Great in an emergency
by clinds
On Friday night at 7pm my dog's condition went from uncomfortable to emergency in the space of one hour. I called several vets who were unable/unwilling to see her at that last hour. I got to Lenox Hill Vets and explained the situation and they simply said "bring her in...now". In we went and indeed she had to be hospitalised as she was so ill. But, Dr. Putter and his staff were not only wonderful with her they were wonderful with me.
Two days later she came home is on the mend. I have had two follow up calls from Lenox Hill "just checking". I do not hesitate to highly recommend them.
Pros: People sooooo wonderful
Cons: general NYC costs are high

I happily Take My Dog Here...
by MargaretSiciliano
I have been taking my dog here for two years now. During that time, he has had his share of stomach troubles and eye infections, and he always receives great care and treatment from the doctor. When I take him for his annual exam with Dr. Klein, the vet has me come back again for a second appointment (free of charge) because he doesn't like to give the dog too many shots/vaccinations at one time.
Overall I am really happy with all of vets I have seen here and I would recommend Lenox Hill Vets to anyone.
Pros: Friendly and professional doctors and staff

Our turtle got hurt by our dog. So we took her to Lennox hill and they took super good care of her. They also gave me tips on how to take care of her. They are the best vets I have ever been to. I totaly would tell my friends and family about it and to take there animals there.
Pros: Very attentive!!! Very loving of all animals. Not super expensive. And will talk to you over the phone about problems and concerns you may have.
Cons: Parking (but its close the the train-take the train)

Very attentive vets!
by nyrmm
I took my very sick cat here, after speaking with a few emergency vets over the weekend, who all told me my cat would be fine. I brought him into Lenox hill and immediately they rushed him downstairs and saved his life - they told me 1 more hour and he would have been dead. They kept me updated all week, as he made a miraculous recovery and was returned to me better than ever! This vet is a wonderful place, and I've had nothing but great experiences...a little on the pricey side, but if your animal is as important to you as mine is, it's worth it!
Pros: Very Friendly, knowledgeable doctors, great office staff, clean facility, caring techs
Cons: pricey, peak hours sometimes difficult to get last minute appointment

Wonderful veterinarian
by morgan1520
On our first visit here we brought our very sick golden retriever in for emergency help. Dr. Putter was caring and concerned and made us feel that she was in the very best of hands. Everyone we spoke to from our initial call to the vet's assistants were kind. Thanks to them and their quick action, we still have her with us and for that we are eternally grateful. Jennifer Anderson
Pros: Excellent care

GREAT HOSPITAL, wish they treated people.
by michaelvp
Remarkeable place. Kind, compassionate, truly sincere and caring doctors and staff.
Everybody bent over backwards to take care of Sammy. He was so ill and we thought this was going to be it but once again (2nd time) they worked a miracle. Thank You Dr. Putter.
Pros: great staff., knowledgeable, committed Doctors

Saved my Dog's Life!!!!
by jasonmc
What's with the negative reviews by anonymous people???? It's like grafiti outside on the street. Sounds like bitter apples. I'm proud to say that the Doctors are all very knowledgeable at Lenox Hill Veterinarians. They saved tyson my boxer. Excellent hospital. Friendly, courteous, efficient staff. Very responsive to our needs. I've been to other vets. Kept hearing good things about this hospital and when we were disappointed with care given at another Manhattan hospital (which I won't name) we were referred here. They were warm, caring, concerned and immediately took care of Tyson. I'm forever grateful and glad that in such a city I can still find that kind of service. I can't stress enough how happy we are to have them take care of Tyson. Thank You Dr McLellan, Dr Pigman (who by the way has a Boxer) and Dr Putter. You are all so excellent. Jason McDougle.
Pros: great service, Nice hospital, Love the staff

Great doctors and staff
by mran
My dog was on deaths door. After having been to several other vet clinics I was referred to Lenox Hill Veterinarians. Great staff, warm and friendly and professional. The Doctors are caring and knowledgeable. They saved his life and we are both in their debt. I so recommend this hospital. Mark

Cons: not inexpensive

Terrible
by wweisenb
The vet that I went to see was absolutely terrible. He did nothing but try to make me feel stupid, refuse to listen a word I had to say and then misdiagnosed my dog. Upon taking her to another vet, after using up the medicine he gave me and seeing no signs of improvement in the dog, my pup was diagnosed as I and several other people expected, given proper medication and has shown signs of improvement in a few days.
Pros: Pleasant receptionist
Cons: Veterinarians, Business, Customer Service

Awful
by leetay
My cat and I did not have that great of an experience at the Lenox Animal Hospital. The doctor who treated my cat and is now recently the new owner of the practice was very rude, and unprofessional.

Great Vet
by Katjh80
I took my cat here and having just moved to the city, I was nervous to try a new vet. I was very pleased with the vet who looked at my cat and everyone was very nice and professional. I will definitely be bringing my cat back here and I know he will be in good hands.
Pros: clean, nice, professional
