    I love Brooklyn Roots!
    Jennifer P.

    My cat and I love coming here and always feel supported by all staff members. I recently adopted my cat who has needed extra care and I feel so lucky to have been recommended Brooklyn Roots by a friend. Every time we visit, my cat receives thorough and loving treatments that are helping him heal. I also appreciate every staff member speaking directly with me about his care and progress. I feel encouraged and empowered with knowledge that makes it easy for me to care for him. We both highly recommend Brooklyn Roots. Thank you especially to Dr. Lantner ! We are so grateful for all. Love, Bebay & Jennifer

    My fierce beast is hard to handle, but Brooklyn Roots Veterinary gets it right.

    Consistently excellent and compassionate care from all the vets as well as the vet techs.

    My two year old cat at Brooklyn Roots waiting for Dr. Salas!
    Stephanie D.

    Love this place! I came across Brooklyn Roots after originally scheduling an appointment for my 2 year old cat at Park Slope Veterinary Center for 11:30 am this morning. They ended up canceling my appointment as I was on my way there so long story short I was very unhappy since I took time off work for this appointment. I still needed to take my cat to the vet for his annual wellness exam and vaccinations today so I quickly looked up vets near me and found Brooklyn Roots. I called them up and they were able to see my cat within 20 minutes of my call despite the fact that it wasn't an emergency. When I arrived, I was really impressed with how clean and professional the center was. The young woman at the front desk was extremely personable and Dr. Salas was amazing! She answered all of my questions, went through every detail of my cats history with me and was really sweet and patient with him as he gets really stressed out easily. Dr. Salas is extremely knowledgeable and provided me with some insight on some of my cats previous conditions that other vets weren't able to tell me much about. I was really happy with the way me and my cat were treated. I highly HIGHLY recommend Brooklyn Roots and Dr. Salas.

I've searched without success for years for an adequate veterinary provider, as my five-year-old cat, Rex, gets extremely stressed and anxious going to the vet's office. Comfort Paws offers the in-home alternative we need, and I'm so grateful for their services. Dr. Irons was prompt, friendly, organized, and communicative. She listened carefully to my concerns about Rex's health and my characterization of his temperament, and approached him in a way that allowed her to do a much more thorough examination than any other vet has without upsetting him unduly. When he became agitated near the end of the visit (as most cats would when receiving shots), she gave him the space he needed to calm down and monitored his body language and signals to prevent any injury or further distress. Comfort Paws will continue to be our go-to vet going forward, and I'm so happy to have found somewhere that can work with us to make sure Rex--who's a very sweet, amiable kitty, but who happens to be a large cat with major fears around medical treatment--can thrive.

    Saying goodbye to our beloved 14-year old dog was the hardest experience we've ever faced, and I…read morecannot imagine having gone through it without the care we received from Dr. Irons. From the very beginning, she was gentle, thoughtful, and deeply respectful of both our dog and our family. I might also add that while it wasn't yet an emergency situation, she was able to come on very short notice, which alleviated our dog's pain, and our emotional discomfort. She moved at a pace that honored what we were going through, explaining everything clearly while also knowing when to step back and simply give us space. Our dog was able to pass peacefully, surrounded by love, in an environment that felt calm and intentional rather than clinical. In a moment filled with overwhelming grief, she brought a sense of steadiness and grace that we won't forget. She provided compassionate care at the moment we needed it most. We are incredibly grateful and thankful, and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone facing this heartbreaking decision.

During our years with Dr. Loose, she's diagnosed and treated issues that we believe that other lesser vets would have missed. Dr. Loose combines talent and true love for animals. Her compassion is unmatched. As great as the office is, the staff is even better. Everyone is polite, caring, sensitive and friendly. It's really a pleasure to bring an animal to Dr. Loose. Dr. Loose is the perfect combination of respecting the client's wishes, but being firm with her guidance when she sees benefit for the animal. For example, we didn't want to take a certain vaccination, but Dr. Loose made the point about the risks in our area, and we went with her guidance. We were glad that she made things clear. Even more amazing is that Dr. Loose continues to price her services very fairly. The value is just terrific. We are on our third puppy under Dr. Loose's care, and we wouldn't take him anywhere else.

