ASC has successfully found a way to magically remove most of the pain and suffering that we experience when our pets are unwell. From my first phone conversation, to the follow up calls, I was beyond impressed. The kindness, compassion, and genuine care for my dog that they showed were overwhelming. I felt so comfortable leaving my little girl with them for surgery. I hope never to have to go there again, but would do so without hesitation should the medical need arise. Big hugs, and sloppy doggy kisses, from a very grateful dog and her mom

Recently, we saw Dr. McCue for a neurological consultation for our Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. We were able to get an appointment quickly, and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. Dr. McCue was not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also patient and kind. We felt listened to and confident in the care our dog received.

My kitten Ozzy had been experiencing severe daily seizures. Dr. Sarah Gutierrez (neurologist) is one of the best doctors I have ever seen for my pet. She explains everything in fine detail, takes her time, and extremely compassionate. Her communication with me has been absolutely incredible and she puts my mind at ease. Ozzy was having daily seizures before meeting Dr. G and he was already under the care of a different neuro. One visit with Dr. Gutierrez and he was seizure free. Ozzy ended up getting an MRI and throughout that whole scary process (as an owener), Dr. G and her amazing team updated me every step of the way and gave Ozzy so much love. I truly can not express how thankful I am for Dr. Gutierrez and neurology team. Technician Valerie was so kind and compassionate, and explained discharge in detail. There was an other tech (i am not sure of her name) who was amazing and also updated me along the way. As a Licensed Veterinary Technician myself (and a crazy cat owner), I completely trust Dr. G and her team and I am so grateful that Ozzy is in there care ❤️ I would 1000% recommend there team. - Stefanie, LVT

🙏🏻 Hoping whoever has to come here gets to have the same great experience as I did. Friendly staff from the front desk to the nurses to the doctors. I barely had to wait and they helped my baby Maltese when I didn’t know what to do. I’d gladly pay double of what I paid for the great job and service they provided for me and my Maltese. My Maltese gave birth 5 days prior my ER visit to 3 puppies and started to lose energy, seemed to be in discomfort, trembling, moaning in pain, and not eating her food. I took her to this place because it was the closest one around and let me say they did an outstanding job explaining what they can do to help and what I need to do after we left to help treat the issue. I payed a fee up front and they put me in a room and a nurse came in to ask questions. Nurse took my puppy and information to bring to the doctor. Doctor came back shortly after explaining my puppy has eclampsia and is low on calcium and nutrition along with a bunch of other things. All in all great service, great doctors that turned my horrible day into a better one. Yes I payed a up front emergency service fee. Yes they did mention the total price befor they did any treatment and I see nothing wrong with that because I’m sure people might skip on the bill after treatment or fight and argue about the price. Nothing in life is free. I’d gladly pay double for this type of service. They even put a cute little hair tie on her when she was returned. Thank you Animal Specialty Center for helping my puppy “Sky” 🙏🏻 .

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I want to take a moment to truly thank everyone at Animal Specialty Center for the amazing care they gave my cat, Oreo. It took me a long time to finally write this — since Easter Sunday last year — mostly because of a combination of sadness and work, but I felt it was important to come back and express my gratitude. From the moment we arrived, the staff treated Oreo with compassion, dignity, and genuine kindness. During one of the hardest moments of my life, they made sure he was comfortable and surrounded by care. Their professionalism and empathy meant more to me than words can express. Losing Oreo was incredibly painful, but I’m thankful he was in such loving hands during his final moments. The entire team showed true humanity, patience, and respect — not just to my pet, but to me as well. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants their beloved pet cared for by people who truly understand how deep that bond is. Thank you again for everything you did for Oreo and for helping me through such a difficult goodbye.

Dr Sarah Gutierrez was awesome. She explained everything in detail and made sure that I understood everything she was saying. I everything went smoothly and I was able to take my dog home after her MRI. She seems to be doing better. I like that their follow up calls are part of their program. All and all I would certainly recommend them to anyone who needs a neurologist for their pet.👍

My puppy was in great pain with an obvious hind leg problem. She was seen by the neurologist, Dr Sarah Gutierrez. She is excellent. Maggie was given pain meds, placed on IV fluids & remained overnight. She was seen by the orthopedic surgeon, Dr Tsio the next morning. She was excellent too. Great team! They listened and clearly explained everything to me. Maggie was diagnosed with a pulled/strained leg muscle that went into the groin. She was released the next day with meds and at home care instructions. All the doctors, technicians and the reception staff were professional, knowledgeable, helpful, caring, & very friendly. My Maggie received excellent care and a lot of love. I highly recommend Yonker's Animal Speciality Center.

My dog Lulu had radiation treatment here for her nasal carcinoma with Dr. Rosen and Dr. Karten. They are both second to none. The staff is also lovely and welcoming (special shout-outs to Karina and Victoria!) This is exactly the environment we needed during a rough time. Lulu had a follow up with them this week and she is doing really well! I am grateful for the care, compassion and patience they have shown to her and her very nervous mom. I live in Brooklyn and chose ASC over Animal Medical Center in Manhattan. Making the multiple hour trips is well worth it for the personal attention and the outpouring of love they show for my girl. I just love them. Full stop.

I love this place every one there love what they do and it shows. From the time I walked in with my dog Cosmo I was welcomed and respected by every staff member there. My Cosmo was originally Dxed with syringomyelia by Whieplains animal hospital, but MRI ( Very expensive) but the financial team worked with me, and it showed differently with ASC; Dr Gutierrez discovered he has a devated disc (C3) in his spine; she then took her next step to treat him for his Excursiating pain it hurt for him to walk. He is know a happy dog pain free. I knew my dog was in good hands once I left him there for 6 hours. Animal specialty told me the entire time he's here you can call as much as you want don't worry about being a bother your baby is here. I ❤️ ALL of you andnI can't stress it out enough. I would highly recommend the place for your fur babies. You can take you family member in for ER and they'll treat it as such.

The staff is so welcoming and helpful. Dr. Karten was so nice and explained the whole situation about my dog (my grandpup) and how procedure would be performed. Went home with discharge papers about recovery from procedure and explained the treatment plan. I know my dog is in good hands here and it gives me hope we made so many friends with Dog parents there and the poor dogs that are sick there my dog has made friends with Hudson and others, and we can’t forget Mia who sits at the front desk and welcomes us with a little bark ❤️ I feel the love & hope . It comforted me !
