Care
for
people

We believe, passionately, in providing exceptional care for every pet we see. But we believe in caring for the people who love them, too. When you walk through our doors, we will treat you like a friend. We make sure questions don’t go unanswered and needs don’t go unmet.

We pride ourselves on creating a supportive, trusting, and positive environment so that you know you are in exactly the right place for the pet you love.

The bond you share inspires us every day. Call us now, and we’ll protect it like we would our own.

Compassion.

Trust.

Care for pets

To you, they aren’t “just a pet”. They are family. And when it comes to family, only the best will do. That is why we hold ourselves to a higher standard. A standard where talent, training, and technology are unmatched. You will see it in our AAHA accreditation - a stamp of comprehensive excellence that fewer than 15% of animal hospitals have. You will see it in how thorough we are with your pet, how deeply we care, and how we work up cases. But most importantly, you will see it in how we help your pet live the longest, happiest, most pain-free life possible. Because when you entrust us with what’s precious, we would never dream of giving you anything less.

Fear Free

Fear Free is a burgeoning movement within veterinary medicine that recognizes the importance of removing fear from visits. When a pet experiences fear, it affects their heart rate, body temperature, and blood pressure. These are the very same systems that veterinary professionals rely on to assess a pet’s overall health, which means that stress could potentially mask a real health problem.

Not here. Our team members are Fear Free certified. It means a higher standard of care for the pet you love. And it means feeling better about bringing your pet to us.

The care Toby gets and my past pets is like they are my children. Well, they are.

Dr.Murphy and his whole staff have been amazing with their care of Lexi during the time I had her.After 14 years it was time to let go. They were all very compassionate and Dr.Murphy explained each step and how she would react. I would go nowhere else now. Thank you all for everything.

Amazing staff, we saw two diff drs when we went, each time they explained everything thoroughly and was very caring.

The care and compassion shown by the staff including Dr. Murphy is simply unmatched. Each member of the staff we encountered this morning went above and beyond. I appreciate every single one of them.

We have been bringing our pets to Dr Murphy when he was at Bayview in Webster and then we followed him when he went to Palmyra for a while but it was a little too far for us and then when he opened his practice at Westside Animal hospital we were so happy and we went back and have been going there ever since. He is the most compassionate man with the animals and he loves them like they’re his kids! Our dog Marley absolutely loves him and his staff and so do we!
