I have recently started going to Albany County Veterinary Hospital for my cats since it is close to my house. The staff was very friendly however, I was waiting about 20 minutes after my schedule appointment for my cat to be seen. Additionally, there is no separate area for cats and dogs to wait, so my cat was very freaked out while he was waiting. However, once we were in the room the vet and tech were very knowledgeable and very friendly. If you live close by I would definitely give them a try. Read Less

SCAM ARTISTS They constantly tell you email is the best way to reach them and never answer their emails or facebook. They are there to sell you unnecessary pills and equipment to make sure they get money out of you. Please go anywhere else Read Less

PLEASE LEARN FROM MY MISTAKE After telling me the exam fee was only 50$'s they insisted on xrays and never told me that would increase the price. It ended up being 250$'s and they put my cat on pills that weren't necessary nor made a difference for months. They sell you useless pills after bait and switching you all for the money! They don't care about your pet, they care about how much they can diagnose your cat to see how much money they can get out of you. PLEASE DON'T GO HERE FOR YOUR OWN SAKE. you've been warned Read Less

These esteemed people misdiagnosed my cat. They did refund my money, however once much cat went into diabetic failure and they made an emergency appointment with me on a weekend, they called back and cancelled it enough route to their practice. My cat almost expired. Most ethical vets would stabilize the animal until you could see emergency or your cet, but not these individuals. They held the fact that I requested my money back for their original misdiagnosis against me in a time of crisis for my pet. There is a special place in Hello for health professionals like this. AVOID like the plague. Read Less

When I got my bearded dragon 2 years ago, I wanted to take her to the vet to make sure everything was okay. Dr. Jarvis was, and continues to be, an amazing vet to all of our animals. She is always available for questions via email and is so knowledgeable. When we adopted a puppy, she received a free check up from another vet. This other vet was very blah...and we brought the pup the Dr. Jarvis for her booster shots and she was phenomenal, as always, with our new addition. We trust all of our animals with Dr. J. Read Less

I have been bringing my animals to Dr Pokorny and Dr Jarvis for 6 years and they have both provided excellent care each time. My cat and rabbit both receive ample time and thorough examination during their visits. Both doctors and the staff are endlessly patient and gentle with my dog, who is fearful of her visits to the vet. The vet techs and the reception staff are always kind and welcoming. I highly recommend this office. Thank you for your excellent care! Read Less

Scammers. They figured my dog was a show dog and seriously jacked up the prices for a routine dental cleaning. Ended up going down the road to Slibgerlands and guess what? 1/10th the cost for the EXACT SAME PROCEDURE. Avoid this place at all costs. Very rude and disrespectful receptionists and vet techs.

We have a special needs kitty who is very near and dear to our hearts. Dr. Pokorney and the entire staff go above and beyond for animals! We highly recommend ACVH and will forever be grateful for the care and love they show our little guy!!! Read Less

The staff at Albany County Veterinary Hospital are all incredible. The veterinarians, technicians, and front desk staff are all extremely nice and caring. They are all extremely animal-focused and show the utmost care in handling of pets and their owners - especially in extremely emotionally difficult times. Our pets are our furry family members. I trust the life of my furry loved ones to Dr. Jarvis, Dr. Pokorny, and all of the staff at Albany County Veterinary Hospital. Read Less

Nessa (4-year-old mutt dog) loves going here! Mookey (16-year-old kitty) hates all vets, but Nessa loves to hug and kiss everyone here, and the vets and technicians are sweet and tolerant of her high energy, bouncy personality. They were good in March with Mookey's emergency visit as well. Read Less

We moved out of the area recently and need to transfer vet. It is hard to leave seeing as they have cared for our pets with the best service for over 9 years. My dog has had some serious health issues and they have been the ones to help him live a healthy and happy life. We will greatly miss ACVH and will highly recc. them to anyone that ever asks.

Everyone here is lovely, from the ladies at the front and of course the two wonderful veterinarians. I recently had a pet pass and everyone was kind and compassionate. It was a wonderful surprise to receive a card after from Dr. Pokorny. It was a very nice thing to get while mourning my loss. Will never go anywhere else for the care of pets. Read Less

Everyone there was absolutely amazing. They have been so great to my cat (a former stray who had a few different issues). It was clear they cared less about my business/money and WAY, WAY more about the health of my pet! It was so great to have a vet and an entire staff that were so wonderful!!!! Read Less

Dr. Jarvis is a wonderful veterinarian. She has her heart and soul into saving lives. She saved a life for me when others gave up from the start. He is now living happily ever after. She also has the greatest staff! Thank you everyone for helping Maxi! Read Less

When Dr. Jarvis acquired Albany County Veterinary Hospital we followed her there, even though it was a much further ride for us. She and her staff are the only veterinary personnel with whom we trust the care of our much loved dog. When we travel we know our pet will be cared for with no worries, in a clean, loving and safe environment. For all vetrerinary needs, Albany County Veterinary will deliver top quality care for your pet! Read Less

We loved Albany County Veterinary Hospital! They were warm, friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. Dr. Jarvis has an easy 'bedside' manner that made both me and my pets feel comfortable. She is very patient and I felt she was genuinely concerned for my pets health. The staff on a whole was professional and caring. We called a few times with concerns and they gave great council over the phone, too! We have since moved out of the area but I would recommend them to anyone in Albany! Read Less
