Dr Hollowell and the entire team at Great Neck Vet are truly the best! For over ten years they have taken care of my pets, treating them like family. My older dog has had his fair share of issues including an autoimmune disorder, tumors, and even swallowing a huge fish hook. The team at Great Neck Vet always work tirelessly to ensure my pets’ wellbeing and I wouldn't dream of taking my them anywhere else! Thank you for always nurturing my fur babies with love!

I’ve been bringing my dog, Champ, to Great Neck Veterinarian Clinic for the past five years, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the care he’s received. The staff is outstanding—always personable, attentive, and genuinely caring. They’ve taken wonderful care of Champ, from routine check-ups to surgery, ensuring he always receives the best possible treatment. Their professionalism and dedication give me complete peace of mind knowing Champ is in great hands. I highly recommend this clinic for anyone looking for top-notch veterinary care!. Craig Hamilton

My pets have been patients at GNVC for a few years and the patient care, client communications, and innovative techniques and treatments are exceptional. Sailor began limping over the winter and was diagnosed with a partial cruciate tear. Dr. Hollowell recommended and performed an Alpha Flo injection in his knee and within two weeks he was back to his high energy lifestyle, pain free! Cannot recommend enough; I would give Great Neck a 10/5 stars if possible!

Great Neck is an excellent clinic for your pets. Dr. Hollowell (and any other vet that you chose) is fantastic. She has worked with my own personal dog (who is VERY difficult at the vet) and was able to successfully help his Lupus treatment. The staff here truly goes above and beyond in every way.My parents have also seen her, and they were extremely impressed. Dr. Hollowell is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also compassionate and patient, taking the time to answer all of our questions and explain everything thoroughly. We have never felt rushed or uncertain about any treatment plan.It’s clear they genuinely care about the animals and their families. She is spot on with her diagnosis and treatment and is also not afraid to refer to a specialist, if needed.I would 10/10 recommend going to Great Neck Veterinary for a routine checkup or an emergency visit. They will be there every step of the way.

Wow! Great Neck Vet is by far the best vet I have ever been to! Before I found out about this place (thank you to wonderful patients and friends recommendations) I’ve been going to ANOTHER vet to take care of my 15 year old dog for over 6 years. When my dog tore his ACL, other than surgery, they gave me little to no alternatives. I knew something wasn’t right, so I finally took my friend’s recommendation and the moment I engaged with staff made me feel like I made the right choice. I am so thrilled with Dr. Walker’s chair side manner along with Veronica, Bridget, Karen and all other techs that helped with laser treatments. To the girls at the front desk, they are efficient and friendly which makes scheduling a breeze! I am excited to establish a relationship and bring my younger puppy on board!

My 5y/o cat had his first visit with Great Neck Vet Clinic today and we absolutely loved them. The facility was very clean and pleasant, the staff was amazing - I wish I knew our vet tech’s name she was incredible with my baby and made the entire visit super easy on him. The vet was wonderful as well! I also had to reschedule from the weekend prior due to snow and the staff I spoke to on the phone were very friendly and understanding. I highly recommend this vet for your fur babies!

I started coming to great neck vet because when my puppy was attacked by another dog in 2021 (we had just moved here from RVA and we didn’t have a vet in VB yet). I called every vet in the area and nobody would see her on such short notice because she wasn’t a current patient and we were still in the Covid aftermath. Finally I called great neck vet, even though you guys were a bit far away, and you were the only ones who made an effort to see her as soon as possible. You were able to make room and squeeze her in the next day and provide medical care and SO much relief for me. Her wound wasnt too bad but it was infected and her face was swollen, I couldn’t bear to have had to wait a week or more for someone to help her. When we came to that initial appointment the entire staff was extremely welcoming and understood how scary this was for us and made both of us feel at home and at ease.That initial visit solidified it for me, I won’t go anywhere else! I love everyone at Great Neck Vet and the way they treat my pup.I trust the staff here, I feel you guys have always been transparent and wholly understanding of our needs. The communication and customer service is amazing here. Thank you so much

This is the first vets office that Vana has liked, the people here are always so friendly and knowledgeable. Dr. Abernathy is hands down amazing with her and she actually trusts and enjoys him petting her, which is surprising as she only really likes a small selection of people!

I had a great experience. I like that you guys have a place for the pups to wait outside if they are nervous. I felt like the vet really listened and spent more time with us than I’ve experienced at other vet clinics. Thank you

Everyone involved in our appointment was incredibly kind, starting from getting us a same-day appointment and being so accommodating for our high-strung ad nervous dog, Maverick. I told my husband in the car that was the kindest vet experience I have ever had.

