Veterinarians near Harvard

“I am an actual client of Harvard Family Pet Clinic and have been for 2 years. I can say that the misinformation being posted about Dr. Koretsky couldn’t be farther from the truth, and that the people leaving negative comments have not ever been to this clinic, nor do they even live in the same state.I came on here to share my input as Dr. K is not only my veterinarian but she has become my friend in the 2 years that I have been her client, and it is hurtful to see people spreading lies about her and her business. Dr. Koretsky is an advocate for all animals, including service animals being used correctly. Since leaving my original review (below), I have adopted a second kitten and continue to go to Harvard Family Pet. In the years that I have known her, she has been nothing but a fantastic veterinarian, and I would not go anywhere else. The comments from my original review remain, and I also want to add that Dr. K takes the time on her days off to help me when I need assistance or have questions. I don’t know of anyone who has a veterinarian that they can contact on a day off and/or over the weekend, and get a fast response. I would give her 100/5 stars if I could!! She has done countless things outside of her normal business hours to ensure my pets are receiving the best care, and that is the type of person she actually is. I hope that anyone reading negative comments about the clinic will not let that deter them from choosing this clinic for their pets, and will listen to an actual client. My pets are literally my children and I would not trust anyone else with them. My cats are both healthy and thriving.My original review is below:I adopted my first kitten almost a year and a half ago, and chose this pet clinic because I was looking for a smaller practice. As a first-time cat mom, I had a million questions at the beginning, and still continue to have ongoing questions about the best way to care for my cat. He is my baby, and I always want to make sure I am doing the very best for him. Dr. K and Kayla have always been super helpful and patient with me. They always take the time to explain anything and everything to me, whether it is in-person, via email, or over the phone. I am experiencing a lot of things for the first time, so I like that they don't make me feel silly for asking questions, and are always available to make recommendations. I never feel rushed during appointments, as they take the necessary time to provide care and make sure any questions are explained. A few months back, I had an emergency with my cat and they were available to answer my questions after-hours, got me scheduled first thing the following morning, provided an emergency room referral, followed-up with the emergency vet, and handled my pet insurance claim (immediately). I am very happy with this pet clinic, and I feel that I would not get the same level of care at a larger facility. They are very prompt with getting back to me whenever needed, flexible with scheduling appointments, and have very fair prices. I trust them completely with the care for my baby, and I highly recommend this vet clinic!“

“Friendly, professional, and well informed. Not the cheapest, but more than reasonable and they are happy to talk about costs beforehand. Therefore, a great value for your furry (or scaly or slimy) loved ones.“

“The best veterinarian experience I’ve ever had. We drive 45 min just to come to Compassionate Care. All staff members are friendly and truly compassionate. Our cat has had issues that other veterinarians couldn’t fix. Only the compassionate care team has been able to find the right balance for him. I would highly recommend this vet for all cats.“

“While visiting in the Groton area, my almost 16 year young pup developed a UTI (urinary tract infection). It's not generally an emergency condition, but in a senior dog, it could progress quickly. I'd called several veterinary offices in the area, but none could see us for a few days because we weren't pre-registered clients.When I called Veterinary Health Care of Groton, they were willing to fit us in that afternoon. I can't say enough good things about all of the staff. I was concerned that my pup would be uncomfortable on the hard floor & suddenly, a fleece blanket appeared for her! Dr. Thomas & her staff handled my pup gently & were very attentive to me & respectful of my concerns. I believe we received wonderful service for the cost of the visit,especially for a last-minute appointment.I had explained that we were just visiting in the area, but we were treated like long-term, valued clients. If you need veterinary care in Groton, I'd definitely consider this office!“

“We are so grateful for Dr. Parkis and the whole team at Integrative! We've had our puppy for a year or so, and have had a handful of visits; and every time, we have been treated with the utmost kindness, compassion, and friendliness. Have you ever seen a dog wagging its' tail, happily walking into their vets office? Ours always does - I think that says more than words can!“

“Great local vet. Expert care practices. We have 2 dogs and a cat and i wouldnt take them anywhere else.“

“Great veterinarians that provide top notch care for our pets. Always clean, organized and professional.“

“We have been going to Dr. Norelli for over 30 years, since his predecessor Dr. Coates retired. He is an experienced, caring vet whose approach to treatment is always practical and compassionate. Our cats he has seen over the many years — Buster, Lewis, Clark, Patrick, Wally, and Tony — give him a big paws up!“

“I moved to the area recently and am so happy to have found Clinton Veterinary Hospital! The staff is always so kind and helpful. Additionally, whenever I have needed to book an appointment, I am able to get one right away. I highly recommend!!!“

“Littleton Animal Hospital really, truly cares about their patients, and it shows in their quality of care. The fear-free aspect of this veterinary hospital changed the game for my dog. He used to quiver in fear in the corner just for a check-up, and Littleton Animal Hospital has helped transform him to be comfortable and actively participate in cooperative care.Myself and my pets have been patrons here since 2012, and they have been nothing but respectful, communicative, and thoughtful throughout every interaction. It is so evident that the staff here prioritizes patient needs.“

“Dr Baran is very skilled and compassionate. Our very distrustful kitty was so calm and relaxed with him and allowed him to examine her with complete trust. He diagnosed her and treated her and her infection cleared up very quickly. I am eternally grateful. We thought we were going to lose her and we are so relieved.“

“The folks here are AMAZING. My 3 year old cat Violet had to have a full mouth extraction and they walked me through the entire process and kept in touch with me throughout the procedure and took great care of her. They really care about what they do and all of them were so kind. I highly recommend this place“

“I’ve been coming to this practice for about 3 years now, first with my cat then with my English bulldog. We’ve seen both Dr. Mockler and Dr. Roe and both were absolutely fantastic. My bulldog is a frequent flyer and they always take amazing care of her! They answered all my questions and were always super responsive to any of my concerns regarding my pets health. The front desk staff is super friendly, accommodating, and pleasant as well. We just moved out of the area and are so sad to leave this practice but I’d highly recommend them to anyone in the area!!!“

“They have always been so good for Cookie and Toby! Everyone from vets, Dr. P, Foster, and Halverson to vet techs, and front staff couldn't be better!“

“Dr. Craig Smith and the staff at Nashoba Valley Veterinary Hospital are always kind and compassionate with our kitties. We have used their services for over 20 years and highly recommend them.“

“The best. Caring, attentive, honest. Never condescending, pushy, or rude like my previous vet that has locations in Marlborough and Berlin.“

“Dr. James Bolger and his staff at Clinton Veterinary Hospital are simply the best. They are incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated to providing the best possible care for our furry friends. We have been bringing our pets to Dr. Bolger for several years, and we have always been impressed with his expertise and bedside manner. He takes the time to listen to our concerns and explain our pets' treatments in a way that we can understand. He is also always willing to answer our questions and provide us with support. The rest of the staff at Clinton Veterinary Hospital are equally wonderful. They are all friendly, efficient, and caring. They make sure that our pets are comfortable and well-cared for at all times. We highly recommend Dr. Bolger and his staff to anyone looking for a veterinarian who truly cares about their pets.“
