Veterinarians near Great Neck, NY

“Dr. Ryan went above and beyond in communicating with us during the end of our dogs life. We explored every option patiently and his caring nature separates him from other vets we’ve seen. He is compassionate and genuine at every turn and surpassed all of our expectations when we found him. Our dog has passed, but the memory of the care and love he got at the end will remain with us forever. Thank you Dr. Ryan.”

“If you need care for your rabbit, guinea pig, bird, or other small animal, look no further. Dr. Lee and the team at LIBEVC are the absolute best, and can answer all your questions regarding the illness, treatment, care and recovery of your pet.”

“When we walked into Animal Baldwin Hospital, it felt like stepping into a place where they already knew our hearts. From the front desk to every interaction in between, the staff was genuinely warm, welcoming, and deeply caring. You can feel that they truly want to help you and your pet in every way possible.

Dr. Saslou didn’t just treat our 14-year-old Yorkie, Gizmo he treated him like he was his own. When we first brought Gizmo in, he wasn’t doing well at all. Dr. Saslou took the time to educate us, guide us, and create a thoughtful plan that felt personal, not rushed or cookie-cutter. We followed his suggestions closely, and one month later at our follow-up, Gizmo was all in the green thriving, full of life, and surrounded by positivity.

This place is the opposite of a factory. It’s heart, soul, and real connection. My mom brings her cat here, my nephew brings his pets here, and now Dr. Saslou and the team are officially our family’s doctor. Gizmo will never forget them and neither will we. We will see you for the next check up!
If you want your pet treated like family, this is where you go.”

“Wonderful care. I had been to four other vets for my senior dog’s skin condition and none were able to help. I won’t take my pets to anyone else but GCVC!! Highly recommend and am very grateful for their help.”

“What a phenomenal experience at this amazing clinic! Between the staff and Dr. Branding, everyone was amazing. I came in for the first time with a stray cat, that had been outside on her own with no help in sight. I made her an appointment first thing in the morning, took her in, got all of her shots and bloodwork, and made a spaying appointment. From start to finish the ladies in this office couldn't have been better! I have the utmost confidence that my new little one will receive the best care possible. A HUGE THANK YOU, to the ladies in this clinic who've been so kind to both myself and little Winter. Thank You a million times over!”

“**Update reply on the bottom.

I cannot recommend Dr. Penyy at The Cat Doctor highly enough! My 16-year-old Chinchilla Persian, Apple, recently had surgery, and the care we received was absolutely world-class.

What truly sets Dr. Penyy apart is her incredible heart and selflessness. I’ve seen her kneeling on the floor for a long time just to carefully remove Apple’s sutures one by one, showing zero ego. She once even accidentally bumped her head because she was focusing so intensely on examining him, yet her only concern was making sure we weren’t worried! She genuinely puts the well-being of the cats above everything else.

Despite her busy schedule, she is always responsive—answering questions late at night or on weekends with professional guidance. She remembers every detail of Apple’s health stats, which gives me so much peace of mind.

As an artist, Apple is my muse, and I picked up watercolor specifically to capture the beauty of cats. I was so moved by Dr. Penyy’s dedication that I painted a miniature watercolor of her caring for Apple. When I gave it to her, she was so surprised and called it 'so artistic'—her reaction meant the world to me.

My husband and I feel so lucky to have found such an amazing, compassionate doctor in our corner. Thank you, Dr. Penyy, for everything you do for the Apple of our eye, Apple! ??❤️

Update:
Thank you so much to the owner for such a lovely and moving reply! I still get teary-eyed every time I think about everything Dr. Penyy has done for our Apple. Her selfless dedication and compassion truly touched our hearts.

Also, a huge shout out to the entire team at The Cat Doctor for everything you do for all the fur babies! Please make sure Dr. Penyy takes some time to rest—her health and well-being are just as important as our fur babies'! ❤️?”

“I miss Dr.B we use to go here but unfortunately i had stopped due to him only being there 3 days a week and not every month it was hard I need a vet who is more available for my baby. But he was a great Docor I do call time to time with concerns and questions because i do still only trust him compared to these other vets I will be going back just he’s so busy he has the longest wait times and my boy can’t wait with other dogs unfortunately. But i will be seeing him soon and he is amazing with understanding the animals and the owners.”

