Long Island City Veterinary Center

I have taking my cat to this vet place for almost 3 years. The service is great they seem to care about my cat and his health. The prices here are not too bad as long as your animal doesn't need any major surgery. The doctor office seems clean. I hope they keep up the good service here for my cat 😺

It was a terrible experience as a new resident of Long Island City,NY! After providing NYC Veterinary Group of LIC with all of the medical records for my two cats from their previous Veterinarian for their first visit at this office, I received multiple reminders of my appointment ever day for the week leading ups to the day of the appointment. The night before the actual appointment, NYC Group Representative called to say the doctor that was to see my cats would not be in and another doctor would see them but at a time 3 hours later than the original appointment time. I agreed to the new time even though my own schedule would be severely impacted. Then, on the morning of the appointment, another NYC Vet Group Representative called me to say that the doctor that was to see my cats would not be in and another doctor would be able to see them but two hours later than the rescheduled appointment. Resulting in a Five Hour change in time of our original appointment!!! NYC Veterinary Group clearly has no respect for the time of their clients!! This was the most egregious abuse of a clients time I have ever experienced in my more than 45 years as a pet owner! I could not in good conscious give them another opportunity to abuse my time. I could not trust such a group to care for my animals!!

Been taking my dog here for 8 years. Love Dr. Kulik is honest, transparent, cares about my dog and is mindful that Im on a budget. Generally doctors here are very knowledgeable but at times too quick to suggest more invasive/expensive procedures which sucks. Office is clean /modern/ convenient. The front desk staff is so warm & helpful. Ive tried all other vets in the area including Blue Pearl; LIC is the best!

Long Island City Vet is extremely helpful, caring, and quick to provide documentation. I contacted them 6 years after our dog was a patient there and they immediately knew who we were and provided original records within minutes. Definitely use!

I rarely leave reviews but after being a long time customer at LIC, I was shocked by the lack of care today. The receptionist on the phone wasn’t remotely helpful and simply said she couldn’t help us and to go to emergency clinic to have dog seen. I waited until LIC opened at 9am to see our doctor who was in and to be turned away so quickly without any care and told to go spend double the amount at an emergency clinic is shocking. The receptionist wouldn’t even ask the doctor who knows my dog. Why build rapport with a vet clinic if they aren’t there to help you when your animal is in need of being checked (he’s been acting funny a couple days)? I used to drive out of my way for LIC and we loved Dr. Kulik but the lack of care today has me sitting in a 2.5 hour wait at an emergency clinic googling new vet clinics to make a switch.
