Broad veterinary experience: our team handles routine exams, diagnostics, surgery and emergencies, so your pet can stay with one hospital.
Modern diagnostic equipment: we use ultrasound, echocardiography and digital imaging on site, which means fewer referrals and faster answers.
Care built around your pet: we plan treatment around your pet's age, health history and your household.
Wareham Animal Hospital offers these services to pets from Falmouth and the surrounding towns.
Wareham is a drive from Falmouth, so a little planning makes the visit easier. Call ahead to tell the team why you are coming and whether your pet has been seen elsewhere recently.
If you plan to take your pet on the Steamship Authority ferry from Woods Hole, schedule a checkup a few weeks before you leave. We can review vaccines, parasite prevention and any health concerns that could cause trouble on the trip.
Pets with heart or breathing problems deserve extra attention before travel. If your vet has mentioned a murmur or a cough, our echocardiography service can show how the heart is working.
Some problems cannot wait for a routine appointment. Trouble breathing, repeated vomiting, trauma, a suspected poisoning or sudden collapse all call for a prompt call to our team.
Phone us on the way so the staff can prepare for your arrival. You can read about what we handle on our emergency care page, and our urgent care page explains how it differs for problems that are serious but stable.
Do you see pets from Falmouth? Yes. Pet owners from Falmouth and Woods Hole bring dogs, cats and exotic pets to our Wareham hospital.
Can I get an ultrasound for my pet in one visit? We offer abdominal and thoracic ultrasound at the hospital. Your vet will tell you whether it is needed after an exam.
Should I call before coming in? Yes. A call lets the team plan for your pet, especially if the problem is urgent.
What should I bring to a first visit? Bring vaccine records, a medication list and notes on any symptoms.

The village of Woods Hole holds the Steamship Authority ferry terminal. Pets that travel by ferry should have vaccines and health records in order first, so a visit before the trip is a good idea. Woods Hole is also home to WHOI, the Marine Biological Laboratory and the Woodwell Climate Research Center. People who work at those places keep long, irregular days, and a vet who knows your routine can help you keep up with regular checkups.
