General Info

Gentle Doctor Animal Hospital, formerly known as Mapleview Animal Clinic, was founded in 1965 by Dr. T. Robert Bashara. The practice was first located at 9015 Ohio Street in Omaha, Nebraska. Dr. Bashara worked as a single practitioner of veterinary medicine there until 1981 when he hired his first associate. As Omaha grew, so did the need for veterinary services further west. Dr. Bashara opened a second veterinary hospital in 1985 at 120th and Blondo, which was then called Candlewood Animal Hospital. After a few years, and substantial growth, a third associate was hired. Both hospitals kept three full-time associates very busy for the next few years, and in 1997, Dr. Peter Bashara, a recent Iowa State Veterinary Medicine graduate and the son of Dr. Bashara, returned to Omaha and joined the family business. Omaha's continuing westward expansion once again required the need for veterinary services, and construction began to build a state-of-the-art veterinary hospital on the outskirts of the city. In 1999 the Gentle Doctor Animal Hospital was opened by Dr. Bashara and his son Dr. Peter Bashara at 153rd and Maple in the Torrey Pines shopping center. The business continued to grow and currently has 44 professional and non-professional employees. We also offer acupuncture and laser therapy services!

My dog does not like going to get groomed but at Gentle Doctor Animal Hospital they are all very good with him. He always comes out looking great when they are all done. I feel good bringing him here.

We have only been taking our pets to Gentle Doctor for a few months now. But it is the cleanest and nicest one I have seen. The staff is friendly, which is a plus!

I always recommend the Gentle Doctor. I have full confidence with the knowledge, quality and care the doctors provide. They provide extended hours in the evening and on Saturdays -- with 3 locations to pick from. All of the staff are friendly and caring. Dr. Bashara is so caring and in my opinion the best vet doctor in Omaha!
