A pleasant experience. This was our first visit since moving to Coventry from out of state last year. We have 2 small dogs and needed annual shots, 100,000 mile check ups, blood work etc. Both Vet tech and Vet were very kind and friendly towards our dogs. They set both at ease with genuine feeling. This was the most relaxed in that setting we have seen them in 12 years. They were also great to us as well. Definitely a 5+ star review. No disappointments. We have found our new Vet.

I am a certified veterinary technician myself, and when it was time to choose a veterinarian for my service dog Beam, I knew whom to look for. I had an honor to personally know and to work with most doctors at Coventry Animal Hospital, and saw their professionalism, their dedication, their love for animals.
Now, each time I take Beam to a doctor, be it an annual wellness exam or any problem he may develop, I realize that my best friend is in very good hands.
As a veterinary professional, I highly recommend to choose Coventry Animal Hospital when choosing a doctor for your pet or your assistant

Our 22 year old cockatiel had reached the time when he could no longer enjoy his life on earth. The great staff and vets at Coventry Animal Hospital were able to help him peacefully transition to bird heaven. The staff here were compassionate and professional. We will bring our pets here for future care. Thank you to all the staff who helped us during a difficult time.

I’ve had such a great experience at Coventry Animal Hospital! I recently took my English bulldog mix puppy for her first visit. Everyone from office staff to the vet himself truly care about the pets and seem to love what they do! They are responsive, I emailed for a follow up and they got back to me in less than an hour. A HUGE change from previous vets I’ve used in the best way! And they are very reasonably priced! Highly recommend!!

Brought our boxer/mastiff in with an accident to his tail. The doctor, assistants and entire staff are incredible. Not only was our dog in great hands for his pretty urgent procedure but it was quick, efficient and the cost was shockingly less than we could've imagined. Great experience all around. Thank you to all involved at this top notch facility.

Coventry Animal Hospital is the absolute best at animal/ pet care-hands down. This group, from the administrative staff to the vet techs to the vet doctors have proven time after time that they are the most caring and professional veterinarian staff I have ever encountered. It’s a been a while since the pandemic but my visit today with my anxious dog was handled with the most incredible care I could ask for. Dr Lester has such an amazing presence with my dog and works together with the myself and the tech to make this visit tolerable and productive. I am forever grateful to this team!

Absolutely love them! They take such wonderful care of our rottweiler, who will be 12 yo soon. Reasonably priced, don't push you to do unnecessary tests or procedures to make money (like some other places we've been to). The vets make time to discuss the visit (even during this whole pandemic) and care plans. And their technicians are also the best...our pup loves them and they show her lots of love too! Only wish we had switched to them a long time ago.
