Services
General Wellness
Our comprehensive wellness exams detect early health issues through physical assessments and diagnostic testing. We create customized vaccination schedules and parasite prevention plans tailored to each pet's lifestyle. Regular check-ups help maintain optimal health and extend pets' lifespans through proactive care.
Dentistry
Annual dental cleanings remove plaque buildup while oral exams identify tooth decay or gum disease. We perform extractions when necessary and provide home care guidance to maintain dental health. Preventive dental care helps avoid systemic infections that can affect major organs.
Diagnostic Ultrasound
Ultrasound technology creates real-time images of internal organs and soft tissues without surgical intervention. This non-invasive tool helps diagnose heart conditions, tumors, and pregnancy with high accuracy. We use it for guided biopsies and fluid sample collection when needed.
Surgery
Our surgical services include soft tissue procedures for organ systems and orthopedic operations for bone/joint issues. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork ensures patient safety while advanced monitoring maintains vital signs during procedures. Post-operative care includes pain management and recovery support.
End of Life Care
We provide compassionate euthanasia options with private consultation rooms for family goodbyes. Cremation services offer memorial options including individual or communal arrangements. Our staff supports pet owners through the grieving process with understanding and respect.

This is the vet we go to with all of our cats. The staff are great! The waiting room can be loud when dogs are there but there is a section off to the right that is more secluded for nervous animals like mine

I've been going here for maybe a decade. Dr Wharrie is wonderful. His calmness and kindness seems to help with my stressed out animals. And he takes the time to really explain everything and answer all my questions. When there are options, he tells me pros and cons, and I trust him. All the techs are also great.

Dr. Heckerling took care of our dog Daisey since she was a puppy until she passed at 13 years. She had many medical issues and I could always rely on his care of her being the best. He also saw her through a few surgeries and her care was excellent. Now we have two new pups and live in New Hampshire and find our established trust with Middlesex County Animal Hospital is worth the extra travel.

Our animals are our babies and that's exactly how the vets treat them. They are so sweet and caring. After visiting they always check up on them to see how they are feeling. Very thorough and professional. Absolutely love them!

They love my dogs. And they always treat them as if they were as special to them as they are to me. And I'm in including everyone that works there.
