The staff is friendly, kind, and professional and the doctors are top notch! I almost don't want to share all this great stuff about them because I'd like to keep them all to myself!

“10/10 James at Milford animal hospital and staff always take amazing care of my cat MJ! She is consistently terrified to go to the vet but she comes home well groomed and happy as can be. The level of communication is appreciated and we super appreciate their updates as MJ goes through her vet appt that she has about every 6 months. She has to get sedated to be groomed and I love knowing she is in great hands when I drop her off. Highly recommend!“

“Words cannot express how truly grateful I am to the entire team at NECC. Dr. Richter and his staff helped us improve the quality of life for our 2 cats and never gave up on us. He was kind, patient and realistic when we were creating the plans and was so knowledgeable here. He goes above and beyond to help and was kind enough to call me after my cat recently passed. I am so thankful for this team and my decision to make them my vet was a great one! Thank you!“

“Excellent, have been going for over 28 yrs , everyone is fantastic and care is the best. I highly recommend taking your beloved friend here.“

“Our whole family just loves the Pond Point Animal Hospital team. We know they care about our spaniel, Juniper, and their attention to her health is wonderful!“

“Been with this clinic since Dr Cohen and we love Dr Mags and the office set up. He takes time with the animals which matters greatly to me. They’ve done a lot of work on the clinic and monitor the ‘traffic flow’ which is appreciated. We trust Dr Mags with my service dog’s health issues and my dog trusts him…and Alby. ;) Always awesome to have Alby around during visits. I think Alby has helped make the vet a positive place for my dog! :) I look forward to bringing future service dogs in training here to get some reassurance and training from Alby and a good positive vet experience with Dr Mags.“

“Dr. Lisa and the team have been our doctor for 4 pets over 15 years. We trust them completely with our pets care and will continue to.“

“The veterinarian is great! She took great care of our car, Snowflake. They are very friendly, professional and reasonable in cost.“

“I called in for an emergency visit for my Cat Salem he wouldn’t stop puking and I was extremely worried. Dr Broderick’s staff said if I didn’t mind waiting I could be seen the same day at 10:30am. We arrived at the appointment and was immediately seen and out within a half an hour for a diagnosis. Dr. Broderick was extremely professional and made me feel better about Salem. If you need a new Veterinarian I highly recommend him!“

“The team here is so sweet, kind and patient with my dog every time we go. They really take their time to give her lots of love before the appointment starts and I feel that they just genuinely love the animals. They also are always available with any questions you have either during the appointment or just any time. They have great communication. I'm so glad that we chose them for my dog when we moved to the area.“

“Dr. Weill is the most thorough and caring vet in the region. Would recommend him to anyone.“

“I took my fur baby to this place not trusting to many of the vets out there . The young lady at the front desk with tattoos, I believe her name was Megan. She did such a great job answering my questions and calming not only me down but also my dog! He's not around other people much so he's anxious. Something about her reassured him I guess because he went right with her. She went above and beyond to make me feel better and comfortable. I knew I made the right choice 2 minutes into our interaction. Just wanted to say ty to her for going above and beyond her job description!“

“We have been bringing our pets here for years. Everyone is friendly, straightforward, and helpful. Highly recommend bringing your furry family members here.“

“We've been going to Ridgehill Animal Hospital since 1997, so we feel we truly know this place well, and we're happy with the care given. We especially love Stacy at the front desk, she's kind beyond kind, and we love Dr. Moruzzi, she is a treasure, she's unbelievably knowledgeable, skilled, patient and kind. We adore her, she's taken care of our pets for almost ten years now. We just got a new puppy and she has given us excellent care as always. She made her spay surgery with hernia repair an easy experience and recovery for our puppy. She also took care of our love, our Coco, who was the best girl, she was a rescue, she was up in age, and Dr. DiLeone cured her Mast cell tumor, and later Dr. Moruzzi kept her well for years with Cushing disease, she also repaired Coco's knee with a TPLO surgery that was a complete success!! Sadly, yesterday at 15+, we had to say goodbye to our Coco, she developed a heart murmur that caused a stroke, it was time, a decision that broke us to make, we had to rely on a vet we didn't know, over the holiday week, but we have to give a huge thank you to Dr. Everett!!! She is incredible, she told us what we needed to know to make the right decision, she stayed with us through the whole process, she gave us time to grieve, to say goodbye as a family, and she did it with great knowledge, compassion and love. We will always be grateful for her, she was like an angel of mercy who walked into the room and held our hands through it all, making sure that our baby was given a graceful and painless experience as she went to the other side. She was held by her whole family, and had love and respect around her the entire time. We should all be so lucky to have a final send off like that!! Thank you to these angels for keeping our girl healthy and happy through the years, and thank you for helping her in the end too, the team at Ridgehill were part of protecting a beautiful life and we are grateful.“

