We are so thankful that Dr C and the staff at FAH took excellent care of our rottie girl throughout her whole life. Winnie lived life to the fullest which meant frequent visits to FAH — 2 knee surgeries/recoveries, several incidents requiring stitches, suspicious lump removal, and more. Every doctor we encountered was caring and always took time to explain the diagnosis and our options, including any anticipated costs. When we got terrible news after an emergency vet visit and had to make the impossible decision to help Winnie across the rainbow bridge, Dr C and staff were extremely compassionate and truly went above and beyond.

I began bringing my dog to Framingham Animal Hospital in 2020, when it was difficult to secure appointments with a veterinarian. At that time, I found the staff and care team to be friendly, helpful, and reasonably priced. Since the practice has been sold, however, my experience has been very different. The reception staff have been consistently rude, short, and at times speak to clients in a dismissive manner. If you call with a question close to closing time, you are repeatedly reminded that they “close soon,” which feels unprofessional and unwelcoming. Most concerning was a recent experience when my dog received a second vaccine dose this past Friday and appeared to have an adverse reaction. When we called with concerns, we were made to feel like we were being unreasonable for seeking guidance about a vaccine administered by their office. The vet we spoke with was also very dismissive. Based on these experiences, we will be seeking care with a new veterinary provider and encourage others to look elsewhere.

I have a kitten who got an eye infection and Dr. Liu and staff were very helpful during my first visit. Will be coming back for future visits.
