  I had been nervous about finding a vet after bad experiences with our dogs as a child and let me tell you, Dr Mixon is a wonderful vet, and has a wonderful staff. They really know there stuff and care for the animals. I have brought my one year old dog here since we got her as a puppy. My dog had what we thought were allergies for a good while and Dr Mixon diagnosed and treated her for mange. She is doing so great! They also did her spay, they burried her stitches so she didnt even need a cone which was fantastic! Very reasonably priced!!! The boarding kennel is great as well, animals are very well cared for!

  I sued Dr. Mixon and won. OVERDOSED my healthy indoor long hair beautiful feline friend/kid named Dolly on 1.28.2016. Appt for teeth cleaning at 8am. Got her handed to me with her eyes open, blood on her face and dead (DOLLY had a clean bill of health after going through blood, urine analysis and rabbie shot by this office 2 weeks prior). DOCUMENTS from Dr. MIXON himself wrote Dolly died due to "Human Error" during a routine teeth cleaning. I obtained immediately after Dolly's death her medical records and Dr. Mixon's Incident report. Includes the monitor (Dolly vitals) reading during the procedure. Two (2) other Vet's said it was Dr. Mixon's and staffs faultand uncovered the fact Dr. Mixon was not wearing stethoscopes himself and left vet tech (K.H) alone..plus later rec'd UConn's preliminary and final necropsy report in this case proving what I stated from Dr. MIXON himself, plus other very disturbing information. PLUS Dr. Mixon admitted to me he did not do a few other things he promised (be present 100% and hydrate Dolly before procedure). 8am 1.28.16 when I dropped Dolly off for a routine teeth cleaning he promised me to my face "she will be just fine"..2 hours later I was given Dolly in her favorite blanket with her eyes still open, bloody face, and lifeless.

  I found Dr. Mixon and all of his staff to be very friendly, kind, knowledgeable, and helpful at all times. Whether I'm bringing in a patient that's easy or difficult to handle, they have the skills needed to get the animal examined, get blood, etc. Dr. Mixon is very thorough and careful, and leaves no stone unturned to find an answer. They keep the office clean. I've brought in dogs and cats. I recommend them.

  I have been a client at Newtown Veterinary Center for over 8 years. During this time, Dr. Mixon has taken exceptional care of my pets including a cat, 2 dogs and a guinea pig.
  I am always greeted with a smile, respect and a genuine care for my animals and any concerns that I may have, nor have I ever been rejected if needing to get in right away.
  When leaving my pets for a procedure, I have nothing but confidence in the abilities of Dr. Mixon as a veterinarian and I know that he will care for my animals as if they were his own.
  I have entrusted Dr. Mixon and his staff with the care of my pets for many years and I will continue to do so and without hesitation, I would recommend Newtown Veterinary Center/Dr. Mixon
  To family and friends.

  Dr Mixon and his staff have taken care of our cats for 3 years. They have always been caring and compassionate. I have recommended this practice and will continue to do so.

YOU BROKE MANY HEARTS "Newtown Veterinary Center". It took me 3 months before I could emotionally write this due to how much this GROSS NEGLIENCE look a piece of my life, changed my timeline in new business, and broke my heart, family & friends. More info to come.

  I felt the Dr was very honest. He gave me options for my cat with a bad heart murmur but understood when I did not send him to a specialist for thousands of dollars. He told me he just wanted me to know what choices I had. I think he's a good vet.
  That being said- there is someone on his staff that is awful and uninformed! I went to adopt a dog from a rescue and they were told that my dog was not current on vaccines, which was not true! The bordatella (an optional shot) that dog had a bad allergic reaction to had lapsed. We didn't want to board her or give it to her again if it wasn't necessary. The rescue group called again and was told all the mandatory shots were up to date. Only the optional shot had lapsed. What is wrong with this vet's staff? Don't they want more patients?
