“I have been taking my dogs to VCA for several years. They always do their best to get an appointment when needed.
Dr. Hurley is so patient, kind, and helpful when discussing what's best for my dogs. He always calls me back as promised and follows up. I would highly recommend them for your pet.”
“They simply are the best. I went to a vet in Plainville and did not feel comfortable with the care I received, so searched and found Glastonbury Animal Hospital. Dr. Gupta explained everything that was wrong and made sure I knew everything I needed to know. They took care of my cat Rascal as if he was their own. They follow up, and make sure everything is going okay. Will recommended to anyone who has a cat. They simply are amazing!!”
“I took my labrador to Glastonbury Veterinary Hospital in a pinch because there was a fire in our regular vet's office. The office staff at GVH was able to get my pup in for services right away. I loved how gentle and attentive the vet tech was. Moreover, I was blown away by Dr. Haviar. Dr. Haviar carefully explained the etiology of my dog's ear infection. He then showed me the proper way to clean his ears and administer medicine. He was so gentle and patient with my dog, who is absolutely terrified of the vet. You can tell Dr. Haviar and his team love animals. Can't recommend this office enough!”
“The staff at Newington Veterinary Clinic were friendly and knowledgeable. I am new to the area and needed to find a new vet for my cats. I’m so glad I found NVC!”
“Last week my 14 year old shih tzu Chloe was in bad shape. Vomiting, diarrhea, zero energy. I thought she was a goner. The team at AA gave her a thorough evaluation and diagnosed her with an acute liver problem. They gave her fluids overnight and miraculously brought her back to life. Chloe is back to being her usual lovable / annoying self!”
“I took my parrot Rico to Kensington bird and animal hospital was looking for a wile where to take him as he is now 7 years old and I hadn’t done a physical since I got him in 2017, I am very grateful with the staff there they Treated my parrot with love and respect I would recommend Kensington Animal Hospital to Anyone who is looking for pet care”
“The service was amazing! The staff was professional, kind, and courteous. They proactively helped us with everything we needed and did so with a positive attitude! I highly recommend them.”
“I have been going here since they opened. They are the best. Kind and compassionate. I've had both dogs and cats cared for here, they were wonderful with both.”

“I’ve always had terrific experiences with Dr James and the rest of his team. I’ve had dogs with a variety of medical issues and the consultations are spot-on and thoughtful. I have no reservations recommending this practice to anyone.”
“After today I will not be taking any of my pups anywhere else!!! The experience I had today was phenomenal!!! Dr Guimonod was very kind and caring with my Bruno and Daisy today, Bruno can be kind of mean with his bark but she showed no fear and was able to make the visit go as smooth as possible!!!”
“Took my dog here to get neutered and it was so easy and convenient. He recovered very quickly. Will definitely be bringing my other dog once they have availability.”
“I had trouble going back here after having to put down my late dog back in 2020 but to this day I miss the expert professionalism and empathy I was shown every time I walked through those doors by Dr. Park and his incredible staff. Best vet in Central Connecticut, hands down.”

“Dr. O'Connor has been the vet for my dogs for some time. When I go in there, I feel like I am part of a family. Everyone is so helpful. If possible, I schedule appointments for a Friday when Beth is there. There was an instant bond. All of the staff are so pleasant and accommodating. Yvonne Leger”
“I love this animal rescue ? in Newington. I saw this adorable male cat with striking coloring, so off I went on “Good Friday,” 2024.
I filled the application out fast and sloppy because (2) guys were behind me and they were also interested in this fine feline.
The decision was ultimately the cats.
Michu was hiding under a blanket on a chair in an office. After a slight “bribe,” ? with “Delectables,” he came down off the back of the chair and put his foot on the toe area of my shoe. He picked me and we all grinned with joy.
It was a textbook match-up.
He’s living have ROH and the carpeted stairs he flies up and down plus all the windows and places to play and hide-
He’s thriving and my heart is full-
Thank you for a lovely matching process.
Additional comment 10/2024-
When sitting with staff, going over medical sheet, make sure to take it from them and read it yourself. They conveniently left out: “He has a history of not eating?”
He had a radiograph X-ray showing his colon FULL of feces, and no enema was given. I’m having the worst time feeding him. He lived on Delectable’s while getting “fixed and chipped.” He barely ate and went 5 days without a BM! That’s a trip to the vet after 3 days.
Handing me Science Diet cans and kibble on the way out with, “he won’t eat it,” came to fruition with 9 brands.
I emailed their behavior specialist for advice. She thought I was trying to give him back but offered nothing on getting him to eat. It’s not his fault he wasn’t fed actual cat food, or cleared of his impacted colon. That’s a reason to not eat.
I took him to (2) vets and both asked “why didn’t they give him an enema?”
Doing what’s right isn’t always easy, but this was a set up for failure.
I’d end up on a “do not adopt,” sheet for something others failed to do.
Michu is use to this home and he’s comfortable and LOVED. He has tunnels and toys and a friend next door.
The food thing is still a point of contention.
READ THE MEDICAL REPORT in full so you can then ask questions that matter.
It’s not “full disclosure,” if they hide ailments from potential parents of pets.”

