Charlestown Pet Clinic

Dr. Olga is an exceptional veterinarian with a lifetime of hands-on experience in the field. Her knowledge, especially when it comes to bulldogs, is truly impressive. She is thorough, compassionate, and clearly passionate about what she does. I trust her completely and highly recommend her to anyone looking for expert veterinary care.

Dr. Olga is extremely knowledgeable. Our dog was previously misdiagnosed and mistreated, but Dr. Olga was able to quickly and accurately diagnose him and provide the right treatment. Now he is healthy and doing great. We also really appreciate that Dr. Olga does not recommend unnecessary procedures. She only ordered the tests that were truly needed and was able to diagnose our dog efficiently. On top of that, her prices are much more reasonable compared to other vets in the Boston area. We are very grateful for her care and highly recommend her!

Charlestown Pet Clinic is one of my top spots. Dr. Olga is absolutely great — professional, patient, and truly caring. Mello is always comfortable when he goes there, which means everything to me as a dog owner. You can tell they genuinely care about the animals and treat them like family. I highly recommend them.

We purchased a French bulldog puppy, and the question immediately arose of finding vet. On the advice of friends we went to this vet clinic. We are incredibly happy. From the first minutes we received answers to all our questions, got all the vaccinations. Thank you very much to Olga and her entire team! Thank you very much to Lisa and Tatyana for their competent advice. Special thanks to Lisa, who is in touch with me 24/7 and answers all my questions!

Dr. Olga has been seeing my (now 6 year old ) dog, Alaska, for well over a year now and each visit I’ve brought to her attention that Alaska seemed sick. I’ve mentioned specifically that she wasn’t eating well, she was lethargic, she had diarrhea, and that she seems shakes and seems weak. Each time I’ve visited I’ve been told Alaska is fine and am prescribed something and sent on our way. Our last visit was on Wednesday 5/17/23 - during this visit I expressed extreme concern for Alaskas health. She hadn’t been eating for several days and because Alaska ate treats from the vet Dr. Olga’s response was "don’t make something out of nothing" and then suggested blood work and vaccines and sent us on our way ($300 later). Fast forward three days later, Saturday 5/20/23 and Alaska was still not eating and her drinking started to slow. I brought her to a NEW vet and they drew blood and IMMEDIATELY found abnormalities and suggested further tests. Alaska had to stay the night because she wasn’t stable - $3,800 later - we found that Alaska has Addisons Disease and almost died. Dr. Olga either ignored the signs or didn’t know enough to treat my dog properly… either way, it’s not okay. This doctor and this clinic have lost all trust.

Dr. Olga really is great. She's knowledgeable, caring, cleared up all of the issues our dog had after we rescued him and not to mention manages a hectic schedule going to each location. The vet techs are good too. But the entire experience is stressful. Small and hectic waiting rooms, claims never being submitted to insurance, taking down the wrong information so they can never find your records, or forward them if needed. But the bill is always sent on time. My dog had what turned out to be a benign cyst removed, but the lab report said it was "terminal lung disease". Needless to say I had a meltdown and called 10 times to try to find out what to do, if that was even the right report, anything. The person on the phone said, "so why are you calling?" Finally, I got a response, an email that only said, "it might be terminal lung disease or it might not be", with the bill attached. It blew my mind. Now that we're at a different vet, I see how non stressful the experience can be.

The receptionist was lovely but I decided not to let Dr. Olga to treat my dog. I tried the Charlestown clinic given the convenience but it is well worth the walk to the North End Vet. The North End Vet has a calm waiting room and the staff greet my pet before trying to examine her. The Charlestown staff greeted my pet. The Vet did not. It caused my pet to become anxious which was not a good situation for anyone. I’m glad I left. I have never had an issue at The Pets Vet.
