Ocean State Veterinary Specialists was founded by a husband and wife team who had a vision to create a top-flight referral and emergency clinic capable of providing university-level care right here in Rhode Island.
Our staff of 200+ employees is made up of exceptional doctors, nurses and support staff who are not only great at their job but who are also genuine animal lovers.
