Preventive care

Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.

I've taken my cat here a couple of times - once for a general check-up after I got her, and once for a little tummy issue. The staff is very nice and professional, the facitlity is clean, communication is clear (and at no point have I felt like someone was trying to sell me something that my pet didn't need). Very grateful to have found this little gem of a vet clinic - thanks so much to everyone!

My recent visit and exchange with Greenwood Vet Care with my dog was courteous, prompt, informative, and proactive toward next steps in a clear organized way. The receptionist who handled my initial call, the vet assistant/tech who asked check up questions about my dog, and the veterinarian who explained conditions and care - they were all approachable and kind. The vet tech suggested purchasing a tooth paste online and the vet explained follow up options kindly.

Everyone is so helpful and my dogs are treated so well. Love the follow up emails. We've seen different doctors here and theyve all been really nice. Their other location at Bensonhurst is just as amazing.

I cannot say enough good things about Greenwood Veterinary Care. They took amazing care of my cat who needed several teeth extracted. Thank you to the entire team!

On June 28th I took my Shorkie Morocco to Greenwood veterinary clinic to be neutered. He was 16 months old and the epitome of good health. After surgery he came home in discomfort and was given medication to help with pain along with antibiotics. Morocco at 1st seemed to be getting better and yet we noticed a decrease in his appetite and he seemed very lethargic. We returned to the veterinarian and we were told he had a low grade fever and they administered fluids. He came home with more antibiotics which we attempted to give him to no avail. Our dog continued to get sick and we were told to take him to the ER upon the doctors recommendation. Once we got there we were told he was in bad shape with bloody stools and they did an ultrasound that revealed that he had severe liver and pancreas damage ! Our dog was healthy and fine two weeks prior and now is no longer with us. Had we been told that neutering should have been done earlier we would’ve never went through with this and now our beloved Morocco is dead! Never will I recommend nor ever take my pet here again. I’m grieving terribly and no condolences will change the fact that they were in part responsible for the passing of my dog!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s beyond me how the doctor could not give us any clear explanation how a healthy dog two weeks ago could have severe liver and pancreas damage when the only thing that we were giving him were the antibiotics that they prescribed!!! Clearly someone dropped the ball our dog was perfectly healthy in fact how do you not been healthy they would’ve never gone through with the procedure and now days later my dog is dead!!! RIP MOROCCO ! This picture was taken a day before surgery The 2nd photo is my sweet Morocco fighting for his life in the ER and yet neither his Vet or the ER doctors can explain how a perfectly healthy dog gets severe liver and pancreatic damage in such a short time post op ! This is clearly a crime! The only person I believe who was legitimately concerned was Christine at Greenwood. I would’ve preferred that they told us not to go through with this and now he is no more.My family is deeply saddened and grieving !
