Dr. Howell is the most knowledgeable and caring vet I've ever met in my life! I have a 4 year old French bulldog who's been dealing with food and seasonal allergies since he was a puppy. We've visited many vet clinics and even got random diagnosis which helped my poor dog for few days or a week than back to zero! ONLY Dr. Howell found the remedy for my dog: he gave us a plan and we followed it.
Comprehensive physical exams performed regularly are the cornerstone to promoting a long, healthy life for your pet. Regular examinations allow us to detect early signs of illness and begin treatment before the illness has an opportunity to progress. We recognize how strong and valuable the bond between humans and pets can be and we want to maintain the strength and duration of that bond.

The staff showed compassion and sensitivity when our cat passed away. They arranged for a cremation and the price was very reasonable.

I took my Pom Teddy there....he had 2 sets of xrays.....2nd one I was told his leg was broke...I asked about 1st xray...they said they couldn't find it. I took him to another vet....he had cancer that caused the broken bone....how did yonkers not see this? We spent a few thousand there at yonkers....only to have our pet pass weeks later. I'm sorry to say....ever since Dr.Howell retired....it's not the same place. I used them for 20 years..... but don't think I will ever use them again. Very sad...used to be a good hospital. Do not use.....I think it's all-out the money now....find a privately owned

This hospital doesn't care about animals they refuse to treat my dog sent us to another hospital that was just as bad so we went to another place they received the results we called back 8days later & they told us they didn't have the results when they received it 8days ago so we called the hospital we went to & got the email results in 1min we was told the doctor would call us back but he never did. When we took my dog in we also ask to get his nails cut they charged us & didn't even cut his nails. We waited about 3hrs outside when other people would come & wait 10-20mins & get to see the doctor

This place is the worst. I should’ve taken my dog out of this vet years ago. Please do yourself a favor and find somewhere else. They will find ANY AND EVERY reason to charge you for labs and tests and medicine. Misdiagnosing a dog with seizures, practically killing him with meds he wasn’t supposed to get. Thousands down the drain for my dog to pass with no clear cut reason, no proper diagnosis, inaccurate medicine. After fishing out hundreds, you’d think they’d at least give me the decency to know what truly I could do for my dog. Wish I could give 0 stars. The vets have never been kind

The team has been responsive and respectful of our pet. They are patient and caring. We absolutely adore and respect Dr. Givan for providing the best care to our Lola. We are forever grateful.

These people are just money hungry thieves. They can care less about you or the well-being of your pet. They’ll know very well that your dog is sick and in pain but just keep recommending tests and medication to get money out of you. On top of that they don’t even have the decency to return your calls but if it’s about money they will! Pay attention to the negative reviews people leave here because they’re 100% TRUE. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone, and they’re extremely overpriced as well. Doctors and front desk need training on how to actually treat people who are going

This place killed my cat. I went to this place when my cat suddenly stoped eating, They discharged him after saying he was stable. The next day my cat died. They misdiagnosed him! That's malpractice! That place and that doctor should lose their license! Because of them I lost my companion for 13 years. No one should have to experience what I went through.

IDK what has happened to this place. Dr's. Howell and Givan are wonderful caring and compassionate people. The staff has always been caring and helpful, until lately. Early 2020 when he went for his annual was the last time I saw this great staff, however the last 2 recent visits it seemed the new people just don't care. Now to be clear this is not about the 2 Dr's. mentioned above. They are great. They need to really look at what is going on there and see how the new staff members and doctors treat patients and the feedback from the patients. I get the feeling that whoever took over the practice

Dr. Howell and Givan have been treating our dogs for the three decades we have lived here. In the last year or two they saved the lives of both of the dogs we have now and they have been terrific with our cats also. We feel blessed to have such great medical care for our pets.
