DO HUMANS GET VACCINATED EVERY YEAR OR TWO FOR THEIR ENTIRE LIVES FOR THE SAME DISEASES??? NO It would create autoimmune disease. They actually said that a technician almost lost a finger to a bite and that was the reason for the new requirement. This is nonsense! I'm a physician, trust me, if they had a rabies concern, their technicians can be pre-vaccinated. It is recommended that they do do. This is about $$$$. This is unethical and medically dangerous to the animals. YOU CAN DO BETTER. Protect your pet. Below They will tell you it's law. Read it for yourself. It is not law. Titers are acceptable and many dogs and cats are exempt from vaccination such as unwell animals like mine who is at the end of her life. Refusing pain meds (doggy Motrin) for crippling arthritis is actually a violation of medical ethics for vets. This was a cruel refusal to refill a medication and abandonment of an animal that was part of their practice. They had been refilling this medication for years. Read the law.

I brought my cat Valentine there and he pooped in his carrier on way there and she and her staff knew that.

And believe me I was asking nicely until the slamming. I told Dr. Williman about the incident and she said we have a policy that customers don't watch while pets get washed. Policy?? Are you freaking kidding me?? All I wanted was for her to use soap. I ended up having to give him a bath when I got home. Dr. Willimann likes to give herself airs of being this cozy country vet meanwhile she neglects immediate needs of the owners and pets.

Here's something to consider. When Oreo was euthanized I took him here and requested a private cremation, paw clay print and fur, all included in the price. Jeter passed away at home so it was a private cremation only. I ordered the paw clay print too. The new thing was I had to call Final Gift (https://www.finalgift.com/) the following morning and tell them that I wanted his fur. When I called Final Gift told me it would cost $25 to get me some fur. Seriously? The amount you give for $25? Had I know this prior I would have cut all the hair I wanted for free. They get you through their grief. I gave this feedback to both Final Gift and the hospital, it's only right that people know this before hand so they can make the decision. So cut your pet's hair before you bring him in to the animal hospital if you don't want to pay this.

We had the most delightful experience at Katonah Bedford VCA! To codify the visit as such says a…read morelot, given that we'd schlepped there regarding an unresolved, terribly worrisome medical issue (recurrent ear infections causing vestibular issues) experienced by my otherwise purrfect, sweet, ebullient albeit occasional douchebag of miracle of a cat, Faunti (little Lord Fauntleroy, AKA Homeslice). We drove from Brooklyn to see DR. TIM CHAN, THE DERMATOLOGIST, because the excellent ER vet we saw at VERG, the best ER in Brooklyn, recommended him (he was a resident at Tufts when she was a grad student there). Hot tip: Dr. Chan is newish to the practice so at present you can get in with this brilliant, research-oriented yet utterly humanistic, thorough AF, compassionate, personable dermatologist much quicker than you can at NYC specialist clinics like Blue Pearl (obviously if you're local, even better!). It took us an hour and 15 minutes to get to VCA from Park Slope, Brooklyn (it would taken us an hour to get to the Upper East Side after parking so it's not that much of a further schlep after all). After going to Dr. Chan, I wouldn't feel comfortable going to anyone else for my animal's dermatological care (who knew that veterinary derms were ear specialists)? We'd been through the wringer when we got to VCA. Three generalist vet appointments and two ER visits and I felt nothing was resolved prior to the visit. Initially, there had been just a clear discharge and some head shaking but when the ear infection recurred, our little bunny of a pussycat was suffering from vestibular issues (extreme dizziness causing constant falls, bugged out eyes, and a head tilt) and the ER doc at VERG had strongly recommended we visit Dr Chan given that every time he went off an antibiotic, he'd immediately become symptomatic again. Dr. Chan went over pros and cons of different treatment options. He detailed the condition of Faunti's ears so throughly. He used a video otoscope to examine Faunti's ears. Generalists don't have this equipment and they were repeatedly unable to detect the state of one of Faunti's eardrums (whether it was in tact or completely ruptured) and Chan was able to determine its condition (if the eardrum is ruptured, ear cleaning at home isn't possible) and to get more literal insight into what was informing the recurrences. Chan has a delightful bedside manner and he conveys things cogently and intelligibly to dumbasses like myself. He knew so much about the anatomy of the ear of course and took into account every last variable of the backstory to make his recommendations. I was so so impressed by this doctor! I kind of wish he also practiced general veterinary medicine cause I'd schlep up to VCA for my little strudel's general vet care. A great thing about VCA is that they have an on-site CT scan should one be needed. I'd discovered that not every dermatologist I was considering had a CT scan on-site. If they don't, the animal has to go under anesthesia twice at two separate facilities should a CT scan and then a deep ear flush be warranted. VCA is a one-stop shop, as they have all diagnostic radiological equipment on-site. The nursing/vet tech, and front desk staff at the practice are absurdly wonderful. The place is also spotless. Shout out to Adriana and Kristina (nursing/vet techs) who are GEMS. They made our elderly cat feel like he was the belle of the ball, even while he was undergoing a fairly uncomfortable ear-cleaning. By the end, I felt hurt and embarrassed that Faunti didn't seem to want to stop hugging Kristina in order to go home with us! I'm like, "Bitch, make it seem like you love us as much as we love you!" But seriously, Adriana did a very comprehensive intake with us (sorry I babbled, you were so patient and asked such great questions) and was so gentle with Faunti. Kristina gave us great pointers on how to best dose, clean ears, and clip nails at home. VCA manages your expectations regarding billing (they send you an estimate, which includes a high and low of what you can expect to pay) and I was not shamed when I asked if there was a less expensive treatment option. Regarding cost, I didn't feel like anything was tacked on to pad the bill (and I have felt that way at times at other veterinary offices). What we were charged was totally fair if not on the low end of what I was expecting to pay given the quality of care and Chan's technical capabilities. We also have a very detailed estimate of what the next possible procedure will cost if Faunti suffers another recurrence. We've been in a two and half month nightmare with this situation and we finally found someone who could guide the ship to safer waters and for that we are infinitely grateful! Sorry for this dreadfully boring and meandering review if you read this far. I think it's safe to say I'm a fangirl of this doctor and his practice.

From the very beginning, about five years ago, I was impressed by the caring, loving way that my boy and I were treated. No matter how many times I brought him there, everything was explained gently and thoroughly. Munchkin was 16 years old. I could see severe changes in him. He lost interest in walking the neighborhood, he lost weight, stopped eating and drinking. I knew that his time had come. The procedure was humane and compassionate and although my heart was shattered, I knew that I was doing what was best for my boy. Dr. Tarasoff was wonderful. She said all the right things and made it as easy as possible for me. Yesterday, I received a handwritten card from Dr. Tarasoff and her staff. Enclosed was a clipping of Munchkin's hair and a paw print. It was so kind and thoughtful and I will treasure it always. I highly recommend the Animal Hospital of White Plains. I have never experienced such compassion. Thank you, Dr. Tarasoff and all of your associates.

No. I currently have 3 different places on rotation for various reasons.
