Veterinarians in Newport

“We have been bringing all of our dogs to Dr Selena Hunter and her incredible staff 14 years. I don’t any better, more empathetic, and sincerely concerned with our pets health. We’ve always been so very grateful for her!
My first visit was with one of our dogs who’d been through multiple surgeries and terrified of vets offices after. Dr Hunter sensed it immediately, left to bring her lunch in for later in her day and quietly sat on floor of exam room breaking her sandwich into small pieces holding them out behind her so our shaking dog could gradually warm up to become trusting and comfortable with her. Our scared Sasha grew to love visits and trust her.
Years later another of our severely abused rescues we took in was shattered emotionally, permanently physically damaged and endured starvation and a wormload so great she could’ve died from anemia. Dr Hunter always remembers Gracie over the years and has helped us give her more years than ever expected. She is now 12 yrs old, and also loves Dr Hunter. We all do! We have 4 dogs, all rescued Pitbull or Pitbull/mixes. Though I am in past few years living/working primarily in NH, we still prefer this practice and staff and is the only doctor we trust for surgeries. One of ours is coming in for surgery in 2 weeks and worth the 2 1/2 hour drive without question! If there’s any availability at this practice for new patients, get in there fast as there are few as skilled and caring as this group of ladies!“

“This vet office is clean, the staff are courteous, Dr. Nelson is wonderful: caring, calm, and kind. She listens carefully to your concerns, obviously adores animals, and is knowledgeable about what she does. The prices are reasonable and they can usually get my animals seen in a pinch if need be.“
