We had a great first experience with my new puppy Juno. No complaints. Front desk staff were very attentive, polite, and accommodating to us to get him a sooner appointment due to having an ear infection. Doctors were knowledgeable, patient, affectionate and gentle with my puppy. They also helped him to feel as comfortable as possible through his first time getting a thorough cleaning of his ears and check up. He left there being his normal self, happy and energetic with take home treatment. I appreciate the service we received.

These incredible vets took care of our cats for five straight years, and they are legitimately the best vets I've ever had in ten years of cat ownership. They're knowledgeable, caring, and diligent; they give you exactly the info you need without trying to sell you on expensive treatments just for the sake of them (something I definitely cannot say for every vet!!) and most importantly they just all care so, so much about the animals in their care. I'm actually deeply sad to be moving away from them, and they're going to be the gold standard of vet care for me going forward. Consistent, reliable, caring–y'all are just the best!

Prospect Park Animal Clinic is a wonderful practice! We appreciated that they intervened effectively but also did not over-treat. We cannot recommend them highly enough.

Coming back from vacation my regular vet close to home wouldn’t accommodate my 16 year old dog who wasn’t eating and had digestive issues. She had been to see Nick Silverman DVM once before and I’d had a great experience then. So while they were also booked up, the vet called me back and worked my dog in. He was very responsive, attentive and sincere. Another (female) vet from the office (also very knowledgeable) followed up with my dog’s blood test results and the all the staff including the vet techs were friendly and on top of everything. They run a great caring family practice, something that’s hard to find these days in NYC. Advice and remedy’s have been right on - not too much or too little. Highly recommend.

We’ve been bouncing between different vet chains in the area since we rescued our 13 year old Yorkie in 2020. I was becoming disillusioned as Bond Vet and Animal Kind were more focused on charging your card than counseling or discussing care; they both suggested expensive diagnostics that totally distracted from the main issue our dog had: his behavior changed likely due to Dementia—CCD. When our pup stopped eating, I called PPAC. The receptionist thoughtfully listened to my concerns and she was able to squeeze us in an appointment despite their overbooked schedule. Dr. N Silverman had exceptional bedside manner and let us be present in the room during the entire exam and eval—which the other vets never allowed since 2020. I am a medical professional myself and he answered all my questions in a professional and thorough manner offering sensible options and reasonable alternatives. He also took the time to discuss end of life care anticipating when the time may come… Overall, I appreciated the small business attentiveness and rational-humane approach that is so hard to find these days. We will not go anywhere else in the future.
