Veterinarians in New Hyde Park, NY

“**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'! ❤️?”

“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.”

“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.”
