Tropic Isle Aquarium

4 Pierce St

Kindness Animal Hospital

20 Linden Street
Waltham, MA 02452

Jessica L. writes: My two rat-buddies weren't feeling so hot, and it's tough to find a really good small animal doctor, so when I had recently moved and needed one I was a bit afraid of what I was going to find. To my relief, Dr. Hallicey at Kindness Animal Hospital…
