Dr. Silverman has renewed my faith in Urban Vets in this City. He is down to earth, genuinely cares and smart as hell. This man researches and has tons of experience with cats from feral backgrounds and shelters. I've always had healthy cats but no success in a quality Vet. I now have a cat in danger and am so glad I found this doctor. Thank you CARF for the referral!

We have received the absolute best care at Village West! All of the staff is super friendly and caring and it is obvious that they put our pets best interests and needs first. They also look out for us owners, making sure we always know all of the options and costs up front. In addition to their exceptional everyday care, we were recently extremely grateful for Dr. Silverman when he stayed a good 7 or 8 hours late on a Saturday to perform much needed surgery on our cat. We are lucky to live in the neighborhood but would happily travel a great distance to bring our pets to Village West!

Excellent! I would recommend them to everyone! My son has autism and he took his Service Dog there and they treated him with dignity and respect. They also were very accommodating in helping him fill out forms. It meant a lot to my son to take the dog by himself and they made him feel very comfortable. And their prices are a lot more reasonable than our former vet. Village West is the best!

It had admittedly been too long since I took my dog to the vet and finally did so after finding a small lump on her chest. Dr. Monica Lachowsky and Yesenia immediately put me at ease: super friendly, non-judgmental, easy to talk with. Dr. Lachowsky quickly discovered Olive's lump was just some fat and gave me some options to help with my mature dog's rising knee issues. I couldn't get over what a wonderful and non-scary experience we had during our visit and I am over the moon happy to have found such a wonderful place to take care of my dog moving forward. I'm so thankful for Dr. Lachowsky and will request to see her every time I bring my dog to the office.

I had a cat emergency and didn’t know where to go. Two friends recommended Village West. I made an appointment for the afternoon. When I found my girl barely moving and breathing quickly overnight I realized she needed help right away. They got me in early and took me straight back to an examination room. The vet tech and vet were very kind and compassionate. They gave her a quick exam and confirmed what I suspected. We discussed options focusing on quality of life. Then they helped me, help her, cross the rainbow bridge.
I came to Village West prepared for that outcome. I am relieved they helped me do the best thing for my girl.

Dr. Silverman is the vet with the healing hands!! He was the only vet of 5 vets (my cat had gone to 4 vets prior to my first visit with him) that did not suggest putting him down. I believe he saw the will in my cat to live as did I and offered suggestions to keep him alive. We are now exactly a month in and my 17 year old kitty is still alive and kicking. Thank you Dr.Silverman for sharing the same hope and determination that I have for my kitty to pull through.

Just love Dr. Silverman. He has a special intuitive way with all my kits. When Sophie kitty was sick, he helped her survive peacefully for at least 2 1/2 years before she was ready to go home. We arrived after hours, as arranged with Dr. Silverman. The lights were down, and Sophie was sleeping. Dr. Silverman was so gentle with her that I actually felt her gratitude at being released from her pain. I am grateful to Dr. Silverman for helping her to live a good life until she was ready to go. She was very special. We bring our other two cats, Gabby Hayes and Suzy to see Dr. Silverman now. Suzy was a street cat with diabetes. Dr.Bruce has helped us control her blood sugar. Gabby is the child of a feral cat named Tommy. Gabby's 2 brothers live next door. Thank you Dr. Silverman for all you do for us. You are a very special vet!

I have been to Village West Veterinary twice with my two kittens. Both times they were seen by Dr. Warren, and I had a great experience with her. She is patient, and really takes the time to listen to my concerns. She also takes the time to examine my two kittens. Dr. Warren and the vet tech help to put my kittens at ease during their many vaccinations which I know can be challenging. I would definitely recommend this vet center. The prices are very reasonable for the care they provide. Overall, a wonderful veterinary center!

