Who Rates Best (& Worst) in the Boston Area? Now You'll Know.
|
You understand the meaning of the phrase "man's best friend." Your pet is loyal, provides companionship, and is there for you through good times and bad. So when your pet is injured or feeling under the weather, you want the best for it-though you'd like not to have to declare bankruptcy to get it. We rate area veterinary practices for both quality and price.

CHECKBOOK provides subscriber comments on their experiences with the firms they use. Please remember that individual subscriber comments are informal. Subscriber comments may give you insight into the types of features and problems that exist in a service field, but are not the best basis for selecting or rejecting a specific firm. To assess the quality of a firm's performance, we recommend that you give more weight to the percentages of favorable ratings. Those percentages are generally based on much larger numbers of consumers' ratings (the number of consumer ratings is noted above).
|
As You Can See Below, Some Veterinarians Get High Praise from Their Customers. Some Others Don't. So Choose Carefully.
Here Are a Few Samples of the Thousands of Comments CHECKBOOK Has Collected on Hundreds of Different Veterinarians.
