Waltham Veterinary Hospital

Dr. Merola has taken excellent care of our cat Parker for twelve years, since he was a kitten, from regular visits to minor surgical procedures to the regular expressing of, shall we say, certain glands that, were I to attempt it, would draw back a stump. I have found her to be gentle and caring with our little guy, and very understanding with regard to scheduling when he sees the cat carrier coming and hides under the bed. I chose Dr. Merola simply because I knew where her office was the day a kitten came to my door, but it proved to be good one. Highly recommended.

I’ve been going to Dr. Merola for 15 years. Cowdiy was diagnosed with early kidney failure last fall. In December he contacted an infection that was taking over his body. Just when we thought he may not make it, Dr. Merola searched for the newest and best treatments—- and found one! That’s what she does! She loves our fur babies as much as we do, and will go to the end of the earth to help them to live very long, happy, healthy lives. Cowdiy is now 15 and thriving! Is I could see her as my PCP- I would!

Dr. Merola is kind and caring. She truly loves the animals and the people she works with. We would be lost without her!

Dr. Merola is always wonderful with my two dogs Panda and Leo. We love her practical approach to their care, and it's obvious she loves dogs.

I would absolutely not bring your animal here, even if it’s the only place w availability, go to urgent care. We brought our brand new kittens (9 weeks) in bc it was the only place that could take new appointments around us in a reasonable amount of time. It’s a 1 woman show and the space is dirty and poorly kept (probably because no staff). She did not have our kittens best interest in mind at all. Our cats were showing visible legions of ringworm and I had a spot of it on my own arm so we brought them in and she said they didn’t have it and didn’t treat them for it. She treated them for the rare case of fur mites (which our new vet confirmed they didn’t have). We looked up some of the other vaccines/meds she gave them, one was DISCONTINUED, and she didn’t have kitten doses on hand (even