This is a great veterinary practice. I appreciate that they employ a number of skilled vet techs. I have met with a number of the veterinarians and have liked them all. I'm not rushed during the appointments. My concerns are listened to, taken seriously, and addressed appropriately. My dog also loves going there. Their Fear Free approach has made his experiences fun. It's often challenging to get him to leave, even after getting vaccines!

Thank you to all of the kind and wonderful staff at GNV.It has been about 2 months since we had to let go of our cat/soulmate/therapist/son, Ziggy. We are privileged and honored to have had him in our lives for 17 years. I will never know what we did to deserve such an outstanding feline and best friend.Over the last few years, he has been stricken with arthritis, dental, thyroid issues and kidney disease.Our Boy was a trooper and managed to live with it all. But it all was only manageable because of the fantastic care that he received from GNV.Words cannot convey how very grateful we are to everyone at GNV. From the very first office visit to when we bid him Farewell and put him to rest. At each visit we were met with staff that were gentle, compassionate and kind.Unfortunately, there is a massive hole in our lives and our hearts, but we know that Ziggy had the very best life and care, thanks to your fabulous team.Our sincerest gratitude – Tim and Diana Phillips

Great Neck Vetinary Clinic is a great business that does a million things right. They have taken wondeful care of our dog for over 5 years since we got him. Just this week we had an emergency situation arise from our pup getting into a fish hook. Dr Hollowell and Amanda handled the situation quickly and Everyone from the ladies at the front desk to those that treated him did an amazing job. I cant say enough good things about this business and the people that work there.

When we got to the office the ladies at the front desk were very welcoming, this was our first visit to them and even though we weren’t aware of who was who the automatically new us, they already had us checked in and welcomed us in the building with open arms while also showing love and care for our two dogs. They made the paper process super easy and not overwhelming with tons of questions. They were very friendly and kind. We were taking back to the room in no time where the tech was super friendly and made sure we were ware of what we were getting that day for them and what we didn’t want and didn’t try to upsell us on anything or push us into anything that we told them we didn’t want! She went over what each shot was and what the vet will go over with us. Our babies loved her !! We did have a wait once we in the waiting room but it was to be understandable as a emergency came in I believe with another dog as we came in for our appointment, even when we came in with that happening they still made it appoint to show us the attention coming in the door making us feel welcomed! Once the vet came in he was super sweet nice and welcomed us to his practice! Showed love and compassion for our two fur babies. First when he came in he was giving them the attention they wanted making them feel comfortable while getting to know us personally as his clients before moving on to the fur babies which was nice rarely so you see that!! It’s go in and do what they need to do and it over but not here at Great Neck! We felt like we were welcomed there ! Once he got to the point of giving our dogs the vax and going over what he noticed he broke down everything he was doing and giving them while also not making them feel uncomfortable and shaken. One plus was they had cheese at which my dogs loved so that got their attention pretty quickly 😂!!! He was down in the floor with them giving them pets and loves and making sure they felt comfortable with him, we have a German shepherd and alot of people are so scared of them but not here they didn’t make him feel like he was a monster at all !!! Over all our visit was a amazing and we will continue to take our babies here!! The prices are responsible and cheaper than alot of vets what I paid for both my dogs would have cost me else where for just one dog ! We had a annual and a puppy visit !!! We live in the Eastern Shore and made the trip to VA Beach cause we heard such great things and the experience he has with Bullies and the prices they have! But you always look for a vet who shows that they care for the animals and he did just that he made two new best friends Monday afternoon!! The whole team did! Thank you all for showing so much love and compassion and making us feel welcomed! We will see you all again soon and I will definitely be sending new clients your way !!

Great Neck has been amazing with all of our dogs. We unfortunately had to put our two dogs down two years ago and they handled both situations so well with sympathy and care. Now that we have a new dog we are experiencing the same level of care! The front desk staff is so nice and helpful and every tech and vet we have seen truly loves our dog Sadie, and because of that, Sadie loves going to the vet and gets so excited when we pull in.

We had an emergency issue, we were not even a current client and you were able to accommodate us and diagnose the issue swiftly. Hennesey is almost back to her old self again thanks to Dusty and Dr Cat! I am soo appreciative of the entire staff, they truly do care for your pet in every way.

My vet moved here from Hope Springs Vet, and thank you, thank you. A whole different experience, the other place had really deteriorated.The staff is warm and friendly, you don't wait and wait. If you have an appt, you get right in for your appointment. Not overlapping the bookings. The vibe & environment is so much better. I would probably follow my vet, Dr Hoffman, through the gates of hell, but fortunately didn't have too! She had been our vet since 2012. Love her!

