We saw Dr. Christine Smith and she was amazing. The whole staff was friendly, polite, patient, kind and honest. I have never had a better vet experience.

They are nice and helpful. But your dog still won't like going there ;/

Randy Bailey

Great doctors, great staff. Everything you need is explained. All that & they love animals.

Diane Gigliotti

Dr. Howell is a Doggie Rock Star! My sweet Maizie has been suffering from ear infections and has had various treatments, but unfortunately the infections still returned. But Dr. Howell tried something different and it totally took care of it!!!! The Staff and all of the vets there are wonderful and caring. I would never trust my baby girl with any other place than Animal General.

This place is fabulous ! Dr. Shea she's super kind, alert, efficient and her interest is really the well-being of the animals. And for that reason I believe they are the only veterinary ,that do the TITER test before any unnecessary vaccinations.This is the most important thing for the health of your Pet. The majority of vets. they ignore the dangerous of over vaccination and continue to do so. Just for this particular reason, they stand out of the rest in name of Mother Nature. This is the best place to take your pet to. Honest and Respectful Animal Practice. Thank you, good people!

Geoff Gibbins

This was the only vet in the area that stepped forward today when I found a dying bird in the park. They were caring and considerate and truly went out of their way to help an injured animal without profiting one dime themselves. I will be bringing my dog here from now on. A vet that puts a love of animals above a love of money is rare in Manhattan, and they earned a new patient and a ton of thanks!

Marianela Polcyn

Great staff, Great vets !! I have been going there for 6 years and we have got greats service and hospitality for my dog

Sergio Costa

I am still boiling mad over this. After shopping around for teeth cleaning for 2 dogs in NJ and several New England animal clinics, we were pleasantly surprised when we found Animal General quoting reasonable prices. We made an appt to for an office consultation. On that day, the doctor told us there was a sliding scale of prices. Everything seemed to appear routine especially given that my 2 dogs both had teeth cleaning done 2 years ago in Omaha NE at $320 each. They quoted us $348. On the day of the cleaning, I get a call that all went well and that one of my dogs needed 4 teeth extractions because they were loose. I have no idea why the doctor didn't tell us that on the day of the consultation. If you can't tell they are loose on the day of the consultation, they are not loose in my opinion and certainly fine for my dog. So after having paid half the cost ($348) of what we thought would be ~$696, I show up and my balance is $860! - bringing the total cost to $1208. This is not how business should be done. You can't just increase costs like this without informing the client. That's more than double what the client expected. That can put someone at great financial risk. While I appreciate their judgment, I still have to pay for it and that should be my choice. I have to prioritize costs all the time even with things I need. I would have been happy going on again for teeth extraction on another day. It's unethical to do this to people.

Margaret Becker

Wonderful, kind warm treatment from the entire staff.

Georgette Gates

Elizabeth Ackerman

Kindness and professionalism are the rule at Animal General. The doctors, nurses and technicians never fail to deliver top notch medical attention, delivered in a caring way. 4 different dogs I've had and continue to have prove that this consistency is something we can rely on.

Jennifer Lewis Handley

I have been taking my cat to AG for years. When she was 10 years old she was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. I attribute Dr. Yang's expertise to saving her life - she's now 16 and goes in for an echocardigram every year. She also tore her ACL when she was 14, and again AG did right by her and called in an excellent surgeon to repair her knee. She goes to AG regularly and I trust their judgement and am grateful for their service.

My wife and I have been taking our cats to Animal General for more than 25 years. Before that, we went to other Upper West Side vets—but they don’t compare. All of the people at Animal General are helpful, friendly and caring—to pets and their owners. We wouldn’t go anywhere else.

Robert Dipierro

I had a wonderful dog from her birth in 1988 until we euthanized her in 2004. We lived primarily on the upper west side, and also in the Catskill Mountains and Long Island. We had vets in the 3 locations and tried several doctors over the years. Without a doubt, Animal General and Dr. Paul Howell are at the top of the profession. He exhibits extensive experience, wisdom and understanding. In 2014 a new rescue dog joined my family. Over these 3 years I feel we have received top of the line care and advice , and you all know how important our dogs are to us in this era.

Karen S Santos da Silva

I've been bringing my cats to this clinic for years. So far, my experiences have been really good. Nice facilities, trustworthy doctors, great techs. It was very important to me that when my cat got cancer the vet didn't try to get us to do expensive treatments. And complimentary nail trims are a great plus for those of us with difficult beasts!