“My dogs have been seeing Dr. Julie Andino for over 17 years. We followed her from another vet’s office. Besides being an excellent veterinarian, she is very caring and loves the pets she cares for. She recently saw us through a tough time when we had to make the terrible decision to put our dogs down due to old age and illness. She was supportive and compassionate throughout this difficult time for our family. She cried with us. I am happy to say that we are back with our new dog, Mabel. The staff at VCG-Glen Oaks is kind and friendly. The office is always immaculate. All calls are responded to quickly. I highly recommend VCG-Glen Oaks.”

“These are truly some of the kindest and most caring people you’ll ever meet! Dr. Sandra Popa came highly recommended by a friend, and I now understand why. Despite being fully booked for the day, they managed to squeeze us in the same day (at 5pm!) when my grandma’s senior cat started straining in the litter box and peeing a little blood. The front desk here was so compassionate and accommodating - they understood it was urgent, while all other vets told us the earliest they could get us in was the next morning.

Dr. Popa was beyond amazing and patient. She took her time to ask questions, go over the medical history, and explain everything clearly without ever rushing. You can just tell she loves animals and puts her heart into her work. Her compassion and calm demeanor instantly put me at ease.

Their prices are also very fair, which says a lot about their values. All other places I called wanted to charge an astronomical amount. You can tell they really care about helping pets more than anything else. I’m so grateful we found Dr. Popa and her wonderful team. They truly go above and beyond, and we’ll be clients for life!!”

“I never write reviews but this one is necessary! Dr. Pozo is truly a gem, she’s so warm and gracious and puts you right at ease! She squeezed me in to see my two newly adopted cats when I found out one of them was given to me sick. She examined them both and prescribed medicine, taking the time to teach me how to administer and tips on how to keep the cats calm and how to prevent myself from getting scratched! She has since been very kind to answer all my follow up worry some questions and has also taken care of my dog. If you’ve been searching for a vet, I highly recommend you put your trust in Dr. Pozo!”

“We can’t say enough wonderful things about this veterinary team! From the moment we walk in, we’re always greeted with kindness, care, and genuine compassion.
**Special thanks to Dr. Karen Liss** for her outstanding care, patience, and dedication. She truly goes above and beyond, and it shows in every visit. Our Oliver absolutely loves her—and that says everything!
We’re so thankful for the love and attention Oliver receives and for treating him like family. Highly recommend this amazing practice! ??

“I Took My Blue Eye Pug; Skye Bleu To get Her Nails Cut and The Dr. Reminded Me That She Needed Her Updated Shots..Rabie Shot..Heart Worm Chewys..and Lime Disease Treatment Too...All Woth going There instead of a Groomer...I am Verry Happy Bring My Looved One There...?????”

“Although it’s a small practice, they really do make sure to see my pets when they are needed. Everyone really seems like they are happy to be a part of the team and it feels like they truly want to be a partner with me as a pet parent.”

“We found Dr. Solomon last summer. Our first visit was for our cat, Loki, to be neutered. I was impressed with how much time Doctor Solomon took with us to explain everything during the consultation. Much different atmosphere than my previous vet. Everything also went great with the neutering and the cost was very affordable. Our second visit was with my senior dog, who after having a couple bad experiences at the previous vet was a little skittish of the vet and they were no longer even able to get blood work from her without her whining and crying. This is a dog that doesn’t typically cry over anything. Dr. Solomon took this into consideration, shaved the area, used calming petting and other techniques to keep her calm and was able to get blood. All the vet techs at the office genuinely love animals and you can tell they love their job. We have recently had some health scares with Loki and Dr. Solomon has been so good at explaining everything and giving us options. He’s always also given multiple options for a treatment when possible in case cost is a factor. His front desk staff is very professional and friendly. I am so glad that we found Bronx County animal Hospital. We plan on continuing bringing our present and future furry children to him!”

