I brought my dog in last week to discuss some treatment options for the arthritis he has been experiencing over the last few months. During the examination the doctor was pulling on his leg and injured his hip. She seemed very unaware that she just injured him. I was hoping a vet would recognize something like that. Before I brought him in, he had a little bit of a limp that was barely noticeable once he got going. We have always been very active and were enjoying our twice daily walks up until his visit to VCA. I even took him hiking the weekend before his appointment. Now he is continuously hobbling around. He can't even walk 10 minutes without wanting to stop or lie down. I don't know if it quite constitutes negligence, but I am definitely mad at myself for even taking him in. I literally paid VCA to make my dog's ailment severely worse. Read Less

An incredible team of veterinarians and staff. I felt that Dr. Nannig personally cared about my pet's health. I have seen a few animal hospitals, but I am now fully loyal to VCA Brookline.

Really nice people every one. They made my puppy Akita feel loved and safe. I just wish they told me that I needed to show a coupon for my first initial visit to a VCA hospital. O assumed since everything was via email and they said it was confirming my appt the coupon would have been applied but it wasn't and when I called for them to put it in she said she would and never did. If my other pets didn't go there and my puppy didn't love them I would go to a different vet place hair because of that. But they are great people and helpful. Update: The office called me and assured they did credit me fore the initial visit. I am very thankful for them and would recommend anyone to go there for their furry baby. We will see the team in a few months. Thank you Read Less

The VCA Brookline Animal Hospital was absolutely wonderful. My little fur friend, Winston, was having some eye trouble and I was able to get an appointment in less than 24 hours. Dr. Groper was friendly, knowledgable, and treated us like family. He was patient and gentle with Winston and talked me through everything he did in the exam. The prices were fair, but the quality of care was what topped it all. They even called a few days after the visit to check in on Winston! Coming from a family of veterinarians, the VCA exceeded my high expectations. Thank you so much for taking such good care of us! We will definitely be returning for any future needs! Read Less

VCA Brookline always takes my dogs health seriously and sets up appointments asap. Love the hospital manager. Worked with 2 different Vets and very impressed with their demeanor and how they approach the dogs. Only reason this isn't a 5 star review is I get a bit of sticker shock with the bill - pretty expensive, but as I'm new to Boston, I'm not sure if this is normal here.Read Less

Dr. Groper and his team are amazing; they turn vet visits into enjoyable experiences for the pets-- giving treats, kisses, belly rubs. You can tell these people love their jobs!

Have boarded my dog here a half dozen times and the staff is attentive and loves dogs. The vet services are thorough for annual check ups. They price match online sites for pet meds.

Holy cow!! I had a great experience at VCA BAH today! I made a huge mistake and took my pup in a week early for her appointment. Unfortunately, the vet we met with our first time, Dr. Feldman wasn't available (which makes sense, because I totally messed up), but the front desk staff was able to find an available vet (Jillian I-Forget-Her-Last-Name, sorry!) who was able to see us within fifteen minutes! Everyone was so helpful and made sure that my pup got the proper care, made sure that all of my questions were answered, and were able to accommodate our needs! Thank you so, so much!! Read Less

My partner and I took our dog, Connor, here on recommendation from a friend. We had previously been going to Cambridge Veterinary Care, but when he tested positive for heart worm (we had just rescued him a few weeks prior), the vet there told me that not only did they not have the necessary medication for him, but that he probably wasn't going to even be able to get it. He took more than a full week to even get back to me with a treatment plan. Our experience at VCA Brookline has been completely different. They're friendlier, more flexible, better prepared, more knowledgable, and show more concern for their patients. Dr. Groper confirmed the heart worm diagnosis prescribed a month of Doxycycline to kill a bacteria that strengthens the worms and sterilize them, which we went home with. He said they had Immiticide in stock, and even if they didn't, he'd order some and it would be in by the time Connor's next appointment was due in a month. Preventing heart worm is easy, but treating it is hard. Dr. Groper and VCA made this a smooth process and as painless as possible. He personally followed up with me after working hours, and several times called me in the evenings from his cell to make sure Connor was handling the treatment well. I recommend this pet hospital to absolutely anyone and will continue to take my animals to them as long as I can. Read Less