When I got there, I called, checked in, and I brought my cat to the door. The vet tech called after they took my cat in. The vet tech is really friendly and nice. She asked thorough question to make sure she knows the background info and any medical condition of my cat. My cat is a stray cat that I have been feeding since 2020. Recently we decided to adopt her and give her a forever home. She was super nervous and scared when we put her in the carrier since it's her first time going to the vet and being in the carrier. Dr. Mikhelzon was able to calm her down and do the exam. After Dr. Mikhelzon examined her, she gave me a call to go over her findings and recommendations. Dr. Mikhelzon is able to answer all my questions. Then we did the payment over the phone with front desk. After my cat got her vaccines and blood work, Dr. Mikhelzon brought her out and go over a bunch of brochures which have info my cat might need. Overall, it was a pleasant experience. Everyone wore masks, and followed social distancing. Thank you Dr. Mikhelzon!

    The owner's response contains inaccurate information. This appointment was not made "the night…read morebefore." It was scheduled approximately two weeks in advance because my schedule is busy and I needed the appointment. As shown in my screenshots and call logs, I communicated with the office multiple times that morning that I was actively on my way from Staten Island and provided an updated ETA. Despite that, I received voicemails threatening cancellation only minutes after my scheduled appointment time while actively driving and parking. I also reached out privately to management before posting publicly and received no response or accountability. At this point, I stand by my review regarding the lack of professionalism, bedside manner, and how the situation was handled.

    In a neighborhood as charming as Brooklyn Heights, this vet exceeds expectations. Let me tell you…read morewhy. 1. The curb appeal of this vet is so cute. It adds to the charm of the neighborhood. They always decorate for holidays, and I especially love the giant skeleton they have at Halloween. Plus, we always have cute dogs hanging out at that corner. 2. I love that we have a privately owned, neighborhood vet in Brooklyn Heights. I was expecting the staff to be compassionate and helpful, and they were beyond nice. The inside is very cozy, but the patient rooms look modern and clean. 3. Brooklyn Heights is fancy, so I wasn't sure what to expect when it came to the bill. My dog Jeffrey had to renew all his annual vaccinations plus his three-year vaccinations. He had a full wellness check, including bloodwork and a fecal test. He had the works. It was expensive, but not unreasonable. Across all 5 vaccines and testing, it was maybe $100 more compared to prices at our last VCA vet in Boerum Hill. I was expecting more TBH. They also swabbed Jeffrey's ear to check for bacteria, and I did not see this on our bill. Thank you for that, Dr Chan! 4. I had read some reviews of people complaining about how the staff was difficult when asked for price breakdowns. I DID ask, and they were so kind. They really went out of their way to explain everything to me before I was charged or any procedures/testing had been done. If you had any questions or concerns with pricing, I would not hesitate to ask their staff, as they could not have been more accommodating. 5. Dr. Chan and her assistant (I'm looking for her name!) really went out of their way to adore Jeffrey. They were so sweet with him, and kept mentioning how cute and perfect he was (WHICH HE IS) and no parent gets tired of hearing how wonderful their child is.

I was always skeptical about BondVet because it looked so fancy with the highest visit fee around at $129 (although you can get $50 off first visit if booked online, which I did). After coming here for 5 visits in the past month, I can finally say that I am happy that I came here. When your pet is in need of care, the money is worth spending as long as they are better. While I haven't received all the answers yet, I will say that I truly appreciate the vet and staff care. My pup saw Dr.Polina Mikhelzon who has really listened to all my concerns and helped me find the best options in consideration of the costs as well. I feel like she really just wants to help my dog get better. It's been a stressful process, but glad to have BondVet by our side. They also always provide me the option to purchase products recommended elsewhere, so I could save some money. Tip: Free heartworm testing for preventive care on Tuesday-Thursdays!