Absolutely fantastic! I’ve tried many vets in the area and was not thrilled. Somehow this practice has managed to put together a staff of superstars that absolutely love animals and are highly skilled and efficient. They are kind, practical and go above and beyond EVERY time.

I have yet to be in need of critical vet car, all of my visits are for maintenance or minor issues (ear infection etc). However, when we are in the office I feel like my animal is valued-they care for them as much as I do. Additionally, there is obvious joy amongst the staff. You walk in and you can’t help but catch the good vibes. There is obvious harmony and a focus on work place culture.

I love this place so much that I’m bringing my pup back even though it’s now a 40 minute drive from my new house. I tried taking her to another vet that was closer but Great Neck really set the bar high. Their office is clean and welcoming and their staff are always amazing.

I'm a new client and finding a vet clinic is always hard. Not only did Dr. Lawson sit with me and went over all my concerns I had with my Titus. He also helped me find solutions and a plan for him. His staff are amazing and his vet tech was awesome.They did some research on places we can get a medication cheaper that always helps, because we all know how much that can be. So thank you Great Neck you guys are amazing!!!!

We can not recommend Great Neck vet enough. When our dog Smokey wasn’t himself they got us in same day and Dr. Larsen was so kind and took such good care of our dog. The staff is so friendly too! Even though it’s a 30 min drive we won’t be going anywhere else! Truly the first vet we have gone to who I felt actually cared and wasn’t all about the money.

They were wonderful! I have an elderly dog who is very fearful of going to the Vet. I switched Vets for various reasons. My dog was initially fearful but they were so good with her and she actually became relaxed and even had her tail up for a moment. What amazed me the most is the doctor did not insist on doing any procedures which really gained the trust from my dog. I am so glad I switched as I can tell my dog will have the best care!

I'm a new client and I'm blown away with how amazing this practice is. Not only did they give us answers about my Yennefer but they helped with her prescription food. Dr Cat and Dr Abernethy are amazing doctors who really care about the pets they see and the people who care for them. I'll be taking my babies here for life.

I rarely give reviews online. In this instance it’s warranted. Great Neck Veterinary Clinic is amazing. They saved my Labrador’s life after she ingested gum. The staff, doctors and techs were a trauma team working like a machine. I’ve spent 32 years in EMS and practiced law for 18 years, they were as good as the finest emergency room. They stabilized her for transport to a 24 hour animal hospital and educated me for what to expect. My family and I are forever in their debt for saving Letty’s life. They are a credit to helping people and providing care to sick and injured animals. Below is a picture of picking Letty up last night to take her home from being discharged after 3 days in the animal hospital.

The staff was all so friendly and helpful! I was so worried about my cat, Little Foot. I felt 100% comfortable that he was going to be okay as soon as we arrived at Greak Neck Vet. They were able to accept us late in the day even while they were incredibly busy helping other pets. Everyone was so kind, patient and informative. Little Foot was having difficulty breathing and loosing interest in food. After being seen, he was diagnosed with an upper respiratory infection. He was given an IV for hydration, an antibiotic and some eye drops to take home. They gave me support and advice on how to keep him hydrated and administer the drops. He’s been eating and staying hydrated since we got home. In two days he is definitely on the mend. He is walking around again, eating, and full of love. I can’t thank everyone enough for helping our baby! I am so relieved to see him getting back to normal. I am looking forward to his follow up visit and bringing my other pets in soon for a check up. Thank you again!

I absolutely love it here my dog was very sick and couldn’t get him in the anywhere. Even our vet. I understand everywhere is short staff but the moment I called I can hear it in their voice they cared. They listened to me and got me in right away. Turns out my, my baby was sick and had to be put down. They helped my dog out in every way they can. Very Sympathetic . Everyone was so friendly and understanding. Thank you so much everyone there

They managed to get my Weezie, same day for an urgent need even though their urgent care team was off and we aren’t established patients. The “no fear” Deal they’ve got going is cool. Instead of putting my dog up on the scary exam table they came right in and got on his level to do the exam. He felt so comfortable

From the moment we stepped through the door, my experience, and my dog's experience was nothing but wonderful and amazingly positive. My dog is usually stressed and afraid at other vets. Joy was awesome! She commented that his tail didn't stop wagging. I saw Dr. Hope Valentine and she is trained in Chinese medicine. Several other vets said to put my dog down. Dr. Valentine sent me home with antibiotics and fluid to flush his kidneys, as well as a plan, but most importantly a positive attitude and HOPE. She really is Dr. Hope! She performed acupuncture on my dog that day. She also told me all the foods to get and to feed him. Everything about Great Neck Vet was totally positive and 180 degrees opposite of my experiences at my now former vet's office. I really can't say enough compliments about all the staff there!

