I take my cat to this vet and have always been happy with service. Some other vets cost a lot and sometimes questionable ethics, but this place has always been honest and never pushy and reasonable price for service. I will continue to bring any pets I have to Brattleboro Vet

They were willing to help me with my dog that had been stung by bees, even though he wasn't their patient. We're switching to them for their excellent and compassionate care.
