I needed my cat to be spayed (she was 6 months) I was looking for the most "economical" nearest vet around; i called and their fee sound the most reasonable one. When i was there this guy (the "vet") was the coldest and meanest POS in town. They didn't have space for my cat the surgery day and he literally said in front of me that my cat was a "cigarette" and should be fit that day. They ended up charging me as much as any other expensive vet office in Manhattan!
I was so scared for my girl, she has a wound that I haven't seen before in another female cat I had before. I'll take her next year to her annual and I hope I'm wrong but I'll never come back to this place again.

General Staff were compassionate and warm. They get a Star. However, Dr M. Kopel was brief, dismissive. He almost seemed bored and bothered. We will not be going here ever again.

Brought my cat here and it was a Huge mistake! The vet was so cold and detached and didn't even do the preliminary things like take his weight, check his temperature, or listen to his heart. He sent me out of the room and I hears my cat scream when they went to take blood. Took xray and he didn't even know what was wrong. Said he had fluid and I asked why. Got blood test back and then he says my cat needs ultrasound. Stil not sure what's wrong!
By this time spent over $400 dollars. Called Saturday after deciding to spend another $450 on ultrasound. Vet said I had to pay now even though procedure wouldn't be done until following Tuesday. I asked if I can wait until Monday as didn't have any credit card on hand He basically tried to make me feel like it had to be now or I wouldn't get a spot for my cat on Tuesday Right then I knee he only cared about the money and not my sick cat. Went elsewhere and sadly it was too late. Had to put my cat to sleep Two days later, this terrible vets office calls me to ask if I Still want the ultrasound! The nerve! Never, I mean Never go here! Just wants the money and hates animals. I would give a zero if I could!

Nice place. Friendly staff. I think the doctor is pretty smart. I just got a pup and haven't had a pup in 40 years. I'm a little nervous and misunderstood the vaccination instructions from the seller.but. The doctor knew what the right procedure is.
