Rutland Veterinary Clinic
Rutland Veterinary Clinic is a full service veterinary clinic that has been serving the beautiful town of Rutland and surrounding communities since 1995. We are located near the center of town at 203 Main St. (122-A), in one of the lovely old homes of Rutland.

We may look small but we care for a large number of dogs, cats, ferrets, rabbits, pocket pets, and the occasional chicken, duck and small ruminant brought in by the varied human population of the area.Our reputation is built on honesty and compassion and a belief that the animals that give us so much love deserve the best in medical care.
Services
Dr. Robin Chapman and her associate Dr. Deborah Klingener are both 1985 graduates of Tufts University Veterinary School. Dr. Chapman began in a mixed animal practice with concentration in food animal medicine. She went on to work 6 years in a mostly small animal hospital where she was able to learn a wide variety of surgical procedures, and then started Rutland Veterinary Clinic from scratch in 1995.
After hour emergencies are covered for our clients. If you call the clinic (508-886-2286) after working hours the answering machine will usually provide you with Dr. Chapman's cell phone number. You can call her and she will return your call. If Dr. Chapman is out of town or unavailable, instructions for numbers to emergency clinics will be on the answering machine for you.
We are finally into winter and the temperatures have really dropped. Here at the Rutland Vet we often see this as showing up with an extra 2 to 10 pounds on the spring time scale. This is SOMETIMES winter weight that is lost over the warm months, but is all to often a net gain that happens year after year until the poor fat dog or cat can not move enough to ever get it off again.

One visit and Dr. Klingener found the issue with my dog, she gave me an answer. My old vet could not!!! For 2 years I have been bringing my dog to a vet in Worcester and they couldn't give me what was wrong I appreciate Dr. Klingener!!!!

I took our 9 month old Cavapoo for an emergency care that happened on Friday night two weeks ago. Dr. Macpherson and the staff were very attentive and professional. Your generosity saved our dog’s life. I can’t thank you enough! Highly recommended.

We found out Henny_Cat IS a GIRL. We thought she was a Male cat, the pound told us so. It was hilarious when I found out.
Besides that the expirence was basically perfect. Everything went well & quick. Reasonable amount of money for the care of my kitty.
Pleased & Happy

Not our usual veterinarian. Called with emergency, and doctor responded quickly and took our kitty into clinic for diagnostic work. Gave us a time frame for when she could get back to us, asap. I'm totally impressed.

Sad….we love the MD….office staff….not so much. We all have busy lives these days….more reason to help each other and be accommodating!! Rutland Vet had called me last week to reschedule my original appointment today at 4:45….to come in at 3:45…..sure! Today, I called to see if my kitten could be seen a few minutes before her scheduled time, to allow me to pick up my son, rather than canceling altogether. The woman that answered the phone, “sure! We are running on time today!”. I said I would be there in 10-15 minutes and would call from the parking lot. Once I arrived and called

I just picked up my dog, Wulf, from having dental surgery and couldn't be happier! Everything went perfectly and he is resting comfortably after eating a little food. This place continues to offer exceptional care and I highly reccomend them! Five big stars!!

Been bringing all my animals here for over 15 years. Small animals such as guinea pigs, my cats and dogs. Friendly staff and very helpful. I am glad they specialize in small animals since most vet clinics in the area do not. My animals have lived long healthy lives being patients at Rutland vet!