Linda B. Friedman

I have been going to Animal General with my cats and dogs for nearly 30 years. The staff is attentive and compassionate. The veterinarians are excellent diagnostitions and my confidence in the hospital has only increased over the past 30 years. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Naomi Lourie

I recommend Animal General with all my heart. When I adopted from them, I was so impressed by the staff I continued to use them as my primary vet, even though they aren't conveniently located for me. The doctors are knowledgeable and compassionate. When the wonderful Dr. Klafin was out, the other vets were able to step in and provide seamless care. They were able to navigate my pet's chronic health issues, even when he had an atypical response to medication. Every staff member is helpful and pleasant. I wish I had healthcare like this for myself!

ellen peterson

I have been bringing my dogs to Animal General for nearly 18 years..and I have relied on them for the best care and I have never been disappointed. My previous dog, Mugsy, lived to almost 17, and we depended on them, from the time she was 8 weeks old...thru 2 oral surgeries and wellness care for her last 2 years, as she was determined to keep going despite her age. My new boy, an adoptee from Puerto Rico, arrived underweight, and needing a lot of nurturing and care. With Dr. Howell and Dr. Yang overseeing his health, he is now thriving, with a thick, shiny coat and bright eyes. I continue to recommend Animal General to dog friends...and I especially am reassured by their continued interest in keeping up with the latest research from veterinary schools. And their love of dogs.

Vivian rosenberg

I have been coming to Animal General for many years. The doctors are fabulous, especially Dr. Howell and Dr. Yang. I would never go anywhere else. You always get one on one special care. All the people who work there are terrific, especially Joy and Mary. I would never go anywhere else with my animals.

AnaLuz Amore

Really nice for my dog!

This review is for the wonderful young lady who works here that took in a pigeon I found when no one else would help me. A few weeks ago I found this wounded pigeon outside in the cold, and everyone I approached ignored me when I asked where I can go for this pigeon to receive medical help. I ended up going on google searching for a animal hospital close by and this was one of a few hospitals that I found. When I walked in, it looked like they were getting ready to close, however the nice young lady (her name was Chaya) listened to me and accepted the pigeon from me. She didn’t turn me away like the other people I approached. What a wonderful and lovely young lady. May God bless her wonderful heart!

Carina Storrs

I have had only good experiences at Animal General. Dr. Stein did a fantastic job spaying/neutering and doing a checkup for the three kittens I rescued and fostered. She has been very helpful with my followup questions. The receptionists have also been very professional, caring and helpful.

Marcia Brubeck

Steve Feldman has provided many years of medical care for my cat, Charlie Brown, and for a white rabbit I found on the street in New Britain. He is a dedicated physician and advocates for his patients with unmistakable passion and a determination to safeguard their well-being. As a pet owner of many years' standing, I wholeheartedly recommend him. You cannot take better care of your animal companion than to entrust its medical needs to Steve. Fast forward to 2018. My beloved Egyptian Mau was dying of unknown causes. A vet nearer to my house than Avon could not treat him and gave him up for dead. Dr. Feldman gave me a same day appointment, read the test results, hazarded a diagnosis where the other vet could not, prescribed medication, and--wow! I thought he was some kind of veterinary Houdini. My wonderful cat is now on the mend. I am so grateful to Steve Feldman and the staff at Animal General.

Gary L

Expensive!

Su ZQZ

Every time I visit Dr. Dolan with my lab, she takes time with the exam, explanations and understands that my comfort (in addition to my dog's comfort) is important. Her front office and vet tech team are also phenomenal to work with.

Dr. Karimian and staff are so friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend them for all of your veterinary needs!

Cat Giarrizzo

Today was our first appointment at Animal General and it was a very positive experience! The staff was very friendly and welcoming! We came to this office because we followed Dr. Smith who just started here last week. She has been treating our dog in South Windsor for the past 14 years and we wanted to continue being under her care. Dr. Smith has been our Vet for the past 25 years and she has always provided such excellent care and loving attention to all five of our dogs! We will definitely continue making the trip from South Windsor to Animal General!

Lee Wilson

Great care for our pet's

Bonnie McCool

Thank you! In a time of uncertainty, you where my shining light. I walked in thinking I was going to have to make a very hard decision. The staff was so kind, gentle and patient with my fur baby. We walked out with a diagnosis and a new game plan, something that I could not get elsewhere. I am looking forward to having my fur baby around for a long time and to being able to share him with Dr. Feldman and the Animal General staff!

