Gansett Animal Hospital
Rumford, Rhode Island
General Info
Gansett Animal Hospital in Rumford treats veterinary care as a trust-building practice designed to serve both animals and their human caregivers throughout Rhode Island. Before permitting an examination, cats often require indirect eye contact. Canine companions often need extended periods to move between training stages and may benefit from being allowed to investigate the tools through scent exploration. The clinic’s approach is species-specific and emotionally responsive—avoiding overstimulation and adjusting for tolerance thresholds. This process regards owners as complete collaborative partners. Veterinary professionals utilize data about pets' post-storm behaviors, sleeping patterns near household members, and reactions to new textures as clinical input. Gansett Animal Hospital delivers medical support services including preventive planning diagnostics internal medicine nutrition advisement dental care and multi-species senior pet wellness. The scheduling of every procedure undergoes meticulous alignment with each animal's capacity to maintain calmness and presence. A number of pets experience diagnostic processes that are divided across multiple visits while others receive anxiety-reducing preparation plans. Exotic pets receive customized handling strategies to prevent stress-related complications. Post-appointment sessions deliver families signal-based care instructions to detect pain expression and assess sound or activity overstimulation before resuming normal interactions. Each treatment plan embodies its own rhythm which dictates moments to pause moments to engage and moments to reassess. Gansett Animal Hospital delivers veterinary services to Rumford pets and their families as well as those in nearby Rhode Island areas by using an emotional compass to understand each patient's unique stress signals physical language and timing needs.

My kitten was treated for worms 3 month ago (along with all the other general vaccines) Got him fixed a couple weeks ago and noticed worms in his stool last week :( called the office to talk to them about this and they blamed me saying I didnt get a second dose? I was never told about this. My cat has never been outside. Then they said he got it from his mother. Yet... I've had him since July and he's never had worms. I believe he got them while he spent the day at the vet getting neutered. But they'll never own up to that. They kept telling me to bring him in to get treated.. they're all about the money and not about the customer service. They should be treating him for free considering the circumstances. Shame.

I've brought my dog here for years for physicals and vaccinations. I boarded my dog (who has anxiety issues that they are well aware of) last year.

I boarded my 3 dogs with the Gansett Animal Hospital for 3 and 1/2 days because they are the sister facility of the vet office I've been taking my dogs to for over 8 years. I will never board my animals with Gansett again. The care we got was less than desirable. To say that I am upset is an understatement!Two of my three dogs came home with severe diarrhea. If that's not upsetting enough, when we picked the dogs up from the facility Sunday morning - one of them was caked in his own diarrhea. He had clearly been sitting in his own feces all night. It was on his neck, his back, and his hind legs...which then got all over the upholstery of my car because the vet tech was unable to clean him off.The vet tech was the only person there. She seemed overwhelmed and unequipped to deal with all the dogs alone. My dogs clearly had not been taken out to relieve themselves as they all immediately had accidents on the office floor the minute they were brought out of the kennels.I paid an extra fee for them to administer ear and eye drops to my female dog. I found out the same morning that the vet tech was administering the drops to the wrong dog. She had been giving it to my boy dog who was covered in his own feces instead of the dog I specially had them make a note of. She said she was unable to give him his drops today because she was dealing with his poop situation. Ok...but it's the wrong dog!I left three healthy dogs in their care and now I have two dogs who are suffering from severe diarrhea. We even brought them their own food to avoid any stomach upset issues because they have food allergies. I honestly have no idea how two of them ended up getting sick while in their care. For 540 dollars, at a vet facility - no animal should come out of boarding ill and covered in their own poop.

I glad I checked them out for myself.... there were a lot of reviews about high prices but I'm new to the area and I needed my puppy checked asap! The staff was wonderful not only with my anxious screaming puppy, but answered all of my (I'm sure) stupid questions and never made me feel like I was overreacting or prolonging the appointment. And I found the prices to be very fair and reasonable! I will be transferring both my fur babies to this vet full time moving forward!

