Charles Street Animal Clinic

My dog is treated with patience and kindness the moment we enter the facility. Love this location! Very knowledgeable and caring staff and the doctors are always so helpful and always go above and beyond explaining and educating us in order to squash our worries. Thank you Charles Street Animal Clinic! -Milo M.

My cat and I visited this clinic last winter and I’ve been debating writing this review. Well, here it is. It was a strange experience. The receptionist was very nice and knowledgeable on the phone. However the doctor… I get the impression Dr. Wosko doesn’t like cats and/or is judgmental of your address. During the exam he did his best to avoid interactions with my cat. My cat is very friendly and greets everyone he meets—fluffy Siberian cuddle muffin. Dr Wosko kept pushing him away like he didn’t want to touch him. He also had his back turned to us most of the time. Exam was perfunctory at best. Dr Wosko was more interested in talking about his own broken wrist than acknowledging my cat. The other oddity was how he mentioned my address. I live around the corner, but I chose to write down my second address on the form (also located in Boston, in a different neighborhood). The way he said it — it was odd. Furthermore, my address was not relevant to the exam; it was unnecessary to mention it. Is this a classist thing? This clinic is in a nice area. I came here because I live nearby and it’s convenient. I expected a certain level of care and attention given the area and how cute this clinic is. I left with a bad taste and decided to go elsewhere for veterinary care because this fluffy cuddle muffin deserves it. I’m glad I did because the place I ended going to is very nice. The doctors and staff were super affectionate and warm, which reassured me that I had made the right decision not to return here. Sorry for this poor review. But clearly this experience left a mark.

I live across the street and needed help with tick removal and they were so helpful and took me immediately. Thank you so much for great service!

We have been using their services for many years and love them. They are really great for the day to day pet services. However, this is just a clinic, so there are times that you will need to use their parent hospital, South Bay Animal Hospital. One good thing is the doctors travel between the two facilities so that you can see the same doctor in either place.

They made making an appointment for a covid puppy safe and convenient! Easy to get to from where we live in East Boston. Dr. Wasco answered all of our questions thoughtfully and took time with us and our pup. You call when you get there, chat outside, then they take your pet in. It was efficient.
