Reviews for VCA Wakefield Animal Hospital

Ratings_icons VCA Wakefield Animal Hospital is TOP DOG

Marie K.

I bring my golden Molly to Dr. Simonelli. Dr. Simonelli definitely chose the right career. Being a vet requires alot of training, but you can not teach a love for animals and Dr Simonelli and the entire staff do a fantastic job. Molly has seen other Dr's here and they are all wonderful. The entire staff is great and the wait time is minutes. As soon as we walk in the door, everyone there knows us and always greets Molly. The follow up is so genuine and heartfelt. Molly was recently ill and Dr. Simonelli called immediately the next morning to check on Molly and the staff also called to check on Molly. No matter the reason for our visit, we both always leave feeling better. KUDOS TO YOU ALL!

Ratings_icons Not honoring a spay/neuter certificate in the manner that they are supposed

J C.

I had an experience where I called Wakefield Animal Hosp. about a spay certificate I had received from the Northeast Animal Shelter for a cat. (At the time I got the cat, I was told that I would only be responsible for the $35 exam fee.) I called the Wakefield Animal Hospital today and they claimed I'd have to pay 1/2 of the cost of the spay - (half of $360). Called the Northeast Animal Shelter back and they gave me other vets who participate. Stone-ham Animal Hospital on Central only charges $35. Why the huge discrepancy if Wakefield Animal Hospital is allegedly participating in the same program? Northeast Animal Shelter was not aware of this difference or any reason for it. Sorry but I've found the Wakefield A.H. to be very, very expensive in the past, as well.

Ratings_icons The best care consistently; friendliest environment always!

Lisa S.

I found VCA Wakefield when I first moved to the area a few years ago. I have been taking my pets there ever since. I had a wonderful chihuahua that had several health problems, and Dr. Kruse and the entire staff took the absolute best care of her; and spoiled her beyond rotten! They were so thoughtful and caring when Lola passed away and sent cards of sympathy. I cannot tell you how much that meant to me. I now take my two chihuahuas there and have received the absolute best care for them. I cannot thank them enough for everything they have done for me.

My Aunt takes both of her cats to this establishment and I have gone with her on appointments. The entire staff of veternarians really care about their four legged patients!
