I made a reservation for my cat's neuter over the phone. They don't give you the realistic price range if you ask them. They will give you the minimum range so that you get to make a reservation. What they asked me in person was 6 times more expensive than what they gave me over the phone. It's ridiculously OVERPRICED. Now im just gonna go back to the vet in upper west side where I used to go before I moved to here.
We won't take our pets anywhere else. We have two cats - one elderly with many health problems and one obese with many personality problems. We went to another vet in the neighborhood for a while and they continued to misdiagnose both cats, even going so far as to perform unnecessary surgery on one. Thankfully, about three years ago we found Clinton Hill Animal Clinic. They properly diagnosed both cats, put the elderly cat on medicine that works. And they are SO, SO nice. Everyone remembers our cats, they stop by to say hi to both us and the kitties when we come in. We've recently moved far out of the neighborhood, but continue to bring our cats here. I honestly can't think if a single negative thing to say about Clinton Hill Animal Clinic and I would not hesitate to recommend them to other pet owners.
This is my first experience as an adult in dealing with a veterinary office but find Dr. Dentler and her staff to be very caring, professional and attentive. Services are pricey but not having any present day references we bite the bullet because we do know our dog is getting great care.
Dr. Dendtler and her impeccable staff saved our dog’s life. This is an incredible and moving story of what separates an experienced, attentive healer from any well-trained clinician, so we’ll start from the beginning. We moved away from NYC two years ago, but continue to return to Dr. D for routine care for our aging, but healthy and happy family dog, Toots. When Toots had a rapid-onset loss of appetite and lethargy, we took her to a local vet, and then on to an Emergency and Specialty care facility. She was admitted with a fever over 105, high enough to put her at risk for severe blood clotting and organ failure. We could not identify any toxin she may have ingested, and started on intravenous fluids and antibiotics to try and bring the fever down, in addition to a spattering of diagnostics. Of course we reached out to Dr. Dendtler, who was immediately all-in via frequent phone consultations, conferring with the emergency vets, and patiently explaining Toots’ condition to us in terms we could actually understand. After almost 3 days of intravenous medication, her fever was not coming down, and we were caught between pressure from the local emergency vets to perform invasive tests, and frustration that Toots continued to suffer a dangerous fever. Dr. Dendtler literally pleaded with these vets to exhaust all therapies to bring down the fever and get some food in her, like external cooling and gentle oral feeding through a syringe. These were no doubt well-trained clinicians with access to the most modern diagnostics and cancer treatments, but their solution for a high fever was to aim a fan at our sick dog. We wanted Toots out of there, and Dr. Dendtler told us that she’ll be with us all the way while we nursed Toots at home with non-invasive therapies the emergency vets assured us ‘wouldn’t amount to a hill of beans.’ Well, Dr. Dendtler was true to her word, and coached us through tepid baths every 2 hours, special high-calorie ‘milkshakes,’ temperature monitoring, in addition to ol’ fashioned tender loving care, and Toots’ fever fell to normal after 3 days of being home. It was a moving experience for my partner and I to nurse our helpless, sick, sweet dog back to health and vitality. Dr. Dendtler continues to check-in with us every week -- like she said in the beginning, she’s “with us for the long haul.” A caring and thoughtful doctor is truly a healer, and we are so grateful to Dr. D and her supportive staff. Her approach to medicine is both patient and decisive, from years of experience and practice, and she is truly a healer and beloved part of the Brooklyn community.
I've been going to this vet for about a year and a half now. I never had stellar service from the admin staff but at least they were consistent. The biggest issue I had was that my dog was the size of their waiting room - but that was the biggest issue until today. I need to get heartworm pills for my dog. I ordered them 2 weeks ago well in advance of the him needing them - I didn't anticipate any delays as he was testing 6 months ago. For some reason i kept hitting a snag with the vet and the dispensing company. I called this Vet yesterday to find out what the issue was and the receptionist basically called me a liar about whether or not my dog has been on heartwom pills consistently. I had to have the vet call me back who agreed that my math added up. The admin also took the opportunity to yell and badger me for no reason while she was discussing my the amount of months since last dispensing. But all was well and the Vet agreed to sign off. Today I get a call from the dispensing company saying that there is an issue and I need to call my vet again. The same combative crazed admin is on the phone. She explains that the weight from my order and what they have on file doesn't check out. I tell her that my dogs weight fluctuates throughout the year but that it was within the guidelines for what I had ordered. Like another reviewer here, I am not buying Oxycontin people and if anyone has put my dog in danger its the administrative troll that is answering the phone. Its now two weeks later and my dog is behind. She then tells me that I need to have my dog re-weighed in order to move forward. She again calls me a liar about my dogs weight and continues to badger me and refused to listen to the reason behind the weight which was that I had picked a range per the product when I placed the order. I remind her as I explained to the vet the day before that I no longer live near them (nor any vet) and that its just extremely difficult to get a 200lb dog around not to mention costly and not to mention impossible after a natural disaster that has resulted in gas rationing wherein there is scarce car service for humans. I had already paid for the test this year and was refusing to be nickle and dimed by them again. At this point she was screaming at me and not listening to anything I had to say - there was no reasoning with this idiot - and this Vet has lost me as a client forever.
