This was Severus and my first time going to the vet since I’ve had him. I worried about who to trust him with or if the facilities was adequate for his care.Burlington Veterinary Center far exceeded my expectations. Dr. Esherick and the staff made Severus and I feel welcome and very Comfortable! We are Thankful we found them!

I was nervous about going to a new practice after our original vet closed. However, after our first appointment at Burlington, I feel like my dog is in very good hands here. Especially, since she is a senior dog now. We did have to wait a while to see the doctor, but when he did come in, we were not rushed at all.Dr. Esherick is VERY thorough and answered all my questions. And there were a lot. He talked to me for over an hour! (We were the last appointment of the day.) You can tell they genuinely care about animals and are up to date on the latest education, medications and treatments. We're very happy with our new vet!

We have been with the BVC for years. Travel +45 minute to see the fantastic staff and amazing Dr.Esherick. We have German Shepard with allergies. Surprise surprise!The care, compassion, time, and overall visit is well worth the drive, and wait time.Will you have to wait some visits longer than others? yes. However, Dr.E will spend time with you as well teaching, examining, and loving up on your puppers.Would you bring yourself to a doctor that spends 5 minutes with you and rushes out?Just like with humans, best of the best doctors are a rare find and may take some time to see. That’s what we have in Dr.E. & the BVC the rare diamond.We’re not giving them up for the world!’ Thank you for always taking care of US and our Puppers!

I have been a client of Burlington Veterinarian Center for the past 17 years. At best I've had multiple German Shepherd Dogs and at times having 2 or 3 at a time. I cannot praise the wonderful practice, its Veterinarians Dr. Esherick and Dr.Trevino and the entire staff at the practice. From the receptionist, technicians and office management. With my last pup who passed away on Sunday the staff was known to us as Grizzy's Girls. Having to have an injection every 8 weeks the practical became Grizzly's extended family. Although Grizzly was not able to cross the Rainbow Bridge with his girls beside him, they have been so compassionate and caring during this difficult time. I am so happy to have had them to care for all my pets. I would like to thank each and everyone who have been a part of ours and our animals lives. ❤️

The staff at the Burlington Veterinary Center puts your pet first and is attuned to making your pet comfortable and feeling safe. The staff listens attentively to your questions and answers them thoughtfully. While extremely thorough in providing information about options, I don't feel pressure from the staff to pay for optional tests. I have only been bringing my pets to this practice for two years, but I already feel a connection with the staff. I appreciate that I see the same vet each time so she gets to know my cats and me. Everyone is helpful, pleasant, and knowledgeable.

We've loved Burlington Vet Center since the day we brought our puppy in for his first check up. The staff is wonderful and the prices are very fair and reasonable. We credit Dr. Esherick for our boy's easy-going personality as he gave us excellent insight and recommendations for new puppy owners that helped us focus on the right training. Dr. Trevino is amazing as well and provided fantastic care to Reggie, especially as he neared the end of his life. After 11 years our boy passed away somewhat quickly and unexpectedly, and the outpouring of compassion and support from the entire team has completely blown us away. There's nowhere else we'll ever bring our future pets.

The only reason I’ve provided any stars to this practice is due to their support staff who are friendly, understanding and extremely responsive. I personally found it impossible to work with Dr. Esherick in the treatment of my elderly dog due to his impersonal demeanor, rigidity in treatment options and expensive prices. It’s clear he cares for animals, but in our case he was fixated on a treatment guidelines instead of tailoring to our pets circumstances. He refused to offer any treatment until we conducted a series of invasive, and what I thought were dangerous tests (all of which were priced significantly higher than local facilities, I checked). We ended up moving our care to Litchfield Hills in Harwinton and they are incredible. Our dog has since passed, but I can’t help but think his life could have been prolonged if it weren’t for these months of wasted time trying to work with this provider.

This Vet is fantastic. Everyone I've talked to there is very kind and clearly cares for the animals they see. Also they have always called me to check in on our cats the next day after any visit, even just for regular checkups.

The Doctors and staff are very professional, thorough, caring, and friendly. We know that our dogs are getting the best care available, and refer everyone looking for a veterinarian to them.

