I worked at a vet's office in Brooklyn and saw some mighty shameful things happening, so when it was time for my cat to get to the vet, I looked around like a madwoman to find the best one in Brooklyn. Speaking with friends who had also worked in vet's offices, it is sad but true that many vets re-use supposedly sterile things, have people who were once a vet in Peru but not in the US do surgery to save costs, and beat dogs into submission rather than train them. I was recommended to Animal Kind from quite a few people, and I can say that I've been nothing but thrilled with their service, cleanliness, and technology. Sure, vet trips are expensive, but I'd rather pay hefty fees to an establishment that is legit, rather than these shady ass vets scattered around Brooklyn. I've since moved to Astoria and I'll still make the trip out to Park Slope rather than switch vets.
