Words from Dr. Magnuson

Growing up on a farm in Minnesota has given me a strong sense of family and the knowledge that it takes a village to reach a common goal. My passion has always been taking care of animals, ever since I was 4 years old. I dreamed of being a veterinarian and owning my own practice. When the veterinarian came to our farm, I would rush out to help him and pray that he would let me stay and watch. Oftentimes, animals would die because vaccines did not exist to protect against many infectious diseases. This was a defining moment for me.

After graduating college, I worked in vaccine development and created those vaccines to save animals. From there, I went on to graduate school to study genetics. Soon after, I attended and graduated veterinary school. I moved to New Hampshire to complete an internship, where I met my husband and then launched a house call practice while we raised two beautiful daughters together. I launched Canobie Lake Veterinary Hospital at the same time my third daughter was born. It then all came together for me; I was living my dream and fulfilling my life’s passion!

Today, we have three full-service hospitals across southern New Hampshire, all of which share the same standards of care and philosophy. I encourage you to learn about us here on our website, our Facebook page, and by stopping by for a tour and to say hello. Our motto is “Trust Our Family with Your Family,” and we look forward to seeing you soon!

Very nice staff and Vet. Was very patient and gentle with our Amazon and took her time with us.

Thanks for having Flick for tea. He had a very nice time.

Greenland Vet Hospital is amazing. I always leave feeling like they treated my dog with the best care. They always take the time to listen to me and are great with an anxious and scared pup!

- Katie
Greenland Vet was excellent with getting me in quickly and having extended hours that work around my schedule. They were excellent to me and my cat, great at listening and explaining what they thought was going on. I was a little surprised with how expensive the visit was though.

- Laura C.
My cat had a very sore paw, and they got him right him, and diagnosed the issue and provided a reasonable action plan. Very friendly, accommodating, no waiting. Great place!

- Penny H.
We are so thankful to Dr. Hale and everyone at Greenland vet. We were just in for a routine visit for my lovely old dog, which at his age can be less than routine. Everyone was so nice and Dr. Hale took the time to personally call and explain his lab results. Can’t recommend enough!

- Shannon G.
Everyone was efficient, knowledgeable, and helpful. They did everything possible to help my cat. She is much better and getting ready for surgery on Tuesday. I will follow up on her recovery and thank you to everyone who made her feel better.

- Judy C.
Sig and I are always pleased with our visits. The personnel are always kind, considerate, well informed and professional.

I was very happy with the professional service regarding my companion of ten years Benny my little Connier Parrot. Life without him would be painful. Benny’s broken leg is well on the way of being healed. Thank Guys so much.

We took our 16 year old Maine coon in to be checked out a few weeks ago and found out he had cancer then had to bring him back about a week later to have him put to sleep and everyone here was so caring and sweet and really helped us get through a horrible time. I will never take my other cats anywhere else.

- Lindsay G.
You guys are the most caring vet practice. We are always impressed with your care and concern.

- Danielle
The staff is just great, so helpful and accommodating! Dr.Giusto was fantastic. I usually have Dr. Hale but had Dr. Giusto as Dr. Hale was off that day. I love Dr. Hale and was a bit reluctant to have another doctor but I am so glad I did. It s good to know that they are both wonderful!

- Joann
Bowie gets his nails clipped regularly at the office. The staff is very good and quick in caring for him. It s a stress free environment.

- Judi
Since the 1980 s I have taken my my pets to different Vets, but Greenland Vet staff are the most caring, helpful, sincere people I have ever met. I wouldn t go to any other office.
Sincerely,

- Shirley B.
Dr. Hale always takes the time to answer my questions no matter how silly or off they may be. She is extremely knowledgeable about our large breed sighthound and never hesitates to share her knowledge with us and at the same time is very open to any ideas about care we bring her way. Thanks Dr. Hale for everything you do for us and our furry family members!

- Tanya N.
Had a good first visit with my dog. He can be challenging/noisy and frightened, but the vet used a nice soothing voice talking to him. He even gave her a kiss. Looking forward to getting his teeth cleaned and checked out to prolong his life.

- Amy B.
I so appreciated the warm reception I received at the hospital. Since I have pet rats, not everyone is open to treating them or knowledgeable of their care. Thank you for assuring me I have a great place to bring them!

- Mary
We are very happy to have been referred to this veterinary hospital. Always so nice and great handling our four/legged family.

I LOVE Greenland Veterinarian Hospital almost as much as my furry babies!! They are OUTSTANDING, knowledgeable, caring, friendly, accommodating, sweet, loving, professional, personable AND every single person that is a member of that family LOVES and really really cares about not only their patients but the whole family! I just can’t say enough great things about them!!!

- Lori H.
I loved how invested the whole staff was in my little lady! The vet answered all my questions with no rushing through the appointment, and they followed up within 24 hours to make sure she was feeling better. This will be my vet as long as I m in the area.

- Morgan

- Cheryl L.
I like that they are personal with my pet, like they really care about it.

- Luis
I was so happy that you guys were able to see my sick dog asap. I was nervous having just moved to the area and needing a veterinarian in a bind. I was treated to well by all of the staff I could not have found a better vet !

- Kimberly
Everyone was super friendly, up front and honest about pricing and treatments, and took very good care of us and our kitty. Thank you all so much. When I lived in Derry NH, I used Canobie Lake Veterinary Hospital for my rats and had the same amazing experience. Thank you all so much!

- Mariah
I felt bad we were late for the appointment but the staff was very understanding.

- Sonia
Extremely caring and knowledgeable. Continuity of care from one veterinarian to another and amongst the vet techs is outstanding. In other words everyone is equally competent.

- Jean
Even after my appointment, the kind people that work here followed up with e mails and responded to any and all of my questions in a professional and timely manner. I am very impressed.
