Winslow Park Animal Hospital

Practicing modern veterinary medicine inside a beautifully preserved 1835 home — recognized by the Westport Historical Society as the Haight-Kemper House — Winslow Park Animal Hospital sits on Post Road East and takes its name from the open space and dog park next door. Founded in 2013 by local, experienced veterinarians and still independently owned, the practice makes clinical decisions based on what a particular pet needs rather than what a corporate directive dictates. AAHA accreditation backs the medicine, requiring evaluation against nearly 900 standards covering protocols, equipment, staff training, and facility safety, with regular re-inspection to keep it. Services for dogs and cats span wellness exams, vaccinations, dental care, spay and neuter, surgery, senior wellness, and microchipping, with allergy and dermatology work, cardiology, radiology, diagnostic imaging, and in-house laboratory testing handling the more complex cases. Laser therapy has been a standout for arthritic and aging patients, with clients describing dogs moving noticeably better after a treatment series. Open communication and trust are named as the foundation, and the difference is meant to register the moment a family walks through the door of that old house.
