About Us
At Dighton Veterinary Hospital, we are dedicated to providing the highest standard of veterinary care to ensure your companion lives a long and healthy life. Our mission is to treat your pets as if they were one of our own, with compassion and dignity. Since 2002, we have been committed to delivering high-quality care to pets in our community.
Our team is led by Dr. Meg Saxon, a veterinarian born and raised in the neighboring town of Rehoboth, MA. Dr. Saxon graduated from the Dighton-Rehoboth Regional High School in 1991 and went on to earn her Bachelor's degree from Wheaton College in Norton, MA. She then pursued her doctorate in veterinary medicine from the Atlantic Veterinary College in PEI, Canada. Her dedication to her profession is matched by her sister, Amy, who has been with us for over twenty years and serves as our Office Manager.
We offer a wide range of services designed to keep your pet in the best possible health. Our services include state-of-the-art laboratory diagnostics, preventative care, dental care, surgical services, microchipping, vaccinations, spay and neuter procedures, and parasite prevention and control. Regular wellness exams are a crucial aspect of our preventative healthcare program. These comprehensive examinations allow us to detect any potential health issues early, even before your pet displays noticeable symptoms. We assess your pet's weight, heart and lung function, skin and coat health, and overall physical condition. We also discuss your pet's nutrition, exercise habits, and any behavioral concerns you might have.
At Dighton Veterinary Hospital, we believe in creating personalized plans for each pet's preventive care. Our veterinarians work closely with you to ensure that your pet receives the appropriate and timely care for any emerging health issues. We strive to build strong relationships with our clients and patients, treating everyone with dignity and respect. Our commitment to quality care and compassionate service has earned us a reputation as a trusted and reliable veterinary hospital in the community.
We are proud to have been serving pets and their families for over two decades. Our team is passionate about providing the best possible care for your beloved pets, and we look forward to continuing this tradition of excellence in the years to come.
