“It is quite hectic in the waiting area, but we went outside for a walk when that happened. Just make sure the front desk knows, so that the people came after you dont go before you! They are quick and efficient and everyone is nice.”

“Dr. Keyes has been phenomenal to work with in caring for my 17 year old cat. She is quick to respond, kind, and extremely helpful. Being able to have Better Vet come and do an exam and blood work at home was a game changer.”
“My pets have always received exceptional care at Parkway Veterinary Hospital. Dr. Lysz and all the Veterinary Technicians I have seen are terrific. I have full confidence in their care and judgement.”
“One of my cats is super aggressive and gets turned away at vets but the vets here did a great job at handling her with care and made us feel supported. They were able to give her vaccines and bloodwork while allowing me to distract her.”
“Our nervous and anxious dog has always had a hard time going to the vet, but we’ve finally found a place that is able to treat him without him experiencing a panic attack. What they are doing works wonders!
In terms of pricing, it is reasonable, I appreciate the treatment and prices so much so to drive out of my way +35 without traffic.
Highly recommend!”
“In the past few months I have had to visit Cambridge Street Hospital for my 1 year old dog and 9 year old dog for various different reasons. Each and every time the staff that answer the phones are knowledgeable, helpful and efficient getting my pups seen when needed. They are so kind and welcoming upon our arrival. I have seen two different vets there and they both have been skilled and compassionate and are diligent with their follow up. I highly recommend Cambridge Street Animal Hospital for all your preventative and urgent animal needs.”
“Saugus Animal Hospital and Dr. Anderson are the very best! I've been bringing my cats there for years and they always go above and beyond. The care they receive is thorough and complete and never rushed. All questions are answered and I recommend them 100%.”
“Brought my 10 week old lab for her first appointment. Every staff member I met was so kind, courteous, and knowledgeable. We saw Dr. Warman who was very personable yet still very professional. I have nothing but good things to say and would recommend Central Animal Hospital to anyone with a pet.”
“Melrose Animal Clinic has such friendly staff and providers! They’re always so sweet and friendly not only to us humans, but they truly care about the pets they’re examining!
Our two cats, Feather and Twinkie, are not fans of vet visits, but they quickly know they’re in good hands as soon as the exams begin. Our Feather is missing a back paw so I really appreciate our provider feeling her leg and joint to ensure Feather has a great life!
The PetDesk app that Melrose Animal Clinic offers is user friendly and helps us keep our appointments and information organized for each kitty! Thank you to all the staff at Melrose Animal Clinic!”
“Has the best customer service I've ever experienced with a vet. My cat was recently diagnosed with stage 2 chronic kidney disease. They have been beyond helpful in answering all my questions, telling me which food to switch him to and what care he will need. They turned my panic about this diagnoses to a calm. Really happy I decided to take my cats to this vet. 100% recommend them.”

