“I cannot recommend this vet enough.They have been incredible with my fear reactive dog. We go to Dr. O’Neil, who is not only has incredible patience with my dog but also with me (I fullllllly admit, I’m the harder one. I have terrible focus when stressed, went through premed, and work in Pharma so ask a LOT of questions).Low stress handling is a different process than a standard vet so it takes a bit of relearning but they are incredibly accommodating and will guide you through. If you know what works and doesn’t tell them. If you know something doesn’t work but don’t know how to fix it, they’ll help.Ex: My dog went in today and was absolutely refusing to go under, we talked through what worked the last time she went under while Dr. O’Neil showed pup it was nothing to be scared of. Both of us calmed down, pup started getting woozy, to get her the rest of the way they brought in a bed, a blanket, turned off the lights, and I played calming music on my phone. Pup does terribly coming out of anesthesia, so they reduced the reversal shot, they let me be the first thing she smells, sees, and feels, and as soon as she is walking we’re outta there. Picture attached of her drifting off, snug as a bug.“
“I have had starwood veterinary,Dr. Baran come to my home to help with my dog aggressive 75 pound pitbull named Nitro for several years, I am so glad and thankful I found this vet, he is kind, attentive, understanding, and he is also not afraid to work with a pitbull that can get snappy during yearly immunizations, During the pandemic Nitro was sick, and the Dr, was out on medical, but he called me, and he helped troubleshoot via phone call about my dogs belly, etc, next steps........ The Doc was correct, my dog ate a bone and had a piece of bone stuck in his belly, This past tuesday I had to put down my beloved Nitro, Dr, B came to the house, and helped get Nitro peacefully to rainbow heaven. Nitro called Dr Banan, "the wormy doctor", because Dr B, prescribed the yearly heart worm pills. 5-star the best vet I have ever worked with. I am 54, and have never been without a dog more than 4 days, lol I had Nitro for 15 years, and the pup before him, Shena also lived 15 years. So in 30 years, 2 dogs, and I look forward to continuing to work with Dr. B, in the near future, when I adopt another pup. this time will need to be a smaller pup, I am getting older now, and need to consider logistics of the bigger pups, so next I need a pup under 50 pounds. But 5 star plus plus for Starwood Veterinary out of Groton, MA, Nitro loved his "Doctor Wormy". UPDATE: I adopted a 40 pound terrier mix, and Dr. B came to the house to perform Peppas first round of immunizations, he is very patient, understanding, caring, and fantastic. I have recommended Starwood vet to many neighbors, and now a bunch of my neighbors and their pets have Dr. B,“
“This is the best veterinary practice in MA. Dr. Thomas is thorough, precise, kind, and down to earth. She has dealt with everything, from international travel documents - that were prepared and just needed my signature - to a thorough investigation of health issues. Micayla, the technician, demonstrates immense compassion towards animals and is clear and informative. The front desk are efficient (my cat's entire history was organised, paper clipped, and the file returned to me within a day!), respectful, and lovely. Fabulous team and the very best care!“