Been bringing my animals here for years. Super friendly staff. Take me in for acute visits. Vets and techs are fabulous. But the prices feel high. I had to pay over $200 for some fluids and to straight cath her to try to get some urine and meds. Shot and oral meds. For a UTI! Of course I paid for it and that's not the first time I was like oh wow that's a lot of money for that. So if you're prepared to spend some money then you'll get awesome care. If you need a more reasonable price you may want to shop around!

I took both of my dogs there at the last minute for their shots. Not only did I not have to wait, they were swift with the procedure and even took the time to examine a tumor that had just shown up on my pug's neck. Not only did Dr. Schneider reassure me that she didn't think it was anything bad, she explained what she thought it was, and how to treat it st home. Not many vets will treat you with enough respect to not overcharge you for something you don't really need. I got top notch service and will be coming back!

For the first time I left the vet feeling that the vet was competent! They gave me great advice, didn't treat me like I've never owned a dog before and were able to give me a treatment that worked. If you want to feel confident that your money is well spent this is the place you should go! Sure if you live on the east side this might be a little "far" but hey, if you have the time to spare this is the place to go! The only thing that I would ask is that they need to be a little more efficient up front at the desk. I think I spent half my time waiting for someone to check me in and check me out and even when there was someone there they just slowly went along....They have a lot of parking both in front and in back. They have a dog and cat side so make sure you pick the right door!

This place use to be the BEST place ever to take your pets. My dog was taken there when she was a puppy 13 years ago, the original doctors were the best!! The new owners are money hungry snakes!! They charge you crazy prices with poor bed side manner!!! I had to put my dog to sleep and she couldn't go to her normal vet for this process because the prices were so high. The ONLY person within this organization that was at all sympathetic was Bill who answered the phone. I will NEVER EVER EVER recommend this place to anyone.
Unprofessional, highway robbery for prices and uncompassionate with the pet owners!!!!!!

Do not bring your animal here!! The vet is crazy. My sister was in the room while her cat received 5 shots and had her temp taken. As you can imagine, the cat was a bit unhappy. The vet continued to examine her, and when it came time to pay, my sister was suddenly told that her cat had bitten the vet and broken skin. My sister was in the room the whole time and not once did the vet even act like nor mention that the cat had bitten her. She was told that the vet was contacting animal control and that they would have to take the cat for 10 days. This was completely ridiculous and seemed extremely suspicious since during the entire exam, the supposed ""bite"" was never mentioned to my sister, nor did my sister see the cat bite the vet. They had no problem continuing the exam and taking the payment, but suddenly, after payment was received, there was an issue... This place is crazy - do not bring your pet there!!!

General Info
Gansett Animal Hospital in Rumford treats veterinary care as a trust-building practice designed to serve both animals and their human caregivers throughout Rhode Island. Before permitting an examination, cats often require indirect eye contact. Canine companions often need extended periods to move between training stages and may benefit from being allowed to investigate the tools through scent exploration. The clinic’s approach is species-specific and emotionally responsive—avoiding overstimulation and adjusting for tolerance thresholds. This process regards owners as complete collaborative partners. Veterinary professionals utilize data about pets' post-storm behaviors, sleeping patterns near household members, and reactions to new textures as clinical input. Gansett Animal Hospital delivers medical support services including preventive planning diagnostics internal medicine nutrition advisement dental care and multi-species senior pet wellness. The scheduling of every procedure undergoes meticulous alignment with each animal's capacity to maintain calmness and presence. A number of pets experience diagnostic processes that are divided across multiple visits while others receive anxiety-reducing preparation plans. Exotic pets receive customized handling strategies to prevent stress-related complications. Post-appointment sessions deliver families signal-based care instructions to detect pain expression and assess sound or activity overstimulation before resuming normal interactions. Each treatment plan embodies its own rhythm which dictates moments to pause moments to engage and moments to reassess. Gansett Animal Hospital delivers veterinary services to Rumford pets and their families as well as those in nearby Rhode Island areas by using an emotional compass to understand each patient's unique stress signals physical language and timing needs.

