She is almost 16 years old and this is the only place I trust 100%. Dr. Kidd and Dr. Paul spend so much time going over everything during our visits and they make my dog feel so comfortable and safe that she actually gets excited to go to the vet now. Dr. Kidd performed surgery on her recently and could not have done a more perfect job. A truly fantastic vet. Love this place! read less

I wouldn't take my fur babies anywhere else! I trust her with their care and know she makes the best decisions for them. She takes time with them and doesn't rush us out.

She is up to date on the latest vet medicine and treatments. She saved two of our dogs and referred us to good vet specialists when our dogs needed orthopedic and dental care. She is competent, patient and a dedicated veterinarian who takes the time to review the medical care for each of our dogs. We have gone to Dr. Kidd over the past 20 years and would not go to anyone else. Kitty S. read less

Leia Paul, DVM
Dr. Leia Paul has been in small animal practice since her graduation from Purdue School of Veterinary Medicine in 1999. Her husband’s career path has taken her to many places—from Atlanta to Wisconsin to Maryland and finally to North Wilmington, where she has been in practice for 8 years. She is very excited to join the PVS team! Dr Paul grew up in southern Indiana and did her undergraduate studies at Oglethorpe University in Atlanta. She always knew she wanted to be a vet and enjoys the challenges and diversity that the profession offers. She loves the detective work of difficult medical cases, the artistic aspects of soft tissue surgery, and the relationships she forms with her clients and their furry children. The Paul family lives in North Wilmington and includes Dr. Paul’s husband, Brian, their two children Ella and Nate, their two poodles Lulu and Emmi, and their cats Gracie and Ollie. Top hobby for Dr.Paul is growing orchids and trying to get them to re-bloom.
History of our Building
We are privileged to work in a very unique and historical setting. Our building was built in 1893 as a passenger station for the Wilmington and Northern Railroad, then following some conversion work it became the Pocopson Post Office in 1947. The facility was subsequently sold at auction during the 1970’s, then refurbished as a veterinary practice in 1991. Many original fixtures and features have been preserved, and today the property is listed in the Chester County Register of Historic Places. The train still visits us a few times each day.
