We have been bringing our 3 dogs to Dr Devito for 12 years now.  Even after moving to the city we still have her as our vet.  They treat our dogs as if they are their own.  I can't imagine going to any other vet. Highly recommended! Read Less

This has been a long awaited review my cat tommy 2 days before thanksgiving almost died of 100 percent uti blockage which came rapidly they saved his life .. all the doctors and staff there helped me and believe me it was a total nightmare on wondering if he would live and again a few days before Christmas he was bleeding was able to give him more antibiotics and he has been fine ever since . I love this hospital Read Less

My wife reviewed West Hempstead Animal Hospital after our first interaction with them. Now here we are two years later and I'm happy to say we are still just as satisfied with their service as we were from day one.They are professional, courteous, and above all, caring to our animals.Our male cat is a nightmare about the vet. They calmly deal with his horror show of behavior. They are able to examine him and render a reliable diagnosis even when he is nearly mad with distrust of them.This is a huge and refreshing change from our previous vet in Farmingdale, who were very cruel to our animal, very rude to us, and wildly wildly expensive.These folks care about your pets. They care about you worrying for your pets. And without being to nuts about the money aspect, they seem to care about your wallet too.If you live anywhere near the West Hempstead neighborhood and need a caring kind vet. Come here and see these folks. They're wonderful, and so it their service. Read Less

Dr. Davito and the staff at West Hempstead Animal Hospital are very caring and full of advice for me, every time I've gone in with the variety of pets i've had over the past 20 years. I want to recommend them highly, to all pet lovers and of course their pets. 12-30-17- we've been bringing our 'fury relative to w.h. animal hospital, for over 20 years, and the the compassionate and professional service is unmatched. The staff treats our pets as if it were their own, and for this we will be forever grateful, The Wess family Read Less

The sweetest staff and doctors in any Vet Clinic. Their prices are really great especially compared to other places on Long Island. I've been to several other Vets in the area and WHAH is by far the best priced. Read Less

I brought my cat there last week from having allergies and by already having a bad experience at another Vet in Hicksville I wasn't sure what would be a good place to bring my cat. The Veterinarian there was friendly, knowledgeable and honest. My cat never let likes going to the Vet but for some reason she loved the visit at this place. If your looking for a good vet this is the place to go but don't judge a book by its cover for its not the fanciest place but the quality of work you will be very satisfied with. I'm so happy I brought my cat to West Hempstead Animal Hospital. Read Less

The doctors and staff are great. The office has hours in the evening and on the weekend. Each and every time my pets have been seen, the treatment or exam has always been about what is the best for my pet not about what is easiest. Every condition has be treated properly with no problems. I would not consider having anyone else take care of my pets. Read Less

I started coming here July of 2015, when this place was suggested to me by a friend, for my husky, who we unfortunately found to have a tumor. But it only took one visit, and they let me know what the cost would be before they did any x-rays or anything. And since then, we've taken all of our cats here and are always thoroughly impressed by the kindness of the staff, how much more affordable it is compared to some other places, and how knowledgeable the doctors are. Last year, I also took my cat for two ulcers on her lips, which I thought nothing of, but turns out she had a common problem and they prescribed a steroid and something else, and when we went back for our two week follow up, the vet wasn't satisfied with the progress thus far, so she extended the dosage of medication, and now my girl is a healthy little clam. I highly suggest this place over anywhere else, even if they are more out of the way for me.(30 minute drive on average) Trust me, you will not be disappointed. I'm so appreciative to have found them! Read Less

Very very very upset with them.... I have been coming to West Hempstead Animal Hospital for over 10 years and always loved the place ( why I went ahead and gave 2 stars instead of 1). My dog has something wrong with his eye so I called to see if they could possibly take us in today. Well first they said they had no room and referred me to Quality Vet Care. Called them they can not fit me in so I called back and they said they could not fit me in due to it being extremely busy. Ok I understand that but 3 minutes later the girl says they can fit me in for $100 dollars? Ooook so your telling me you have no room for a $65 dollar office visit but $100 dollars automatically opens up a spot? Very shady feeling... I thought they cared about animals but I guess money is more important to them... Very Disappointed...  ( Oh and by the way I am not Jessa... I am using her profile since I do not have one and do not want to make one)... Read Less

The overall experience was an extremely rewarding one. It was our first time to the West Hempstead Animal Hospital with our cat, Vlad, who we had recently gotten from an animal shelter. Dr. Goldberg, as well as the staff, were professional, kind, patient and caring. Went there feeling anxious and concerned, left feeling relieved and serene. Thank you to all of you who helped us that day. Read Less

I have been going there for years and never experienced rudeness. Doctors and medical assistants are good, nice, seem to really care about pets. Receptionist on the other hand was beyond rude. (Slammed the receipt down and got back on the phone) not a thank you, have a good day. Nothing. Last time I checked your supposed to treat the customer in a professional way. Not sure if I will be returning back. Read Less

Great animal hospital, the vets and vet techs are very caring and efficient. It's just obvious when they care very much about animals. Dr Goldberg did everything she could to treat my tiny rescue kitten, who is now very happy and healthy. Affordable prices too. Read Less

