Animal Clinic of Bayonne

Recently we adopted two kittens from the shelter. One became very sick with a high fever. I was given an immediate appointment during the Christmas holiday, we were received warmly and compassionately, and they took our little baby immediately. They were gentle, caring, and accommodating to our emotions and our kitten's illness.

He is home now and thriving. We are very appreciative and grateful to have the staff and doctors at the Animal Clinic of Bayonne.

Highly recommend!!!

A+++

I highly recommend the Animal Clinic of Bayonne - I wish I had brought my dog Jill here sooner. I called to schedule an appointment and they fit me in within 24 hours - though I may have been lucky because the Animal Clinic is on the smaller side for animal hospitals :)

Dr. Horton was fantastic. She was extremely gentle and thorough while examining Jill and she took her time explaining what I needed to do and when. I feel like I have "discovered" a hidden gem for my dog and all of her needs :).

The entire team here is clearly passionate about providing the best and meticulous care, which really puts this facility in my best of the best category :)!!!!

Worst Animal Clinic Ever.

I gave them the benefit of the doubt after misspelling two of my cats names on their records, but after two incidents with these "veterinarians" I am sad to say they have lost my business.

First, I bring my cat in for furballs. There is no discussion on what to do or what to use. They tell me they will give him a "laxative" that will help with digestion. "Laxative" in this case being petroleum jelly.

Then today, even more terrible communication on their part. I come in for a yearly checkup. The vet there tells me that my cat needs REQUIRED vaccinations. I get the vaccinations done, and it costs over $150!!!!! I ask why there was no requirement for vaccination expressed on the yearly checkup postcard they sent me, and I the response FROM THE SAME VETERINARIAN is "Oh well these are only recommended, not required."

My diabetic cat had one mishap at this vet, but overall they really care deeply for each pet. I remember Dr. Reed warming new born kittens in his overcoat as he tended to the needs of my diabetic cat. And Pam at the front desk as well as one of the administering vets was empathetic when I had to put down a rescued cat. I am switching my vet from Staten Island to Bayonne's Animal clinic because if there's an emergency, I know I can count on them. And today happens to be one of those situations. My Staten Island vet, Bandfield Animal Hospital didn't have time, can you believe it? Thanks to good ole Bayonne vets who are more interested in helping pets than their corporate schedule.

The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Not a long wait. They truly care about the well being of each animal. It is well worth the money.
