Over the years my cats have received excellent care from Dr. Kelloway and her team.  She was able to diagnose a condition in one of my senior cats that all other vets I'd been to had failed to diagnose and saved his life.  The facility is clean, modern and the vets and techs that have cared for my cats have all been kind and capable.  My cats are my kids so I'm pretty discerning about where I go and so far I've always been impressed with AVC.

I brought my baby Squeakz to AVC @ 1am on April 12 2018. He was showing strange and not normal behavior for a kitten or himself. They reffered me to CareCredit because i didnt have the money for his ER visit. Which carecredit is a 27% intrest rate after 6months. I was very happy with the Vet and Vet Tech (Cheryl Faso & Kala S) They treated squeakz like their own lil baby and tried to figure out everything they could for me and for my lil man. I was a little perplexed/upset when the vet came out explaining that all of his screening were clear and they couldnt find exactly what was wrong with him expt that he doesnt seem to be able to comprehend what he is seeing. The vet informed me alot about problems kittens could have/get. Thankfully i took vettech @ my agricultural school because if i didnt i wouldnt know what the heck she was saying/explaining. I believe the price i was quoted was very high since i was sent home without knowing what exactly was wrong with him. I took their advice tho and am now giving him a new balanced kitten diet and his meds and also keeping him properly hydrated. Hes still showing very strange sighns and isnt seeming to get better but its only been a day. Overall i was happy with how profecinal and caring the ER staff was. I most likly wont be bringing my animal back here tho. Again i left not knowing what was wrong with my baby and for them just to stick him with needles and give him fluids it cost $452.53. The other thing i was a little mad about was that the vet told me if within 24hrs he turns for the worse i can bring him back free of charge. I called this morning April 13 2018 and the women said ONLY the check up is Free and they would quote me if he needs any work done. I feel like they just screwed me out of money but atleast i know now hes not going to die and hes on meds that will help him. I was also very unsettled by the comments the owner of the practice has been making on the comments, be careful what you comment because the owner will put all yoyr info and what happen to the animal out there. Which is actually illegal. Read Less

This douchebag will never accept accountability even after her license is pulled. I hope the attorney general’s office gets involved and that criminal charges are forth coming. I further hope that a civil judgement is issued against her she is forced to repay all of the victims the money they wasted on her sham services. I know that Kelloway gave an excuse that she “forgot” to renew or was unaware that her license expired. This is a lie because it has been brought the her attention by myself and several of the other customers that are suing her months before the board got involved. Completely UNETHICAL and repulsive business practices. I was told that the reason she was cheaper is because the surgeons don't have the same credentials as most vets. I didn't see this as a major problem at the time, but it was. Almost $7K later, I find out the surgery was not successful and they wanted me to pay another $3K to correct the surgery they botched. They became very verbally abusive when I refused to immediately cough up the cash and called the police when I walked out with my dog. Let there be no confusion - Kelloway botched the surgery. She used a steel plate which was not a durable material, or the plate was faulty all together - the finding of and independent vet that worked for the Lowell police. I then had to take my dog to a qualified vet (board certified) and pay to have the surgery done correctly - using a titanium plate as he said should have been done in the first place. (recommended by the Animal Rescue League at a much cheaper price). I never at any point told her I couldn’t afford services. She was simply advised that she shouldn’t be paid twice for the same service to be performed, legally that’s undue enrichment. If they mess up your coffee order at Dunkin Donuts in the morning, do you pay for 2 coffees? No, they correct their mistake, and you pay for the one coffee. In the situation with Kelloway, I paid for a coffee I never received, and then she refused to refund my money. She then sent me a letter in the mail threatening to have me charged with "Theft of Services" if I don't pay them an additional $246 within 14 days. When my credit card company called them immediately after and asked them to over the phone to redo the surgery for dog, they laughed in the customer service rep's face and told him they wouldn't do anything without full payment upfront. The owner asserts below there was an offer of pain medication made at the time of the incident, but as they were only concerned with obtaining payment. Fortunately I did have quite a bit of Tramadol left. This woman is a callous, money hungry sociopath willing to say anything to prevent a review from having a negative financial impact on her business. Granted the circumstances of what happened to my dog were unfortunate. I cooperated with the police to have the perpetrator charged with 2 felony counts of animal abuse and will be testifying against him at his trial. But there is absolutely no excuse for Kelloway to have used the circumstances of the case to try to cover up for her malpractice. When you look at all of negative reviews, believe them. My experience with this woman was a nightmare. And I was told by my lawyer her name has come across his desk more than a couple of times. I’m not sure if she is completely immoral, or mentally ill. Either way you’re better off not finding out and taking your business to a reputable vet. Also, please take note that as soon as she recieves a well deserved negative review such as this, she immediately asks her staff to create fake google profiles and write fake 5 Star reviews. I agree with all the negative reviews stating she could "care less." It's horrible that someone so unscrupulous should be allowed to remain in business. The unprofessional conduct of herself and employees are a disservice to the public and should be stopped. This loser is guilty of victimizing the victims. Read Less

