About Oakwell

Learn all about who Oakwell is, including our pet care philosophy!

Oakwell Animal Hospital began with Dr. Jessica Sims' belief that high-quality veterinary medicine and a well-run business should go hand in hand. The cornerstone of her business philosophy is that she believes that a great veterinary clinic starts with great employees. If the staff are happy and well-trained, then no challenge is too great for them to overcome. Fostering a great work environment allows us at Oakwell to retain the best veterinarians and staff which translates to excellent healthcare for your pet and the best customer service for our clients.

Our team's genuine passion for that human-animal bond and our dedication to our clients and community is what sets us apart. We believe that your pets should feel at ease, and you as a client should feel like you are with family. We aim to provide a perfect balance between the needs of our patients and clients.
