Three Generations of Arlington Families
Dr. Doyle Johnson opened Park Plaza Animal Clinic in 1972. Dr. D’Anne Stephens joined him as an associate in 1993 and became the owner in 2003. Many of the families we see today are the children and grandchildren of clients who first walked through our doors in the 1970s, and we still treat every client and every pet as family.
