Twenty years ago, we moved to Ocean Pines, Md from Venice, Florida. Dr. Maniatty and his wonderful staff did not know us at all, but when our first Ocean City veterinarian refused to provide an emergency appointment for our Westie, Duffer, we called Dr. Maniatty. We thought Duffer had broken his leg, and we were desperate for veterinary care. Fortunately, Duffer had a luxating patella that was readily repaired by Dr. Maniatty's expertise. We have been with Dr. John Maniatty and his personable and professional staff ever since, and they have cared for six of our Westies: "Duffer" and "Divot", a brother and sister pair, "Lily" and "Daisy", two sisters we had adopted from Maryland Westie Rescue at the age of 12 years, and "Razzie" and her grandmother "Gwennie". Throughout all of their lives, we have received the "best of the best" veterinary care. Dr. John and his gracious and competent staff have always been there for us whenever we call or just show up! We recently had to euthanize the last of our beloved Westies, Razzie, and she is now in Heaven at the Rainbow Bridge with all of her loved ones. We could not have asked for better care for all of them, and we highly recommend Dr. John and Precious Paws Animal Hospital as THE best veterinary care we have ever received in Maryland, Florida, New Jersey and Manhattan. Veterinary care doesn't come any better than this. Thank you, Dr. John and Staff, for all the years of excellent care!

Precious Paws was incredibly helpful in completing the required testing and providing my son with all of the necessary paperwork for his cat to move to Hawaii. They also examined his turtle and gave Shelly a clean biil of health. They were the only veterinary office that was able to help with the turtle, and we truly appreciate their expertise and willingness to go the extra mile. We are very grateful for all of their help and highly recommend Precious Paws!
We live on Chincoteague- an hr away from OCMD. Our 12yr old lab Si had cancer and took a bad turn basically over night. Our normal vet couldn’t get us in until the next day to put him down. I called Precious Paws and they told me they could end his suffering in just an hour. Basically the time it took me to get to them. We were met with compassion and care like we had been their patient for years. I could not be more grateful for the love we were shown today ❤️ I will likely move my other dogs to their practice.
