My dogs and cats and I had a good experience at Yonkers. The staff is so warm and caring toward the pets. The vet explains what is going on and what the aftercare procedures should be.\r more

Editorial review from Citysearch 5/16/2013

The vets here have always been straightforward, thoughtful (they even sent me a card and both vets called separately to given their condolences when my Siberian Husky passed away) and they don't nickel and dime you. The Jersey vet that I've been seeing barely has time to go over things and we have to pay for everything including what little time you get of the vets and incredibly for medical disposal for the shots that they gave my dog... are you freaking kidding me? Anyways, after a few months of this we've decided as much as a hassle that it may be I'll take the hour drive and pack my two dogs and cat for joint vet visits back at Yonkers Animal Hospital.\r more

Editorial review from Citysearch 5/10/2013

My dog's health is my top priority so if it takes time to wait and I have the ability to get in when I have to, then my time is something I'm more than willing to sacrifice. It's true the office could use a sprucing up, but I prefer the fact that they are clearly in this for patient care #1 and not overcharging in order to pay for a Ritz like office. I've searched the Internet for pet medications and have found the prices comparable to those Yonkers Animal Hospital charges. So prepare for a long wait, have no fear of overcharging, and enjoy patient care second to none at Yonkers Animal Hospital.\r more

Editorial review from Citysearch 5/7/2013

I've had pets all of my life and have never had a vet as good as Dr. Howell. He cares about his patients and I've always felt that my pets health was his highest priority. That may seem like a foregone conclusion when going to a vet, but all too often I've felt like I was being squeezed for every cent when leaving. That is NEVER the case when leaving here. The other vets that work there are more than capable and I've felt completely comfortable with them treating my dog, but Dr. Howell is second to none.\r more

They truly love animals at Yonkers Animal Hospital. I miss seeing Dr. Gavin & Dr. Howell, they cared for 3 cats of mine. The office was never beautiful but I never wanted to ""pay"" for them to upgrade the office. Once I had an emergency after hours and had to visit another vet & man did I pay for that visit and for their nice comfy office. I would take the Yonkers office any day. The prices were fair, the wait was long but Dr. Howell & Dr. Gavin were worth the wait.\r more

Dr. Givan & Dr. Howell saved my Cat's life (& prior to that my Ex & his family had been going to Yonkers Animal Hospital for at least 15 years dealing with Dr. Howell directly & they loved him). My cat had a 6 inch mass in her intestines & cancer in her lymph nodes. Dr. Gavin performed the surgery & Dr. Howell followed up. They gave me advice to seek out chemo or holistic or any route I chose. They did not push me into anything. My cat is still alive & well even though she is no longer a patient of Yonkers Animal Hospital. Had they not performed the life saving surgery & cared for her post surgery & made the proper medical recommendations she would not be here at the ripe old age of 17!\r more

This day and age it's super hard to please everyone with the cost of doing business constantly looming over head, but I can tell you when the doctors and their assistants have seen my pets they've always treated them with utmost care and concern. Care is the rare commodity here and you really can't place a price on it. I highly recommend this place, if you can actually find something better, you're quite lucky and maybe a better researcher than I am. Dr. Howell has been my favorite, by the way, and the one assistant I spoke to has her own dog, and personal experience counts just as much.\r more

I love, love, love them! I have two older dogs; a 15 year old Shar-Pei, and a 14 year old Chow mix, who I wouldn't trust to anyone else. Dr. Givan and Dr. Howell are the reason my dogs have made it so long. Both animals are living well, both walking up and down stairs on their own and going strong. Thanks YAH!!! Also want to mention that their groomer takes great care of my Shar-Pei's sensitive skin issues like a champ, and the front end staff is always cheerful when I come in.\r more

I felt prompted to write a review once I left. Everybody was friendly and I had the great pleasure of not having to wait to be seen. This is my second visit to the Yonkers Animal Hospital and I intend to continue all my pet care needs here. I found the pricing to be reasonable, which can be a concern for many people. The level of commitment, compassion and knowledge given here lets me know my Chihuahua was right where he needed to be!\r more

Editorial review from Citysearch 4/9/2013

I recently received a toy chihuahua, Maya and was referred to Dr. Howell by a family member. I can honestly say, he is by far the sweetest, kindest, most gentlest vet I have ever met. He spent time with me and Maya to explain everything I needed to know about have such a small dog!! Maya is my best friend and I love her to no end!! She is my baby and I would wait 6 hours for Dr. Howell if I had too. Obviously he treats every patient with concern, or the wait wouldn't be so long!! That only tells me that he CARES!!\r more

Dr. Howell has to be one of the most professional and compassionate veterinarian I have ever met. He addressed the issue that I was concerned with by providing me with as much time as I needed and care to ensure I had an understanding of what needed to be done to care for my tiny Chihuahua.Ater 3 years of searching for the perfect vet, I felt Dr. Howell had a clear understand of my finicky chihuahua. There was no pressure and no rush. I could see I wasn't being sold a veterinarian degree and instead I was given years of experience with an open heart for animals.\r more

Yonkers animal hospital have been treating taking care of my dog from the start 3 months old. The doctors go above and beyond for there patients. There adm. Staff are the best always there when you need them. If you call with a question one of the doctors will pick up the phone and take care of the question. Very friendly office ,clean the proud parents usually sit there and chit chat with each other. I moved from Yonkers to Dutchess county and I still take shadow to Yonkers animal hospital.worth the 140 mile trip for me.\r more

I have had many pets thruout my life and visited many vets naturally. Well, this is my 1st review i have ever written. When i took my cat Chico there, we had to wait, but the wait was well worth it. Dr. Givan was gentle, sensitive and took his time (close to 1 hour). Besides the normal shots, Chico had a bad case of ear mites and Dr. Givan got them all. The office is not a ""boutique"" like other vet offices and you don't feel like they are robbing you. They are AMAZING!\r more

Greatly appreciate 3/19/2012

I was in a tight spot (new,sick cat) and had to find a vet near my job in Yonkers. So I called and got an appointment for the same week when they first opened up in the moring. The staff was very friendly, and the vet handled my cat with compassion and also as an animal-lover. more