“- Excellent doctors (recommend Dr. Bassman), excellent techs, excellent front office staff, excellent management. No exceptions, which is rare.
- Facility is kept immaculate without feeling sterile.
- Very transparent pricing.
- Their “Fear Free” handling can really make a difference, especially for older or vulnerable cats that can actually get sicker from stress.
- Management and staff have always been responsive to even minor feedback.
- Handling of insurance is seamless. Never have to even think about it.

After 5+ years of having 3 cats at Heart of Chelsea (2 routine/healthy cats, one who went through an uncommon illness) we couldn’t be happier and have never been disappointed.

It’s a 25 minute trip for us, but easily worth it.

If you want to keep a healthy pet healthy, or have excellent, expert care for an aging or ill pet, I highly recommend Heart of Chelsea.

Thanks Carlos, Rebecca, Dr. Bassman & Adrianna!”

“Dr. Wallach is truly the vet everyone needs. He takes his time and speaks to you before and after seeing your pet and goes over diagnosis and prognosis in so much detail. I've transferred care from another vet in the area and have never looked back since! My dog Coco was in pain due to unknown causes and Dr. Wallach has been wonderful. He also really wants to make sure your pet is on the way to recovery and does a great job checking in on your pet after you're done! Thank you Dr. Wallach and Sharon at University Hospital.”

“Honestly, this place is lovely. I have been to many vets over the years and I have never felt as safe as I do here. They do not shame- my cat is overweight and they remained focused on a plan, not on making me feel like a bad pet parent. Whats even crazier is that my cats do not fear the carrier. While they will cry in the car once they are in the vet office they are calm. They come home relaxed. I think about all the trauma my other cats had at previous vets and it honestly breaks my heart knowing this was an option the whole time. VCG are profoundly lovely and caring people.”

“Recently found them thanks to recommendations from other bunny owners. They have taken good care of our bunny so far and with very good follow up. Based on my experiences with other vetinary offices, this place is much better and would highly recommend.”

“I’m writing to express my heartfelt appreciation for the exceptional veterinary care my dog Pablo received from the team at Garden City Park Animal Hospital (GCPH). During a tough time, your compassionate, professional, and dedicated team made a world of difference for both Pablo and our family.

From the moment Pablo arrived, every member of your staff treated us with kindness and respect. Your veterinarians and technicians were not only highly skilled but also incredibly empathetic. They explained all the options clearly and patiently, and Pablo’s comfort was always their top priority. It was clear that each staff member genuinely cared for Pablo’s physical and emotional well-being—and ours too.

From Dina at the front desk, who generously gave us her personal dog ramp, to the entire staff who ensured Pablo’s pain was minimized and his dignity preserved, the kindness and support you provided during this time was truly comforting and empowering.

Your GCPH team truly embodies the very best of your organization’s values and mission. On behalf of Pablo and our family, we would like to express our sincere thanks to the veterinarians, technicians, and all the staff members who cared for Pablo with such skill and heart. We will always remember their compassion.

Thank you for fostering such a remarkable team. Their work has left a lasting, positive impression on us, and we are forever grateful.”

“Best place to take you're pets. Wouldn't trust anyone else. The Doctors and staff are amazing. Jessica and Mike are always kind and willing to help me with whatever I need. I highly recommend Station Plaza veterinary group.”

“Not a long wait. Everyone at the front desk knowledgeable and helpful. Vet Techs and Dr. Lara professional, listen well and are matter of fact during the examination of my cat. Advise was welcomed and appreciated so that I may maintain my cat's health and happiness. I am very thankful for all who work there.”

“I would like to say thank you to the Manor Veterinary Clinic. We saw a pigeon get hit by a car and get a broken wing. I called my veterinarian in Eastchester, but they would not take the pigeon. I was passing Manor Veterinary Clinic, so I stopped in to ask if they would take care of the pigeon. They immediately said yes! They got a box and comfortable bedding for the pigeon. They told me if the pigeon could be saved, they would do their best! I followed up with a phone call and they were glad to speak with me! They informed me that they stitched the pigeon up and are making arrangements to have the pigeon go to a bird sanctuary and continue to heal! I just wanted to share my experience with this clinic. The women at the front desk were extremely kind and helpful and the veterinary team did not think twice to help this pigeon!”

