Companion Animal Hospital of Milford

To be honest, I never left Animal Hospital thinking that I got a good deal. Owning, a Newfie is expensive and it stinks shelling out a lot of money on just a normal vet visit. I don’t think my wallet would have liked any vet.
Why the 4 stars? When I had to make the heartbreaking decision to put my big boy down, Companion Animal Hospital made a house call. They were very calm and gentle with Brody making sure he didn’t feel a thing. Brody was literally put to sleep; he was snoring up until the moment he died.
Five days ago, I adopted a puppy. Without hesitation, I made an appointment with Companion Animal Hospital.

I’ve been dealing with Dr. Preli and the staff at Companion since 2007. He is a very kind and caring vet who is wonderful with animals. The staff know me by name when I call or go there and they are friendly and helpful, in most circumstances. Also, Bridget, the groomer, is wonderful. She is so caring and sweet and my current dog and previous dog were very comfortable in her presence. She really has a way with the doggies.
The three stars are purely due to the fact that I have not walked out of there with a bill less than $ 150, even when the visit was supposed to be one (minor) service. I’ve questioned some charges before and feel that some have been unnecessary fees. I’ve learned two things: ASK a lot of questions and don’t be afraid to turn down services that may not be necessary. My dog had heartworm disease (prior to adopting him) which was recently treated successfully and I was advised that he needed a teeth cleaning (would go under anesthesia for that). Come to find out, his heart needs a few months to recover before going under. Glad I did my research before giving the vet the go-​ahead.