21:49 04 Apr 22
We just moved into the area and my dog ended up getting sick, after calling many places I found this clinic and they were able to get us in the urgent care that day! Very nice and polite all the way around! One thing that really made an impression on me was that they asked my budget so they knew what to prioritize. I really appreciated that! They fixed my baby up and sent us home with some medicine $200 cheaper than the number I gave them! This will be our new clinic and I'm grateful that I found them! I can't thank them enough for getting us in and keeping our treatment under budget!

WOW!! I cannot thank this clinic enough for agreeing to see my 14-year-old Yorkshire terrier tonight! My dog, Roxie, had an actively bleeding open sore, which ended up being a medical emergency (!!) When I came home from work, I was frantic, trying to call as many offices as I could (so I could avoid the hefty blue pearl emergency bill), and the other three vet clinics I called said they had absolutely no availability and basically acted like they didn’t care. When I called this office, the receptionist immediately said, come on in! It felt nice to talk to someone on the phone who actually cared and was willing to see a dog who wasn’t already their patient. I am so incredibly thankful to this veterinary office for taking in my old sweet girl and even performing the surgery she needed that very night. I really cannot recommend this veterinary clinic enough. Thank you all a million! My sweet old pup may not be happy right now after surgery, but she certainly is in a lot less pain than she was before. Thank you, Great Neck Veterinary Clinic! You have such a wonderful veterinarian and veterinary staff. Thank you for treating Roxie tonight ❤️

Called around for an hour trying to find somewhere to get my pup in around 8:30 at night, finally tried here and we got there and were out within the hour. They were so amazing and kind to both me and my puppy as I was crying my eyes out waiting for him. Highly recommend and am forever grateful for women that helped us out.

I was extremely thankful that Great Neck was able to see my cat within 30 minutes of calling. They were the only vet within a 40 mile radius that had emergency appts and when he needed a follow up appt the next day, they were able to accommodate that as well. Thanks to the awesome front desk and veterinary staff, our boy is feeling back to his old self again.
Lauren Carden

They were very reassuring and patient in answering all of my questions. My first and only experience with them so far is unfortunately an emergency situation with my puppy, however, everyone was AH-MAZING. I was able to call when they opened and got an exam AND surgery scheduled the same day. The techs were great with Jameson and the vet called to give me an update and quick run-down when Jameson got out of surgery. Again, this is my first experience with Great Neck, as well as my sweet boy having surgery like this. I've called just about everyday with additional questions / help with getting Jameson to take his medication and Jenna has been really helpful. I cannot say enough how thankful I am and grateful for them to take such great care of my sweet boy and be so kind to me in the process while I was a mess and scared.

Had to take my kitty in to the Urgent Care because her left eye was swollen and pink and they got us in immediately to get her seen. Explained the pricing up front and did a thorough exam to determine the cause and gave us meds for her. Also made some suggestions to help the chubby girl lose some pounds which she really needs. Thanks so much!

I am grateful to have found Great Neck Vet for my cat Kitty Bear. Kitty Bear had sudden G.I upset last week and into this week and the staff and doctors have been very patient and caring with Kitty Bear. I also appreciate how they explained what was going on and what the options were for him so that he got feeling better quicker and we all benefited in the long run. Setting the intention Kitty Bear is on the road to excellent health and a happy G.I. today. Thank to all the staff at Great Neck Vet ~ Elizabeth and Kitty Bear

I saw Great Neck recommended on a Facebook chat and called that day to see if I could get my dachshund, Barbie, in to have her mouth looked at as her face was slightly swollen. They saw her that day. I cannot express how incredibly kind and professional their staff is! They were so sweet with Barbie - every single person has been so sweet. Barbie had dental surgery and they called prior, during and after to update and check on her. Their prices are very, very good - especially for the quality of care. I cannot say enough positive things about them.

Highly recommend!!! If you want a vet that ACTUALLY cares about your pup, call this facility!!! We had a dog in our care that got a superficial cut on the top of his foot . Although superficial, we knew he needed a professional to clean the cut and glue it. After reaching out to multiple vets and explaining our situation and being denied multiple times, we reached out to great neck and they were willing and ready to help us in the matter of 30 minutes . I am so thankful for them and how kind and helpful they were !

