Overview

Dedicated to improving the quality of life for your pet. Bienville Animal Medical Center is a full-service pet hospital in Ocean Springs, Mississippi, that has been caring for pets for more than 30 years. They consider it an honor every time they meet a new pet

After being employed by Broussard Animal Hospital, Dr. Chris Duke purchased the animal hospital from Dr. Broussard’s estate after his untimely death in 1983. On the same site, Dr. Duke expanded the facility and renamed it Bienville Animal Hospital a few years later. After purchasing adjacent property to the location in 1990, the Bienville Animal Hospital was poised to expand and enlarge its configuration on Highway 90 in Ocean Springs. Construction of the 4700 additional square feet which was added to the original 1900 square foot animal clinic was essentially a new veterinary clinic and not simply an addition. Occupancy of what was once again renamed Bienville Animal Medical Center took place in October, 1993. This newer, state of the art complex was recognized by the trade publication Veterinary Economics with a merit award in 1995

What reviewers say

88% Positive sentiment
based on 1,207 reviews

The practice features a compassionate, highly knowledgeable veterinary team and supportive technicians who handle pets with exceptional care, patience, and skill. Same-day appointments and prompt emergency accommodations are frequently available, and the staff excels at calming anxious or stressed animals. Thorough explanations, clear treatment plans, and thoughtful end-of-life services define the patient experience, though recent corporate acquisition has introduced concerns regarding rising costs, billing transparency, and occasional rushed interactions.
