Looking for a (great) Veterinarian anywhere in StL.

I'm looking for a Vet in the St. Louis area. I am in West County but willing to go anywhere in the area for a really good vet. I had the most awesomely perfect Vet but she retired a few years ago. My dog is now sick/injured and the place I've been taking him for routine check ups was not very helpful when I brought him in yesterday. They gave me some pain pills for him and just kinda sent me on my way. I'm pretty sure there's more wrong with him than pain pills can fix. Anyhow, I could be worrying too much but I'm used to a Vet who goes above and beyond and would love to find another like that. So if you know of an amazing Vet in the area please recommend away! My sick dog and I thank you very much.

This is the same place I've been going for about 5 years.

I've gone to Webster Groves Animal Hospital for both of my - dogs since I've moved to STL in the past year. They were fantastic with both of my dogs. They are open until 24hrs, and will take REALLY late appointments (like 10:30 at night).

My parents had their dog put to sleep by the same hospital and couldn't speak better about their experience, and even more so the staff....

I would absolutely recommend them.

This Doc is awesome. She's right in the middle of Maryland Heights.

I see there are a couple of positive reviews for Webster Groves Animal Hospital but I politely disagree. They are highly expensive and I don't think they're all that great on the "bedside manner." They've got nice hours but that is about it. You make an appointment and wait and wait and wait for the doctor to come talk with you. I only use them in case of an emergency.

I now use Watson Road Vet and they're amazing. They're smaller but the personal attention is amazing. They've worked with me on payments, extremely caring towards my 3 dogs and very well priced. They tell me to call back if things aren't better and usually don't charge for a follow up visit if the issue is not fixed.

As an example - to get my dog's teeth cleaned and a tooth pulled I probably would have had around a $500 vet bill at Webster and at Watson the grand total of the bill, including medicine, came out to $101.

I recommend this place to everybody. I've had dogs my entire life and this place can't be beat.

We take our pets to Millis Animal Hospital (near Big Bend and Dale) and have had really great luck. It's completely walk-in, though, so if you have a vet you want to see it helps to call ahead to see if they are working, then just ask to see them when you arrive. I'd recommend Dr. Savage there.

I would recommend Dr. Yaros: http://stlouis.citysearch.com/profile/5720496/bridgeton_mo/carrollton_veterinary_clinic.html

Her office is nearly the smallest building I have ever seen. Despite that, she is spectacular. I took my dog there and found her to be a wealth of knowledge, incredibly patient, and really helped me out. She devotes a ton of time to rescues in the city (which is how I heard about her). On top of that, she's affordable.

My parents go to this place in Chesterfield right near Ballwin and Town & Country on Clayton Rd. It's at the intersection of Baxter and Clayton, and it's here. http://www.crvhstl.com/

My friend used to work at Tri City Bird and Animal Clinic in Ellisville on Manchester road. Both of these places are amazing.
