We selected Riverlin because few vets in the area take care of rabbits. Riverlin was terrific. The entire staff was involved and caring both times we brought our rabbit in for a visit. When our rabbit needed to be euthanized, we were not charged for the visit and received a very nice hand-written note. We’ll certainly be back when our feline family members need care :-)

My 17-year-old cat, who’d obviously been dealing with health issues for some time, suddenly took a major turn for the worse Monday night/Tuesday morning, before I was prepared for the situation. I first called Tufts, who would’ve charged me $ 160 for the office visit alone, not to mention whatever lifesaving or other measures had to be taken with him. After Googling nearby veterinarians, I found Riverlin. I knew nothing about them other than that their website seemed to indicate an utter lack of pretension on their part. Inasmuch as you can tell from the other side of the screen, the business seemed to be staffed by kind, authentic people. So I took a chance and called.
The woman who answered was indeed both kind and professional, and I briefly explained the situation. She took my information and said she’d fit me in and that they waive the $ 54 exam fee for an initial visit, so that I would just be paying the $ 25 emergency visit fee, plus whatever else I chose to do.
I arrived within an hour of calling and was seen relatively promptly, first by Kelley and then by Liz. They were gentle with my cat, who was in a lot of pain, and gentle with me as well, explaining my options and truly giving me all the time and space I needed to make an utterly non-pressured decision. Liz wrote up an itemized, priced list of available treatment options, ranging from minimum to maximum, and telling me what would be absolutely necessary, were I to go that route, and what could possibly be helpful but wasn’t in the «absolutely necessary» category. I went back and forth for a while but in the end, chose to euthanize him. I stayed there with him while they injected him, and then they wrapped him up for me so I could bury him at home.
I was not charged for the euthanasia, and today, three days later, received a very thoughtful note in the mail from them. This is above and beyond what I expected from people just meeting me and my cat for the first time. They were so sensitive and respectful throughout, and this extra step of sending out a card has really touched me.

When you’re dealing with a pet that is clearly in serious pain, you feel completely out of control and helpless. When my 4 year old beagle/boxer mix was suffering, I called my regular vet on a Monday morning, and they had no availability until Thursday of that week. Clearly I felt it was an emergency and I could not wait until Thursday and neither could my dog. My vet referred me to Riverlin Animal Hospital in Millbury and called them at 8:15 a.m. on a Monday morning. The tech who answered the phone was so friendly and comforting. I was clearly very upset and worried about my dog and she made sure that he could be seen immediately even though it was a very busy Monday morning for them. I got an appointment at 9 a.m., and Dr Campbell was available to see us. The doctor, along with everybody else clearly love animals and I couldn’t have asked for better care for my dog. I left that day with a prescription and a diagnosis, and a great feeling knowing that my dog was taken care of with the highest quality of care. I am definitely considering a permanent switch to Riverlin Animal Hospital.
