Our Services

Dental Care

Dental care is vital to the overall health of your pet. Accumulation of tartar leads to periodontal disease and may seep into the bloodstream, affecting the heart, liver, and kidneys. We perform dental cleaning under general anesthesia and dental extractions when needed.

Surgery

We provide a wide selection of surgeries from routine spay and neuter to abdominal and orthopedic surgeries. All surgical procedures that required general anesthesia are done using the most modern anesthesia protocols, and monitored by highly trained technicians.

Ultrasound

We now offer a comprehensive abdominal ultrasound. Our top-notch ultrasound machine allows us to perform a high resolution evaluation of the liver, spleen, kidneys, adrenal glands, pancreas, intestine, lymph nodes and urinary bladder.

Diagnostic Tests

We provide a comprehensive selection of diagnostic lab tests. For immediate results, we can run onsite tests including CBC, Chemistry panel and Urine analysis. For further diagnostic tests, we use an external lab that provides a very short turnaround time.

Vaccinations

We offer a comprehensive vaccination protocol for dogs, cat and ferrets. Our veterinarians will help you determine the right vaccines for your pet based on age, life style and possible exposure. CLICK TO SEE WHICH VACCINES ARE RECOMMENDED FOR YOU DOG.

Emergencies

We see emergencies during working hours. If you feel that your pet experiences a medical condition that requires immediate attention, call the front desk and we will assess the urgency and will fit you in if warranted. We consider the following conditions as emergency...

Digital X-ray

We are proud to be on the cutting edge of veterinary technology. Our DR X-ray machine allows us to obtain a non invasive view of the various body parts (chest, abdomen and skeletal) within minutes. This is a valuable diagnostic tool that helps our veterinarians detect and prevent illness.

General Anesthesia

All surgeries are performed under the most modern anesthetic protocols. Your pet is closely monitored during anesthesia and surgery by a trained member of our staff, who is with your pet continuously from beginning of anesthesia to recovery. All anesthetic procedures require the placement of an IV catheter and use of IV fluids to prevent dehydration and provide support to the circulatory system.

Testimonials

Shellys W.

When my previous vet retired, I a friend recommended Dr. Shemer. I used to travel to North Windham Vet to bring my dogs to him and couldn't have been happier when he came to Tolland Veterinary Hospital! I highly recommend him if you want a vet that will take great care of your pet whether it's surgery or daily care.

Jessica H.

Everyone was amazing and kind. The techs, the people on the phone and the vet herself were all so wonderful and helpful. I have a german shepherd mix that has had an awful experience with a previous vet and he gets nervous. They kept his anxiety (and my anxiety) calm. The prices are fair and they were on time.

Samantha W.

Was recommended to this vet for my ferret and was no disappointed! Dr. Shemer is very knowledgeable with ferrets and talked me through all the options for my ferrets care. Was very polite and nice to talk to! Would highly recommend them also!
