Dedicated to the Ones You Love

“Compassion, Respect, Client Communication, and Family Life are important to me and how I run my clinic.” – Dr Suzanne Scott

Dr Suzanne Scott's Story

Hello, My name is Dr. Suzanne Scott, I'm a veterinarian and owner at Slatersville Vet. I always wanted to own my own practice, in fact, since I was a young child we played "Doctor" growing up, I was always the vet and my friends were the receptionists/nurses. I graduated from Chatham High School in New Jersey, then worked at a clinic where one of the veterinarians advised me to go into banking and Wall Street, and pursue a more "profitable" profession (since I lived so close to NYC), this just fueled my desire to put my love of animals before my pursuit of money. I then went to undergrad at UVA since I refused to apply to any ivy league. I then went to Cornell Vet School and got married and moved to RI where my husband grew up. He was deployed to Iraq during my 4th year in vet school.

Testimonials from my Clients

Steve Cole - August 2023

We feel very confident that Dr. Scott and her team are the very best choice to help us manage Allie’s condition

"

We first brought our four cats to Slaterville veterinary clinic in April of 2022.  It is possible, that Pete and Callie were the first patients that the new clinic saw.  From the first interactions with the staff, it was clear that this was a special place.  During the visit, Dr. Scott and her staff spent time with us answering all questions that we had about our cats.  At each appointment, they all made us feel like we were the most important patient that they would see that day.  It was extremely refreshing to not feel rushed during our visit.  The rest of the cat crew made their way to the office during the first few months that Slatersville was open.  In August of 2022, we added an English Cream Golden Retriever to the family.  Our new addition made us quickly realize what a truly special place Slaterville Animal Clinic was for our family.  On Allie’s initial visit Dr. Scott diagnosed Allie with an issue that would require her to see a specialist in the future.  The team at Slatersville arranged for us to visit a specialist.  After visiting the specialist, we had a plan of attack to deal with Allie’s condition.  Unfortunately, prior to Allie’s surgery she got very sick due to complications from her existing issue.  I messaged Dr. Scott about what was going on and she scheduled me for an appointment first thing the next morning.  Keep in mind that it was a Holiday and Monday morning.  We spent several hours with the staff and Dr. Scott trying to diagnose what was going on with Allie.  We then went to an emergency animal hospital to get an ultrasound.  While at the hospital, the issue seemed to pass.  The next morning, I called Dr Scott back and I stated that I was still nervous about Allie and didn’t think she was getting better.  She told me to bring her in so she could recheck her.  They changed her meds and she was on her way to recovery. 

 

Dr. Scott after making several calls was able to find a specialist to perform her surgery.  Prior to the surgery, they wanted to perform an Ultrasound to see if there was anything that they needed to be concerned about during the surgery.  During the Ultrasound, they noticed that Allie had developed another issue that would make the surgery even more challenging.  You would have thought at that point we may have felt defeated that such a young puppy was so sick, but Dr. Scott didn’t give up.  She found an animal hospital in Boston to do Allie’s surgery.  During the consultation at the Boston animal hospital, they told me how fortunate we are to have a veterinarian like Dr. Scott.   She stated that Dr. Scott was a very strong advocate for Allie and she would not take no for an answer.  We could not have been more pleased with the hospital who also had great things to say about the care that Allie has received from Slatersville.  With the surgery behind us, we feel very confident that Dr. Scott and her team are the very best choice to help us manage Allie’s condition.

Mark and Mary Stamp - October 2021

I love her straight talk about caring for and raising dogs

"We first met when taking our pup Sadie, a boxer mix about age 5 to "Dr. Suzanne" around 2004. Then along came my 8-week-old puppy Holly, a Shepard mix in 2005. Suzanne has been there for them both through wellness visits, injuries and illness with her knowledge and professionalism. I love her straight talk about caring for and raising dogs. The caring and honesty she shows at the end of life for them both meant so much to my husband and me at such a difficult time and tells me a lot about her as a person. All while reassuring us that we gave them a good long life. We now have Mr. Finnegan, a 7-month-old Sheltie and we look forward to many years of his care together. - Good luck Dr Suzanne in your new adventure. You deserve only the best!"

Suzanne is my go-to vet!

"For the past 5 years, Dr. Suzanne has been my go-to vet. She is friendly, companionate, and knowledgeable. My dog suffers from severe allergies, and she has created a food/medication routine that allows him to live a normal life."

Zeke - May 2021

Dr. Suzanne is a valuable ally to any pet owner!

"For the past 13+ years, Dr. Suzanne has been my veterinarian. She has tended to all my dog's care needs to the unfortunate unscheduled visit. Her knowledge and compassion have put me at ease, especially in areas where I may have been uncertain as to what treatment options would suit my best friend and I. Dr. Suzanne is a valuable ally to any pet owner"

Banjo loves Dr. Suzanne!

Banjo, my golden retriever, is the first dog I've owned. Being a dog mom can be an intimidating commitment and responsibility, but this dog-owning adventure is far less stressful with Dr. Suzanne leading the way. Of course, our routine visits are smooth and thorough, but what I appreciate most is her availability and expertise to answer my panicked messages like, 'My dog just swallowed a sock', 'Does this red spot look normal?', 'Is this amount of ear wax concerning?, 'Why does my dog suddenly have horrendous breath?. Her prompt replies instantly put me at ease because she either gives me helpful tips or recommends a visit to the office. Banjo loves Dr. Suzanne.  It's taken some time, but he has finally forgiven her for removing his testicles."

Patrick Maguire J - March 2022

Dr. Suzanne is not only our veterinarian but also our friend.!

"We are very fortunate to meet Dr. Suzanne and have her care for and love our pets for the past 12yrs. She was recommended to us at a time in our lives when Mystic (our dog) was gravely ill and needed care and we felt Mystic was not getting the care she deserved. Going to see Dr. Suzanne for the first time we were unsure how our precious dog was going to be treated. Dr. Suzanne treated our dog just as that, precious. She showed the utmost kindness, genuine love, and affection for Mystic and our family. Dr. Suzanne is not only our veterinarian but also our friend. We feel truly blessed to have her in our lives and care for our other four-legged family members.  She really is one in a million."