Since my first visit over 20 years ago, the doctors and staff have always been kind, caring, and compassionate. My fur kids receive excellent care and I can't imagine going anywhere else.

Absolutely the best vet I have ever had. Not only is the facility clean & beautiful, the doctor and staff are just amazing. I brought a sick kitten and they took great care of her. I will continue to put my trust in Dr. Trevino. She is hands on, very inquisitive and doesnt do the "extra" unless she feels absolutely necessary. Hands down, the best vet in the area.

Dear Doctors and Staff at Burlington Veterinary Center,It has been a month since we have had to say goodbye to our dog “Coach” after 12 wonderful, spirited years! No doubt, all dog owners know the feeling coming home after a tough work day, but the tail greeting you is always wagging. The sensitivity, emotional and family like support, softened a tough time and difficult decision. We want to thank everyone at BVC. The compassion Dr. Trevino showed to our Coach and us during the end of his life’s journey was beyond expectations. Thank you all!Deeply Appreciative,Elaine & Marty Schupak

I don’t recommend this clinic because of Dr. Esherick’s arrogant behavior.I took our very sick cat in for an appointment. BVC ran several tests and when they told us to pick up our cat at 6:45pm we got there on time and waited till 7:30pm for Dr. Esherick with brief information.Our cat’s follow up appointment was scheduled for 10 days later and when I showed up on time Dr Esherick was 45 minutes late, complained about his computer not working, barked orders at his veterinary technicians and stormed out of the exam room without any explanation. I spent another hour waiting. Finally I left the room explained my disappointment at the front desk and left. I am a full time working mother always respecting other peoples time hoping they would do the same.Unfortunately I got the feeling that the employees around Dr. Esherick are walking on eggshells. I felt ignored and disrespected.

AMAZING first experience with one of my dogs! The staff was so friendly and made sure Laney was comfortable and treated her like their own! Pricing was SUPER reasonable and they made sure to thoroughly go over everything with me prior to leaving. 10/10 :)

Always a fabulous visit. The doctors and team are phenomenal. You would be hard pressed to find a veterinarian group that comes close to the care and concern this coordinated, super team provides for their patients and their patients owners.

The entire staff at BVC is exceptional! Caring for each patient as their own. When our 12 y/o lab was diagnosed with cancer in April both Dr. Esherick and Dr. Travino took the time needed at each visit to coach us through the devastating diagnosis. We can't thank Dr. Esherick and the entire team at BVC enough for the care and compassion they showed to us and our sweet Tessa over the past 12 years. We highly recommend Dr. Esherick and Dr. Travino and the entire BVC staff.

We always receive excellent and compassionate care for our pets at BVC. We have been bringing our pets to BVC for over 30 years. It is the only vet center we trust to diagnose and treat our pets. The staff is excellent, extremely knowledgeable, and very caring. I highly recommend them.

Absolutely amazing! I do not write reviews unless businesses make a true impression. They took time with my pup, they clearly explained their practices and , most of all, listened to me. I am so thankful to have them in my area!!!

I am confident you saved my pet’s life. Mindy was very sick. Your thorough examination together with years of experience and genuine caring gave her the tools to rebound to her “old self”.We are thankful she was seen and diagnosed so quickly. You are her hero

After a 35 year relationship with a previous vet practice I needed to find a new clinic. I pass by Burlington Veterinary daily and have noticed how very busy they are ALL THE TIME. My dog wasn’t feeling well so I needed make a decision and I called to make an appointment. I have found the clinic to be professional in their communications both on the phone and via email. We enjoyed our first visit this week and even during Covid-19 they had a well organized process for seeing patients. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and kept us well-informed regarding the care of our dog. They were compassionate and patient with Rosie in understanding the increased stress she was experiencing having to meet new faces without my presence. Cost of veterinary care is always a concern and I felt they were within the expected cost for our visit as well as upcoming procedures. Dr. Esherick has been excellent with the treatment of our dog and I feel he is offering a more conservative approach to her treatment plan which is appreciated. Thank you!
