The Integrity
difference:
Combining core values with exceptional, personalized, specialty veterinary care.
At Integrity Veterinary Center
Our medical team treats each pet as more than just a patient–they are unique individuals with their own personalities, needs, and stories. That’s why our medical team takes the time to get to know each pet beyond their diagnosis. Whether it’s a specialty appointment or an urgent care visit, we look at the whole pet, considering not only their medical conditions but also their behavior, lifestyle, and emotional well-being.
We approach every case with compassion, curiosity, and respect, working closely with our clients to create personalized care plans that truly support the health and happiness of their companions. Our goal is to provide thoughtful, comprehensive care that reflects the deep bond you share with your pet, because to us, they are your family.

We brought our dog Willow here for an appointment for what we thought was something minor but turned out to be something more. From making the appointment to being seen, they were quick and attentive. Very friendly and helpful staff. Our vet was knowledgeable & answered all my questions and made sure I felt confident about my pet's care plan. There were no surprises with the cost as they tell you up front before. I would highly recommend as they made me feel comfortable about the care she receiving from a compassionate staff.

Great experience getting same day urgent care for our new puppy. Everyone was so kind and provided reassurance and great care during a stressful experience. Prices were also very reasonable for the care received! He is back to his manic puppy self and we are so happy 😀

This place is really good, very respectful folks that understand animals, love and care for them and have big hearts. Took my dog here and they did a really good job assessing her issues. May everyone here have a wonderful day and god bless.

They took great care of my cat when he needed urgent care. Very kind, compassionate, and pricing was extremely reasonable - ended up only charging me for the exam when the issue was more minor than anticipated. I'm very grateful!

Staff are kind, clear, and ensure your understanding of what’s happening for your animal so you can make informed decisions. When possible they give you a range of options with transparency on costs.

I had an excellent experience with Integrity recently. My Golden had developed a hotspot and my regular vet couldn't see her for urgent care. The hotspot worsened over the weekend and by Sunday afternoon I was looking for another solution. My friend told me about Integrity and I called at 4:25. They saw us at 5:00 and were compassionate, caring, clear, and professional. My dog immediately felt and looked better and is continuing to heal beautifully. I won't hesitate to use them again. Thank you, Dr. Stuart and staff!

I took my kitty Portia to Integrity for what was initially meant to be the start of treatment for lymphoma. Both the doctor and oncologist I spoke with (I'm so sorry I can't recall their names - it was a whirlwind of a day) were kind, honest, realistic, and empathetic. Unfortunately, I did have to put her to sleep the same day but again, the staff were kind, patient, and honest; they walked me through the process and were kind enough to make sure my requests of whiskers, fur, and clay paw prints were noted, and didn't rush me at... read more

Dr Loftus and his team have been an incredible resource in diagnosing and treating my cats SCL. Everyone here is so caring and really takes their time to explain each and every option, and Dr. Loftus is always great with backing up his findings with the most up to date research. I am so grateful Duke has such a compassionate group rooting him on. Thank you all for everything you do!

I cannot express enough gratitude for this clinic. They were extremely kind and loving towards to not only our dog Daisy, but to me and my boyfriend. As someone who is an anxious dog parent, I appreciate how thorough the vet was with her care and how open they were about the cost of everything. I am forever grateful for the care we received here and cannot recommend this clinic enough. Thank you to each and every employee, you guys are amazing!

Plan Your Visit
We are excited to see you and your pet for your appointment! Here is some information to help make your appointment day go as smoothly as possible.
1
Directions and Parking: IVC is located at 518 Pleasant St in Northampton, MA. As you face the building, the hospital entrance is on the left side. Please feel free to park in one of the angled parking spots between IVC and the Shell station, or in the additional parking around the back of the Shell station.
2
Checking In: Our waiting room is small and can quickly get busy. Therefore, we ask that you call us (413-614-0039) when you arrive to check in. One of our nurses will first take your pet’s medical history, and then ask you to come inside to one of our consultation rooms.
3
During Your Appointment: Once the appointment begins, one of our nurses will weigh your pet, and measure/record their vital parameters. Once your pet’s doctor performs a physical examination, they will meet with you to discuss their findings and next steps in the appointment. Together, you will build a diagnostic and treatment plan for your pet. Please make sure you ask any questions that you have throughout this process. We are here to provide as much information as possible about your pet’s condition and medical care!