I have a rambunctious newly adopted rescue dog who has a long way to go in terms of realizing that not every human and animal wants to be his new best friend. At 45 lbs he can be a handful when excited. The staff at Village West Veterinary were very understanding and helpful. It took 3 of us to corral him so he could get his vaccines and be thoroughly checked out but they got it done with a smile on their faces. I was able to make the appointment on short notice and they gave me lots of helpful information on options for heartworm and flee and tick prevention. Their location is convenient, parking was easy and they took us right on schedule. Really happy we found them!

They are the most compassionate caring vets I ever had the pleasure of taking my dog to. I highly recommend this vet to anyone who wants good care for their beloved animal. They had the best after care when my Chihuahua got attacked by a pitbull. She was elderly and lasted 5 more years. Then I consistently took her there to get her anal glands expressed every few months. I moved away and other vets were not the same. So I took the trip to take her back to the great care of village west vet. The staff is amazing! I GREATLY appreciate the tender loving care they showed my sweet baby.

Super thorough and Dr. Silverman really takes his time getting to know my pets as they just had their first visit yesterday! Never did we feel rushed or pressured into unnecessary treatments and testing that I have experienced at other vets. Brett at the front desk was very kind and welcoming. Never did she treat us like we were bothering her or that she was being inconvenienced. The staff was amazing and the assistant helping Dr. Silverman was also very sweet.

And their prices are a lot more reasonable than our former vet. Village West is the best!

It had admittedly been too long since I took my dog to the vet and finally did so after finding a small lump on her chest. Dr. Monica Lachowsky and Yesenia immediately put me at ease: super friendly, non-judgmental, easy to talk with. Dr. Lachowsky quickly discovered Olive's lump was just some fat and gave me some options to help with my mature dog's rising knee issues. I couldn't get over what a wonderful and non-scary experience we had during our visit and I am over the moon happy to have found such a wonderful place to take care of my dog moving forward. I'm so thankful for Dr. Lachowsky and will request to see her every time I bring my dog to the office.

We came in today without an appointment. They were able to squeeze us in. Our 10 year old Beagle was bleeding from his gums. Monica & Rachel got a good look in there and came up with a plan of treatment. They are very caring and understanding. Such a great experience. Highly recommended.

After talking to many people, we brought our dog here for the first time. Everything was smooth from the scheduling to walking in, and even getting our dog's medical records transferred. Dr. Bruce was very thorough and explained everything in detail. He really enjoys taking care of our furry friends. The staff were all top notch as well. Going to Village West Vet is a great experience.

I had a cat emergency and didn’t know where to go. Two friends recommended Village West. I made an appointment for the afternoon. When I found my girl barely moving and breathing quickly overnight I realized she needed help right away. They got me in early and took me straight back to an examination room. The vet tech and vet were very kind and compassionate. They gave her a quick exam and confirmed what I suspected. We discussed options focusing on quality of life. Then they helped me, help her, cross the rainbow bridge.
I came to Village West prepared for that outcome. I am relieved they helped me do the best thing for my girl.

Excellent team at Village West. I brought my 13 year-old cat in and we were both treated with compassion and understanding. Dr. Monica was an excellent and open communicator. Information was given to me in a way that was understood. I will continue to bring my cat here for his medical treatment. Thank you Village West for everything.

We haven't lived in that neighborhood for 3 years yet we have not changed our vet. We make the 40 minute trek each way because the staff is so wonderful and Dr. Silverman is just so gentle and kind and truly passionate about his work. I always leave feeling confident that my fur baby received thoughtful and thorough care.

Dr. Silverman is the vet with the healing hands!! He was the only vet of 5 vets (my cat had gone to 4 vets prior to my first visit with him) that did not suggest putting him down. I believe he saw the will in my cat to live as did I and offered suggestions to keep him alive. We are now exactly a month in and my 17 year old kitty is still alive and kicking. Thank you Dr.Silverman for sharing the same hope and determination that I have for my kitty to pull through. I have a feeling that My 17 yr old Stormy (In which I've had since he was a couple months old) will let me know when he is too tired to fight...