This is one of the worst places. Took my dog in last night for first the room they said was empty it wasn't. Then the next room they put us in was dirty still from the hair all over the floor and dried pee from the previous animal in there. I couldn't ever find anyone to answer questions or know what was going on including someone at the front desk. They forgot to do tests and had to come back and get my dog multiple times and afterwards said my dogs viscious because the last tests he wasn't happy about and they had to sedate him. Along w spending 600 they didn't explain much to me and said I had to bring him in the next day for an ultrasound that would cost me more money. Set the appt up. Got called twice at 4 am when I was home sleeping with no message. Called the next morning to find out y they called for them to have no idea who called or y and that they no longer are taking my business after I payed them all this money and nothing done to help my dog. Asked to talk to a manager or have a manager call me for them to b rude and tell me no one was going to call me back.

All of my dogs have been accurately diagnosed and successfully treated by Dr. Kelloway. First kid: My girl was vomiting continuously. Brought her to my regular vet....they had her for about a day to re-hydrate her... took x-rays and found an "obstruction" in her intestines-hence the vomiting. They sent me to one of the emergency clinics in the area. When I got there I was immediately given a quote of $6,300-$6,500 for her emergency surgery-had not even examined my girl yet. They were not even going to take their own x-rays first....just gave me a bill and said that "the surgery needed to be done immediately." Something didn't feel right and I wanted a third opinion so I took her to Dr. Kelloway as I had before for another fur-kid, and we found that not only did my girl not need the surgery, Dr. Kelloway diagnosed her with stomach worms (common from dogs who have come up from the south.) She was given meds to clear them up and she was good to go. She's been healthy ever since. Second kid; Brought my boy to my vet due to what looked like broken blood capillaries in his gums. My vet was not sure what it was, so I bypassed the last ER clinic I had first gone to for my girl and brought him to Dr. Kelloway. After an ultrasound to confirm that his intestines were clear of any cancers or abnormalities, she properly diagnosed him with ITP-a blood disease due to a possible tick bite-got him on meds...he is a big healthy boy and doing well.Third kid: My middle child. He has a situation with his knee known as Luxating Patella... he was limping badly so I brought him in to see Dr. Kelloway...she was able do a couple of xrays and then gave me some options for treatment. He is now doing very well (we opted out of the surgery due to risks of eventually injuring the other knee and chose to exercise the knee each day (our physical therapy sessions at home.)Dr. Kelloway is the reason why my three kids are alive and well. Period. Read Less

I cannot recommend Dr. Kelloway and team enough!  The first time I met her was in 2010 when we had a vet emergency.  After that, I transferred my cats and dogs from each of their vets and made AVC Manchester our vet of choice.  Where to begin?  They're accessible 24/7, are far more affordable than either vet I had been going to, and have all the tools on hand that most vets don't.  We've had our host of health issues and Dr. Kelloway has always been extremely thoughtful and willing to research and suggest alternative therapies.  She has been my miracle worker - most recently treating my cat for a severe ulceration in her eye, sparing me a visit to a $pecialist and not just suggesting the easy way out (removal), but giving a new course of treatment a try.  Once again, she worked her magic!   Going to AVC is like visiting family - my dogs have since passed, however, the care that they showed towards them and currently my cats is exceptional.  For Dr. Kelloway, you can tell it isn't just a job - she genuinely cares for each animal.  Lastly, I have always found that they will assist in triage over the phone to spare you a visit if they can determine it can wait - that to me says integrity, as they could just as easily say come in and charge for the visit.  A good number to keep on hand in case of emergency!

