Beverlie Animal Hospital

Very nice staff, kind and experienced vet. Prices are very reasonable. They don’t hard sell you into stuff you don’t need, but instead, explain options and let you decide. The whole practice has an old fashioned family feel to it – and they make you feel you are part of the family.

I had to make an important decision regarding my 16 and a half year old yorkie. The love of my life.
I took her to the Beverlie Animal Hospital for her final moments, it was as beautiful an experience as it could be, considering the situation. They were compassionate, caring, warm and patient. It was an excellent decision and made this terrible moment as easy as possible
My two experiences in this office, in the North section of Mount Vernon was that he likes animals, maybe even loves them. That’s the way you want it to be.
I know it sounds crazy because you think all vets do. But .no. Not from my experience at the other office.
Very close by. where I’ve been going for many years
I could not imagine sending My girl to heaven in that office The frenzied CLINIC atmosphere, the brusque treatment.
I would have switched long ago except I told myself she was familiar. Now looking back I should have done it,. I should have switched my girl to the Beverlie … there was never a sense at the other office of the Dr’s genuine liking of animals. I never saw it.
There were some positive things about the previous Mt Vernon office I used to go to but most were not. YES I felt he was smart but. WAY more interested in money than in animals certainly. And I found that peculiar as I SAT there one day and counted .the guy’s a multi-​millionaire clearly… I think that
If you’re going to have a clinic atmosphere, then have clinic prices but no…
I have a family member involved in pharmaceutical business and I know what he was paying for the meds I had to give her everyday and what he charged me. It’s pretty shocking…
I feel that many companies, vets, (Crematorium too) take advantage of the love pet owners feel for their pets. And they overcharge because they can. Just Because they can. And that does not make it right.
I know pet care is expensive. That’s how it is .but if you go to the Beverlie Animal Hospital, you will get the sense that they like you… like your pet and care.
You will feel respect, and its not a clinic.
I recommend this office… And will be taking all 3 of my cats there.

The best vet in Westchester hands down and probably one of the best vets in the tri-​state area (maybe even the country haha). Dr. Raiti and Bill and the receptionist Erin are all extremely kind, friendly and they genuinely care for every single pet and person that goes in there. They are also not greedy and are very honest when they recommend a course of action or procedure for your pet-​unlike many other vets (and human doctors) who start to rack up all these unnecessary charges, procedures and drugs that your pet really does not need. They are also very reasonably priced compared to other vets in the area. Dr. R and Bill are always very gentle and patient with my Hava-​Chon and my family and I always feel at ease knowing are furry family member is in their hands. Dr. R is also a certified reptile expert and one of very few in the country. They have also been featured in many newspaper articles and the news documenting their positive history. Do not have any doubts if you are looking for a vet in this area because they are the best!

What a great place! BAH is situated in a modest little building right across from CVS on Grand. It’s easy to miss but don’t be fooled by its quiet exterior; there appears to be a force of great people inside. From the moment I walked in I had a good feeling like I was being welcomed by an old friend, even thought it was my first visit. There is a nostalgia about the interior that tells you that you are in the company of true «animal people». The sentiments mentioned carried throughout the visit for me and most importantly, for my small furry friend (cat). I like to ensure my pets are working with professionals who genuinely care about their wellness as a priority and this was the complete vibe I had from everyone I spoke with. Dr. Raiti and Bill were attentive, kind, and thoughtful in their dialogue. They were extremely friendly and engaging any question I had. I could tell they were invested in seeing my kitten well. That means a lot. I failed to retrieve the name of the awesome woman managing the front of the clinic but she is the perfect person to have greet and handle your clients. Very warm and engaging and genuine. Everyone here was just really sincere and that’s rare and highly valuable. The cost of the office visit is very reasonable, around $ 70. I feel relieved to have found an awesome clinic for my little baby!
As a side note, Dr. R’s wife happens to make amazing ceramic bowls which are for sale in the front. Couldn’t leave without one for the little queen’s new water dish. Check this place out!

Dr. Raiti has been taking care of our family pets (a snake and two cats) since we moved to New York. He is very thoughtful and patient and has an excellent «bedside» manner. The staff handles my anxious cat so gently that he can’t help but purr even though he’s being examined! (Well, he’s not a very smart cat, too.) A pleasure to take my pets here for their annual check up.

Dr. Raiti is an extremely knowledgeable and caring vet who made sure to ask all the right questions concerning my ball python. It was just a routine checkup and my guy is healthy and beautiful, but you really hear horror stories when it comes to finding a good reptile vet. Dr. Raiti really knows his stuff and even owned snakes himself. The receptionist said he is one of around 13 board certified reptile vets in the country which I didn’t even know but that’s even more reassuring.
Despite all that I’d have realized quickly how understanding yet serious he is about reptile health. He really grilled me! My constantly active and curious python was actually pretty calm during it all because he was so gentle with him. He’s always handled really well but it’s still great to see.
Any vet bill is going to be costly, and this simple one ran me $ 130 with tax but it’s completely worth it, I highly recommend him to anyone!

Dr. Raiti is an excellent Vet. Him & His staff are, caring, friendly and patient. the Office is very clean. He really cares about the well being for my dog and he has lots of patience. My dog is anxious and nervous and is afraid of strangers but doesnt mind going here. He’s gentle and kind and wouldnt prescribe anything for your pet that he wouldnt give to his own.
He’s very knowledgeable of different species and breeds b/​c I’ve seen dogs, cats and reptiles in there. Dr. Raiti is one of the best vets I’ve come across and I’ve had pets since i was a child.

Dr. Paul Raiti is far and away the best reptile veterinarian you will find, probably in all of the northeast. I came to him on a referral from the Boston Aquarium’s reptile vet. Thankfully, he is a super easy metro-​north ride from NYC where I live.
I came to him with my pet turtle of 8 years, who I loved very dearly and had raised from a baby. We were the victims of veterinary malpractice by Dr. Amy Kurowski at St. Mark’s Vet in the city. As a result, my turtle didn’t make it, but Dr. Raiti really did his best. He was totally honest about my turtle’s chances and made it clear he wasn’t going to try to push/​sell unnecessary and expensive treatments on me. In the end, it was my own decision to go forward with all of the tests and procedures that were options at the time, as I wanted to do all I could for my turtle. The bill came to over $ 2000, but his pricing per visit and treatment were actually much less than Dr. Kurowski’s, and his expertise with reptiles was worth so much more.
Dr. Raiti was able to open my turtle’s mouth easily and without force (whereas Dr. Kurowski broke my turtle’s beak). Dr. Raiti was able to take an X-​ray and show me where my turtle’s leg was dislocated (whereas Dr. Kurowski told me she took an x-​ray, charged me $ 150 for it, never showed me it, and later when I asked for it, could not find it). Dr. Raiti was able to do an ultrasound on my turtle’s body and show me where her kidney’s and liver had potential cysts.
Dr. Raiti is AMAZING! If you have a sick reptile anywhere in the Northeastern states, please make the trip to see Dr. Raiti! He is the best.