I switched to WH animal hospital 2 years ago and they have been amazing since day 1. They always are extremely nice, professional, and do everything they can for you and your pet. Their prices are very reasonable. When my cat passed away they called to express their condolences and even sent a card. Now I bring my new puppy their and again they are amazing. I have had a couple friends switch to them and they all have been very happy. I would recommend them to anyone I know. Read Less

Went to West Hempstead Animal Hospital when it was time to put our beloved dog down.  Everyone, and I mean absolutely everyone there was so wonderful and caring.  They treated our baby with so much love and compassion and allowed us to spend all the time we wanted during her last moments.  While it is one of the hardest things I have ever done, they did everything they could to make the experience as seamless and painless as possible for both our pet and us.  They even made a clay print of her paw for us to take home.  Honestly, I am so glad I stumbled onto this facility and will be bringing our other dog here from now on.  Highly, highly recommend.

This place is a big scam!! Hopefully no one else will be fooled by the 5 star reviews, I am sure the employees racked it up. Nothing positive to talk about this place, a rip off. Charge $500 for an antibiotic and pain medicine. Then they want to charge $10 to $200 range for everything where $10 being the "usual" price as they say and it can go up to $200 depends upon the time it takes and you have to leave the pet with them for the whole day (so I asked what will stop you from charging me $200 instead of $10, they didn't have answer), they are cruising on the fact that the pet cant talk about how long they took and what they did. They don't have a fixed price for anything instead they have a range!. Really!!? you know what you doing and give me a price, not a range and don't tell me the range depends on how long it will take!!. This place is a total rip off. Stay out. Read Less

I had wonderful care for my cats, the doctors were very professional and compashionit at the same time. I would recomend West Hempstead Animal Hospital highly to any pet parent. You can get an appointment in a reasonably short amount of time, they will see your pet right away. Read Less

Having just moved into the area, leaving behind a vet experience that was less than optimal to put it charitably, I was nervous to find a new animal hospital. But this place is wonderful - from our first interaction over the phone, I could tell this was going to be a much better experience. The reception staff is friendly and helpful, and Dr. Cutler and the vet tech were totally calm and kind with my nervous, stranger-shy cat. (Our old office used to full on sedate him for every visit, which stressed him out to no end and cost a fortune. He's not docile when he knows he's about to get an exam, but he's a small cat, not a mountain lion. The vet tech and I restrained him, and the doctor said that in the future we might just use a mild pill sedative in advance - not intravenous anesthesia that puts him at risk.)The cost of the visit was amazingly reasonable - I'm used to $500+ visits, even with just two healthy cats, and this came to less than half of that. Even more important, every recommendation the vet made was based on the state of my cat's health and lifestyle. (Indoor cats don't strictly need to be given 5+ shots each year, so when she only gave them the core 2 shots and made the others optional, it was great.) Besides that, they offer great discounts - February and March are dental health awareness months, so you can schedule a dental checkup reasonably!This is a warm and friendly and very professional office, and I'm happy to give them our business.

I had to give one star to post this. They do not deserve that!Do NOT go here. They push animals in and out. They do not give the care and time that each pet deserves. I brought my dog there very sick. They did not contact me regarding fluid in his lungs and did not treat him! They left him to die in the cage. I took him home after being prescribed  bottles of pills and he DIED! There weren't any emergency measures taken while in their care. They didnt care and they didn't help him. They take your money and send you packing. When there are serious actions or measures to be taken to save a dog they do not take them because they have a waiting room full of animals. You are a dime a dozen in this place. Reconsider if you are reading this. There are so many places that care and take the time to get to know you and your pets! Read Less

West Hempstead Animal Hospital has a great, caring staff!I recently rescued a kitten and she's been having trouble pooping. I went to a local pet store looking for a pet laxative- and they didn't have any. But I was referred to this practice and I'm very happy that I was! I went in to West Hempstead Animal Hospital the next day, and despite not having an appointment or calling ahead (totally my bad)- they were able to take us in! (Although in my defense- I thought it would be more a hospital setting with walk ins being a regular thing.)Everyone on staff was super friendly and was genuinely concerned about Clover (my kitten). Dr. Golberg gave Clover an examination and was very thorough in explaining my options. At the end of the visit- Clover was no longer backed up- much to my relief (and probably hers too)!The waiting area is spacious with a TV to keep minds occupied and all costs were reasonable. I'll definitely be bringing Clover (and all my pets) back! Read Less

Our dog is a rescue who we think was abused, so she is really touchy and scared with new people. Sometimes she'll even try to nip. Everyone at West Hempstead Animal Hospital has been so kind to her, even when she's being a pill. She's getting great care from knowledgeable vets and staff. The prices are very fair. A big thumbs up to WHAH!Read Less

The doctors and staff are very compassionate and you can tell they love animals.  It's a small office which may lead to some waiting around but the attention they pay to you and your pet is worth it.  It's also one of the more affordable Vets in the area, which is a plus as well. Read Less

I have been coming to West Hempstead Animal Hospital for 4 years now. I can honestly say that they really tried to save my precious 9 year old Welsh Corgi, Daisy but she passed in there back office the very next morning. It has been hard for us to go back to them even though we have a new puppy now. Read Less

Dr. Devito! the best, the staff so attentive and helpful, the prices are reasonable.  Having my first dog and such a complicated breed, it is so necessary to have a good vet that knows and understands that different breeds have different needs.  This hospital really knows what it's doing.

