 Testimonials

We went to Wachusett Animal Hospital after calling around and realizing their prices were more than a third less then other emergency hospitals. We will go back because of the great care they provided for Mr. Meowman and to me. They exceeded any expectations I had.

When my dog Tucker was having trouble breathing last year (on Sunday) a call to our "vet" referred us to another vet 45+ minutes away! I said screw it, called Wachusett Animal who told us to come right away. Sadly Tucker died en route, but when we got to Wachusett they took him in, gave us a lovely paw print memento and treated us with respect for our loss. A few days later we received a lovely sympathy card from them, and we weren't even their clients! Needless to say, when we do get another pet, we will go to Wachusett!

Thank you for the compassion and sympathy given to me when I brought my beloved Sammie to you during the storm. It was so comforting. What I appreciated most was the kind words from the two people I spoke to on the phone while en route. I will gladly tell everyone how great this place is. Thank you
