    Only good things to say about Dr. Barrett and the rest of the staff. Wouldn't think of going anywhere else- I recommend Kodiak to everyone!

    We bring two Labradors to this location. The staff and doctors are really good. We feel well cared…read morefor and would certainly recommend AMC. They are not inexpensive, however, price is what you pay, value is what you get. Regarding the facility, I realize they are renovating and potentially improving the place, the current facility needs a good cleaning.

    They did successfully fix up our cat in an emergency surgery situation when he was clogged up with…read moreurinary crystals and near death, but read on for the full story. After overnight stays and several thousand dollars later he was in survivable shape and emerged with a lifetime prescription for veterinary formula food (both wet and dry). The prescription for this food was explicitly written to indicate that he would need this prescription food for the rest of his life and it was written to cover 50+ refills of any size wet or dry. The script did not include any expiration date. This would likely be enough food to last the entire balance of his life. After a few years, though, this facility decided that they would no longer authorize prescription refills of the food when contacted by food retailers (Petsmart, Chewy, etc.). Even though the prescription explicitly said he would need to receive ONLY this food for the rest of his life, and even though we were nowhere near the number of refills provided for in the script provided to us post-surgery, this facility decided that we could no longer purchase the prescription food (by denying script refill authorization). Several conversations ensued after retailers notified us that this place was refusing to authorize refills. The bottom line is that this facility decided to hold the prescription food hostage until and unless we brought our cat, who was/is perfectly healthy otherwise since the blockage surgery, in for a checkup appointment. This cat either throws up, poops himself, or both virtually every time he is transported anywhere by car and gets stressed to the hilt when he is forced into a carrier and then taken somewhere in a car. As his owners and family it is our belief that the stress it would cause him to be taken in for an appointment, in light of his clearly good current health, would outweigh the benefits of scheduling a vet visit at present. This facility does not respect that decision, though, and despite originally providing a script that explicitly said he would need to be fed this food for the rest of his life and which prescription had no expiration date and which has not even been refilled 1/3 the number of times it was written to provide for refills, and which prescription food he has now been fed successfully for several years post-surgery, has determined that they will now hold the prescription hostage until he is brought in for a visit. We are currently working to gradually transition him off of the prescription food (albeit certainly a bit nervous) due to this unprincipled action, and if he indeed needs a trip back to the vet at some point you can bet your bottom dollar that it will not scheduled at this place. Be careful, as even if they may fix up your loved pet in an emergency situation, you may yet in the future find your prescription(s) being held hostage to future appointments. ------------------ Edit 8/4/2025 in response to Animal Medical Center of New England's 8/4/2025 reply to the above review: Response to my review "This should never be the impression we leave..." inaccurately implies there was some ambiguity in terms of the multiple conversations that ensued between myself and the facility. However in reality there was/is no ambiguity as to the circumstances involved. On multiple occasions the staff there have left no doubt about what transpired. Despite vet diet food script being written, post-surgery, with no expiration date and providing for enough refills to last for a decade plus, and despite writing on same prescription that our cat should receive *only* this food for the rest of his life and also reiterating the same verbally (that he should be fed *only* this food for life), you refuse(d) to authorize continued refills in accordance with the written script. The impression left is wholly consistent with both the reality and with the office ultimatum given; bring him back in or we will not authorize further food refills. "it's important to us that your cat remains healthy and comfortable..." rings darn hollow.
