Top quality care - really great vet. We drive 20 minutes to go here because we like.rhem so much more than the local vets. Highly recommended. Beware though: parking situation is pretty rough. They will ticket in seconds. make sure you have quarters ready.

I regret bringing my yorkie here Dec 14th, the vet Dr Meglino showed his true colors when he comes to talk to me with a direct and stern attitude and when I told him I didn't like the way he was talking to me he tells me to get out. My yorkie was brought there today because she's been throwing up for 3 days and her allergies are back. So freaking unprofessional, and so is the secretary I spoke to yesterday Dec 13th. The secretary tried to interrogate me because I missed the follow up which was a week from Nov 17th. I don't have to keep explaining why I missed that appt. I did mention to the secretary

My partner and I had to take our dog in a few times. Each time Ive gone in, the experience had always been consistent. Theyre friendly, welcoming and professional. Getting to know the staffs and their fur-babies. Dr. Meglino, who have always taken care of our boy, have shown the upmost compassion. We both had the pleasure of getting to know him as well, Having heart to heart conversations, I know that we can trust this establishment. Thanks Tuckahoe Animal Hospital, for all youve done.

Dr. Doherty and Dr.Meglino are the best! Of course the staff is also awesome! I'm just a dog, but I do wag my tail when I see them. My human is like a vet for humans, and he likes them too!
