W Barrios DVM - East Hartford Animal Clinic

I was very disappointed when my guinea pig's nail was cut too short and he started bleeding. I told the lady at the front desk what happened and no apologies were given, I was still charged the same amount and it seemed as if no one cared.

I have always gone to another animal hosptial in East Hartford, but their prices were waaay too high to get my kitten spayed, so a friend of mine recommended I try this place. I was a little leery because I've always brought my pets to the other hospital, but I decided to take a chance and I'm so happy I did! Their hospital is sparkling clean and the staff and doctor there are just great! They also have the cutest house cat they call marmalade. She even has her own facebook page and t-shirts! Hahahaha! (My husband and I really got a kick out of that!) I would highly recommend this place!

We called everywhere trying to find a place that offered a reasonable price to get our cat fixed. We came across the east hartford clinic's website and found out about their Stitch program. It was a great deal! The hospital was very clean. The staff and the doctor were great too. We even got a picture of Lara when we picked her up after her surgery!

Reading the other reviews here, I couldn't disagree more. This place is great! Everyone is so friendly and they were able to get me in the same day. The prices are about the same everywhere else I've gone. I'm definitely going back.

No compassion what so ever from Dr. Barrios. I am sure that they see pet owners going through rough patches all the time, but some more respect is needed. Then I get a call after I have made the payment through direct debit, and I get a phone call stating they need me to come down to swipe my card again and that it hadn't worked while I was there, while I'm looking at the payment--that has been taken. They may be cheaper, but definitely are not worth your time.

Had an appt for 7:30am no one came to open the office until 8am. Got my dog neutered and once i got him home we was swelling a lot (by a lot I mean it got to the size of a cantaloupe). Called the 24 hour service 4 times before anyone called me back. Dr. Barrios said its no big deal at the beginning, but I kept on calling because it was continuing to grow. They told me to contact W Hartford Vet because they are associated, but when I called W Hartford they had no idea who Dr. Barrios from E Hartford vet was. So I took him to my normal 24 hour vet, Piper Memorial in Middletown. They took me right in and gave great care to my baby. So I paid EH Vet $200 for my puppy to be neutered and then $500 to Piper Memorial to have him admitted overnight because of complications. If I would have went to Piper from the beginning the second visit would have been free. I learned my lesson will not have surgery at a non-24 hour vet ever again. Not worth it.
