I have a beautiful white bull terrier who has been seen by our other vet for the last year. When he was a puppy, he had giardia and coacidia. We spent thousands on both of our pups to get them healthy with those nasty parasites. About 2 months ago, we noticed a large red bump on Ruger chest. Of course, I freaked, rushed to our vet. She was in surgery so we had to see another vet. He was very pushy and said we couldn't do a biopsy and we had to do surgery to get this out ASAP as it appears to be cancer. This was going to be $1700 up front. I called around and found Westbrook for a second opinion

Everyone at Westbrook was beyond amazing from the minute I called to schedule Rizzos neuter appointment, to pick up after surgery Super helpful, the lady at the front desk was super sweet! They were so patient, I got stuck in traffic and never complained that I was 20 minutes late. Westbrooke staff are wonder. Thank you so much for taking care of my baby boy .

We were quite anxious to get Bo (roughly 9-yr old Maltese) in for dental surgery, knowing that most or all of his teeth were bad and had to come out. The staff at Westbrook was very comforting and assured us that he would be fine. They were probably not surprised at his surgery and recovery, but we were really pleased how he recovered over the following few days, behaving like nothing had been done to him. Eating and bad breath is no longer a problem and we know he will be much healthier for the next few years. Thanks so much to Dr Stuart and the wonderful staff at Westbrook for their outstanding

I have been bringing my pets here for over 7 years. Yesterday my 7 year old Beagle was going on Day 4 of no eating and vomiting and the runs. She was so sick. I called Westbrook and they were all booked up till Monday and I couldn't wait that long. They gave me some numbers to call other emergency services and no one would/could see us. I called Westbrook back almost in tears and somehow they were able to get Bailey in that day even though they were already over-booked. This morning My baby girl is already feeling better and has had breakfast! I don't know how to express to the staff at Westbrook

I literally just got back from an emergency visit to Westbrook and cannot say enough great things about the staff, Dr. and overall experience! I had tried to get a last minute appointment with several other animal hospitals due for my kitty Smoke who has a upper respiratory infection and thankful to the staff for squeezing me in today. The cost was extremely reasonable which during this pandemic is a life saver-perhaps literally for my fur baby. I will now be moving all four of my cats over to Westbrook as thier primary care provider, thank you!

I picked Westbrook because it was close to my home and I had just got another puppy a Jack Russell that I named Henry I wanted to get his shots current and get a good physical done for him and I was really blown away the staff just went crazy for Henry they even took a picture of him to put on there new additions wall. Now with Henry being a Jack Russell he is a very high energy dog so he basically never stops moving which makes doing a physical exam very difficult but the staff were very patient and handled Henry very well and I guarantee Henry will be coming here exclusively for the rest of his

When taking our two old lady rats to be euthanized after a long run of treatments in NC, Westbrook was curteous, thorough and friendly. I had brought their medical records to the appointment but I didn't end up needing to put up a case because they trusted my story. That made the experience a little less painful. I was given all the extra time I needed with them before I let them go.
While the cost of urns was a little too much for two pocket pets, I did appreciate the Paws of Remembrance, with their foot imprints and names in a box and a flap inside with the Rainbow Bridge poem.