“I see some reviews where people complained about waiting for their visit. In 2022 Dr. Mendillo spent a lot of time with our less than 6 year old Boxer Mel when it was time to euthanize him. His mast cell tumor was ginormous and infected and my husband and I were having a difficult time saying good bye. Dr. Mendillo and Courtney were absolutely wonderful with our boy. I will never complain about waiting now that I know how they spend their time. We have two 11 month old Boxers and they are under Dr. Mendillo's care.“

“During the hardest time in our life after the rapid decline of our 9 year old best friend and bad experiences with previous vets, we turned to Dr.D and his staff, not knowing what to expect when we had to make the difficult decision to put our beautiful dog down. I cannot express my gratitude enough for the immense amount of compassion and care we were shown. From the initial greeting at the front desk, to the way Dr. D was right there with us petting our Gus and whispering sweet words in his ear as he drifted away, it was the best case scenario for such a tragic and emotional day. They were also the most reasonably priced out of all vets we called. A few days later, a handwritten card of heartfelt condolences came in the mail. Class acts all around- highly recommend.“

“There were a couple times when they had forgotten something and I had to visit twice in the same day.

Once was when they had forgotten to give my dog one of her vaccines and asked me to come back in the same day and the second time they had forgotten to give me her prescription food. I had to leave work to come back both times before they closed.

Thankfully they understood the inconvenience and quickly handled the situation by waiving some fees.

Kind vets and understanding receptionists!“

“My family and I have brought our dogs to Dr. Moore for over 18 years and the level of care and concern she has shown all our dogs over this time is a testament to her compassion and professionalism, but more importantly, her deep understanding that these pets are more than just animals to their owners, they are family. My dog recently underwent his first teeth cleaning and despite the fact that he is extremely anxious while in the office, Dr. Moore and her amazing staff handled him carefully and cautiously to avoid aggravating his mood, and I received regular texts to my cell throughout the day with status on his condition. The staff equal Dr. M's love of both their job and their furry patients and each and every one is kind and gentle with our dogs. While the office does tend to be busy, clearly a result of the number of pet owners that echo my sentiments, Dr. Moore and Dr. Celentano, or one of the staff, have always taken the time to get back to our family with emails or calls to assess and discuss our concerns and develop a plan that best suites our dog's needs. When our concerns we're identified as urgent, time has always been made to get our dogs into the office. Just today I received an email well after hours from Dr. Moore regarding treatment that my dog needs on his hip. She understood how worried I was that my dog was struggling and wanted to ensure I was given a number of options that would work best for him and that we had a plan laid out for treatment. River Valley offers a level of personal attention that we've simply not experienced at other vets with a staff that truly value the lives and well being of our dogs.“

“Dr. Nanavati no longer practices here and has retired! His old practice is now under a new management of Dr. Pooja, Dr. Adam and Dr. Manj who also owns Ansonia Westfield Vet Hospital.“

“Never a long wait time. Staff is amazing. Always good to find a vet that genuinely loves animals.“

“This veterinary center is fairly expensive - but it is New Haven after all. Decent service and helpful staff.“

“Wonderful vet clinic. Took one of my cats there for simple check up and shots. The staff are great people to be around and worked very well with Otto. Also was a reasonable price for both the check up and shots. Cat made it back alive, picture as proof“

“We have been using Dr Jeff for 30+ years, highly recommend him. He and is staff are caring and supportive with any questions and concerns we may have. Dr. does not up charge for unnecessary
testing and has kept my pets happy and healthy for many years .“
