Daniel Webster Animal Hospital

One afternoon my 3 year old cat died (out of nowhere) in my arms when I picked him up. My husband started doing CPR and we rushed over to this vet. I dropped my husband off at the door and went to park. When I came in, crying, he was STILL standing at the front desk with everyone just kind of standing around like a dope, no sense of urgency at all, while he is holding a (pretty positive) dead cat. They finally bring us to a room, the doctor (not sure who, don’t care) came in and looked at us in a «what do you want me to do» type of way. My husband was like «I’m pretty sure the cat is dead but I want confirmation that there is nothing else we can do.» The doctor listened to his heart and said «oh he’s gone. bummer.» In the exact same tone I would say to myself if I broke a nail. I was appalled. I don’t care if this is something that you see every day. I am a nurse and I treat every single patient as an individual and not group them into everyone else that I come in contact with. I also asked the Vet assistance to take my cat out of the room MORE THAN ONCE because it was so hard to see his precious face dead on the table. THEY NEVER TOOK HIM AWAY. My husband even asked again for me because I was starting to feel sick. They still never took my cat out of the room until we went to check out (PAY). I just got my cat’s ashes back and I immediately canceled my first puppy appointment and will be going back to the Manchester Animal Hospital. I thought I was being extra emotional in that moment so I let it process for a couple days. After I let it settle I discussed the visit with my husband and he COMPLETELY agreed with how I felt. He is the most passive person, never gets upset with anyone, and always tries to talk sense into me. For him to agree with me was absolute confirmation that this place sucks. Don’t ever go there in an emergency situation.

Daniel Webster Animal Hospital is the best. We are so happy with Dr. Tucker. He has done knee surgery on our little yorkie and both our dogs have had teeth extractions. One of our yorkies had an abscessed tooth which had broken through the jaw bone. Dr. Tucker was able to wire the jaw together and the dog is doing fantastic. They also give senior citizen discounts. Great place.

Beyond happy with the service we received at DWAH– we recently moved to New Hampshire from Chicago with two senior dogs (and 2 younger ones), one of which seemed to not be doing well, they were able to get us in the same day I called and Dr Heald was amazing. I have never seen my 14year old dog as calm as she was at DWAH. They made what was a stressful visit a little less stressful for me and my vet hating dog. Will definitely be making Dr Heald our new vet for all 4 of our dogs!

Dr. Jenkins and Dr. Rosa are the absolute best! I couldn’t ask for better care for my dogs. My older Siberian Husky has had some uncommon health issues, and Dr. Jenkins has been excellent at diagnosing and treating them. Dr. Rosa has performed surgery on her a couple of times with great outcomes. From initial visit to follow up, they explain everything every step of the way. I never have a problem making appointments. When I call with a problem, they always find time no matter how booked they are. They have such a passion for what they do and they are excellent at it. Thank you DWAH for having the best of the best!

For yrs we have been going to another Vet in Manchester NH. I finally came to my senses and left there when my dog kept being diagnoist incorrectly and they where charging me a fortune.
After reading reviews about Daniel Webster Animal Hospital, we decide to make the change. THANK YOU all who wrote reviews. My wife and I are so pleased we made the move. Dainel Webster diagnoist our dog correctly the 1^st time, and put him on the correct meds. Within 2days, our boy (12 yr old cockerpoo) was back to his usual playful and begging for food self.
Daniel Webster has our buisness and I highly recommend antone who loves they pets to do the same.

So far this has been a great experience, everyone was very nice and so good to my yorkie. First time ever Dr Rosa actually spent more then 5 minutes

I had a pretty traumatic experience at another vet, so I wanted to see someone who knows their stuff, and won’t try charging me for things that are not necessary. That landed me here, and seeing Dr. Tucker.
Walking in, my first impression was, «Did we just walk into a real hospital?» because the front desk looks like more of a nurses’ station than a vet’s office. I checked in, waited a few minutes and was put into a room where the vet tech met me almost immediately. I didn’t need to rehash much of what was going on, because most of it was in his charts already. My friend and I waited a few more minutes, and in came Dr. Tucker.
He was focused without being cold, and his ability to work with my cat Jeeves was nothing short of magic. Though still freaked out, obviously, Jeeves was a lot calmer by the end of the exam than he ever was at any other vet visit. He didn’t even pee in his crate! (OK. Maybe TMI. But it’s a thing.) He explained the how and whys of what he noticed, and addressed my concerns thoroughly. Every question I had was met with extensive experience and knowledge, and all my options were laid out for me. I left there with confidence that my little fur-​baby was getting taken care of by someone who cared, knew exactly what they were talking about, and not someone trying to make a buck off of guilt-​ridden, panicked pet owners.
The friend I was with me for the visit is switching his cat’s care over to Daniel Webster Animal Hospital, and convinced his roommate to do the same. He said to me, «…Even if I don’t get in to see Dr. Tucker, his extensive knowledge and competency as a veterinarian reflects upon Daniel Webster as a whole, and it is most certainly somewhere I want to take my cats to get seen.»

We have been clients for over 12 years, with our cats and dog. We have seen every vet over the years, and their dedication has been outstanding. Dr Tucker and Dr Rooney have performed surgery on our pets, and their follow through is outstanding.
Great vets.

While our puppy is new to this practice (6 months), our 4 visits to date have been very positive experiences. The place is super clean, super friendly and attentive to both us and our dog. The professionalism from the Vets to the receptionists is impeccable. I wish my own Physician’s office was as attentive and welcoming as DW Animal Hospital.

