Hartford Veterinary Hospital Newington, Connecticut

I have gone there for years and just love their caring and attention to detail for my dogs.

Dr. Haines and support staff are fantastic. My family has been fortunate having established a relationship with Hartford Veterinary over 20 ago. Dr.Haines is a compassionate and highly skilled veterinarian. I would only use other services if Dr. Haines was unavailable. Appointments always on time .And affordable. I would encourage animal lovers to meet Dr.Haiens.

Dr. Haines is by far the most down to earth vet, ever! He knows, and I travel 50 miles one way to bring our furry friends to him. Let's not forget his team. No names, but J is the best!

I will be so sad when Dr. Haines retires. I've been bringing my cats here on and off for 35 years. When I say "off" it's only because I couldn't get an appointment and had to go elsewhere due to the phone being rarely answered. For example, the last time my pet needed an appointment I started calling at 8:30 am, when they open. I received the night message saying that they were closed. That went on for 30 minutes. After that I got another message saying that they couldn't get to the phone. In person the staff is great and Dr Haines is exceptional. It may be easier to drive there and make the appointment in person. If it's an emergency they will do their best to squeeze you in.

My friend recommended Hartford Veterinary to me. I was impressed. The doctor and his staff are friendly and empathetic towards both my pet and myself.Thank you.l

The staff is so caring and attentive. My dog was sick and Dr. Haines called me every single morning when he got to work to check-in on my dog and get an update until we got him back on track. They will squeeze you in if you feel you need to come in immediately and they will not nickel and dime you in any way.

No body picks up phone, called a few tines,

My GF brought our cat in to be spayed. It's been over a year now and she's still going into heat. My GF called and talked with him what was going on and he told her that he doesn't do that anymore. He won't correct the problem.

Was in and out for a ingrown nail on my cat unlike my wife's experience at the animal hospital in Middletown where she waited 8hrs for the same cat that they never even took a look at till 2:30 in the morning and still did nothing don't take your pets to it ever.

It was good and affordable. Now it's as expensive as any other vet hospital. Hold onto your wallet.

It was a great experience as always. Everyone was very friendly. Always great to see Dr Haynes. Went there for my cat annual exam and shots. She was fantastic. Plus they made the visit great there. Especially at this difficult time. I always love coming here. I wouldn't go nowhere else.

I have used Hartford Vet for over 15 years. I would never use any other animal hospital. They are always there when you need then, they do not push unnecessary procedures and the staff all know my and my pets' names. No. There are no hi tech gizmos and gadgets, just fine veterinary care. If high tech and finely decorated office space is what you want, go elsewhere. For solid , personalized care use Hartford Vet.

Sometimes they don’t answer the phone, but Dr. Haines has been wonderful. I will keep going there as long as they’re open for my three kittens!

Very nice people very caring

Worst place ever..absouletly terrible couldn't even help us with our dog who had cancer the doctor said most likely an infection nope was cancer had to go to another vet to tell us that..never returned phone calls the list goes on

Love Dr. Haines and his staff, they're the best!

Dr Haines and his staff are the best, they all care about the animals and it shows, honest and fair pricing!

Dr. Haines is a very gentle, patient man who obviously loves animals and has a really good rapport with them! He has cared for my and my friends animals for years and kept them happy and healthy! ( :

Dr. Haines is a wonderful vet and truly loves animals. The clinic itself though is outdated and the front desk could use some upgrades as well. You have to call several times to get through to them because they only have one line and seem to be understaffed. Their hours are also very odd. I wish they called when your pet was due for check up/shots but again... understaffed. Their mantra here is “simple”... there’s nothing fancy about the joint but they get the job done and have compassion. Good prices because of it too!

Doctor takes such great care of our cat!!!

Going there for years the best

Nothing fancy at the office but he immediately diagnosed my cat and gave me recommendations using homeopathy...how to make & keep her better in addition to her shots and meds. My cat was very comfy with him and she's afraid of men. He explains everything very well. Does not talk over your head. Pricing was very reasonable. Didn't try to sell me things my cat didn't need. I appreciate that. Former Plainville vet misdiagnosed my cat for same condition and charged over twice as much after saying no charge for first office visit. RIP off vets. Plainville treated her for condition she did not have & Sold me overpriced useless items that did not work. They will not see my animals ever again.

Very Happy! felt listened to and reassured. Excellent ideas to help my pet. Wonderful people , kind and pleasant. very nearly thought i was in Ireland again. Positive vibes. Relaxed. Homey atmosphere. Hi Quality care.

Doc Haines is the best and most caring vet.

Dr. William A. Haines has been the greatest role model and veterinarian to me. I congratulate him on his 54 years of practicing and making everyone's animals healthier and happier.

I adopted a 4 month old kitten from the CT Humane Society at last weekend's "Clear The Shelter" event. Unfortunately, my kitten acquired a nasty kennel cold before coming home with us. Her sneezing and runny eyes have gotten worse over the past week. I chose this facility due to it's location and the overwhelming amount of great reviews. I should have read them more closely. I'm sure this is a nice place, but it should be posted somewhere online that an appointment is required or even better if the office staff would answer the phone to provide that info so that potential customers don't waste their time driving with a sick animal to be turned away at the door. I wouldn't recommend this place.

Dr Haines is the best with all animals

Have been going here since the early late 70s, no better vet around. Great staff and all are knowledgeable about most things if Dr. Is busy, but most times Dr. H calls me himself when I have a concern. We love him so much.

Great vet Dr Hains and the prices are a great value

Veterinarian and staff are very nice. Awesome care and affordable prices
