Listen to the PodcastYOUR OTHER FAMILY DOCTOR from sharing walks,(and some secrets too) our pets are more than just a furry friend they’re family. We want to ensure that you spend a long, healthy life together. With a focus on wellness, Boston Veterinary Clinic takes a modern approach to pet care, while minimizing fear and stress with each and every vet visit.
OUR VISION
The goal of every loving pet parent is for his or her furry companion to live a long, happy and healthy life. Boston Veterinary Clinic began as a concierge practice, delivering exceptional pet health care services in the comfort and security of our clients’ homes. Over time, we have grown and evolved to also include in-clinic care within our state of the art Boston area veterinary hospital, located in Boston’s historic Bay Village neighborhood.

DR. B'S TIPS
pudgy pooch?
Diet starts… today. Carrying extra weight creates stress on joints and directly correlates with a shorter lifespan. So, toss those table scraps and treats—and opt for healthy alternatives (like carrot and apples.) In the words of Dr. B, “show love with petting and playing instead.”
DR. B'S TIPS
smelly smooches?
No pet parent likes smelly smooches. But, did you know that poor dental hygiene can cause behavioral changes and decrease overall health? Be sure to brush your furry friend’s teeth and give them dental chews. Most importantly, don’t miss your pet’s annual checkup.
DR. B'S TIPS
midlife crisis?
Pets age seven times as fast as we do. So, while you’re opting for Botox or trying CrossFit, your furry friend is rapidly maturing. Attending annual checkups ensure there’s a health history just in case new and unusual symptoms should arise.
DR. B'S TIPS
bugging out?
When it comes to parasites, prevention is the best plan. Flees, ticks, and heartworm can result in unpleasant or lethal infestation. Easily avoidable, Dr. B recommends year-round medication, especially when urban pets take seaside staycations or impromptu hikes.
DR. B'S TIPS
scaredy cat?
You and your pet shouldn’t feel anxiety-ridden every time you visit the vet. Dr. B recommends finding a certified Fear Free clinic that puts the patient first. With a series of governing principles, the Fear Free practice reduces fear, anxiety, and stress right from the start.
DR. B'S TIPS
feeling isolated?
Don’t use your precious PTO on vet visits. Core vaccinations, like rabies and bordetella shots, are required. But, Dr. B encourages assessing each pet’s individual environment. In many cases, canine influenza can result in sickness for over four weeks. Meaning? No puppy classes or doggy daycare for your pooch.
I have visited all three BVC locations and have been consistently impressed by the Veterinarians, Vet Techs, and Front Office team. Buttercup has received the most wonderful and personalized care, adapting to her needs and going above and beyond in every single situation. I am so grateful to have found the Boston Veterinary Clinic!

Dr. Lindsay Gallagher is a University of Pennsylvania graduate with a passion for behavior. She loves meeting new people, traveling to new places, and learning new things, like playing the guitar, juggling, and improv comedy. If she was a dog, she would be a Jack Russell terrier - she's short, spunky, and bursting with energy. She might look small, but she's not afraid to go after her big goals, no matter what.
