Overview
The Clare Animal Hospital was established in 1955 by Dr. Neil Stirling. It was then called N.B Stirling Veterinary Hospital where he practiced small and large animals in the Clare County Area. In 1982 Dr. McNeilly bought the clinic and renamed it Clare Animal Hospital where he practiced veterinary medicine for 35 years. Dr. Eric Gaw started working with our team June 2015 and just recently purchased the practice February 2nd, 2020. We are very pleased and excited to see what the future holds

What reviewers say
The practice provides dedicated, compassionate veterinary care with a knowledgeable clinical team that builds strong relationships with pets and owners. Services span thorough medical examinations, specialized surgeries, and gentle senior support, delivered in a clean environment with fair pricing structures.
