Services
When your pet falls sick, it is critical that you know the animal hospital taking care of them has the knowledge, skills, and diagnostic resources available to provide them with the best care possible. Unlike most small animal practices at Meriden Animal Hospital, we have advanced diagnostic capabilities to meet your animal's health care needs.
As a constantly growing, bustling practice, we are humbled to say that 90% of our new clients come to us based on referrals from friends, work colleagues, or family members. There is no higher compliment than having a customer who believes in your skills and shared compassion for animals and is passionate about sharing that with others.
Meriden Animal Hospital, MAH, a progressive privately owned small animal practice, has been serving Meriden and the surrounding area for over 50 years. The four veterinarians and staff at MAH have a long history of providing excellent care and have a deep commitment to the pets and families in our community.
These guidelines are based on the recommendations and protocols set by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) and the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA). In your puppy's first year, they will be seen several times by our veterinarians.
The reason for this is that several of the necessary vaccinations need to be given several times (i.e., boostered) in order for your puppy to build immunity to many of the common viruses that potentially can harm their health.During these initial visits, we will cover general puppy/dog care such as nutrition, monthly parasite preventative care, nail care, etc.

Meriden Animal Hospital is proud to be known within the local community as the "affordable veterinary hospital." We work hard to keep our pricing balanced, fair, and reasonable. We understand that you want the absolute best for your pet, and in certain situations, medical care for your pet can be expensive.

Our dog Jake had an abscess tooth that needed attention. While other places said they couldn't do it for several weeks, Meriden Animal Hospital did it within a couple of days. They took great care of Jake without breaking the bank and all the while making him and us comfortable. We will be going there from now on and highly recommend!

We have a 120 lb cane corso/ Italian mastiff. Due to having had multiple surgeries in his short 3 years of life, he is VERY afraid of any vets and animal hospitals. He is fear aggressive. Meaning if he is provoked, he will bite. He’s terrified… and unfortunately, a massive dog. We muzzle him and explain his behavior to every vet we have to deal with. Our dog requires sedation to be treated at all. As you can imagine, it takes a special vet doctor to have the patience and compassion to work with us. Dr. James at Meriden animal Hospital is a class act. We FINALLY feel like we have a vet who understands

The most caring people... It's not about money money ! Like Piper Olson is ! I was so grateful... They took me right in and cared for my cat.. and they let me be in the room with her.. unlike Piper Olsen... They were totally honest with me... They weren't trying to drain my bank account.. like Piper Olsen.! This is the best veterinarian I've ever been to.. and if I ever get another pet.. this is where I would go.. and I recommend this place to everyone.. the most caring staff.. they care about the pets.. not about money money money ! Piper Olson charged me 274 .00 to wait hours in the parking lot

The staff is very kind and really listen, I have never been rushed when I have questions about my "babies". My Mom had a stroke in May so I am taking care of her 14 year old Mini Poodle. Our little Poodle became ill and Dr. James and the staff all pitched in to help me. They were super busy but they didn't turn us away like her life long vet did out on Southington. Yeah, we know where the best place is!!! MAH!

My first time calling and was very impressed by the lovely young lady that answered the phone. She helped me book an appointment for Chloe 🐶. I met Dr. Vazquez and he was amazing and you can tell he cares for his furry patients. His technician was also great and friendly. Looking forward to seeing you again soon. Now I have a second puppy. I can’t wait until she sees Dr. Vazquez. Thank you all for the amazing job! You all made me feel
comfortable ❤️
