Today, Masterson’s Veterinary Clinic has three full-time associates and one part-time associate in addition to Dr. Rhonda Masterson. Two of our associate veterinarians also offer farm animal services by appointment

What reviewers say
The practice is widely regarded for its highly compassionate staff, knowledgeable veterinarians, and exceptionally affordable pricing compared to other area options. The facility is older and unassuming, but families appreciate the gentle handling of anxious pets, strong emergency response times for established patients, and heartfelt support during end-of-life care. However, appointment availability can be constrained, communication and phone access can be inconsistent, and wait times can occasionally be lengthy.
