Preventive care

The building is very clean and the interior is simple. Ever rooms is so clean and organized. The exam rooms are hygienic and I felt safe taking my fur babies there. Dr. Kendra Kaufman is amazing! She always listens to me and very clear explanations of treatment. The staff are all very friendly! I highly recommend it here!

These people are just about the nicest you can find! Dr Kaufman took care of a foundling kitten I picked up. She made space for a same-day appointment, and everyone there that day was SO NICE and welcoming! And they have been that way for each visit so far. I like them so much that I'm switching our other cat to their care. Even the kitten (Axel Rose) comes out of her kennel in the exam room, unafraid, and looks for treats when we get there! I feel like an unafraid kitty at a vet clinic is a true testament to their kindness, gentleness, and patience! I highly recommend this practice. 💜 (And so does Axel! After and before pictures included for tax)

We are excited & relieved that Dr. Kaufman has opened this new clinic with her partner. We waited & followed she & Jesse from another clinic. We trust them, love the compassion & follow through with every need or question we have. Our dogs love them too! ♥️🙌🏻

AMAZING care during such a difficult situation! Our fur baby dog (Buster) stopped using his left hind leg. We were seen by another vet clinic in NLR who didn’t even do an exam or discuss a plan, just gave us a few pills for inflammation. A few hours after that vet visit, he was not using either hind legs. Instead of return to the previous vet clinic, I had a gut feeling to try Somers Avenue Animal Clinic. We were greeted with kindness, compassion, and knowledge. Dr. Kaufman and her team did a thorough exam and discussed & involved us each step of the way while gathering medical background & listening to us as we were worried for the worst. They set Buster up on a rest/recover protocol, and a medication regimen. Within less than 4 days, he was back to himself distributing weight on all his legs equally. We were prepared for the worst because our Buster has never been hurt or sick. Dr. Kaufman and her team knew exactly what to do all while showing empathy and outstanding care. We have a follow up appointment this week and plan to make Buster a permanent patient at Somers Avenue Animal Clinic.

I called to see if they had any availability to get my cat in to be seen today due to some emergency issues. The lady (and I'm being nice) actually LAUGHED at me. I have been calling around everywhere to get my poor baby boy seen because he is truly having issues. Just to state my concern and be laughed at. I understand being extremely busy but to be laughed at while I'm worried something could be very wrong with my Milo boy. There's not a single vet that will take my cat right now and I'm worried sick about him and all this place can do is laugh.
