Our Commitment to Your Pet's Well-being

At Montowese Veterinary Clinic, we believe that the bond between a pet and their family is truly special. Our dedicated team of veterinary professionals strives to be an extension of your family, providing compassionate care and support throughout your pet's life. Since 1977, we have been committed to making companion animal health a priority in North Branford and the surrounding areas.

We understand that your pet is more than just an animal - they are a cherished member of your family. That's why we go above and beyond to create a comfortable and stress-free environment for both you and your furry companion. We take pride in our ability to build trusting relationships with our clients and their pets, understanding their individual needs and providing personalized care.

A Team Devoted to Excellent Care

Our lead veterinarian, Dr. Mendillo, joined Montowese Veterinary Clinic in 2019, bringing with her a wealth of experience and a true passion for animal welfare. Dr. Mendillo is dedicated to offering the highest quality care to every patient, performing all surgeries, teeth cleanings, and X-rays herself. She is also committed to staying at the forefront of veterinary medicine, continually seeking out advanced training and knowledge to ensure she provides the most up-to-date and effective treatments.

Dr. Mendillo recognizes that some medical cases may require the expertise of specialized veterinarians. That's why we have forged a strong partnership with Central Hospital for Veterinary Medicine, a state-of-the-art facility located just minutes away. This collaboration allows us to seamlessly connect our patients with board-certified specialists when needed, ensuring that your pet always receives the most comprehensive care possible.

Comprehensive Services to Meet Your Pet's Needs

We understand that your pet's health and well-being are paramount. That's why we offer a comprehensive range of veterinary services to address all of their needs, from routine wellness exams to advanced surgical procedures.

Our preventive care services include:

• Wellness Exams: Annual physical examinations are essential for maintaining your pet's health. We tailor each exam to your pet's individual needs and discuss any concerns you may have.

• Vaccinations: Vaccinations are crucial for protecting your pet from life-threatening diseases. We will work with you to develop a vaccination schedule that is appropriate for your pet's age, lifestyle, and health status.
• Teeth Cleaning: Dental disease is common in both dogs and cats, and can lead to serious health problems if left untreated. We offer professional dental cleanings under anesthesia to ensure a thorough and effective cleaning.
• Spay and Neuter: Spaying or neutering your pet is a responsible decision that helps to prevent unwanted litters, reduces the risk of certain cancers, and can improve their behavior.

In addition to our preventive care services, we also offer a wide range of other veterinary services, including:

• Soft Tissue Surgery: Dr. Mendillo is skilled in performing a variety of soft tissue surgical procedures,

such as spays, neuters, mass removals, and gastrointestinal surgery.

• In-House Diagnostics: Our clinic is equipped with advanced diagnostic equipment, allowing for prompt and accurate diagnosis of a variety of medical conditions.
• Laser Therapy: Laser therapy has become an increasingly popular treatment option for a variety of conditions, providing pain relief, reducing inflammation, and promoting healing.

• Allergy Treatment: We understand that allergies can be a common problem for pets, causing discomfort and affecting their quality of life. We offer allergy testing and treatment options to help your pet find relief.

• Cryosurgery: Cryosurgery is a highly effective, minimally invasive procedure that uses extreme cold to destroy unwanted tissue.

• Humane Euthanasia: We understand that saying goodbye to a beloved pet is one of the hardest decisions a pet owner has to make. We provide compassionate and dignified end-of-life care to ensure your pet's final moments are peaceful and comfortable.

• Emergency Care: We recognize that emergencies can happen at any time. While we are not a 24/7 emergency hospital, we offer emergency services during our regular business hours.
