I have been going to Litchfield Vet for almost 17 years now. Their service is the absolute best in the area, hands down.

They saved my girl TWICE. Dr. Carey is a doctor I'd want for myself. She is calm, extreamly knowledgeable, and even curious when a mystery comes up. She waits for test results before giving any indication of diagnosis. I am so grateful to her for saving my little love when we were hit with two seemingly lethal mysteries in less than a few months. Yes, she now lives with chronic kidney failure and we can't be 100% sure what actually happened (had surgery for a mass and then was possibly poisioned just after recovering!!) But shes here, shes playing, shes gained all her weight back, and she seems years younger. I have my girl back after so many people were sure I was going to loose her. I'm so grateful Read Less

I have been very impressed with the range and quality of service from this veterinary office. From the front office, the waiting room to the the vet who has helped me every aspect of this clinic/hospital runs smoothly and professionally. My last dealing with this clinic was to get International Health Certificates for traveling to another country for my five cats. At the time I was living in New York but they are one of the few clinics that preform this service. Because of the distance I was traveling the office opened early to accomodate me and to reduce the stress on my cats. The exams and paperwork were preformed with knowledge and proficency and their kindness they showed towards myself and my animals was outstanding. Due to my having multiple animals I was given a discount on my bill without being asked. I would not hesitate to use Litchfield Veterinary Hospital again...and again...and again. Read Less

We had a good experience initially here but ensuing visits have been unhappy ones. And while we don't doubt the intent or the care for animals here, we've found the financial aspects of the operation to be quite shameful. Services are on the costly side here; there are less expensive veterinarians in the area (we were quoted about $1,200 for some dental expenses, while another high-quality vet quoted us nearly half that price). The final straw came seven weeks after our dog had a full exam and some shots and needed to return for two additional shots. The vet required us to pay for yet another full exam before approving the shots. That strikes us as a pretty greedy way to operate. As we said, we're not questioning the quality of care, only the energies directed toward getting more money out of patients. We believe others ought to be aware of how they operate, based on our experiences. Read Less

The compassion and quality care that this group of dedicated women provide is priceless. Dr. Carey has turned my 14 year old Boston Terrier's life completely around. She diagnosed her with Cushing's disease, and with her knowledge and expertise with this disease has given Isabella more time with us. As soon as you walk into the Hospital you are instantly reassured that you just made the best decision for quality healthcare for your VIP pet! Love these ladies!! Read Less

Visited the vet today. Had to put our Oliver down. He was a very cooool cat. He had great parents though so I'm not surprised. Chick aka Mike Baker, Emma Baker, Rebecca Marie Baker & Kailey Stewart took great care of him. This was a tough evening and we're all still saddened at the loss of him but, I feel it is so important to thank, out loud, the care givers at Litchfield veterinary hospital. Heather assisted through the entire procedure and she gave the utmost comfort to both Oliver, me and, my kids. She spoke softly to him, handled him gently and her tears were a sign of the empathy she had for us. We were given as much time as needed prior to and following the procedure. Heather held Oliver, with my son, through the whole thing. We're thankful to Dr Rachel Ammiratta to Amanda, Miranda and the entire staff whose names we did not get but, had kind words for all of us. A HUGE Thank you Litchfield Veterinary Hospital. Lastly, I'm sorry Oliver. you are already missed. We will take good care of your little brother Richard, don't you worry.Read Less

In the past few months, three of our four pets have visited Litchfield Vet Hospital for anything from vaccines, to surgery, to medical boarding. Dr. Ammirata, Dr. Carey, and their staff have been nothing but kind, patient, and gentle with our animals. We are appreciative of the care they have provided for our beloved dogs and cats. They have a huge reception area with a separate area for cats. Their exam rooms are nice and clean. Very helpful and friendly front desk staff as well! Read Less

Over the last 15+ years these wonderful folks have enriched our lives and the lives of our fuzz-babies. We've adopted 2 great cats from LVH and confidently kept them and our 3 chihuahuas and a chihoodle in their loving care. Professionalism and extraordinary care have guided us through crises and laughter and heartbreak, always helping us to make informed decisions and treating us and our animals with the utmost respect and kindness.

When our previous veterinarian retired, we were panicking as to who we go to with our beloved Boston Terrier and Chiweenie. Panic no more! We feel so blessed to have our fur kids become patients of Dr. Carey. She is phenomenal as is the entire staff at Litchfield Veterinary Hospital! Our Boston who is 13 has had so many health issues over the course of her life. Within one month of transferring our dogs care to Dr. Carey, she diagnosed our Boston with Cushing's disease and an immediate treatment program has begun. We already notice an improvement in our senior dog. Thank you Dr. Carey and staff from the bottom of our hearts. See you soon!! Read Less

I also bring my dog Bella here and they treat her as if she was one of their own ! Read Less

As a certified technician LVH is a great place to apply my skills and expand my knowledge. I have learned so much from Dr. Carey and Dr. Battista over the 15 years I have known them. First and foremost, I am a pet owner and they have provided exceptional care to all of my pets throughout the years. I truly believe that their longevity is in part due to the care they received. Thank you for all you do! Read Less