Absolute worst place , NEEDS to be shut down. Brought my cat in for a wound they claimed he had a small infection (maybe she wasn't 100%) they ended up giving him a pain reliever shot, and sent us home with antibiotics and told me he'd be fine within a few days and not to worry..so I went home gave him his antibiotics like they told me to ..we got home at 8pm Saturday my cat was DEAD by 7am Sunday.. Brought him back and they have no idea why he died(bullshit) so I looked over his paperwork they gave me.. They said he was purring, they said they took his temperature (THEY NEVER DID) but they claim it was 101.2 . And also had a bunch of other things written that they said they did but didn't do!! So I decided to look up the shot they gave him and it says it shouldn't be mixed with ANY other meds but they had me go home and give him antibiotics .. I am 100% sure they killed him (slowly) this cat was only 4 and never had any medical problems not even a cold ever in his life! All and all I spent $200+ and they could care less, didn't even offer to get my money back. HORRIBLE. After telling people my story I have heard at least 10 horror stories of this place where at least 4 pets ended up deceased .. Please do not go here .. Drive 5 more mins up the road ! Read Less

I cannot recommend Dr. Kelloway and team enough! The first time I met her was in 2010 when we had a vet emergency.

I came in with my black lab with symptoms that at most vets would constitute as an emergency but the pace they were going made it seem like a routine checkup.

By our conversation, I was not reassured the next visit would be a better experience. I told her I would find a new vet for Danni. The place reeked of cat urine & there was a puddle of urine where a dog had relived himself on the corner of the desk. Four yrs. ago we became AVC customers & they had a 4 star rating.

My two dogs mixed it up with an opossum in the yard this morning. My older dog was cut and bleeding, so we brought him in immediately. The vet we saw was thorough and did a great job stitching his lip for me. She also told me that he would need a booster for his rabies and did administer that. Once I got home, it became evident that my younger dog also had scratches on her nose. (She is black and her cuts were not evident in the early morning melee; the cuts are superficial ).When I called back to see if she required a rabies booster, I was told that she did not. Whomever I spoke with on the phone informed me that as long as the younger dog had a current rabies vaccination, she would not need a booster. I contacted our regular vet, and our regular vet informed me that it's policy in the state of New Hampshire that if an animal has had Wildlife contact a month AFTER a rabies shot, they need a booster. My vet could not see my dog today, so I called some other clinics in the area and was also told that yes indeed the young dog should have a booster (she is 2 yeas into her 3 year oF curgent rabies vaccusation). Why would the AVC give the old dog a booster and not the young dog? When I asked the individual on the phone this question, I did not receive an answer. Why would they recommend a booster for one dog with a wound and not another dog with a wound? I find that quite puzzling! We are off shortly to get our booster at Tower Hill Veterinary Clinic - they had no problem making a new pet visit for us. I would like to add that a Google search did not turn up any policy for NH regarding rabies boosters after wildlife encounters, but 3 vets I spoke with on the phone all agreed that the advice I got from the AVC was suspect. I say better safe than sorry. Read Less

I had to take my kitty to AVC a little over a week ago because dark purple bruises appeared all over his body out of nowhere within 12 hours. First of all, the facility was spotless and very welcoming. When we arrived the woman at the front desk was very helpful, the check in process was fast and easy and they got us into a room quite quickly. The wait to see a vet was a bit long but, our cat was not in any pain and a more severe emergency came in so they had to prioritize (if my animal had been the severe one I would want them to do the same so I did not mind). In any case when Dr. Beth Smith came to have a look at him she quickly had some thoughts as to what it may be and explained that she would have to do a blood test. When trying to draw blood he bled excessively which indicated he was not clotting properly, as Dr. Smith had predicted and was why she had the foresight not to take blood from his jugular, thank goodness. He had to stay overnight and we were not exactly sure what they were going to have to do to get him stable but Dr. Smith went through all of the possibilities and really took her time and was thorough which I appreciated as I was a bit overwhelmed. I called at 5 in the morning to check on him and was quickly able to speak to Dr. Smith on the phone and she once again was very thorough with everything they did and what her thoughts were going forward. The medications she gave him immediately helped and he was getting back to normal within two days and his bruises were completely gone within four days. I have now been back to get his blood checked twice and he is now at almost completely normal levels. Dr. Smith has also been extremely helpful with a plan going forward as he will likely need medication for the long term. In any case they took care of my baby and were extremely helpful and compassionate the whole time. As far as price goes they do not seem outrageously priced to me, after all they are an emergency vet and I felt that the prices were fair for the service I received. It did take a bit long for them to get the quotes together but, as I understand it they recently implemented a new system and overall it was an easy process. I will continue to bring him back there for check ups as I trust them and I found Dr. Smith to be very knowledgeable and the staff was great. Read Less

