This place is amazing. Within 2 seconds they knew my dog had an abscessed grass seed in her paw. $50 for the exam fee covered everything. Cool place too with lots of character. Would highly recommend.

It is obvious to me that the doctor and staff truly care about your pets and livestock and want them to experience the best quality of life. They go over and above to do whatever it takes to help you have a lasting, healthy relationship with your furry extended family. When I stopped in last, they didn't have the product I needed, but the doctor hunted it down and then personally delivered it to me later that day. Read Less

My heeler mix was purposefully hit a couple years ago and Dr Davy met us at his clinic with in 20 minutes.

Late Sunday morning my Aussie got hit by a car. She couldn't walk on her right hind leg, blood was coming from her belly and she had signs of being hit in the head. I call his number and a very nice lady (his wife) answered and relayed her condition to him. We meet at the clinic and there he was in his church clothes, climbed up in the back of our SUV and looked her over. He determined she needed xrays and stiches. My husband and myself became his helpers and a couple of hours latter we brought home a very sore girl. No broken leg but a dislocated hip joint, also needed stiches in 3 different places on her inner legs. He took very good care of Skye and treated her like she was his. We were so glad he took time to come in on a Sunday and take care of her. Read Less

Dr. Davy and his staff are EXCEPTIONAL. We are MoGS (Missouri German Shepherd Rescue) and although we're in Kansas City we frequently save Kansas dogs. Dr. Davy has done two serious leg surgeries for us on German Shepherds from that area in the last several years. All I can say is: he's AMAZING! The first dog he operated on for us was from Wichita and he swung into action to save the dog's leg. We did his rehab, following Dr. Davy's instructions to the letter and later adopted him after out with more strict instructions from Dr. Davy. Six months later the dog's vet said you couldn't even tell there had been a break much less one as serious as it was. Wow!And even more special kudo’s go to Dr. Davy, Joseph, Gail and the whole staff for their incredible help with the second dog, Gabe. His paw was run over while standing on gravel, his foot was a nightmare of a mess and his owners dumped him to die in the Wichita pound. We decided to save him and Dr. Davy took him right in and operated. There were many medical complications with the foot and much time passed. In the meantime, due to an internal error of ours when our all-volunteer group changed secretaries, we accidentally dropped the ball and stopped communicating with EAC about Gabe. Recently -- over a year later!! -- we discovered our mistake and in a panic contacted them. We feared the worst and were incredulous to find they were still caring for Gabe in the most loving way. They were beyond gracious and didn’t give us a lecture or a dressing down. I can’t imagine that happening at any other vet clinic we’ve ever worked with, no matter how good they are. No other vet I know would have kept a dog even a month without giving up and sending the dog somewhere else (including a pound). I respect all the many vets we work with, but Dr. Davy is truly exceptional. He is a man of deep integrity and true love for the animals, as well as a remarkably skilled vet. If I lived anywhere near El Dorado, you can bet he’d be my vet! As it is, we so appreciate his help with the dogs we save from his area.TO DR. DAVY: THANK YOU for your huge heart and true love of the animals. What you have and who you are is extraordinary in this day and age. It’s an age where even those who took an oath to help animals seem little inclined to help the homeless and abandoned. You restore my faith in the veterinary profession.TO THE STAFF AT EAC: THANK YOU for your genuine friendliness and true love for the animals. You are exceptional. So many vet staffs come across as bored, unhappy, or even plain unfriendly. Talking to you is a pleasure. It’s truly like talking to a fellow animal lover and not just someone with a job in a vet's office. Read Less

El Dorado Animal Clinic is an outstanding place to take your family friends!!! Dr. Davy and his staff have always treated my pets as if they are their own. I saw someone post about their dog having kennel cough when leaving the boarding facility and I just wanted to let him know that you should expect kennel cough in a boarding situation - no vaccine is 100 % effective and it is IMPOSSIBLE to vaccinate for every strain. I also saw that he made a comment about Dr. Davy getting a subpeona....I would think rather than bad mouthing, he would make sure that he knows the facts.....I know that Dr. Davy is frequently sent a subpeona not because he has done anything wrong but in fact used frequently as an expert witness in the court system.I do not work or live in El Dorado but if anything is wrong with my animal - I will drive the 45 miles to see Dr. Davy and his staff.

The knowledge, skill and compassion is unparalleled. Dr. Harkins, a KVMA Vet of the Year, is not only a superb dog, cat and large animal vet, but is the only area vet I trust with my exotics.

If you want the best quality and care for your pets then look no further than El Dorado Animal Clinic. From the first day I walked in to EDAC they made me feel like family. The entire staff goes above and beyond to address the needs of their clients. The knowledge and compassion with which they care for my pets is such a comfort. The caring staff not only addresses issues my pets have but they also have provided support and comfort to me during the most difficult of decision-making times. If you don't have a regular veterinary clinic or even if you do (and you think its the best) please do yourself a huge favor and visit Dr. Harkins and staff at the El Dorado Animal Clinic. You won't regret it. I travel 60 miles round trip to see that my pets have the ABSOLUTE BEST of care and it is so worth every mile. My only regret is that I didn't change veterinarians sooner than I did. J. Dotson Read Less

DAVY: THANK YOU for your huge heart and true love of the animals. What you have and who you are is extraordinary in this day and age. It’s an age where even those who took an oath to help animals seem little inclined to help the homeless and abandoned. You restore my faith in the veterinary profession.TO THE STAFF AT EAC: THANK YOU for your genuine friendliness and true love for the animals. You are exceptional. So many vet staffs come across as bored, unhappy, or even plain unfriendly. Talking to you is a pleasure. It’s truly like talking to a fellow animal lover and not just someone with a job in a vet's office. Read Less

El Dorado Animal Clinic is an outstanding place to take your family friends!!! Dr. Davy and his staff have always treated my pets as if they are their own. I saw someone post about their dog having kennel cough when leaving the boarding facility and I just wanted to let him know that you should expect kennel cough in a boarding situation - no vaccine is 100 % effective and it is IMPOSSIBLE to vaccinate for every strain. I also saw that he made a comment about Dr. Davy getting a subpeona....I would think rather than bad mouthing, he would make sure that he knows the facts.....I know that Dr. Davy is frequently sent a subpeona not because he has done anything wrong but in fact used frequently as an expert witness in the court system.I do not work or live in El Dorado but if anything is wrong with my animal - I will drive the 45 miles to see Dr. Davy and his staff.

I wouldn't take my animals anywhere else! We've been clients for over 25 years, and Dr. Harkins and his staff have cared for many of our pets from birth to death. The knowledge, skill and compassion is unparalleled. Dr. Harkins, a KVMA Vet of the Year, is not only a superb dog, cat and large animal vet, but is the only area vet I trust with my exotics. I'd highly recommend EDAC to anyone who wants skillful and common-sense care for their pets! Read Less

If you want the best quality and care for your pets then look no further than El Dorado Animal Clinic. From the first day I walked in to EDAC they made me feel like family. The entire staff goes above and beyond to address the needs of their clients. The knowledge and compassion with which they care for my pets is such a comfort. The caring staff not only addresses issues my pets have but they also have provided support and comfort to me during the most difficult of decision-making times. If you don't have a regular veterinary clinic or even if you do (and you think its the best) please do yourself a huge favor and visit Dr. Harkins and staff at the El Dorado Animal Clinic. You won't regret it. I travel 60 miles round trip to see that my pets have the ABSOLUTE BEST of care and it is so worth every mile. My only regret is that I didn't change veterinarians sooner than I did. J. Dotson Read Less
