Dr. Mozzie Parker is a native of Biloxi, Mississippi. She attended D’Iberville High School and the University of Southern Mississippi. She received her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 1990.

After receiving her doctorate, Dr. Parker worked for the Mississippi Department of Agriculture as a veterinary medical officer for eight years. She trained meat inspectors to identify diseases in animals preserved for processing.

In September 2001, Dr. Parker established The Pet Clinic in Woolmarket, Mississippi. She excels as a diagnostician, and her special interests in veterinary medicine include internal medicine, soft tissue surgery, and breed-related medicine. Dr. Parker’s primary focus is to tailor treatments and preventative medicine to the needs of each patient. Always wanting to stay technologically advanced, Dr. Parker enjoys exploring new and improved ways of treating animals by attending continuing education seminars whenever possible.

Dr. Parker has been an active member of the American Veterinary Medical Association and the Mississippi Veterinary Medical Association since 1992; she has also been a member of the South Mississippi Medical Association since 2002, served as a past president of the organization, and has held her Mississippi veterinary license since 1990.

Dr. Parker and her husband, Donnie, have three sons: Jake, Grant, and Jesse. They also have two dogs — Drew, a Boston terrier mix; Patrick, a boxer; and Jello, a domestic long-haired cat. In her spare time, Dr. Parker enjoys motorcycle riding, reading, true crime stories, and container gardening. A fun fact about Dr. Parker is that she used to be a gymnast and taught gymnastics to children.

I’ve had a hard time finding a vet that I felt like actually cared about my dog and that wasn’t just pushing us out to get the next pet in. Here I really feel like they actually care about your animal and giving them the best care. They’re transparent and keep you informed every step of the way. They’re knowledgable and patient. I will be bringing any future pets I have here as well!

My young brother cats have had severe dental problems, probably genetic (since they are related and have had these issues since they were just a year old). One has already had all his teeth out. The other had more than half of them extracted when I moved to the Gulf Coast and needed to have him looked at. I had noticed he had red gums, followed by apparent pain while eating sometimes. Sure enough, he needed to have three MORE teeth out. It wasn't the news I wanted, because recovery from molar extraction can be an ordeal, and in my case, my other cat had shown aggression to this one for several days after his first dental surgery. Suffice it to say that I was dreading this. But the staff at this clinic made the surgery a much better experience for us all. They gave the patient what he needed for anesthesia but nothing excessive (my old clinic had used... some pretty hard drugs, let's say, which caused both my boys to have no inhibitions or boundaries for 24 hours), so he was back to his usual self quickly. His brother hissed a bit, but it only lasted ~24 hours rather than almost 5 days (probably a consequence of the medication choices!). There were no post-op complications, and best of all, the cost of the surgery was LESS THAN HALF of what I'd been paying for this type of treatment. My cats have a tendency to get stressed and soil their carriers. The staff at this clinic have been very understanding of this situation and even find humor in it. They also wrote me a prescription for an online pharmacy to save money on their monthly anti-parasite topical, which is very important -- even for indoor cats -- in such a mosquito-ridden area. It's important to remember that vet clinics have to work with third-party partners, including pharmacies, lab companies, and drug companies, among others. Some of these companies essentially have monopolies (I believe this is particularly true for lab work), and others charge very high prices for rental or purchase of their equipment. It's like a human hospital; the doctor is not necessarily setting the cost of lab work or an equipment procedure, but rather a third-party company. It stinks; don't get me wrong, but it isn't the doctor's fault. But this is more to comment on other reviews than on anything I personally have experienced here. Bottom line, The Pet Clinic is full of friendly people who try to work with you and your personal needs, because they don't want a customer's finances to cause a pet not to get the care it needs.
