Animal Clinic of Long Island City

This place is amazing! Im a new pet owner and I came with my two kittens and they had almost no wait time. The receptionist was super kind and everything in the clinic was super organized. The technicians took great care of my pets and gave me all the information I needed to know to take care of my kittens, including what the best food is and vaccinations. The veterinarian was also super helpful! Overall I had a great experience. I would definitely recommend coming here, whether you are a new pet owner or not

PLEASE READ: Please do not come here for your cat’s needs or any animal needs. The veterinary who runs the place botched by kitten’s spay which has led to 3 years of medical complications. It took 2.5 years and almost $5,000 in medical expenses for an emergency veterinary clinic to diagnose my cat with part of her ovary still intact. After contacting the clinic about the situation, I was met with a receptionist who yelled at me on the phone, refused to give me the malpractice insurance and policy number for a few days. Eventually, I got the insurance and policy number, only for it to be sham - I just found out today from the insurance provider that they had bamboozled me and provided me the clinics building insurance policy. I still have no response from them on the real insurance of the vet. The vet tried to blame me for having my cat be 1 pound over weight mixed with a poor diet ( she doesn’t have a poor diet). The receptionist told me To never write a bad review or it would ruin them - I obliged until I found out they have been intentionally giving me the run around to avoid the malpractice claim insurance. This means not only is malpractice at play, but they are intentionally preventing me from getting reimbursed from thousands of dollars of diagnosis procedures while still waiting to get her surgery to remove her ovary which is quoted for 2,000 dollars. They tried to get me to come in to do the procedure, but someone explain to my why you’d bring your animal back here after this experience. They also refused to help pay the costs up to this point. AVOID COMING HERE AT ALL COSTS.

I've been fortunate enough to work with Dr. Gapas as our vet for the last 5 years. She's taken incredible care of our dog and 2 cats. She's thoughtful, compassionate, well-researched, and has been rigorous in solving a number of their health issues. She recently performed a complicated surgery on our cat's paw, and he's healed perfectly and is doing great. All of the techs in the office are deeply caring, detailed, and committed. Judy, who I've had the pleasure of working with frequently is amazing and highly knowledable. I always trust that our pets are receiving the best care at this clinic. Dr. Gapas is an extraordinary vet, and I'm so grateful to her and the entire team at Animal Clinic of LIC.

The care is great. Be aware that if you need to have medicine prescribed first check online before purchasing there. My dog has been their patient for 14 years I took him for his shots and regular check up June 25th they prescribed him eye medicine which I paid $70.33 I went to pick up a refill August 20th was charged $80.00. On line the max you will pay is $60.00. Fo your online research before you purchase any medicine from here.
