I have been bringing my dogs to this Clinic for 9 years. Not only do I trust the staff and all the vets with their care but love how things are explained. I like to know what options of treatment are available for my pets. Also they were extremely kind and compassionate when I had to put my dog to sleep. Dr Shields did everything for my dog when he was sick including researching the newest methods in treatment and consulting specialist, always checking in to see how he was doing. The technicians are top of their field both in safe compassionate care and in their ability to explain complex medical issues. Not to mention the front desk staff is always welcoming and helpful. It is the best combination of customer service and medicine I have ever experienced. As for the price you get what you pay for which is exceptional service and medical expertise. Read Less

We love the Medfield Vet Clinic and specifically, Dr. Julie Shields is absolutely amazing. She has cared for our two dogs and cats over the years. We had to put our oldest dog down, back in September, and Dr. Shields actually came out to our house the SAME day I called! She has gone above and beyond all our expectations. She is kind, compassionate, bright, honest and thorough. The rest of the staff has always been pleasant. We have never had a bad experience at this clinic. Read Less

This was a homeless cat when I found him and brought him into the veterinary clinic. He was treated gently and the atmosphere made him feel comfortable. He was given the standard tests and also a pill to get rid of stomach worms. I'm giving this review 3/5 stars because the lead veterinarian suggested the cat could be put to sleep given he tested positive for FIV. This is a disease that is the human equivalent of HIV; however, it only effects cats and cannot be transmitted to other animals or humans. It would require a deep bite wound to transmit. I have one other cat who is a girl cat who was also homeless when I brought her in that I've had for 4 years. I've kept the cats completely separated for the 6 months I've had the cat pictured, but I was lucky to do my own research about FIV and found case study's have found it is generally not transmitted among groups of cats and cats are generally safe among FIV cats; otherwise I would have sought to give the cat up to another foster care-giver while informing them of the condition. The cat is full of love, wisdom, and life. He was quiet and kind from the time I brought him in, but also incredibly strong for a cat. He had one bad incident during times when I was moving in tandem from different living locations and he was frequently in and out of a carrying case. FIV however does not effect moods, just the health of the immune system. He has been a wonderful cat and had a positive effect on my life. I suggest that the veterinarians do additional research on this topic and look for alternative solutions that can be met to cats under this condition. It would have been in hindsight an incredibly sad loss. This cat most certainly deserved a home and a full life. Read Less

We began going to Dr. Crowell ten years ago with our first dog, Jake. Today they take the best care of our two labs who think they are going on a playdate when they walk into the office. Dr. Crowell and his staff always call to follow up after a procedure, surgery or sick visit. I had a poor experience with a previous vet who made our first dog very nervous, but Dr. Crowell and his staff turned that around for him and have become the only place I would take our dogs. I highly recommend them.Read Less

I also don't care for how they communicate their diagnosis--very clinical. You must also know that their prices are higher when compared to other vets in the area.
