Veterinarians near North Bergen

“We felt like it was best to let our beloved cat Marshie of 19 years go peacefully in his bed at home. I am very grateful for Dr. Nieto and home heart vets for providing their services directly to our home. They even reached out afterwards to share their condolences which meant a lot to us. Thank you again“

“Easy booking process and everyone at the office was caring & pleasant. Dr. Sremac was quite knowledgeable and clearly explained the purpose of the required tests. I have difficulty walking and people went out of their way to help me enter & exit the office. Very positive experience.“

“I was bracing for exorbitant costs for a routine mature lady cat checkup. Dr Ball was really nice, patient, and reasonable. She is also a very good educator and I think all pet parents would benefit from all her helpful advice and care. The staff, as usual, were kind and friendly. I was quite pleased with the appointment. The experience made me want to come back and have Dr Ball keep taking care of Mochi to provide the best quality of life for the cat. Thank you!“

“Becoming pet parents for the first time and trying to make sure he is receiving the best vet care was unnerving. However, once we found Veterinaire Pet Care our concerns were put to rest. The staff is organized, knowledgable and takes care of their pet patients.“

“The doctors and crews are amazing, showing cares of your little one. I’ve been recommended by friends. Thank you for the kindness and support.“

“I've been going to Veterinary Care Group - Middle Village (Antillys prior to that) for 25+ years. The amazing ladies at the desk, vet techs, and doctors are all professional, caring, and go above and beyond to assist in every way. My cat is a little feisty, but Dr. Ivanoff knows how to handle him; secretly, I think Hanky likes him! Hanky has health issues, and Dr. Ivanoff has been there for us every step of the way to provide guidance and support - he truly loves his patients! Thank you to everyone at Vet Care Group!“

“The front-desk staff is welcoming, informative, courteous and efficient. Dr. Julia Barnhart, who examined my cat, was knowledgeable, caring, and forthcoming with her time and attention. I couldn't have asked for better.“

“The staff is great. The doctors are very caring and take the time to answer all your questions and concerns. Provide excellent care for what is needed. Genuine group of people and professionals whose priority is the well being of our animals.“

“The team took wonderful care of our dog and did a fantastic job on her teeth. She was treated like a little queen and came home happy and comfortable. Highly recommend!“

“We’ve gone to the Tenafly Vet Center for over 20yrs. The vets and staff are always compassionate and very professional. We’re so glad they’re so close to where we live!“

“- Excellent doctors (recommend Dr. Bassman), excellent techs, excellent front office staff, excellent management. No exceptions, which is rare.
- Facility is kept immaculate without feeling sterile.
- Very transparent pricing.
- Their “Fear Free” handling can really make a difference, especially for older or vulnerable cats that can actually get sicker from stress.
- Management and staff have always been responsive to even minor feedback.
- Handling of insurance is seamless. Never have to even think about it.

After 5+ years of having 3 cats at Heart of Chelsea (2 routine/healthy cats, one who went through an uncommon illness) we couldn’t be happier and have never been disappointed.

It’s a 25 minute trip for us, but easily worth it.

If you want to keep a healthy pet healthy, or have excellent, expert care for an aging or ill pet, I highly recommend Heart of Chelsea.

Thanks Carlos, Rebecca, Dr. Bassman & Adrianna!“

“My first experience at GVH was years ago with my cat, and it was great—super nice staff. Now I have three dogs, and we’ve already visited twice. I truly trust this place because they take excellent care of my dogs. The clinic is clean, cozy, and very welcoming. That’s all that matters to me.“

“Made a last minute appointment, everyone was so nice and accommodating in the office, Marissa at the front desk, the assistant John and Dr G. They made my dog feel so comfortable and calmed his nerves right away. Excellent staff, thank you“

“My dog and I had a great experience here! All of the staff were friendly and welcoming. The facility was very clean. My dog is quite anxious and they were so patient with her and tried to make her feel comfortable. Dr. Coronato is very kind and thorough. You can tell she really wants the pups and kitties to be healthy. I am so glad I found this clinic.“

“Can't say enough good things about my experience here.

Before coming into Pure Paws last week, I was going to Ivy Pets in Tribecca where I had some bad experiences. Previously, I paid over $1000 to take an unnecessary X-ray where I had to wait over 24 hours for results. At Pure Paws, they saw my dog Jack immediately and I received results / analysis for his X-ray in minutes.