The staff was very compassionate when we had to put our 19 year old minpin down. And a few days later we even received a condolence card.

Brought our older dog in for an exam with short notice because he just wasn't acting himself. Tyler was so caring, thorough and extremely helpful! He made us and our pup feel comfortable and answered any of the questions that we had. It's reassuring to know that the staff members actually care about the pets!

I glad I checked them out for myself.... there were a lot of reviews about high prices but I'm new to the area and I needed my puppy checked asap! The staff was wonderful not only with my anxious screaming puppy, but answered all of my (I'm sure) stupid questions and never made me feel like I was overreacting or prolonging the appointment. And I found the prices to be very fair and reasonable! I will be transferring both my fur babies to this vet full time moving forward!

Been bringing my animals here for years. Super friendly staff. Take me in for acute visits. Vets and techs are fabulous. But the prices feel high. I had to pay over $200 for some fluids and to straight cath her to try to get some urine and meds. Shot and oral meds. For a UTI! Of course I paid for it and that's not the first time I was like oh wow that's a lot of money for that. So if you're prepared to spend some money then you'll get awesome care. If you need a more reasonable price you may want to shop around!

A year ago today, I had to put my dog Jasmine to sleep. Gansett Animal hospital, was so compassionate and kind to me that day. They allowed me time to be with Jasmine after we passed over the Rainbow Bridge. They gave me some of her hair. And a couple of days later, they sent me a beautiful card with Jasmine's paw print.

They were so nice to us. I have no words. They treated my Lucas with so much love. They were very through with what they were doing and how they explained it to me. They assured me Lucas was going to be very well taken care of, and for sure they did take such good care.

I took both of my dogs there at the last minute for their shots. Not only did I not have to wait, they were swift with the procedure and even took the time to examine a tumor that had just shown up on my pug's neck. Not only did Dr. Schneider reassure me that she didn't think it was anything bad, she explained what she thought it was, and how to treat it st home. Not many vets will treat you with enough respect to not overcharge you for something you don't really need. I got top notch service and will be coming back!

For the first time I left the vet feeling that the vet was competent! They gave me great advice, didn't treat me like I've never owned a dog before and were able to give me a treatment that worked. If you want to feel confident that your money is well spent this is the place you should go! Sure if you live on the east side this might be a little "far" but hey, if you have the time to spare this is the place to go! The only thing that I would ask is that they need to be a little more efficient up front at the desk. I think I spent half my time waiting for someone to check me in and check me out and even when there was someone there they just slowly went along....They have a lot of parking both in front and in back. They have a dog and cat side so make sure you pick the right door!

This place use to be the BEST place ever to take your pets. My dog was taken there when she was a puppy 13 years ago, the original doctors were the best!! The new owners are money hungry snakes!! They charge you crazy prices with poor bed side manner!!! I had to put my dog to sleep and she couldn't go to her normal vet for this process because the prices were so high. The ONLY person within this organization that was at all sympathetic was Bill who answered the phone. I will NEVER EVER EVER recommend this place to anyone.
Unprofessional, highway robbery for prices and uncompassionate with the pet owners!!!!!!
Please DO NOT go here you will regret it!!

Do not bring your animal here!! The vet is crazy. My sister was in the room while her cat received 5 shots and had her temp taken. As you can imagine, the cat was a bit unhappy. The vet continued to examine her, and when it came time to pay, my sister was suddenly told that her cat had bitten the vet and broken skin. My sister was in the room the whole time and not once did the vet even act like nor mention that the cat had bitten her. She was told that the vet was contacting animal control and that they would have to take the cat for 10 days. This was completely ridiculous and seemed extremely suspicious since during the entire exam, the supposed ""bite"" was never mentioned to my sister, nor did my sister see the cat bite the vet. They had no problem continuing the exam and taking the payment, but suddenly, after payment was received, there was an issue... This place is crazy - do not bring your pet there!!!