Duane Clocker

Great staff and Doctors!!

Adela Urbina

My daughter found Animal General when her cat got very sick, and the one thing she likes the most is that you can call them at anytime and someone will answer all your questions. They provide you with in home remedies or they can advice you on weather the condition needs a doctor's opinion. Price wise, they're very budget friendly. I highly recommend this clinic/hospital to anyone who has a loving family pet.

Excellent vets and staff who really care about your pet! The only downside is that they're pretty expensive...

Jane Schauben

Penny Lane was adopted 14 years ago at Animal General. She has long-standing chronic medical issues, and she has been so well-cared for by Dr. Howell and all of the wonderful staff at Animal General. I highly recommend A.G. and will always have my pet cared for there!

I have been a client at AG for over 10 years. They have always taken good care of my pets. On a few life or death situations with my dog they saved his life and I couldn't be more grateful. I would not think to take them anywhere else.

Melba Villar

My husband and I trust Animal General for all our pets medical needs. The staff is warm and professional. Doctors are excellent. We don't mind traveling from Throggsneck each time. Whenever we have the need to bring them in staff are able to accommodate our needs. I wouldn't take them any place else. My insurance claims are filed without a problem which is a plus. I recently registered Bo and Bear with Camp Canine for Day Care and Boarding where staff there quickly recognized and had great things to say about Animal General. A great confirmation in itself.

Mervyn Michalow

Steven Capozzola

Good people, good doctors.

Nina Thomas

I've been using the services of Animal General since I adopted my rescue dog Dakota last November. They have been extremely welcoming and thorough (I consider returning phone calls in a timely way and following up medical procedures with phone contact extremely thorough). It appears to be very well run and maintained

Bonnie Diaz

I have been at Animal General for almost thirty years! It keeps getting better and better!!! Dr. Howell and Dr. Yang are amazing. Vet tech Jenn and all the staff show so much care for all the animals. Little Gabriel and I are grateful to be in their care.TWO PAW UP!!!

We love Animal General as they are terrific with the dogs & cats. They are pleasant and will do their best to get you in when you need to see a vet quickly, but non-emergency. Have been with them for 5 years since moving back here from NY.

Maureen V. Meehan

Pets get the best care in this vet practice every day. Everyone, from the receptionist through to the doctors is exceptional in their jobs, caring towards the people and animals who come in for care.

Seagrass Siren

Eve Bendett

Kim Carrier

Excellent Doctors & staff.

Christine D'Angelo

Animal General is a wonderful practice and I feel so lucky to have found them for my dogs. The staff are professional and kind, and I never feel pressured or overly persuaded to do unnecessary tests or services. Dr. Karimian and Dr. Dolan were very attentive and caring during one of my dog's declines and passing last summer. They made a very hard period a little easier through their wonderful care.

Mary Farrell

Our two dogs have been patients of Animal General since they were puppies, almost 8 years ago. Both have health complications. Dr. Christina Dolan is our regular vet. She gives the dogs excellent care and explains everything thoroughly, so we can weigh options about diet, vaccines and other medical choices. Dr. Dolan also takes the time to answer my husband's and my (endless) questions. Occasionally, we've needed last-minute appointments and have always been accommodated, sometimes by other vets in the practice who also are terrific. The veterinary assistants and staff are friendly and very helpful. Can't say enough good things about Animal General!

Maggie Griesing

We have been clients of Animal General for over 20 years Dr Steve is the most knowledgeable and compassionate dr Chris, Betsy, Heather, Corine, Regina and everyone else are caring. They have guided us through our four dogs during all stages of their lives.

Steve Zurell

Louisa Hogan

Dr. Feldman is the best! Love ALL the staff at Animal General.

Lorraine Donovan

Everyone here makes the dogs and owners feel welcomed, comfortable, and secure. Thanks for all your support and kindness. Our doggies love going to this Vet care. One of our labs had a lot of anxieties going to the Vet until we started bringing her here. Thank you for making her feel comfortable and less stress on all of us!

Alexander Smith

The doctors and the staff here are all amazing. They're extremely good at what they do and take the time to listen and get to know you and your furry family. I can't recommend Animal General highly enough.

Claire Bamberg

All the veterinarians in the practice are excellent. I switched to this practice from another, local practice 12 years ago and have never looked back.

