DrJames JonesD.V.M.Doctor
Dr. Jones is a native of South Dakota. He graduated from the Kansas State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 1994. After graduation he practiced in South Dakota for 12 years before moving to Springfield, MO and The Animal Care Center in 2006.
His veterinary interests are varied but he feels helping owners learn how to keep their pets healthy is probably the best service he can provide, whether it be a rabbit, bearded dragon, dog, cockatoo or cat.
Outside veterinary medicine Dr. Jones enjoys reading, exercising (moderately) and the occasional movie.
