The vets are good. However, with anything serious, they tend to refer out to Ocean State. They also have a huge focus on dental for animals...which is important, but felt like a pushy side gig. The place is immaculate and they do a nice job of using technology. All records and reminders are digital. This was helpful. They are also also priced competitively with other local vets. Great for routine and local, but may not be suitable for more serious needs (based on experience, which may not be fair to generalize). Worth a try..but be sure to have some alternates in mind.

The Village Veterinary Center is wonderful because the people who work there are wonderful. They do an incredibly good job--always very professional, reliable, friendly, and excellent when it comes to communication. I have had nothing but positive experiences taking my two dog there. Highly recommended!

The Staff “ Sarah” who answers the phone is obnoxious! Rude, Ignorant, My dog had an emergency on Wednesday and I drove him to the village vet. Door was locked and two girls came outside to block me from bringing my dog inside. He was having asthmatic breathing problems, shaking and in a panic mode, gasping for air. They brushed me off and told me… to try to find another clinic they weren’t equipped to help my dog. Not Staffed was the response!! I left in a hurry and drove to NK Emergency Vet Clinic. They took my dog immediately upon my arrival and took his vitals and monitored

As always, I'm thankful for the great care that my senior dog, Abigail received at VVC. And during this strange time when pretty much everything, including vet care has to be done a little differently, I really appreciated staff explaining exactly what to expect when we arrived for the appointment so I was totally prepared. Thank you VVC.🐾💖

We have a new puppy and I could go on and on about how great this place is. The staff is very nice, helpful and personable. The vet will call you after hours to give you updates or answer any questions you may have. They are the very best at what they do.
