The mission of our hospital is to fulfill the needs of our patients by providing quality, yet affordable, pet care services through a responsive professional staff. We emphasize individual attention and commitment to our clients, and their pets!
In 1980, Dr. Paulson purchased the Bakersfield Spay Clinic from long-time owner Dr. Barney. Since that time he has converted this clinic into a full service veterinary hospital.
At Stine Vet, we take pride in offering the most complete range of veterinary care, as well as the highest degree of professionalism from our veterinarian and staff members:
