I have had animals my whole life, and therefore have been to many different vets, both in NY & out…read moreof state. But now that I have found Dr. Balbour, I can never see myself going to another vet. I trust her completely in every way. While she many not be the cheapest vet in town, and my husband and I live on a VERY strict budget, we refuse to compromise when it comes to the health and welfare of our furry kids. I feel that Dr. Balbour is worth every penny she charges, because as with most things in life, you get what you pay for. And in this case, you get what you pay for and so much more. Dr. Balbour genuinely cares about animals, and treats each of our pets as though they were her own. She is generous with her time, both in and out of the office. Due to how great a vet she is, her practice continues to grow and expand, so there are times that we experience longer waits than I would normally accept. However, once we get into the exam room with her, the reason that we sometimes wait becomes very clear: she makes us feel as though we are her only clients. She gives each patient and owner all of the time they need with her. She gives the most thorough exams, takes time to answer all questions, explains everything in detail, and addresses all of our concerns. She also takes time to educate us on anything we need to know to be the best pet parents we can be. Even though she is very busy - sometimes she's moving very fast during the exam - I have NEVER felt rushed or that she was anything but totally thorough in my pets' exams and her interactions with me. During the exam, she explains everything that she is doing, step by step. If I ask her to break down the prices of each element of the exam, she happily does so, and helps me decide what is necessary and what I can afford. She always gives me clear and accurate estimates before any procedure, and the receptionist Dana even emails me estimates for my routine upcoming appoints ahead of time, if I ask. I have NEVER felt that she was trying to upsell me!! In fact, I feel as though she tries to give me the best deal for me & my pets by making sure I know all of my options. I have NEVER felt as though she recommended any unnecessary procedures and tests - like I said, I feel as though the welfare of my animals is her top concern. When I have had to put any of my pets to sleep :( , which is an unfortunate reality of choosing to share my life with animals, Dr. Balbour has handled the situation better than any vet I have ever been to. I have come to completely trust her, and rely heavily on her advice in these situations. I feel as though she weighs trying to give me the most possible time with my beloved animal against what is the right thing to do for that animal. So when she tells me it's time, I know it's true. I have NEVER walked away wondering if I had done the right thing, if it was too soon, or if I waited too long. In my opinion, it is times like this where I believe she most shines. I can see that she feels the pain of the lost of my pet. Both her and her staff are caring, sympathetic, and understanding. They make the experience as easy as possible for me, and explain everything step by step. Then she makes me a paw print, personally decorating it by hand. I have been going to her for almost 10 years now, and I have no plans to ever change. I even referred my mother-in-law, whose cat, Chloe, had been banned from 5 vets & groomers for extremely difficult behavior. Dr. Balbour is the only vet who has ever been able to successfully groom & treat this cat, and she actually seems to enjoy the challenge. Other vets in the past had been mean to Chloe and became easily frustrated with her. Chloe's last vet actually charged my mother-in-law an extra "difficult animal fee" and didn't even do a thorough examination because they didn't want to deal with the "really f**king nasty cat" (yep, that's a direct quote. The vet actually said that to my 70 year old mother-in-law). In the 3 years that Chloe went to that particular vet, they never weighed her, took her temperature, or performed blood work. They would only groom her if she was under anesthesia, which meant that 3 or 4 times a year this poor Persian cat would be knocked out, without ever getting any blood work to make sure it was safe. But now she goes to Balbour, who treats the cat with patience, kindness, love and respect. Dr. Balbour wouldn't even consider sedating the cat, let alone put her under full anesthesia multiple times a year. She charges NO difficult cat fees, and in the 3 years that Chloe's been going there, there have been no incidents. Chloe's behavior is actually improving during her visits, and I am sure we owe that all to the way Balbour treats her. I can say so much more, but I think I have made this review long enough, lol. Suffice to say, I love Dr. Balbour and her staff, and so do all of my animals!

I am a very disappointed. of course I had to do the right thing by this woman and pay her back. miller place vet took advantage of her kindness. there is no compassion over there at all. to the one who had the after thought sense to check if he's chipped, thank you. - snoopy is now at home with his family, we are now $800 in the hole for their mistake.

This is the second time I've had a reason to come to your emergency hospital. I have found the care and the staff to be outstanding and compassionate. Your front desk staff is pleasant,personable, attentive, and quick. While waiting for our cat, I watched how staff treated other patients as they came and went. One couple was met with our vet tech and a gurney in the parking lot to bring their dog in. Staff were amazing. Today, Dr. Mel thoroughly explained our cats problem and how sedation would be needed for treatment. She took photographs of the cats's mouth to help us understand the problem and she explained what medication we would be leaving with. Our pet was given an injection that would last for two weeks. We went in at roughly 1030 and we were out by 3:30. After the staff time invested, diagnosis, sedation, several medications, surgical work, the fee for service on a Sunday was $760. I thought this was a more than fair and reasonable bill. The vet tech.(whose name I did not get today) did an exceptional job of explaining the statement. Another vet tech, John I met on another day was equally as kind. The entire team seems so cohesive. That is a difficult thing to achieve in any office . My only complaint is they are an emergency room. When needed, This is the vet office that I would want to go to on a regular basis. Sheila Carpenter LMSW
