Clark Veterinary Hospital

Been going here since moving to Nashua 6 years ago. The veterinarians, vet techs, and front reception are wonderful, and I’ve had nothing but good experiences with them all. I feel like my dog and cat are taken care of and they answer all my silly questions. They call to check up after procedures and medications/vaccines, which I really appreciate. The building is quiet (no dogs barking) and my dog is extremely anxious in general but calms down quite easily once in the exam rooms. They never push my dog too hard and take their time by sitting on the floor with him to let him get accustomed to being touched by them. Every vet is expensive now, I won’t judge based on that (insurance and thrive have helped). They became a Thrive vet a few years ago, and I was skeptical at first but Thrive has made booking appointments easy and with the app I am able to see all the medical records and test results instantly. I have recommended this vet office to others and will continue to do so!

My Havanese, who will be eighteen years old in mid May, has been seen by Dr. Amy Snedaker twice this year and she has been wonderful. The first visit was for a routine physical; the second for the care and cleaning of a non cancerous tumor on the back of his neck which had become infected. If you are seeking gentle, kind, experienced care of your senior pup, I highly recommend Dr Snedaker and the staff at Clark vet.

The staff at Clark Veterinary are exceptional. We’ve recently returned to using them for our pet care after leaving the practice a few years back. They’re wonderful routine health maintenance visits. However, we’re now dealing with a new chronic illness with our dog and have needed them recently for an urgent issue with our cat. They have listened carefully to my concerns, provided thorough examinations, and are clear when as they presented our options for care. We’ve also used them for euthanasia and they could not have provided a better experience for our family.

I recently took my cat to Clark Veterinary Hospital for the first time as a new cat owner. I was impressed by the friendly and welcoming atmosphere at the clinic. Dr. Clemmer treated us with kindness and professionalism. She demonstrated high levels of knowledge and was gentle with my cat, taking the time to go at his pace. I appreciated that she patiently answered all of my questions without making me feel rushed. I was also pleased with the information I received about their membership and pet insurance options. What I liked most was that I never felt pressured to commit to anything unnecessary, and they were transparent about costs, keeping my budget in mind. Overall, I had a fantastic experience at Clark Veterinary Hospital and would highly recommend it to other pet owners. I feel confident leaving my cat in their care, which means a lot to me. 😻

I have had many pets in my lifetime and when you reach the point of deciding to let one go, it is a heartbreaking decision. Clark Veterinary Clinic, by far, was the most compassionate and loving experience when we recently had to let our dog go. They provided my family and I a room with a blanket that said "love is love is love". They let us take our time and even provided chocolate as a treat for our dog to experience at the end of her life! It was beautiful and loving and when we were done there was a door to the outside where we could depart without needing to see others. I cannot thank the Clark Veterinary staff enough for the compassion and heartfelt care they demonstrated to my dog and my family.

We have been going to Clark Veterinary Hospital since they opened. My husband brought his first pug as a little boy there and over the past 16 years we've been bringing our cats and pugs there too. They are always willing to accommodate and quick to get your little babies in. We love everyone there!

I am writing as a client of Clark Veterinary Hospital for over ten years. During the earlier years of my time with your practice, my experiences were consistently positive, compassionate, and supportive—especially while caring for a cat with feline leukemia and subsequent health complications, which required frequent visits. Your clinic was once a place I trusted deeply with my animals. Unfortunately, over the past few years, the environment has changed dramatically. I have left multiple visits in tears, feeling dismissed and uncomfortable, but continued to give grace under the assumption that staff may have been having difficult days. My most recent visit, however, has led me to conclude that I can no longer bring my pets to your clinic. I called late in the day regarding a sick kitten and was initially scheduled for the following morning. After a brief hold, I was encouraged to bring her in immediately, which I did. The receptionist, as always, was kind, welcoming, and professional—she consistently represents the best of your practice and deserves recognition for that. Once we were in the exam room, the experience changed entirely. The veterinary technician assigned to us was openly hostile in demeanor—rolling his eyes, making audible disgruntled noises, and behaving as though our presence was an inconvenience. He asked whether my kitten was "even up to date on shots" while putting on heavy bite-proof gloves and regarding her as though she were dangerous or unclean. The behavior was unnecessary, unprofessional, and deeply upsetting. When I attempted to answer his question with context rather than a simple yes or no, he made it very clear that he did not want any explanation. As a concerned pet owner seeking help for a sick animal, this felt dismissive and demeaning. When the veterinarian entered the room, her questions were largely unrelated to the reason for our visit. She quickly presented a list of tests she wished to perform without first taking the time to fully understand the issue that brought us in. At no point did I feel heard, supported, or treated as a partner in my pet’s care. When the vet tech brought my baby out of my sight, I had an uneasy feeling. I found myself genuinely worried about how they were treating her. I left that visit heartbroken and questioning whether the staff at this clinic even enjoy working with animals anymore. Compassion, patience, and communication are essential in veterinary medicine—especially when dealing with frightened pets and worried owners. That compassion was entirely absent during this visit. I share this not lightly, but because this clinic once meant so much to me and my pets. I hope this feedback is taken seriously and used to reflect on staff conduct and client experience. I would also urge you to value and protect your front desk staff—she is consistently exceptional and deserves far better than the environment surrounding her. Sincerely, Jenny Clarke
