Since 1967, we have been committed to providing quality veterinary care for both large and small animals in Northeastern MA and Southern NH. Located in historic Amesbury, MA, the Amesbury Animal Hospital is a full-service mixed animal hospital. Since 1967, we have been committed to providing quality veterinary care for both large and small animals. We provide Northeastern Massachusetts and Souther
n New Hampshire communities with routine medical, surgical and dental veterinary care as well as herd health and emergency services. Candee joined the practice in 1970. Originally, the practice serviced over twenty local dairies and provided veterinary care for other livestock, horses and companion animals as well. Over the years, the number of dairy farms in the area has slowly diminished, but our practice continues to provide the highest quality veterinary care for both our large and small animal patients. In 1991, Dr. Kirk T. Smith joined us, followed by Dr. Jacqueline L. Bastien in 1994. Both share large and small animal duties with our associates: Dr. Kelly A. Butterworth and Dr. Holly Williams. We also have two other small animal-only doctors: Dr. Linda Hanneman and Dr. Stephanie Andruskevich. Dr. Marston retired from active practice in 2002, but he still stops by from time to time to visit as well as Dr. Candee who retired in 2020. The past forty years has brought a lot of changes to our practice, but our compassion and dedication to our patients has remained constant. For our small animal patients, we offer comprehensive wellness exams, preventative medicine including vaccinations, parasite control and senior screening, surgical services, dentistry and emergency services. Our facility includes in-house laboratory, pharmacy, digital radiology, ultrasound and endoscopy capabilities. For our large animal patients, we provide ambulatory routine healthcare including vaccinations and parasite control, herd health services, lameness examinations, pre-purchase exams, equine dentistry and emergency services. We have portable radiology and ultrasound equipment available as well as our in-house laboratory and pharmacy services. Our doctors and staff are experienced and caring, and several of our staff members have been with us over twenty years. We currently employ two certified veterinary technicians, 10-12 other employees as technicians, receptionists, laboratory staff and animal care assistants.