Just love Dr. Silverman. He has a special intuitive way with all my kits. When Sophie kitty was sick, he helped her survive peacefully for at least 2 1/2 years before she was ready to go home. We arrived after hours, as arranged with Dr. Silverman. The lights were down, and Sophie was sleeping. Dr. Silverman was so gentle with her that I actually felt her gratitude at being released from her pain. I am grateful to Dr. Silverman for helping her to live a good life until she was ready to go. She was very special. We bring our other two cats, Gabby Hayes and Suzy to see Dr. Silverman now. Suzy was a street cat with diabetes. Dr.Bruce has helped us control her blood sugar. Gabby is the child of a feral cat named Tommy. Gabby's 2 brothers live next door. Thank you Dr. Silverman for all you do for us. You are a very special vet!

Love everyone at Village West! And so do my pets, dogs especially. I've been taking all four of my pets here for over two years now and they are the most helpful and compassionate. I love that the vets are willing to just sit down on the floor with us and cuddle my dogs. Best vet I've been too in my 7 years of pet parenting.

I have been to Village West Veterinary twice with my two kittens. Both times they were seen by Dr. Warren, and I had a great experience with her. She is patient, and really takes the time to listen to my concerns. She also takes the time to examine my two kittens. Dr. Warren and the vet tech help to put my kittens at ease during their many vaccinations which I know can be challenging. I would definitely recommend this vet center. The prices are very reasonable for the care they provide. Overall, a wonderful veterinary center!

I have a rambunctious newly adopted rescue dog who has a long way to go in terms of realizing that not every human and animal wants to be his new best friend. At 45 lbs he can be a handful when excited. The staff at Village West Veterinary were very understanding and helpful. It took 3 of us to corral him so he could get his vaccines and be thoroughly checked out but they got it done with a smile on their faces. I was able to make the appointment on short notice and they gave me lots of helpful information on options for heartworm and flee and tick prevention. Their location is convenient, parking was easy and they took us right on schedule. Really happy we found them!

They are the most compassionate caring vets I ever had the pleasure of taking my dog to. I highly recommend this vet to anyone who wants good care for their beloved animal. They had the best after care when my Chihuahua got attacked by a pitbull. She was elderly and lasted 5 more years. Then I consistently took her there to get her anal glands expressed every few months. I moved away and other vets were not the same. So I took the trip to take her back to the great care of village west vet. The staff is amazing! I GREATLY appreciate the tender loving care they showed my sweet baby. THANKS AGAIN EVERYONE AT VILLAGE WEST VET!!!

Super thorough and Dr. Silverman really takes his time getting to know my pets as they just had their first visit yesterday! Never did we feel rushed or pressured into unnecessary treatments and testing that I have experienced at other vets. Brett at the front desk was very kind and welcoming. Never did she treat us like we were bothering her or that she was being inconvenienced. The staff was amazing and the assistant helping Dr. Silverman was also very sweet. Definitely a keeper and we will be back!!!

Loved my experience here! Took my cats here for a wellness visit and vaccines and they were very thorough and patient with all my questions as I am a first time pet owner. I thought the prices were reasonable and they didn't try to push anything unnecessary on me. They also spent time teaching me how to clip my cats nails and clean their ears, didn't appear in a rush at all. I will be returning for any care I need!

This is a superb veterinary clinic. Fortunately, most visits have been for wellness with one being a small scare. We've seen Dr. Silverman and Dr. Arrigo. Both are superb doctors, very caring, and take their time with you and your pet. The small scare was handled quickly and I had the test results back quickly as well as a follow-up call from Dr. Silverman. Why go anywhere else?

My fiance took his car Shadow emergency to Dr. Silverman. He was amazing with Shadow and did everything he could to try and save her. The staff there is so kind and understanding. He is truly a rare breed of a Vet doctor and you will never go wrong taking your pet to him and his staff. They truly do care about your pet and you as well. I definately would go out of my way to bring any animal I own to them.
