    We are so happy with this hospital! We were at Four Pows in Groton for 8 years with my Yorkie terrier has severe allergies and in all if those years couldn't not cute, every time was a different vet, and charge very very expensive. Here at VCA are compasive staff, if you choose a Dr. Is ok. Always explain all the charges and let use medicine that you have if necessary! Have special discounts with a subscription, etc… Waidy recommended!!!🤗👏

    After our last visit, I was very disappointed by this practice's aggressive sales tactics and poor service. When we left, I was unknowingly subscribed to an expensive medication plan. The main issues I experienced were: Automatic subscription: Without my consent, I was subscribed to a $380 medication. No-return policy: When the medication arrived, it included a notice that it could not be returned. Unprofessional staff: When I called to question the charge, the receptionist was extremely rude and dismissive. Her "shushing" and talking over me suggested this was a common complaint. High pressure sales: I also felt uncomfortable during my appointment due to the vet's aggressive attempts to sell me a more expensive medication. While I know vet care is expensive, this clinic seems more concerned with sales than pet welfare. For me, the extra 30-minute drive to a clinic in Colchester that prioritizes its patients is well worth it, so I am back to driving, but with the peace of mind that my pets will see loving caring doctors, not "commission salesmen" on a vet coat.
