others describe staff as informative and helpful (including on pet plans and vaccine visits).
