This dental specialty practice is the only vet office in Massachusetts that would even consider helping my dog with her gum overgrowth, cracked tooth and mass removal. She has a heart arrhythmia and is a senior rescue pittie who wasn’t taken care of for most of her life until my husband and I adopted her. When we tried to get her dental care, Angell couldn’t help, and had 6 month long waiting lists for appointments. And her regular vet couldn’t help because she lacked the expertise and equipment. She referred me to VDS on a whim hoping they could help, and I waited 3 months to get an appointment. But, it was worth the wait and price if you can afford it, 100%. My dog had every issue taken care of in one day, I had a ton of communication about the procedure and how she was doing. Dr Clayton and Dr Shope are fantastic, shout out to Mandy and Sydney for being great vet techs. My sweet, senior rescue pitbull now has the dental care she always deserved

5 month old golden retriever retained baby tooth extraction on Feb. 24, 2017. Invoice: 429339 I didn’t want to take any risks having my dog 5 month-old Golden Retriever's retained baby tooth extracted. So, I chose Veterinary Dental Services “few and far between” specialty practice and a one day event given the facility is 52 miles from home. I trusted in reasonable fees - given a policy of no fee quoted prior to in-person consult. In hindsight, I was setting myself up for unnecessary expense and a full day away from work. COST: 1614.37. By comparison: a local vet quoted me 800 and Boston dentist 1k-1,200 for a porcelain-fused-to-metal crown. Pet Insurance is no relief: Embrace Pet insurance covered a total of 60 (paying 390 for a wellness policy). Wow — that’s an awesome fee for pulling a baby tooth from my pup. SERVICE EXPERIENCE: I was asked to arrive at 8:45 a.m. sharp (left my home at 6:30 a.m. to make it) to find there was another procedure scheduled before hers. My pup was kenneled until early afternoon and I lost a full day’s work for the 12 minute actual extraction procedure. Surely a 3 hour window for my pups care would have sufficed. My bad for not insisting on a range of service fees for the procedure. I ended up paying an unreasonably high bill for services other professional vets offered closer to home at a reasonable price.
Initial surgeries over a year ago relieved this wonderful rescue pug of years of overall pain and eating discomfort. He has had a fine year up to now. Jenn and Dr. Feigin were very sympathetic to my dog's many health issues. He never left Jenn's arms from the time I passed Brutus to her. Intake person listed all the information I gave her correctly, for the record. Dr. Feigin carefully explained Brutus's condition and, wisely, I think, recommended I take care of his seizure issues before considering anesthesia which would accompany any procedures on his mouth, especially since her initial survey showed no major issues. Thanks for giving this dog final years of good life.
Vetinary Dental Services were extremely professional and took great care of our pet for their procedures. The prices quotes were very accurate. The staff was very friendly and considerate. The amount of detail provided to us in a take-home folder of our pets procedure was impressive. It really showed the amount of time and detail they took to give the best care to our pet. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for and form of dental work for their pet.
There words: Pet Parents Lounge. This place was great. Its the little things here in addition to the amazing, knowledgeable staff. Lil pup in for all day surgery. Drove from Boston and we were able to relax in the little room away from the main lobby with a desk (still able to work remotely while waiting) a couch, chairs, cable tv, keurig etc. Even a cozy blanket! I felt so much at ease in the midst of being so worried about my pup. Dr F checked in with me 4 times with updates. And the extraction went well and my pup is doing great! At discharge we got before and after photos, a flash drive with the x-rays, meds, information printouts and all our questions answered. My pup was really well taken care of and the place and staff are really really terrific and kind. I always wish ppl put what they paid in these reviews, i feel like it'd be so helpful so i will. Obvy what you need will vary but my pup needed LOTS of extractions and cleaning. He's a 12 yo 19lb mix. The initial lab work/exam was i thinkkkk somewhere around 400-450(vs my normal vet was 250). Yea its a lot. I know. But worth it. Then i was scheduled 3 months out for the surgery (busy place). But these folks are pros and we had special issues our normal vet couldn't handle. Small dog, small jaw, bottom canines removed. Often pups' jaws get broken without a vet dental specialist during that procedure) and they initially quoted me something like 3050-3800. YIKES. My cost ended up 3150 as everything went great, no problems. Again, that all depends. It was just my experience, cost wise. But honestly at the end of the day ill pay for the peace of mind to know that they do an excellent and thorough job there and my pup was more likely to have the best possible outcome, plus I got xrays and pictures and a 3-4 week follow up w the vet at no additional cost. So while this can def break the bank, for me it was well well well worth it. Esp if you have to get it done anyway. Many thanks to Nikki and Dr. F.