Wayne King

ALWAYS TOP SHELF TREATMENT OF BAILEY AND US. SO PLEASED YOU ARE OUR GO TO VETS!

Theresa Wing Hines

Dr. Dolan is absolutely fantastic. The care and compassion she gives to her patients are top notch, no matter how ill behaved (my kitty) they are! She is so soothing and comforting. I've been a patron of Animal General since the early 90's and would never think of taking my pets (children) anywhere else. From the front desk to the vet techs, everyone is wonderful. Kudos to all who make this such a terrific place.

Cheryl Ben-David

The nicest group of folks from front desk to clinicians. Our dog races in when we arrive. Leave with great confidence that our dog has received the highest level of care. Based on Dr. Feldman and Dr. Dolan.

Donna Neary

Everyone is friendly and compassionate.

Keith Whitmer

Love everyone at Animal General! So thoughtful and they follow up on everything. Totally digital and up-to-date with records and communication etc. Highly recommend them!

Elisabeth Avery

From her puppyhood to passing, our beloved Gracie received the kind of care we would wish for all our family members. The clinical and support staff were always kind, responsive and medically expert. And over our 14 shared years, we were so grateful that the people of Animal General were as comforting to us as they were to Gracie.

Juana Mendoza

I am Juana Mendoza. For many years I have been a client of the Animal General and I have always been very satisfied with its services. At this Cli- nic my cats are comfortable treated by its highly qualified veterinarians and as well as with all the staff. In addition the Animal General's cozy atmosphere invites me and my pets to visit again.

William Gross

Maybe slightly more expensive than others, but I know of only one other place that comes close . (Miller, on the other side of town).

Rachel Senterfeit

I brought my cat in for his routine shots and found out his top canine teeth needed, most likely, extraction. Dr. Yang explained the procedure to me thoroughly, checked and triple checked that the teeth did actually need to come out, and recommended I schedule a dental. After scheduling the dental exam on the phone (which was incredibly easy, and the person I spoke with answered a lot of questions for me), I brought my cat in to become semi-toothless and have sparkling remaining teeth. Jennifer called me when the procedure was done and updated me on my cat's status, saying those 2 teeth 100% needed to come out according to the X-rays, but the rest of his teeth were in great shape. She answered a plethora of questions for me as well, and told me when I could come get my cat. When I picked him up, she went over home care instructions with me and again updated me on my cat's status. She also informed me he'd been given a long-lasting pain killer and antibiotic injection, so I didn't have to worry about any medicine at home - hooray! My cat, who is 4.5 years old, was immediately playing and eating as soon as we got home and his recovery has gone absolutely smoothly. I would highly recommend Animal General - they remind me of my beloved veterinary practice in Austin (Brodie Animal Hospital), so it's been great finding a veterinarian up here who reminds me of my last home.

I have used Animal General since they were located at Columbus and 93rd many, many moons ago. They have cared for 3 poodles, 1 Akita and 3 Boston Terriers for me. They are wonderful, caring vets. You can't go wrong having them look after your pets.

Lucy DiSanz

I will not say is bad or good. I will let you decide. My sisters cat fractured its leg and needed X-rays and a cast. Initially she was given a bill of $3000.00. My sister who is a college student told them she could not pay that. SOMEHOW the bill was reduced to $900! When it was time to remove the cast they told her $800. My sister a college student (once again) became anxious because she obviously couldn't afford that. I called the clinic to inquire the price of taking off the cast AND the secretary couldn't tell me at all and began to mumbled. She put me on hold and came back and said that the visit was $85 + X-rays which START at $189. I asked why does it START at &189? She said in case they need more?

Ann-Judith Silverman

I have used animal general for all my cats over the years. The vets, nurses, techs etc have all been kind to me and my cats and more importantly excellent professionals. AG has helped me as well my animals get through some pretty bad experiences - except with their help medically and with their compassion we all survived well. The worse was when my cat, an AG adoptee, got breast cancer. But they got expert surgeons and pathologists and Kitty and I survived. Sometimes a cat just gets very ancient and the ailments they have can't be cured. They came to my house so I could hold her during her last moments. AG is a very special place and I would encourage you to trust your pets to them. I can't sing their praises too high, they are that good.

Eminemgirl814

I love Dr. Shea! She is so passionate and caring for the animals she treats. She makes even the hardest situations better.

Donald Joe Brown

We have been using Animal General for 30+ years (including their former location). They have always given our animals wonderful care. We now come from Westchester to have our cat cared for by Dr. Howell. I highly recommend Animal General.

