Meet the Veterinarians in Wells, ME
At Post Road Veterinary Clinic, we take pride in delivering personalized, compassionate care to our patients and their guardians in Wells and surrounding areas. Our team strives to provide a comfortable environment for our patients and clients, and we want everyone, either two-legged or four, to feel welcome as soon as they enter our veterinary clinic. This all starts with a warm hello and coffee for you and a yummy treat for your pet. Our hospital opened its doors in 2001 and offers a wide range of medical services and surgeries for dogs and cats in the southern York County area. We’re located at 746 Post Road – at the corner of Route 1 and the 9B. It may be easier to access the clinic in the summer via the 9B (Littlefield Road). At the office, our patients are primarily cats and dogs. We would also be happy to schedule house calls as necessary for your convenience.
