The Community Spay-Neuter Clinic in Topsham, Maine offers low cost spay and neuter services for low income pet owners.
The Community Spay-Neuter Clinic is a veterinary clinic that provides subsidized spay/neuter surgery for pet owners that cannot afford regular veterinary rates. We offer free transport for cats and small dogs from several towns in Maine. We accept vouchers from many area shelters and organizations, and often have grant programs to offer lower prices than usual to people who qualify for additional assistance. Our office staff are knowledgeable about the many resources for low cost spay/neuter around the state. Call us for information and help.
CSNC is supported by the Center for Wildlife Health Research, grants from organizations such as PetSmart Charities, the ASPCA, and HSUS, and generous donors.
Veterinarian and Executive Director Dr. Elizabeth Stone graduated from Princeton University in 1985 with a degree in Biology, and from Tufts University School of Veterinary Medicine in 2000. After graduation, she practiced small animal and emergency medicine at a 6-doctor private practice in Rhode Island, before moving to Minnesota for a Master's in Conservation Biology and a Veterinary Residency in Raptor Medicine at the University of Minnesota. There she also practiced small animal medicine for two years at a 4-doctor practice.In 2008 she started doing spay-neuter surgeries at Coastal Humane Society in Brunswick as a Relief Veterinarian. Community Spay-Neuter Clinic was borne of her interest in helping reduce pet overpopulation as well as protecting wildlife from unowned cats.