Love my new vet’s office. Caring and patient professionals. Dr. Lisano is A+++.

This is the most professional, clean and trustworthy vet I have ever been to. We have three dogs and I wouldn’t bring them anywhere else. We mainly deal with Dr. Jenkins and Dr. Rosa but wouldn’t hesitate with anyone at the hospital. They are very thorough with any procedure wether it be routine shots or surgery and very eager to answer questions before, during or after. You can tell they are all animal people from the front desk to the doctors. I would recommend this vet to anyone.

I had started bringing my cats here about a year ago. I had 2 cats, Simon and Sammy and I would make an appointment for one, and they would be expecting the other one… then I would have to tell them why I’m there and what not as if there was nothing ever written in the chart. I brought my cat, Molly, down for blood work before a surgery. I was asked why she was there and when I told them, they asked what the surgery was for… AGAIN as if nothing was written in the chart. I had expressed that I felt Molly had a heart condition and suggested that they run tests for it, Dr Peterson said there was no need to worry so no tests were run. When I dropped her off for her surgery, I voiced my concern, yet again, to Dr. Rooney and how I really felt they should test her for heart disease because I had a really bad feeling. I was told I was worrying for nothing (Molly panted a lot which is a sign of heart disease) and was told «sometimes cats JUST pant». Molly came out of the surgery but died suddenly about an hour later. We will never know why. but I am beyond convinced she had heart disease and the stress from the surgery caused her to die. I think the doctors at this facility need to research heart disease the way I did and then they’ll scratch their heads and mutter the words «I think she was right about Molly».
RIP Molly, you were loved more than you will ever know.

I recommend this practice to everyone. Dr Tucker is one of the best in the field, especially with surgery. I also recommend Drs Heald, Peterson and Rooney and Jenkins. I have been coming here for 22 years. There are a few newer drs that i do not care for that seem to lack experience beyond the basic annual shots/​checkups, so i simply have it noted on file so i am not put with them when i call for an appt. Exceptional care for your pet. Dr Tucker please dont ever retire!
They are more expensive though in comparison to other vets. Many people seem to think that way. Perhaps lower your prices a little?

After moving to NH, I was worried that I would not be able to find the same quality veterinary care as my former nationally acclaimed vet from Boston. This clinic, however, exceeds the quality of veterinary care my pets have ever received not only in Boston, but in VT and NY where my family has previously resided.
Dr. Peterson at this clinic is outstanding and recommended. She is caring, contemplative, and hard-​working. I had a 15 –year old lab with a plethora of unique medical disorders that she was able to treat after dedicating much thought and attention to each issue. My dog’s disorders ranged from autoimmune, to neurological, to endocrine, to dermatological, to allergenic, to gastrointestinal, and more. Dr. Peterson really thought about each problem in depth and considered my dog’s personality when prescribing treatment and referrals. Her late evening calls (which she made as it worked with my schedule) confirmed her thoughtfulness and work ethic. It is clear she works late and really delves into problems. And remarkably, Dr. Peterson would often spend 45 minutes on the phone thinking out and explaining things to me.
My dog lived a long and happy life, which would not have happened had we not met Dr. Peterson, and I would commute from Boston to NH just to have my aging cat seen by her now.

I was upset when I had to switch vets after moving, but I’m even more happy with DWAH then I was with my last vet. The staff is so kind and attentive and the doctor’s are wonderful. Both my dogs have seen Dr. Rosa and he’s so great with them. He’s thorough and when something is wrong he calls to follow up.
They make sure you stay up to date on things (which is great for forgetful people like me) and their prices are reasonable.
I highly recommend this animal hospital!

Dr. Jenkins and Dr. Rosa are awesome. You can tell that they really love animals and they call to follow up after appointments to see how things are going. They both have an excellent way of explaining medical and behavioral information in terms that are easy to understand.
When we were trying to figure out why our dog Martin was having digestive issues, Dr. Rosa spent a great deal of time with me on the phone and in the office, and I really appreciated his help.
Our other shepherd, who is a rescue and not usually a huge fan of going to the vet, has also adjusted really, really well. We don’t have to muzzle him when he gets a check-​up or vaccinations, and he doesn’t seem as stressed out as he has at other veterinary offices.
I’ve found that the front office has always been very helpful — faxing proof of vaccinations when necessary and squeezing us in for last-​minute appointments if something is wrong. Their hours of operation are convenient, so it’s possible to grab prescriptions on the way home from work or on a Saturday.
The hospital itself is also quite impressive. It feels like walking into a regular doctor’s office — everything is well decorated and clean and the interview rooms feel private. On Saturdays they do tours of their operating room facilities, which really helped to put my mind at ease that I had chosen the right place when I had my older dog put under anesthesia and was nervous. They called to invite me to the tour the week before the procedure was scheduled. One of the technicians took the time to explain a lot about the procedures that they do and how some of the equipment works.
My dogs are an important part of my life, and I’m thankful that I’ve found a trustworthy and talented group of people at Daniel Webster Animal Hospital to help keep them healthy.

Thank you to the DW Animal Hospital team for fitting me in last Saturday for a last minute emergency appointment for my dog. I felt better leaving there knowing that my dog was going to be ok. I am very picky as to where I will bring my animals for their care/​treatment. DW is a clean facility. I would recommend them to a fellow pet owner.

This place is the best. I have three dogs and love this place… I wish I still lived in NH… I would go there… i go there when I have time to drive the 60 miles to get there

Great place! Very caring vets. Nice newer facility.
