  Very impressed with the level of care for both animals and pet parents. The staff and lobby are welcoming and their compassion during emotionally stressful times is top notch. While not expecting to visit a few days in a row with different pets, every visit was transparent in pricing and included no pressure options with best and worst case scenarios for pricing. I appreciated that they understand cost is a factor that keeps many from seeking emergency veterinary care vs waiting until their regular vet opens. They make it easier to choose to treat instead of wait for non life-threatening pet issues. I also appreciated their triage process. From waiting in the parking lot to grab a crashing animal, to checking non life-threatening pets' vitals to put them in order to be seen, I felt the wait times were reasonable and care was being fairly distributed by need. Would definitely recommend!

  Newtown Veterinary Specialists handled our emergency with care and compassion from start to finish. All the staff were professional and caring, and did a thorough job evaluating our dog's illness and keeping us updated throughout the process. The initial wait time was fairly long after triage, but that was to be expected in an emergency room situation, and I would feel comfortable bringing our pets back here in an emergency. When we ultimately needed to make the decision to help our pup cross the rainbow bridge, the staff were so caring and we felt very supported in our decision. I'd like to especially thank Bailey and Dr. Porter, who helped us through the process and gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye to our boy.

  This establishment killed my cat, Lily. I brought her in with Congestive Heart Failure and wanted to put her to rest with love, comfort, dignity. Instead she was brought to the back for an iv, and during the brutal struggle to get the IV in (again CHF) with the employees she died of a heart attack. The facility has only made excuses for the treatment of Lily. Saying they ONLY use IV to put an animal to rest. I call BS. I've had several cats humanly put to rest without an iv. DO NOT BRING YOUR PETS HERE!!

  I cannot thank Dr.Little and Dr. Headrick enough for the great experience we had with them in regards to our puppy. on june 19th she was attacked by another larger dog at a board and train. the trainer then immediately took her to NVS where she was treated by Dr.Little who placed a wire in her bottom jaw. We traveled 45 minutes from New York to get the wire taken out today by Dr.Headrick and he was surprised on how well Dr.Little had placed the wire! He was very personable and gave us the confidence that everything was successful in the minor surgery he did. If you need to travel NVS is the place to go (if you can) we will definitely keep them in mind if we need them in the future!

  Ten years ago I brought my brand new puppy to this clinic with a severe respiratory infection from the animal shelter that he was in. They cared for him then with compassion and professionalism. Five years later, after an horrific accident when a tree fell onto our sweet dog, the surgeon there repaired his abdominal wall and spinal fractures with remarkable skill and Herculean effort. Finally, yesterday I brought my best friend to this clinic because he was suddenly extremely ill. And with unbelievable kindness the vet and staff there tended to us and ushered my sweet dog over that rainbow bridge. I trust this clinic and owe a debt of immense gratitude to their wonderful staff. Angels every one.
