Veterinarian Serving Nixa, MO
Wellness care, surgery, dental care, boarding, grooming and mobile visits for Nixa dogs and cats, just northeast of town in north Ozark.
A Full-Service Vet for Nixa Families
Nixa pet owners can get full-service veterinary care at McClure Veterinary Clinic, 5261 N 22nd St in north Ozark, northeast of Nixa and just west of U.S. Highway 65. We care for dogs and cats with wellness exams, vaccines, dental care, surgery and same-day urgent visits during business hours, Monday through Friday from 8:30am to 5:00pm. Call (417) 731-4071 or request an appointment online.
Nixa and Ozark are neighboring Christian County communities, linked by Missouri Route 14, and Nixa is one of the core communities our team serves. Having a veterinarian close to home makes it easier to keep up with yearly exams and vaccine boosters, get a sick pet seen the same day, and fit boarding or grooming drop-offs into a busy week.
Dr. Meda Bacon founded McClure in 2017, and she and Dr. Michael Opsomer (“Dr. Mike”) lead a team of experienced technicians, receptionists, kennel staff and a professional groomer. We are independently operated, so the care plan you get is built around your pet, not a corporate checklist.
Veterinary Care for Nixa Dogs and Cats
Our Ozark hospital has the equipment to diagnose and treat most problems in one place, which saves Nixa families extra trips and referrals for routine needs.
- Wellness and prevention: nose-to-tail wellness exams, vaccines tailored to your pet’s lifestyle, and heartworm and intestinal parasite testing.
- Diagnostics: an in-house laboratory for same-day bloodwork, urinalysis and cytology, plus digital X-rays, ultrasound and echocardiograms.
- Surgery: spay and neuter and soft-tissue surgery with pre-surgical bloodwork, IV catheter placement, continuous monitoring and pain management.
- Dentistry: professional cleanings and digital dental X-rays.
- Long-term care: allergy treatment, senior pet care and our in-house pharmacy for prescriptions and preventives.
Ticks and mosquitoes are part of life around Nixa’s parks, creeks and backyards, so parasite prevention is a conversation we have with every family. We will recommend a plan that fits how your pet actually lives.
Boarding and Grooming for Nixa Pets
Boarding and grooming have their own entrance and lobby at our clinic, and weekday drop-off begins at 7am, so many owners can drop off before work.
- Dog boarding: medium and large runs, small-dog kennels, half-day and full-day daycare, and enrichment add-ons like snuffle mats and lick mats. See pet boarding or dog boarding near Springfield.
- Cat boarding: a quiet feline room away from the dogs. See cat boarding.
- Grooming: bath-and-brush, mini-grooms, full and breed-specific cuts, and a puppy’s first groom with our groomer, Katelyn. See dog grooming near Nixa.
Boarding drop-off and pick-up: Monday–Friday 7am–6pm; Saturday and Sunday 9–10am and 5–6pm. Reservations are required for boarding. Call (417) 731-4071 and press 2, or use the boarding form or grooming form.
Mobile Vet Visits for Nixa Homes
Some pets do better at home: cats who hate the carrier, large or arthritic dogs, seniors, and households with several pets. Our mobile veterinary service brings many routine services to you, including wellness exams, vaccinations, blood draws and lab testing, parasite prevention, senior care, ultrasound, hospice support and in-home euthanasia.
To book, complete the mobile visit request form with your address and each pet’s details, and our team will follow up to confirm. Call us if you would like to check availability for your Nixa address first. Care that needs anesthesia or hospital equipment, such as surgery and dental cleanings, is done at our Ozark clinic.
Choosing a Veterinarian in Nixa: Questions to Ask
Whether you are new to Nixa or simply looking for a better fit, these questions help you compare clinics, and here is how McClure answers them:
- Can they run lab work and X-rays on site? Yes. We have an in-house laboratory and digital radiography, so many results come back the same day.
- Will they see a sick pet the same day? We do our best to fit in same-day urgent visits during business hours. Call ahead so we can prepare.
- Who do you call after hours? We refer after-hours emergencies to the Emergency Veterinary Clinic of SW Missouri in Springfield. Read our after-hours emergency guide.
- Can boarding, grooming and medical care happen in one place? Yes. If your boarding pet is due for vaccines or a fecal exam, we can take care of it during the stay (additional fees apply).
- Do they offer home visits and end-of-life care? Yes, through our mobile service and Greener Pastures, Dr. Bacon’s in-home end-of-life service.
- How do they keep you informed? The free McClure Vet Clinic app handles appointment requests, reminders, refills and records.
