Bond Vet — Somerville brings modern, convenient vet care to the Somerville neighborhood of Boston, at Assembly Row. At Bond Vet, our mission is to strengthen the human-animal bond through better vet care. Founded by a female veterinarian, we’re a doctor-forward practice elevating the quality of vet care through improved design, technology and culture. Bond Vet is unique for offering both primary and urgent care for pets, which means our doctors can see your pet (typically same-day) for any symptoms that necessitate timely medical attention — think: a wound, limping, GI issues, persistent cough, a rash, a behavioral change or other non-life-threatening symptoms. It’s easy to make an appointment — you can walk in, book online or call ahead to book an appointment. We opened in 2019 and pioneered the veterinary urgent care space, pointing out a need for timely but not emergency care, especially when it comes to symptoms that could worsen with time. Our clinical team brings experience from both general practice and emergency medicine, enabling us to offer a comprehensive range of services, from annual wellness exams and spay/neuter to vaccines, mass removals, dental cleanings, and specialty surgery, all under one roof. We know pets and pet parents typically don’t enjoy vet visits, and our team is working to change that. A Bond Vet clinic is clean, welcoming and well-lit, with all-natural treats, sniffable spaces, toys, comfortable furniture, and hydration stations. Our caring and compassionate team is knowledgeable and thorough during the exam, providing best-in-class vet care for your dog or cat. We started Bond Vet because we believe vet care should be more convenient. To that end, our in-house tech team builds better veterinary tools (with input from our doctors) to do just that — hence our easy online booking (often same-day or next-day), electronic records and more. And in the event you can’t get to a Bond Vet clinic, we offer telehealth services, and we can even prescribe and deliver medication if our treatment plan calls for it. Because we know vet visits can feel overwhelming, we’re committed to offering our clients multiple options for treatment, next steps and diagnostic testing along with pricing, and we’ll never pressure you to spend or do more next steps than you’re comfortable doing. And after treatment, we’ll help you file pet insurance claims to help save you time and money. We started Bond Vet to modernize the vet care experience for pets and pet parents, and we hope you enjoy our approach. Bring your pet to our clinic for an exam, whether you need primary or urgent care. Bond Vet - Somerville is located at 320 Foley Street. Call, walk in or book online at bondvet.com.

- JJJames1 day ago1.0Their travel team's coordination has been an absolute nightmare, it blows my mind that they upsell this as a premium service when they have thrown us so many curveballs. We've been working with them on this for months to ensure proper lead time, but they have done their best to crash out repeatedly in the very last minute. For one, we've been hit with several cases of them not being able to find their own visit records and assuring us they didn't have them. My brother in christ, when you charge what you're charging, I can't be CTRL-F for you, you gotta hit those keys on your own. Later, as soon as the shutdown hit they emailed us claiming that the USDA-APHIS office was affected and couldn't handle the process. I had to find someone working there to verify that the coordinator was entirely talking nonsense as the office was deemed essential and no such thing had occurred. Last night we got an email from a new address with an odd domain notifying us that we weren't answering our phones, they couldn't leave messages, that our dog's vaccination (from them, courtesy of the travel team) was insufficient, and that we would likely need to postpone our travel. We have zero missed calls from them. Turns out they were right though. We immediately lost faith in them after that curve ball, reached out to another travel vet team, and got all of our documentation over. These vets confirmed that the Bond Travel team had not administered the correct vaccine, so now we need to get another and reschedule everything at both ends. They're nice in the office and kind to the pets, but If I could give a negative star to their travel coordinator I would. You'll see a couple other folks working with their travel coordinator said the same.

- LFLaryssa FelicianoSep 17, 20255.0When my sister newly moved to the area and needed a vet for a more urgent situation with her cat (she had already been to the ER and needed to follow up with a primary care vet). No veterinarian in the area would take her as a new patient. It was super stressful making phone call after phone call. Then we found Bond vet, and they had a same day appointment. They were so kind and welcoming. I now take my cat to Bond and both my sister and I have kept Bond as our primary vet. They are professional, knowledgeable, responsive, and kind. Dr. Amber Shamburger has been so wonderful. I highly recommend Bond vet!
- BCBrenna CalderaraSep 10, 20255.0I've been bringing my pup to Bond vet since the Somerville location opened and I have always had a lovely experience. My dog is very anxious about the vet and leash reactive and not having to wait in a waiting room full of dogs is honestly one of the best things about Bond. We are always brought right into the room and never have to wait more than a few minutes for the vet to see her. Whether it's a annual wellness check or an illness I never have to wait for an appointment and always feel my dog is getting the best care. I would highly recommend the Somerville Bond Vet to any dog owners who treat their pets like children 😂
- EREzra RosarioSep 10, 20255.0Such an amazingly sweet team and were immediately prepared to help how they can. Above and beyond communication and transparency and I’d 100% recommend my fellow pet parents to come here.