Additionally, for his visit, X-ray, and medication I paid just over $600, far less for way better service. Also, everyone was extremely nice and helpful and Curly at the front desk even left me with some nice gifts for Jack at the end of my visit. Will definitely be making this my new clinic for Jack.“

“My sweet cat was not feeling well, and I just moved so I didn't know where to get really loving and supportive kitty care. I was also unable to take him in myself. My partner brought him in, and he was seen by Dr. Canales. I was on speakerphone as she discussed options, pricing, and follow up. Even though I couldn't be there, I felt so comforted and grateful that we chose this veterinary office. I am so pleased with her attention to detail, how kind and informative she is, and I'm grateful to have found the right place for both of my boys. I hope never to have an emergency situation again. I do look forward to continuing with follow up and preventative medical care.
Thank you so much, Dr. Canales. You are a gem.“

“We found Dr. Solomon last summer. Our first visit was for our cat, Loki, to be neutered. I was impressed with how much time Doctor Solomon took with us to explain everything during the consultation. Much different atmosphere than my previous vet. Everything also went great with the neutering and the cost was very affordable. Our second visit was with my senior dog, who after having a couple bad experiences at the previous vet was a little skittish of the vet and they were no longer even able to get blood work from her without her whining and crying. This is a dog that doesn’t typically cry over anything. Dr. Solomon took this into consideration, shaved the area, used calming petting and other techniques to keep her calm and was able to get blood. All the vet techs at the office genuinely love animals and you can tell they love their job. We have recently had some health scares with Loki and Dr. Solomon has been so good at explaining everything and giving us options. He’s always also given multiple options for a treatment when possible in case cost is a factor. His front desk staff is very professional and friendly. I am so glad that we found Bronx County animal Hospital. We plan on continuing bringing our present and future furry children to him!“

“Very happy with the care & service we receive - long time customer and hope to continue working with Riverside for years to come!“

“I drive 27 mins and would not go any where else for my dog's needs. They treat my dog like a prince. All the staff here are very professional and so friendly.“

“After months of trying to treat my cat’s strange breathing problems and more recent Horner’s syndrome, I took my cat here for an internal medicine consult with Dr. Ferreri and Alyssa. They were both deeply kind and courteous. They thoroughly examined and explained the existing documentation + considered all the possibilities given my boy’s medical history. Best yet, they explained the reasoning behind treatment decisions both past and present. I found this last bit very reassuring (in spite of my chronic worries as a pet parent). If you’re in doubt, don’t be!! This is definitely the place.“

“I brought my beloved dog Vanna to be put to sleep on June 7th to Meadowlands Veterinary Hospital . Vanna was 17 years old and was completely blind. Her blindness didn't stop her from being physically active and she was always on the move. Unfortunately there were other issues which made it impossible for Vanna to continue being active. Vanna was seen by Dr Meza. She was so patient with me and gave me all the time I needed to hold Vanna and cry and just say goodbye to my little beautiful baby. I didn't feel pressured at all. Dr Meza explained the entire procedure to me and told me when I was ready to let Vanna go to let her know. I was holding Vanna when she passed. I wept so much but I truly felt it was the best thing I could do for my sweet girl. I would definitely recommend Dr Meza or Dr Marteney. The medical staff who assist the vets and the front desk Sasha Maria Selena are all great. Thank you Dr Meza for your compassion and patience I truly appreciat“

“I have had a great experience with their staff and doctors, i feel very comfortable with them.“

“Honestly this place is expensive, but vet care has always been that way but it’s so much more here. I have been calling nonstop because my little baby has been sick. I have never met such a compassionate team. Dr.Fracapane is so understanding and thorough, always explaining everything so I don’t get confused. Wendy is extremely patient and kind, listening to me complain and the nonstop questions. They both speak to you as a friend, not just a customer with sweet soft voices(you come to appreciate this when your dog is going through a rough patch). There is not a price I would not pay to get this kind of service. I cannot recommend Heart of Chelsea enough, thank you for all you do.“

“I brought my cat in for a first visit with Dr. Nunemacher and she was incredible! She was incredibly kind and went above and beyond to answer my questions and share important details with me about an issue my cat is having. THANK YOU

July 2025 Follow Up- One day before my wedding, my cat was having issues. Dr. Onderdonk and the entire team went above and beyond to help my cat the day before and the day of the wedding. There are no words for my gratitude!! Thank you :)

February 2026- All creatures is absolutely the best. Everyone who works here is so patient and kind. Dr. Nunemacher has gone above and beyond helping me us take care of my cat who has a decreased appetite and talking me through everything every step of the way. THANK YOU“

“We love PSVC. They took such incredible care of our beloved dog.
After 16 years of an amazing life, we had to put our dog down. PSVC made us (including our two kids) feel so comfortable, didn’t rush us, and the vet and techs really were just the kindest, sweetest people. We’re eternally grateful to them. Thanks so much for honoring Smokey’s life with us. ?“

“doctor Goldstein and his staff are such wonderful and professional people and they truly love ❤️ animals!“
