Moved to this area recently and my young duck needed help and I am so glad I met this vet! He…read morehelped me with my duck when no one else could. Him and his assistant helped me learn how to give my duck antibiotics. SHout out to his assistant who actually Googled extra help for me. Everyone was pleasant and helpful and kind. Dr. Brown took the time to talk and I just felt like I was dealing with a trusted advisor and not a business. Finding a vet you trust with your animal seems to really be difficult, especially for me. I don't think it is one size fits all for sure. I personally really like Dr. Brown and his staff!! Now let's just hope I can give my duck his meds :0/

I cannot even put into words what my experience here was like…read more If yelp gave me the opportunity to list negative stars, I would. I left this practice in tears and shaking. Was I told that my cat was dying? No! I was basically told NOTHING! Charles Brown, the vet, subjected me to AT LEAST 50 irrelevant, stupid anecdotes (one about a Japanese mushroom expert who died after eating a mushroom) having nothing to do w/pet care, spent at least 10 minutes rifling through a dermatological reference book, attempting to find the name of a condition (clearly obsessed w/this endeavor, even though it didn't matter to me), castigated me for buying into "grain-free food" marketing, and made the most heartless, unempathic, stupid jokes I have ever heard. I DO NOT CARE THAT HE WAS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED TO ME BY A FRIEND, I DO NOT CARE HOW MANY PATIENTS LOVE THIS SITCOM VET. I DO NOT CARE THAT HE HAS BEEN IN PRACTICE FOR 40+ YEARS. I could go on for pages, but I will only relate two more incidents: (1) I was charged $32 for a feline rabies vaccine, which would have been acceptable, except that my cat did NOT receive any vaccines; (2) the cost of an exam, during which he said it was unnecessary to take my cat's temperature, was $82; and the entire bill was 4 TIMES WHAT I HAVE PAID ELSEWHERE. His last words to me as I waited for the bill, as tears streamed down my face, and after he had spent 40 minutes convincing me to arrange a follow-up appt in 2 weeks, were: "Well, you can set up the appt EARLIER if you want. If her leg falls off, I can glue it back on." Completely devoid of compassion and appropriateness. If an MD said that about your children, wouldn't you punch his lights out? This demented freak should be given a permanent room at the Mid-Hudson Psychiatric Center, where I am certain they have an extensive file on him.

Absolutely terrible. My poor 6 year old German sheapard died at the hands of this clinic. Perfectly…read morehealthy, no underlying conditions or problems in his life. We took him in for a rabies shot, first time at the clinic. He never had any problems, even they told us he was the healthiest German sheapard they have ever seen at his age. Perfect weight, muscle, diet etc. They claimed my dog was launching at them, due to the stress they put him under, leading to them "sedating" him, although he had a muzzle on and could not possibly do anything to them. They kept giving him more doses of sedation, when time came to them giving him the shot, they realized he had stopped breathing, his heart stopped beating, and my poor baby went to heaven. This was such an awful and gut wrenching experience considering the dog has been with us for years. This like this do not happen often to such healthy dogs. This shows the maximum example of unprofessionalism and lack of education of the people who work here!! Who could give a dog such a high dose to the point where he has a heart attack and heart failure?!?! Never bring your pets here.

I have absolutely nothing bad to say about the Veterinary office we originally selected other the high costs. They took great care of our Boxer. I've since learned that they are no longer a Private Practice, but bought out by a Corporation. It was mentioned by a co-worker that I might want to try the Veterinary Clinic of Hardyston. We saw Dr. Cerf for our elderly dog with a sudden severe eye ulcer problem. Dr. Cerf took the time with us to explain everything he knew about what was going on. He even reached out to a Veterinarian Ophthalmologist at no additional cost to us for a second opinion. I HIGHLY recommend the Veterinary Center of Hardyston. The staff is friendly and amazing
