Beautiful staff and office

“I cannot believe how my dog responded to the vet techs and the vet. She felt right at home and loved the moment she walked in. I love this place. Excellent care and warm and beautiful staff and office.“

Lindsay B.

Cone-free & eye drop free!

“Dr. LoPinto and his team are awesome! When our pup had an emergency and the ulcer on his eye was getting worse, Dr. LoPinto saw us the same day our vet sent a referral. We are so grateful for their care.”

Jocelin P.

Best veterinary clinic

“This is the best veterinary clinic I have ever taken my dog too. Clean, professional, you can also tell how educated not only the doctor was but even the staff.“


Elie A.

Medicine is outstanding

“I have taken my dog to 4 different ophthalmologists, and Dr. LoPinto and the staff at VEC of NYC are absolutely the best. The staff are all incredibly warm and inviting, and were very sweet with my dog.”

Amanda R.

Amazing

“We had a wonderful experience at this office. From my initial phone call, the front desk staff was so kind and was able to accommodate us for a same day appointment which I really appreciated given my concern.”

Alexandria C.