“My cat, Zephyr, and I are grateful beyond words!!!!! I recently moved back to NY and didn't have a regular vet setup yet when my cat required emergency dental extractions. Every other vet I called (I called many!) required multiple, costly pre-procedure visits before they would do any dental procedures. My cat was in pain with an active infection in his mouth and this was unacceptable!! Not only was Crawford Animal Hospital the most affordable, but I was able to walk in without an appointment and have his procedure done on the same day!! Dr. Josh was incredibly compassionate towards my cat's needs and my financial situation, and the staff were all so professional, friendly, and clearly love animals. The procedure itself went well and I was able to take my cat home on the same day. He recovered quickly that evening and was 100% by the following morning. I waited a couple of days to post this review in case of any adverse reactions, but I'm happy to report that were none!! Thank you so much Dr. Josh and team for your excellent veterinary care!!!”

“The staff headed by Dr. Gamal Yousry were not only very knowledgeable but friendly and professional. I always look forward to seeing them care for my adult dog. Thank you very much. God bless you all.”

“We LOVE Dr.Landefeld is so thorough with her examinations and is clear with everything. We took in a stray kitten and brought him in to be seen and have been following through with his care with the great staff here at feline veterinary hospital. Will be recommending to all friends and family who have feline companions”

“Dr. DeFeis is the best! He has been taking care of my dogs for over 20 years. He is so patient and kind! Drove from LI to Queens just to see him! I really trust his holistic approach!”

“I’ve been coming here for years with my pets!!

I have a very aggressive and large dog and they so kindly squeezed me in when he started limping. They were extremely patient with both me and my dog Sam. Dr. Kremmerman, Malik, Diana and the front desk staff (I’m so sorry I forgot your names!!!) were absolutely wonderful and made this process so much less stressful. I had been dreading coming in to get the help he needed because of his aggression. I’m so incredibly glad I came. Thank you guys so much from the bottom of my heart!!!

Prices are extremely reasonable and staff goes above and beyond to cater for you and your pets’ specific needs!”

“Great vet for standard check ups. Dr. Kirk is great and the staff are amazing - they truly love animals. Only wish their hours were extended; I have to call off work to bring my dogs here, and there’s always a long wait even with an appointment.”

“Dr. Pellegrino and her entire team have been truly amazing in caring for my senior dogs. From the moment you walk in, everyone is so kind, patient, and genuinely compassionate. You can feel how much they care, not just about the pets, but about the people who love them too.

They took such gentle, thoughtful care of my dog Littleboy throughout his senior years, and I will always be grateful for the love and respect they showed him. During one of the hardest times, their support meant more to me than I can fully express.

They are continuing that same level of care with my dog Babygirl, helping us focus on keeping her comfortable and supported. Dr. Pellegrino always takes the time to explain everything clearly and never makes me feel rushed or unsure. I always feel heard and reassured after speaking with her.

What really stands out is the warmth and empathy of the entire team. My dogs have always been treated with such gentleness and dignity, and that means everything to me.

I feel incredibly lucky to have found them, and I cannot recommend Dr. Pellegrino and her staff enough, especially for anyone caring for senior pets.”

“I recently moved to the Garvies Point area with my 13-year-old, 100-pound Chocolate Lab, Brewski. Instead of taking him back to his longtime veterinarian in Oyster Bay, I decided to visit Brookville Animal Hospital and explained my situation that he was an older dog. He helped me right away. The staff was incredibly gracious and accommodating.

Dr. Mark Plunkett evaluated Brewski and provided exceptional care. Some time later, when Brewski’s health began to decline, Dr. Jeff Krasnoff kindly offered to come to our apartment to check on him. Sadly, the morning before Dr. Krasnoff’s visit, Brewski had to be rushed to an emergency hospital, where we had to make that difficult decision that no animal lover should have to go through.

Throughout it all, Dr. Krasnoff reached out to me during that difficult time and showed remarkable compassion and professionalism. They sent a beautiful handwritten condolence letter afterwards which was first class. I would wholeheartedly recommend Brookville Animal Hospital to any animal lover seeking truly caring and dedicated veterinarians and staff.”