“Dear Fox Memorial Clinic, On 9/11/24 we had to put our very old and sick cat to sleep. I recently came into extremely difficult time financially. Our cat Harley really was going to die and suffer even if I had money to help him. The vet and assistant made this process so loving. We stayed in the room with Harley when he took his last breath.
It was so sad however they didn't rush us grieve and made the difficult time a little easier. I want to thank you from Monique Vanzuilen and Mike Kula.Please donate bc they are great people! For Xmas I will hopefully have a job and will be a donor..
Thank you”

“Our first visit to the Marlborough location of Glastonbury Animal Hospital! The staff is incredible and super friendly from the first phone call to walking in the door. Dr. White took his time with our sweet Scout and listened to me (without feeling rushed). So glad I heeded the advice of others. Choosing a vet is never easy, and I'm glad we found GAH right around the corner!!!”

“I cannot say enough good things about the staff at Catzablanca. I had to bring my new kitten in for an emergency visit and they were incredibly kind, understanding, and helpful. Cindy went above and beyond to put my mind at ease and help my little guy! So fortunate to have found a place that truly cares about my cat.”
“I am very relieved to have found Beaver Brook-The staff is wonderful! Because my Himalayan was so comfortable with them, I asked if they could attempt grooming him avoiding sedation, and they were able to! He was not at all anxious during both visits & we both had a great experience! ?”
“My pups have been patients at this practice for over 12 years. I do agree with some comments regarding pricing, however, they have always worked well with me to get appointments and in an emergency have been truly responsive. Dr Kumar has put down 3 of my pups when they no longer had a good quality of life and the experience was nothing but wonderful. Calm, caring, spent time with us and then let us sit with Kayla, Pookie and Yodi as long as we wished. I find the level of expertise on the surgical side is also incredible. A new vet was recently hired who I find to be very Simpatico. For those who don't know Spanish, it does not mean sympathetic. It is a term that has no direct translation into English but basically a nice, warm and caring attitude. My Amstaph is on an NSAID that can cause liver issues do I have to do frequent bloodwork which is great because her levels increased and we had to reduce the dosage so as not to cause severe liver damage. I find the front desk staff lovely. The office manager has been at the practice for two decades and has always been very kind and professional in my dealings.”
“The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and kind. I have never experienced an issue with Dr. Foccacia and any urgent issues
that I encountered with my dog he would be seen the same day. I’ve since moved from Berlin to Newington and Silver Lake Animal Hospital will remain my pups go to veterinary care. They were also very comforting when my Shih-poo passed away recently.”
“Dr keech is extremely knowledgeable and TRULLLLY cares about the animals AND the family..he will go ABOVE AND BEYOND to take care of the pets AND family...price$$ are VERY reasonable and the..
Amount of effort that the dr AND the staff put into taking care of our BABIES...BE HONEST YOU KNOW YOULL DO ANYYTING FOR YOUR ANIMAL/ BABY..? .is UNMATCHED by pretty much ANNNNYYYYONNNE that is a vet....GO TO DR KEECH....IFFFF YOU love your baby and EXPECT the same from the dr you'll be happy”
“I can't say enough positive things about Companion Animal Hospital and the incredible care provided by Dr. Mel and her team. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warmth and kindness, making both pets and their owners feel instantly at ease.
Dr. Mel's genuine compassion for animals shines through in every interaction. She takes the time to listen attentively to concerns and goes above and beyond to ensure both pet and owner understand the treatment plan. Her expertise and dedication are truly commendable.
What also impressed me was the efficiency of the service. Despite being thorough in their care, the team at Companion Animal Hospital works quickly and efficiently, minimizing any stress for both pets and their families.
I wholeheartedly recommend Companion Animal Hospital to anyone seeking top-notch veterinary care in a welcoming and compassionate environment. Dr. Mel and her team have created something truly special here, and I'm grateful to have such a fantastic resource in our community!”