After doing an ultrasound and exploratory surgery this vet failed to find a peach pit that was stuck in the dog's lower intestine. My mother (the owner) was given 3 different diagnoses, none of which were even remotely correct. My mom decided to take the dog elsewhere for care. Upon discharge my mother asked the vet if the dog had been able to eat and go to the bathroom. Her reply was "I think so, but I'm not sure". Are you kidding me? This vet is either a complete idiot, or is purposely trying to kill animals. My guess is that she is BOTH! Read Less

I agree with Jennifer. Took our cat in all they did was give him a pain med and push a feeding tube even though I told them that my other cat had the same thing last month and needed antiboditics and anti inflammatory. I ended up taking my cat to our regular vet a few days later when he didn't improve. My vet gave him the same treatment as before and he rebounded in hours.

I brought my baby Squeakz to AVC @ 1am on April 12 2018. He was showing strange and not normal behavior for a kitten or himself. They reffered me to CareCredit because i didnt have the money for his ER visit. Which carecredit is a 27% intrest rate after 6months. I was very happy with the Vet and Vet Tech (Cheryl Faso & Kala S) They treated squeakz like their own lil baby and tried to figure out everything they could for me and for my lil man. I was a little perplexed/upset when the vet came out explaining that all of his screening were clear and they couldnt find exactly what was wrong with him expt that he doesnt seem to be able to comprehend what he is seeing. The vet informed me alot about problems kittens could have/get. Thankfully i took vettech @ my agricultural school because if i didnt i wouldnt know what the heck she was saying/explaining. I believe the price i was quoted was very high since i was sent home without knowing what exactly was wrong with him. I took their advice tho and am now giving him a new balanced kitten diet and his meds and also keeping him properly hydrated. Hes still showing very strange sighns and isnt seeming to get better but its only been a day. Overall i was happy with how profecinal and caring the ER staff was. I most likly wont be bringing my animal back here tho. Again i left not knowing what was wrong with my baby and for them just to stick him with needles and give him fluids it cost $452.53. The other thing i was a little mad about was that the vet told me if within 24hrs he turns for the worse i can bring him back free of charge. I called this morning April 13 2018 and the women said ONLY the check up is Free and they would quote me if he needs any work done. I feel like they just screwed me out of money but atleast i know now hes not going to die and hes on meds that will help him. I was also very unsettled by the comments the owner of the practice has been making on the comments, be careful what you comment because the owner will put all yoyr info and what happen to the animal out there. Which is actually illegal. Read Less