“We were seen by the doctor promptly and cordially performed administration of shots as well as a quick, efficient exam of my new family member. Whole staff seemed to be enjoying in caring for the patients as well as assisting me with placing my puppy in my car”
“Pinto is a very sweet dog with very high anxiety around veterinary treatment, specifically onset during the COVID pandemic. Back Bay Veterinary Clinic -- and Dr. Graham in particular -- has been SO wonderful in working with us to figure out the best way to make sure he is calm and comfortable so that he can get the care he needs! I recommend Back Bay Vet to ALL of my friends with pets, but especially anyone with a ~* special *~ dog like Pinto.”
“Staff @ Animal Hospital are amazing. Care they always provide for Bella Diamond is top notch. Vets techs & ladies @ front desk are so attentive patient & caring. So worth going there. I would highly recommend taking your pets there.”
“I moved to Boston in June 2023 and was referred to South Bay by our dog walker. From the beginning we have found the team and veterinarians to be compassionate, responsive and skilled on their care of our two dogs. Recently our 12 year old retriever mix has had health issues and I’m sad to say that yesterday we had to make the difficult decision to euthanize her. Dr Baker was so incredibly kind and patiently talked us through options, gave us privacy to make the decision, and allowed us to gather the family to be with our beloved dog as she crossed the rainbow bridge. I am grateful to have had this support during this sad time and going forward to care for our other dog.”
“NEVER have I EVER seen a vet being so invested, so thorough, so caring about my dog. I am in awe..I came here for a second opinion for my dogs health issue, before simply accepting what my original vet said, and man am I glad I did. Dr Levine went above & beyond to make sure that he had researched ALL options before letting my dog undergo surgery, and guess what? He doe not necessarily need surgery - Dr Levine had alternatives, very well thought out alternatives that he carefully discussed eith me, and I just could not be happier! Thank you!!”
“Doctor Binder is truly amazing! Her compassion and kindness for her patients goes beyond words I could explain. She talks to them as if they were her own. She is very honest and will not do unnecessary testing without discussing all pros and cons first. I travel over 30 minutes to bring my cats and dog to her. The staff in the office are so nice and overall the most perfect vet office in my opinion. The one or two times I urgently had to bring my cat in and Dr Binder wasn’t there, the other vet in the office was just as kind. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.”
“Dr. Leslie is the absolute best vet we've ever had, and her staff are friendly, caring, and so helpful. Best vet office ever... we wouldn't want to bring our cats anywhere else!”
“We have 2 dogs that are frequent flyers at MetroVet. Everyone is so caring with my pups and always helpful with my many phone calls with questions. My dogs are very nervous and we’ve had experiences with other vets where I wasn’t allowed in the exam room or they just didn’t seem to care about my dogs being comfortable there. Here I get to stay with them and they take things slow at their pace and give lots of good treats. We also go right into the exam room and never have to deal with other dogs being too close to us which is also a plus. My dogs love the staff here! ❤️”
“We love City Cats! We've gone there for a few years now, and the staff has always been kind and helpful. We actually moved to the South Shore but still keep our appointments with City Cats, because they're that good. Dr. Palopoli and the other staff are so caring and I've always found the whole practice transparent in terms of pricing and test options. I've never felt 'taken advantage of' like I have in the past at other practices. Highly recommend :)”
“Dr Hanson and her amazing team cared for my dog for the last 15 years including many tough times. When he was attacked in the woods years ago Dr Hanson saved his life (fixing what an emergency vet did wrong). she treated seizures and did dental surgery and always cared for him with love. She is a very special Vet, your pets will be lucky to have her watching over them. Thank you Dr Hanson !”
“We were very happy with Dr. Chelsea. She had obviously spent time reviewing our questionnaire and listened to our concerns attentively. She thoroughly answered all our questions and explained the reasons behind her recommendations clearly. Everyone was great! The woman who checked us in was very accommodating. Slider seemed to have a rude fascination with Rita (I hope I'm remembering her name correctly), yet she was nonplussed and handled it well. As I mentioned, Dr. Chelsea was fabulous. And two other staff members even pitched in at the end to corral Slider when he attempted a jail break. Overall, the vibe was very calm and welcoming.”

“We have been going to Merlin for years! The staff is awesome and the care they give to our cat and dog is great and very reasonable. FYI- They only take cash so come prepared.”
“My dog had to have extensive dental work done today and Dr. Sorbo and staff did a wonderful job. Not only a great job was done but Dr. Sorbo went above and beyond our needs. Thank you very much Mill Brook Animal Clinic, especially Dr. Sorbo.”
“If I could give them 20 stars, I would. This place and these people are GOD SENDS. My two little dogs are my whole world and they have taken such incredible care of them, I have cried out of gratitude. I moved here from out of state and I couldn’t get in any vet for months. When my one dog needed potentially emergent surgery they squeezed her in the next day and we have been going there ever since. I love these people and am so incredibly grateful for them.”
“The staff was courteous, knowledgeable and compassionate. Although the news was not what we were expecting/hoping, we were treated with such care. The follow-up the next day, on the Doctor’s day off, was greatly appreciated. The only thing that could have been better was the wait times….unfortunately that was out of any one’s hands. Thank you so much!”
“I found this place because I had been going to the same Brookline vet group for 17 years and it has steadily been going downhill but I was loyal and don’t like change. When my dog became really sick - I had to find a place that was organized, calm & competent to try and save my dogs life. Ultimately, lily passed away but the wonderful care she received & the kindness that was shown to me was like night and day compared to my previous vet. I can’t believe I waited so long to switch to a different vet / practice. Thank you chestnut hill for doing everything you could for Lilly & I. The receptionist/administrator, vet techs & veterinarians were so nice to us during a very sad and stressful time.”
“The nicest sweetest vets, technicians and receptionists around the area even when the pet owners can be a bit crazy or stressed! Thank you for always being there for us!”
“Just want to send in a thank you to Dr. Morawski and the team for managing and following up multiple times about my cat’s condition. The whole staff (we have 3 pets) has been nothing but kind and helpful. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a vet in the area.”
“I live in Woburn and have switched my two puppies to from 2 different vets to finally the 3rd wich is Reading animal clinic . They have been the best to us as a family and our pups! Communication is amazing , there ER on call service is amazing ! The hours they hold are so great for working dog parents . The staff is always so pleasant and friendly . Weather I’m going in personally for an appt or calling for a concern or
Question , this vet office is always a pleasant experience they really are great there and I highly recommend them !”
“Dr. TRCZINSKI is wonderful. She cares for my dog and makes sure I get all my questions answered. She is the reason that I go out of my way to go to this practice”