I don't have much experience with vets, but I can tell when people relay care about what they do, and Angela, does. She took care of Elfie, our male neutered American Short Hair since he has about six weeks old. She has very insistent that he be properly taken care of since day one, not for personal gain, but for her love of animals. My first, first hand of witness of her commitment to animals was when Elfie's rear quarter was crushed by a car that ran a stop sign and I swear the driver did it on purpose (l know, my fault for letting out). It was Sunday, 9/9/11 and we called the office around 8 PM, and received a call back from her about five minutes later telling us where the local animal emergency room is an that she had called ahead to let them know we were conning. Needless to say the open wound and multiple breaks were terrible.  It took about three weeks to get Elfie back on his" feet", but the outstanding thing was she charged one, very low, fee for about 30 office visits, wound cleaning and bandagging.  Skip forward to 2012, with many years of compassionate care, the time had come to put down our beloved family member. Angela was incredibly compassionate, supportive and we felt she truly understood what he were going through. About a week after we had to put down Elfie we received a condolence card from Angela with elfie's paw print, we took it as her respect for the special relationship between a human and an animal companion. The that I am making this entry at time is that Michelle, the women that owns the coffee stand at my train station had very much the same experience that I did, including the condolence. Read Less

After moving to LI, we switched animal hospitals from North Shore in Bayside to this one because of it's proximity to the house. (My dog hates car rides.) I'm not accustomed to waiting an average of an hour past my appointments, so that's definitely the biggest gripe I have about the place. I always end up having to schedule an appointment on my one day off from work because I don't know if I'll have enough time to take her in the morning before I have to go in because of this. So annoying! Especially because there's no cell connection there, so you're just sitting there for an hour. I have started bringing my Kindle with me; that helps pass the time. Usually though the waiting area is packed with pets and owners, so at least they're not just slacking around... but perhaps, they should space out their appointments a bit more than they currently do? Anyway, besides that, my experiences have been positive overall. There are two veterinarians who work there - both seem very competent, but Dr. DeVito is really great! I like that she offers different treatment options so if cost is a factor, you have a choice in what you can do for your pet. Recently, my dog had to undergo surgery and then had weekly bandage removal and check-ups. I was surprised and pleased to find that they didn't charge for any of the follow up appointments! It's like M said, "If they say charge $10, $20 per follow-up, what can you say? You just gotta pay and those appointments add up after a while." And, because we had to keep her bandage clean and dry through out, they gave us baggies to wrap it for when we took her out for free as well. Thanks, guys! I'm happy to say my pet is doing very well and it's only been a month since Dr. DeVito's diagnosis, so kudos on making the right call, Dr.!During my several visits this past month, I noticed that they can order various things for your pets - from maintenance medication to special dog food - and, of course, they carry antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medications for post-surgery treatment so you don't have to go to a pharmacy afterwards to get them filled (albeit for a tad higher price than what you'd pay at a pharmacy.)

This is honestly the only vet I will trust. Let me explain...My first dog, Rocko used to go to Central Veterinary by my house, which traumatized my poor dog. The vet over there was rough and cold. However when I brought Rocko to West Hempstead Animal Hospital (I'll abbrev. and write WHAH), I could see the kind of care Dr. Vito provided to him. My dog was actually HAPPY to be at the vet. She didn't push for extra exams and really made my dog feel at ease which made me love this place. Unfortunately Rocko passed away at 14 but WHAH was kind and sent a card in response to Rocko's passing away. Very thankful to them and heartfelt to them for that card...it truly meant the world.My sister's dog, Davis got sick one day from eating a cotton ball that contained nail polish remover after going through a trash can. He was sick, she was in Queens and the vet over there just told her to give him water. He began throwing  up blood and had zero energy. He was definitely near death. My sister knows the care WHAH gave to Rocko, she rushed Davis from Rego Park to West Hempstead. They had to hospitalize Davis for a bit to monitor him and give him a special recipe of food. After that visit, within 24 hours Davis was showing signs of improvement. After a few days, Davis was back to his old self. My sister and I know WHAH saved Davis' life. If my dog, Katie ever gets sick, I will immediately go to WHAH. I wouldn't hesitate. Read Less

Dr. DeVito is amazing and, not to mention, the staff there in general really care about animals. They will try to work with you as far as pricing goes - never forcing anything and making suggestions to work with your needs and your budget. I take my dog to petco to get his rabies shots and she never gets upset about us doing anything like that as long as we're taking care of our pets. My dog got really sick once and I took him to her after visiting a different (horrible) vet and she moved quickly. She hooked him up to an IV and kept him overnight. My dog was incredibly sick and, when he was returned, he was like brand new. Plus, she charged me way less than the other vet did just to look at him. He is always happy to go to Dr. DeVito. I couldn't be happier with the services there. Read Less
