Central Vet’s Mineola

Terrible!!! So awful. Granted, the people dealing with the phones who pick up are nice enough and helpful with scheduling. But omg, for our first visit there, they gave us some amateur incompetent guy who looked about 25. My puppy wasn’t eating right and kept having diarrhea. As a first time pet owner, I was super anxious and had a ton of questions. He basically let me answer my own questions the entire time and I had to prod him non stop for him to provide explanations and he’ll just be like yeah uh huh yup. I was getting so frustrated and the assistant was pissing me off too with an attitude. He was so not experienced! And for giggles, he just gave her another shot for the sake of it to the point that when I switched to my next vet place, she was like wtf why does she have this many shots already?! Fine, gave it a second chance with another doctor based on the bios I read on their site. I didn’t go to this appointment, but my mother went on my behalf with my puppy and said she just made them uncomfortable because she wasn’t friendly at all and didn’t do a thorough examination. And on top of that, the things they tried to sell us for our puppy, which we ended up getting, was like three to four times more expensive than what we could have gotten on Amazon!!! What a scam. I moved on to the animal hospital in New Hyde Park and I have zero regrets about that. The only reason why we went was because the pet store we got my puppy from said they have a great contract with this vet place and they have the best doctors and any vaccinations needed would already be covered and free. Not even worth it for their complete incompetence! I might even post their names later once I get the chance to look back on my appointments.

Great Vets! We have 2 dogs, and a cat, and they all are treated there. We recently had a scare with our 6 yr. old cat, Molly, and after a 2 day stay at the Central Vets Hospital in Valley Stream for a severe urinary tract infection, she is once again home with us, and feeling much better. The Dr.‘s are very caring, and honest, and the girls at the Mineola office are the best, and very sympathetic. Would recommend Central Vets to anyone.
