About Us
Dr. Douglas K. DePiero is a native of Beverly, Massachusetts. He began his career as an engineer, first for NASA, and then in the disk processing industry in Silicon Valley. But his love for animals eventually won out - he later received his Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Tufts University in 1999. Dr. DePiero and his wife, Tina, combined their medical, technical, and entrepreneurial expertise, to open the doors of Northeast Veterinary Hospital in September 2001. Dr. Depiero also holds a BS and an MS in Mechanical Engineering from Boston University. He lives with his wife, two daughters, and son, in Swampscott along with their 2 dogs, 3 cats, fish and pet hermit crabs.
Dr. Buzz Newman joined the staff at Northeast Veterinary Hospital in March 2008. He is a Connecticut native and received his Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from Colorado State University in 1977. His primary interest is in small animal medicine and surgery and he has a special fondness for our feline friends. Dr. Newman has over 30 plus years experience in practicing general medicine, and possesses extensive surgical and critical care emergency skills. For much of his career he has successfully owned and operated an emergency small animal hospital and most recently an emergency feline only hospital. He lives in Medford, MA with his wife and two cats Winston and Maxwell.
At Northeast Veterinary we strive to provide not only for the physical needs of pets, but for their emotional comfort as well. Appointments are scheduled so that adequate time is given, not only for proper diagnosis and treatment, but so that we may get to know your pet personally.
At Northeast Veterinary Hospital we are truly committed to the health and well-being of our companion animal friends. We understand the unique and special bond humans have with their pets and know, that for many of us, these relationships can be just as strong and complex as our human relationships.
All of our compassionate staff members are focused on providing professional and personalized care to meet you and your pet's specific needs. We also are involved in the community by providing our expert services and care at minimal cost working with local area shelters. We are an AAHA affiliated hospital and we strive to adhere to their standards.
We would like to extend our personal invitation to anyone who would like to meet our staff and tour our facility! Simply call and ask to schedule an introductory visit. We look forward to meeting you and to providing your pet with the best quality medical care!