Dmitriy Demidkin

Andrea Fraboni

Professional, knowledgeable and caring staff. Can be a little pricey, but the quality of the care is excellent.

Duncan Freeman

We love Animal General. We've taken our family dog there for years and every vet has been wonderful and caring with her. They answer all our questions, do follow up and are always kind and helpful.

DJ Dacha

Those guys are helpful and luckily nearby, no problems so far. I also enjoyed company of their cats.

Clair McMahon

Excellent first experience! Everyone was friendly and professional, and really took an interest in my pup. Would gladly recommend.

Jasmine Mhrez

Where do I start? They’re so good and caring, SERIOUSLY! They took such good care of my Lola before, during, and after her surgery! They’re so helpful I couldn’t get her to take her meds so they would give her injectables and keep her while we were at work, always, ALWAYS called to follow up and check in after every visit. So attentive and caring they actually listen and really help you to find a solution! Dr. Freedman was so helpful when they first diagnosed Lola and spent time researching and reaching out to specialists to help us find treatment options and solutions. They’re honestly such great caring people I’m so glad I found them. I pay for a banfield wellness plan but haven’t gone back since I found these guys! Thank you Animal General staff for taking such good care of my Lola!

Virginia Dwan

Rest assured that you will find the best veterinary care here at Animal General. I've been bringing cats and dogs here for a number of years. The care and guidance is the best around. And the staff overall is a caring and efficient team. A very positive, supportive experience every time.

dale bernstein

I have used this place off and on for many years. Basically I only use them for emergencies now. They are very crazy about charging for their services. Recently, my dog was being cared by a friend while I was away. The dog had diarrhea . My friend took him to animal general, they said they found nothing wrong with him, Meanwhile they charged my friend $515 for this diagnoses. This is in line with other experiences I have had with them. I have had to question charges as they sometimes charge for things I did not receive. Medications for example. In addition I have never got the same veterinarian twice, which makes me wonder what their work practices are. These are the reasons I no longer use them .

Juliana Sekely

I can't recommend or commend Animal General highly enough. I've been a client for 20+ years and my animals have always received compassionate and professional care. I can always trust their doctors' advice for both routine and complicated medical treatment. They treat my hard to handle pets with the same attention and patience as the easy cases. Viva Animal General.

Edward Morrison

Great Drs for our dogs. Love them

Light

Doctor Dolan is AMAZING. She is very kind, caring and knowledgeable . We are so blessed .

Ian Doukas

My dog died here.

Kimberly Walsh

I can not say enough wonderful things about Dr. Feldman and the staff at Animal General. They saved my dogs life when I wasn't even a patient yet and called them out of desperation. Since then I switched to them and they not only discovered underlying issues my old vet completely missed but he was unbelievably supportive and genuinely compassionate with our dog up until she sadly lost her battle recently. Dr. Feldman is incredibly intelligent, well thought out, thorough, sooooo gentle and loving with pets, and always returns your phone calls promptly. When our time comes for another pet, we will 1000% be going back.

Jayme Lamphere

We have five cats, some older and less healthy so we need a little more than just being able to make a wellness appointment once a year. I have always been able to get a quick appointment when necessary. Given the small size of the practice, I have been impressed with how easily and quickly we have been seen ASAP when needed. I don't feel judged when I ask the price options of treatments before making a decision. Every so often, I get email coupons for things like dental work or just a wellness visit. I generally get the cat's medications online to save any money we can - but, if we do get medications at the office - it's a fair price, and significantly less than I have paid at vet offices elsewhere. We usually see Dr. Dolan, but I have seen 2 other vets from the office and have never felt rushed thru the visit or not listened to. I have felt like the treatment plan takes the whole cat into consideration - age and quality of life. I have been to practices that are save at all cost and make you feel guilty if you question the cat's quality of life, and I have been to practices that say to give up at the first mention of kidney failure. If you have had elderly pets, the importance of a vet that gets it really matters. This practice has just seemed to "get it" for us. Highly recommend.

Joan Russell

I always recommend Animal General when someone asks me. Been with them through two dogs and they are always thorough and caring. Give the dogs so much love. Office is so friendly and helpful. Animals always sleeping around the office shows how comfortable they are.

Mary Aleia

D Brown

Good Vet.

