I received a notice from my old vet in Queens that my Maltese dog, Flake, was due for her annual exam, DA2PPL ,Lymes, Corona, Bordatella and Rabies vaccine. Since I now live in Greenpoint, at the recommendation of a neighbor, I took Flake to the Northside Vet Clinic for her visit. I was very happy with the advice, care, and concern shown towards Flake and myself. My old vet always looked her over and then gave her the shots, without really discussing ways to make her healthier with diet or supplements. This place was different. The Dr there (I think it was Dr Eisner ) really examined her, called the other vet in to look at her teeth, took some tests, and spent a lot of time talking about her food and ways I could help her painful knees.\r
She really cared. Yes it cost a little more than if I had just gotten her shots, but since I was TALKED OUT OF GIVING HER ALL THE VACCINES, it was only a little more than usual. Totally worth it.\r
Next month I will get her teeth taken care of:; I finally found a vet I can trust, who cares, and is on the same page as I am.
Pros: thorough, caring vet. Clean facility, called the next day with results of tests
Cons: small waiting room