This douchebag will never accept accountability even after her license is pulled. I hope the attorney general’s office gets involved and that criminal charges are forth coming. I further hope that a civil judgement is issued against her she is forced to repay all of the victims the money they wasted on her sham services. I know that Kelloway gave an excuse that she “forgot” to renew or was unaware that her license expired. This is a lie because it has been brought the her attention by myself and several of the other customers that are suing her months before the board got involved. Completely UNETHICAL and repulsive business practices. I was told that the reason she was cheaper is because the surgeons don't have the same credentials as most vets. I didn't see this as a major problem at the time, but it was. Almost $7K later, I find out the surgery was not successful and they wanted me to pay another $3K to correct the surgery they botched. They became very verbally abusive when I refused to immediately cough up the cash and called the police when I walked out with my dog. Let there be no confusion - Kelloway botched the surgery. She used a steel plate which was not a durable material, or the plate was faulty all together - the finding of and independent vet that worked for the Lowell police. I then had to take my dog to a qualified vet (board certified) and pay to have the surgery done correctly - using a titanium plate as he said should have been done in the first place. (recommended by the Animal Rescue League at a much cheaper price). I never at any point told her I couldn’t afford services. She was simply advised that she shouldn’t be paid twice for the same service to be performed, legally that’s undue enrichment. If they mess up your coffee order at Dunkin Donuts in the morning, do you pay for 2 coffees? No, they correct their mistake, and you pay for the one coffee. In the situation with Kelloway, I paid for a coffee I never received, and then she refused to refund my money. She then sent me a letter in the mail threatening to have me charged with "Theft of Services" if I don't pay them an additional $246 within 14 days. When my credit card company called them immediately after and asked them to over the phone to redo the surgery for dog, they laughed in the customer service rep's face and told him they wouldn't do anything without full payment upfront. The owner asserts below there was an offer of pain medication made at the time of the incident, but as they were only concerned with obtaining payment. Fortunately I did have quite a bit of Tramadol left. This woman is a callous, money hungry sociopath willing to say anything to prevent a review from having a negative financial impact on her business. Granted the circumstances of what happened to my dog were unfortunate. I cooperated with the police to have the perpetrator charged with 2 felony counts of animal abuse and will be testifying against him at his trial. But there is absolutely no excuse for Kelloway to have used the circumstances of the case to try to cover up for her malpractice. When you look at all of negative reviews, believe them. My experience with this woman was a nightmare. And I was told by my lawyer her name has come across his desk more than a couple of times. I’m not sure if she is completely immoral, or mentally ill. Either way you’re better off not finding out and taking your business to a reputable vet. Also, please take note that as soon as she recieves a well deserved negative review such as this, she immediately asks her staff to create fake google profiles and write fake 5 Star reviews. I agree with all the negative reviews stating she could "care less." It's horrible that someone so unscrupulous should be allowed to remain in business. The unprofessional conduct of herself and employees are a disservice to the public and should be stopped. This loser is guilty of victimizing the victims. Read Less

All of my dogs have been accurately diagnosed and successfully treated by Dr. Kelloway. First kid: My girl was vomiting continuously. Brought her to my regular vet....they had her for about a day to re-hydrate her... took x-rays and found an "obstruction" in her intestines-hence the vomiting. They sent me to one of the emergency clinics in the area. When I got there I was immediately given a quote of $6,300-$6,500 for her emergency surgery-had not even examined my girl yet. They were not even going to take their own x-rays first....just gave me a bill and said that "the surgery needed to be done immediately." Something didn't feel right and I wanted a third opinion so I took her to Dr. Kelloway as I had before for another fur-kid, and we found that not only did my girl not need the surgery, Dr. Kelloway diagnosed her with stomach worms (common from dogs who have come up from the south.) She was given meds to clear them up and she was good to go. She's been healthy ever since. Second kid; Brought my boy to my vet due to what looked like broken blood capillaries in his gums. My vet was not sure what it was, so I bypassed the last ER clinic I had first gone to for my girl and brought him to Dr. Kelloway. After an ultrasound to confirm that his intestines were clear of any cancers or abnormalities, she properly diagnosed him with ITP-a blood disease due to a possible tick bite-got him on meds...he is a big healthy boy and doing well.Third kid: My middle child. He has a situation with his knee known as Luxating Patella... he was limping badly so I brought him in to see Dr. Kelloway...she was able do a couple of xrays and then gave me some options for treatment. He is now doing very well (we opted out of the surgery due to risks of eventually injuring the other knee and chose to exercise the knee each day (our physical therapy sessions at home.)Dr. Kelloway is the reason why my three kids are alive and well.

Its a quick place to get your required shots, the wait was longer than the actual visit with the "Doctor" my wife was a vet technician and she thoroughly performed assistance for dog physicals and with her previous employer Westmore and Slappy in Georgia they would even include trimming your dogs nails at no additional cost. Its more like a conveyor belt environment than a warm place. Read Less

We are extremely satisfied with your services from beginning to end. Since the first call I made to find information about the surgery my beloved mini dachshund Lowjack need it, all the way to the day of the surgery and discharge. It was a very reassuring feeling to talk to people that really care about your pet as much as you do. The full staff professionalism, experienced and expertise was truly evident from the first 10 minutes I spent on the phone trying to get information about the procedure Lowjack needed. You were thorough about gathering all the information needed from Lowjack's vet to make an estimate and the services you provide are very affordable. I would recommend Advanced Veterinary Care of Manchester to anyone who is looking for the best care money can buy for your pet without breaking the bank. We will recommend AVC to our family and friends. Thank you guys for taking care of little Low. Read Less