Marci Mann

Wonderful group of professionals who genuinely care about your furbaby. We've been going there for decades. The vets follow your animal's case carefully and call and do outreach/education to make sure you know how to do everything (eg giving insulin shots). They discuss with you all of your options. We've had routine care visits, some serious illnesses with our pets, travel documents to be processed, and sadly cremations that they have handled with professionalism and compassion. Highly recommend.

Cicely Aronica

Dr Shea is Xena's FAVORITE DR EVER!!!! Meaghan is amazing and so is the office manager (I want to say Theresa), please forgive me. They have ALWAYS been good to me and my baby girl. I would NEVER go any where else. If you EVER have a issue with your animal, I swear by this place. They really care! My baby girl is a blue nose pitbull and they have no fear in the world thus I know she receives the proper care. I love them and they are our family...

Dr. Shea and the entire staff at Animal General are super friendly, caring, and knowledgeable. We have seen other vets at Animal General as well and have no complaints!

jonathan haff

Animal General has been taking care of my dog Murphy since he was a pup these past 8 years! They have always provided terrific care and I would recommend Animal General to any pet owner.

Arlene Karole

Animal General is AMAZING. When I found a rescue kitten just 2 weeks old not one other facility would help me. They took him in and cared for him for 6 weeks until he was 2 pounds and ready to come home. Thomas is now almost 3 years old and doing great. Since that amazing experience they provided me I quickly switched vets and now take my Emma there too! Why is AG amazing? They are most professional. The quality care they provide is superb. Their doctors credentials are excellent. I trust them. Their prices are in step with others in the neighborhood. Always helpful and warm they treat me like family. Thank you AG for your OUTSTANDING CARE and LOVE of my pets :) Arlene

Lyn Goldsmith

Fantastic practice, I'm so glad a friend recommended them. A real live saver for my problematic but beloved street cat who seems to have endless health issues.

Susan Gwertzman

I have been going to Dr. Howell and Animal General since I got my first rescue dog, Peppy in 1992. The staff at Animal General are caring and kind to me and to all my animals. They have been there for me and my dogs through the good times and tough times. I highly recommend them.

Jessie Thomas

Overall a good place but the doctors need to be available for post follow ups. The receptionists sound rushed.

Ella Williams

Very nice staff and veterinarians. Their office is nice and always clean as well. I have been taking my cat there for over a year and always receive great care.

banjo baroness

I've been a client at Animal General for at least 5 years and have nothing but good things to say about the practice and its staff. I've found the pricing to be reasonable and the staff to be compassionate. I can't imagine going anywhere else with my two cats.

Cynthia Lilley

Ever since our poodle took part in puppy play at Animal General 10 years ago, he has loved coming to Animal General. He has had a number of health issues, and through it all has been treated by terrific vets and a wonderful staff. I am so very grateful to director, Paul Howell, and his fellow veterinarians for keeping our poodle healthy and happy.

Sabrina Jiang

Erin Leigh Patterson

I love this place and tell everyone I know to take their animals here. They don't try to over-sell you on services, which is something I truly value.

Thomas Mastronardi

Marcia Menter

A good practice, with caring vets and a broad range of services. They've been very responsive to my needs.

Molly Lindenbaum

Best in the city!! The most caring, gentle people!! I recommend to everyone I know!!

Ruth Peltason

I adore Animal General. More importantly, my dog Lulu, an English Springer Spaniel, has friends there, beginning with Paul Howell, various other doctors and techs, and dear Mary, who fields my many needs with aplomb and wit. The doctors are caring and endlessly patient. We've had a long year of treating an issue with my pet and Dr. Howell's patience and steady hand has made the difference between a withering experience or one buoyed by hope. Do not hesitate to have your pet cared for at Animal General.

cynthia urbina

Jeff Chrzan

The days of the phone call check in after an appointment are all but gone but not for Dr Howell who wanted to simply check in on our pup Dr Tim Whatley who had a case of giardia. He's took great care of Whatley and follow up was kind and welcome! Love this place for their gentle care and the time spent educating us! Would recommend in a heartbeat!

Am truly grateful for the services provided to my senior dog. They were very professional and kind. Dr Wilson and staff showed genuine concern for my furry friend/ family member. I would highly recommend this facility. Thank you so very much.

I have been with Animal General for something like fifteen years. they have treated my variety of populations - dogs and cats - with compassion for both the animals and for me. Prior to being with them I used various resources including Animal Medical Center (I'm glad it's there but it's hideously expensive). But Animal General is now my go-to animal center.
