Been bringing my dogs here for 15 years to Dr Barrett. But since he has stepped back the place has changed I thought my dog was having a stroke and when I called they were too busy to see him or really even talk to me and sent me to the emergency vet then when I tried to order medication he needed for the problem they wouldn't sign this prescription unless I brought him to them for a checkup after the emergency vet the front desk is awful and the doctor is always too busy to even talk to you I'll never go back

Dr Slater and team are the best. They take care of our 3 Rottweilers and show genuine care and concern for our pets.

We were (regretfully) referred to this specialty vet clinic in the hopes they could help our dog. We had concerns over a fast growing lump in her mouth, and were told that unless she wasn't eating it wasn't an emergency. Well it eventually grew so large that she was bleeding out, and had to be put down after a months worth of time had been wasted. You're telling me that's not emergency worthy? Do not recommend this vet whatsoever, look elsewhere if you actually care about your pet.

Great staff! Attentive, friendly, accomodsting, always remember who I am & more. This is a modern veterinary practice with a small town feeling. They know & greet my dog &/or cats as well as me with smiles/concern appropriate to the situation and make me feel they are happy to see us even if things aren't great. Every time I'm there, I see all the pet patients (and their humans) treated like this. They are knowledgeable abouut the veterinary field. They listen carefully and are often able to guide me . I like that the "front office staff" aren't only receptionists, but knowledgeable about the veterinary field and know what questions to ask to make sure the appropriate time is scheduled & thst the doctor has the best information possible before seeing us. They are great at easing fears, boosting spirits, consoling patient & owner and more.I'm always impressed that when the doctors or technicians walk into the exam room, they give me a quick hello, then immediately focus on whomever I'm bringing in that day. They take the time necessary to be sure they have a good amount of time for observation & hands on time as well as listening carefully to my concerns and the information I give them is respected. The facility is always neat & clean and privacy is respected. I have used Salem Valley Veterinary since they opened, and despite the expected staff changes over time (20 or so years worth) the quality of services is still excellent. I highly recommend them and hope that you will take the time to develop a solid relationship with the staff as it only helps us both to give our precious companions the best life we can.

After being turned away from numerous vets that "don't take new patients" or didn't have specialists on staff to see my elderly and sick rabbit, salem valley squeezed me in to have him euthanized...the doctor took her own time (that was not scheduled) to come in the operatory and answer my questions and reassure me that my choice was humane. Also discussed the unlikely, but possible alternatives- no pressure, but reassurance from the whole team. I was given plenty of time and privacy with my guy as I was saying goodbye. The staff as a whole were pleasant to interact with in such a difficult time. Thank you so much for seeing me today.

We had a wonderful experience at Salem Valley Veterinary Clinic! Our pup needed a tooth extraction, yet she's difficult to handle for any veterinary care. The staff was so understanding and willing to help our pup get care with the least amount of stress. Dr. Baratt and the vet techs were communicative throughout the surgery process (a huge plus for a worried owner) and explained everything clearly. Most of all the care was excellent and our pup is recovering well and on her way to a pain-free mouth! thanks to all who helped care for our Frannie at Salem Valley!

We followed Dr. Hunt to this practice and transferred our records. They were filling our dogs prescriptions and then suddenly stopped! We made three calls. Two went unanswered and the third, a woman who identified as the office manager, answered the phone. She told us that our dogs are not patients and not only would they not fill any further prescriptions but that they are not taking new patients. Our dogs are on meds that they need for the rest of their lives and now we are scrambling to get our dogs what they need. Our recommendation ... do not waste your time with this practice!