Took our little baby Dachshund puppy here last night at midnight due to him coughing and having trouble breathing. The girl at the front desk was so sweet and helpful. The Vet tech that came in to do his vitals was amazing and super sweet with him giving him treats and talking to us about what was going on with him & more. The Dr. we saw last night for him made sure we had no questions regarding what was going on with him even went above and beyond to educate us on some things regarding him since this is our first puppy. Puppies are prone to "Kennel cough" and that is exactly what he has. They gave us an antibiotic for him and we are going to start taking him there for all his future check ups and visits. Every member of the staff we met last night went above and beyond. Very pleased and thankful for all there hard work!! Read Less

I cannot recommend Dr. Kelloway and team enough!  The first time I met her was in 2010 when we had a vet emergency.  After that, I transferred my cats and dogs from each of their vets and made AVC Manchester our vet of choice.  Where to begin?  They're accessible 24/7, are far more affordable than either vet I had been going to, and have all the tools on hand that most vets don't.  We've had our host of health issues and Dr. Kelloway has always been extremely thoughtful and willing to research and suggest alternative therapies.  She has been my miracle worker - most recently treating my cat for a severe ulceration in her eye, sparing me a visit to a $pecialist and not just suggesting the easy way out (removal), but giving a new course of treatment a try.  Once again, she worked her magic!   Going to AVC is like visiting family - my dogs have since passed, however, the care that they showed towards them and currently my cats is exceptional.  For Dr. Kelloway, you can tell it isn't just a job - she genuinely cares for each animal.  Lastly, I have always found that they will assist in triage over the phone to spare you a visit if they can determine it can wait - that to me says integrity, as they could just as easily say come in and charge for the visit.  A good number to keep on hand in case of emergency!

Absolute worst place , NEEDS to be shut down. Brought my cat in for a wound they claimed he had a small infection (maybe she wasn't 100%) they ended up giving him a pain reliever shot, and sent us home with antibiotics and told me he'd be fine within a few days and not to worry..so I went home gave him his antibiotics like they told me to ..we got home at 8pm Saturday my cat was DEAD by 7am Sunday.. Brought him back and they have no idea why he died(bullshit) so I looked over his paperwork they gave me.. They said he was purring, they said they took his temperature (THEY NEVER DID) but they claim it was 101.2 . And also had a bunch of other things written that they said they did but didn't do!! So I decided to look up the shot they gave him and it says it shouldn't be mixed with ANY other meds but they had me go home and give him antibiotics .. I am 100% sure they killed him (slowly) this cat was only 4 and never had any medical problems not even a cold ever in his life! All and all I spent $200+ and they could care less, didn't even offer to get my money back. HORRIBLE. After telling people my story I have heard at least 10 horror stories of this place where at least 4 pets ended up deceased .. Please do not go here .. Drive 5 more mins up the road ! Read Less

By our conversation, I was not reassured the next visit would be a better experience. I told her I would find a new vet for Danni. The place reeked of cat urine & there was a puddle of urine where a dog had relived himself on the corner of the desk. Four yrs. ago we became AVC customers & they had a 4 star rating.

My two dogs mixed it up with an opossum in the yard this morning. My older dog was cut and bleeding, so we brought him in immediately. The vet we saw was thorough and did a great job stitching his lip for me. She also told me that he would need a booster for his rabies and did administer that. Once I got home, it became evident that my younger dog also had scratches on her nose. (She is black and her cuts were not evident in the early morning melee; the cuts are superficial ).When I called back to see if she required a rabies booster, I was told that she did not. Whomever I spoke with on the phone informed me that as long as the younger dog had a current rabies vaccination, she would not need a booster. I contacted our regular vet, and our regular vet informed me that it's policy in the state of New Hampshire that if an animal has had Wildlife contact a month AFTER a rabies shot, they need a booster. My vet could not see my dog today, so I called some other clinics in the area and was also told that yes indeed the young dog should have a booster (she is 2 yeas into her 3 year oF curgent rabies vaccusation). Why would the AVC give the old dog a booster and not the young dog? When I asked the individual on the phone this question, I did not receive an answer. Why would they recommend a booster for one dog with a wound and not another dog with a wound? I find that quite puzzling! We are off shortly to get our booster at Tower Hill Veterinary Clinic - they had no problem making a new pet visit for us. I would like to add that a Google search did not turn up any policy for NH regarding rabies boosters after wildlife encounters, but 3 vets I spoke with on the phone all agreed that the advice I got from the AVC was suspect. I say better safe than sorry. Read Less

