edit as of 8/24/2025: it’s been months, and he’s only getting better. i haven’t seen him this active and happy in countless months, and i could never be more thankful that we chose here.
another edit, 9/14/2025. months later, still on the up and up.
as of october 18th, cheeseballs has passed away, but the last few months he had were surrounded with the most love and affection he could ever receive. without the extraordinary people at BVH, we wouldn’t have been afforded that opportunity. once again, thank you.

Belchertown Veterinary Hospital is exceptionally efficient, patient, and compassionate. The staff consistently demonstrates deep knowledge and genuine care—not only for dogs and cats but also for small animals like our parakeets. They take the time to explain procedures clearly, answer every question thoughtfully, and ensure that both pets and owners feel comfortable and supported. The level of professionalism and empathy shown here sets a standard that’s hard to find elsewhere. We wouldn’t trust any other place with our birds.

I see Dr. Alperson for my guinea pigs and mice. She is super knowledgeable in these less common pets, and is extremely compassionate and caring. She understands how much these tiny animals mean to me, and is skilled in handling even the most squirmy. I couldn’t recommend her enough! The staff on the phone and at the desk is also so kind. You even receive a card signed by everyone in the office when having to say goodbye to a pet.
saved my guinea pigs life. eternally grateful.
