East Village Animal Clinic

I was very pleased to learn that Dr. Meltzer was now the owner of East Village Animal Clinic. I was a customer when it was the Village Veterinarians. My little cat Annabelle is 14+ and quite skittish! Thankfully, she was in excellent hands! All good for now and I thank Dr. Meltzer and his entire staff! 👏👏👏

I came with two 8 week old nervous feral kittens. We had a wonderful experience with the entire staff.

I was going to the Village Veterinarian for over 10 plus years before Dr Moscovich retired the practice. Since 2024/2025, the business got sold to private equity, the experience has genuinely been atrocious. My last visit here was fine even though there's zero personalization — they don't try to study before the visits, the vets barely remember them, so they are asking you about the chart — but then when they called me for the Booster appointment reminder and asked me (the pet owner), "what boosters are she coming in for", I kind of lost it. As a pet owner, I'm pretty good at remembering such things and keeping track but why is the Vet asking me all the medical inquiries. They really lost me as a customer here.

Terrible customer service (May 2026). I took both of my cats to this clinic a year ago for regular check-up and vaccination. The visit was fine and the vets/receptionists were kind and helpful. I was specifically looking to support a small business in the neighborhood I just moved to. One of my cats is on a prescription diet and his food is up for renewal. I called in to ask if they would do a one-time courtesy renewal, before his next appointment and was rudely informed NO, because he's 2 weeks overdue for his annual checkup (mind, no appointment call or reminder was received). Absolutely ridiculous. I will be bringing my business to a new veterinary clinic with better people/customer service skills.

I'm so glad I found Dr. Meltzer and East Village Animal Clinic for my baby! He explains things in ways that makes sense and the staff is super knowledgeable and very gentle. You can definitely tell they care about the animals they see. The front desk young lady is super bubbly and friendly, and makes you feel like they are they just for you and your pet.I believe her name is Carrian. I will definitely recommend this clinic to anyone who needs honest and reasonable priced vet care!