The front staff was pleasant and accommodating but after I was room with my cat it was another 45 minutes before I was acknowledged. It was then a $700 surgery and after they gave me a prescription that is no longer made. When I got my car back from surgery she was covered in fecal matter and I was told "yeah that happens". I was so bothered by the experience I called management who after a few uninspired attempts ceased to return my calls. Not good Read Less

I had to take my kitty to AVC a little over a week ago because dark purple bruises appeared all over his body out of nowhere within 12 hours. First of all, the facility was spotless and very welcoming. When we arrived the woman at the front desk was very helpful, the check in process was fast and easy and they got us into a room quite quickly. The wait to see a vet was a bit long but, our cat was not in any pain and a more severe emergency came in so they had to prioritize (if my animal had been the severe one I would want them to do the same so I did not mind). In any case when Dr. Beth Smith came to have a look at him she quickly had some thoughts as to what it may be and explained that she would have to do a blood test. When trying to draw blood he bled excessively which indicated he was not clotting properly, as Dr. Smith had predicted and was why she had the foresight not to take blood from his jugular, thank goodness. He had to stay overnight and we were not exactly sure what they were going to have to do to get him stable but Dr. Smith went through all of the possibilities and really took her time and was thorough which I appreciated as I was a bit overwhelmed. I called at 5 in the morning to check on him and was quickly able to speak to Dr. Smith on the phone and she once again was very thorough with everything they did and what her thoughts were going forward. The medications she gave him immediately helped and he was getting back to normal within two days and his bruises were completely gone within four days. I have now been back to get his blood checked twice and he is now at almost completely normal levels. Dr. Smith has also been extremely helpful with a plan going forward as he will likely need medication for the long term. In any case they took care of my baby and were extremely helpful and compassionate the whole time. As far as price goes they do not seem outrageously priced to me, after all they are an emergency vet and I felt that the prices were fair for the service I received. It did take a bit long for them to get the quotes together but, as I understand it they recently implemented a new system and overall it was an easy process. I will continue to bring him back there for check ups as I trust them and I found Dr. Smith to be very knowledgeable and the staff was great. Read Less

I brought my elderly dog in last year and they treated her to make her comfortable. When the end was near, I brought her to AVC for that as well. We were treated wonderfully. Kind, caring experience. We went back and adopted a dog from All Better Pets and have been using AVC as our vet ever since. Excellent service from caring individuals. Read Less

After doing an ultrasound and exploratory surgery this vet failed to find a peach pit that was stuck in the dog's lower intestine. My mother (the owner) was given 3 different diagnoses, none of which were even remotely correct. My mom decided to take the dog elsewhere for care. Upon discharge my mother asked the vet if the dog had been able to eat and go to the bathroom. Her reply was "I think so, but I'm not sure". Are you kidding me? This vet is either a complete idiot, or is purposely trying to kill animals. My guess is that she is BOTH! Read Less

I agree with Jennifer. Took our cat in all they did was give him a pain med and push a feeding tube even though I told them that my other cat had the same thing last month and needed antiboditics and anti inflammatory. I ended up taking my cat to our regular vet a few days later when he didn't improve. My vet gave him the same treatment as before and he rebounded in hours. I emailed the avc to advise only to be told we were not welcome back to the clinic because I disagreed with their assessment. Read Less

Pet owners in Southern NH need to be aware of their options for emergency veterinary care. We will never bring our pets back to this facility. Our cat received poor care when there for an emergency. Shadow is a diabetic and they didn't monitor blood sugars for 24hrs because he was "too grumpy" He didn't recieve the xrays he needed because the veterinarian "forgot" when he was under anesthesia. Overall a very bad experience. Read Less