We were thrilled with our experience at GN Vet! Everyone was so friendly. The technician (physician's assistant) was SO knowledgeable and helpful. I only wish I had gotten her name! Dr. Braer was also wonderful- of course very knowledgeable and a great bedside manner. I love how it feels like a small operation and not a "factory", and that they allow in-person visits and are not still curbside only. So happy we found this vet for our pups!

The entire staff at Great Neck Vet Clinic have been nothing but wonderful since our first emergency work-in visit. Everybody has been friendly, quick acting, informative, and professional. Dr. Braer has seen my cat for work-in appointments twice now and both times has been amazing to work with, I always leave happy, well-informed, and with a healthy and grateful fur baby. If you want to ensure you take your fur kids somewhere you can trust, definitely check them out. You won’t regret it!

I was recommended by a friend. I was hesitant because the office is a bit farther than I would prefer. However, I fell in love with them upon my pups first visit. My dog was fearful and hesitant. The tech took extra time to try to make us comfortable. They were very knowledgeable and patient. Since then we’ve seen 2 different vets. I was very pleased with both of them. My second visit they ran a few minutes behind because the vet had an emergency csection. The tech made sure to keep me updated as my time is also valuable. Even tho the vet was 10 mins late, they kept me updated. By far one of the best offices I’ve had the pleasure of patronizing.

Absolutely amazing people who helped out my best friend and her most beloved fur friend. She has very intense PTSD and they let us have a whole separate room to be in and wait, which was so incredibly kind. While so many people judge homelessness and make horrific assumptions, they were nothing but sweet and kind and calm and patient with her anxiety and inevitable panic attack during the process of being seen in an emergency situation. We were kept up to date during every single step of the process, and Nichole even brought her food and water and tissues, she really couldn't have been more compassionate. The head vet, whose name I've unfortunately forgotten, came in and spoke with us at length and even checked on her ears and teeth, going above and beyond to go over every detail of her health in addition, just to help calm my friend and let her know that her dog was in great health and obviously very well looked after, despite living outside. They offered so much assistance and made plans for future care without judgment or shame about her life circumstances, and I couldn't be more impressed at their empathy and professionalism.The ONLY complaint I had was the extreme difficulty of parking, which sounds like it's mostly due to work the city is doing nearby, but I had to circle the block about eight times before I could finally find a place to park and that alone is my singular complaint.They really were amazing, and even my own vet makes us wait outside during the pandemic so I cannot begin to explain how much this care was deeply, deeply appreciated. Had we sat outside to wait for results during tropical storm Elsa it would have been far more traumatic, but allowing us a single room where she could hear what was happening was one of the kindest acts I've seen in a very long time, as I'm sure they had to sterilize it afterwards between people and pets, and I just wanted them to know how greatly it was appreciated. I shall forever recommend your clinic due to this show of magnificent professionalism and kindness.

Great customer service and quality pet healthcare. It is a bit pricey/expensive in this area but cheaper than animal hospitals or pet ER of course. Staff was always very friendly and helpful, very kind to me and my weenie dogs.

We’ve been taking our dog Rex to Great Neck Vet for the past year and a half and we can’t imagine going anywhere else. They take such great care of our pup and are incredibly responsive any time I call with a question or need to schedule a visit. We’ve had nothing but wonderful interactions with their vets, techs and front desk staff. Our pup is healthy and happy thanks to their incredible team.

It was a good experience. I called Sunday and left a voicemail about my cat’s health issue and, someone from the office called me Monday morning and set up an appointment for Monday evening. It was a quick turnaround. The actual appointment went smoothly, and the veterinarian, Dr. Hollowell, communicated effectively with me regarding the treatment plan for my pet.

After years of driving over 30 minutes to a very big named practice in our area we decided to switch to Great Neck Vet, just a few doors down from our home. I cannot say enough nice things. Their process is so much more efficient with checking in given covid and everyone has been so kind. After our first appointment we got a hand written card from our new doctor and a follow up call. So personable! We’re touched by the care our old girl gets now. Finally also getting her medications via shots which we asked for for years at our other practice. Thanks so much!

Great Neck Vet has taken great care of our new puppy! We've worked with several different vets at the practice and each doctor took plenty of time to talk to us about our concerns and answer any questions. Not only are the doctors great, but the entire staff is fantastic to work with. Happy we found them!

Had the BEST experience @ Great Neck V.C. It was my pets 1st appt. due to not feeling well. They were able to see him within a few days. I was super impressed when I checked in via phone how detailed their questions and concern was for my dog Ozzy. There was very little to almost NO wait period. Everything flowed from check in to check out. Dr. Lottinville was very personable and caring. I received a personal message the following Mon. checking on Ozzy then received a card and picture of my pet by mail when I came home from work!! They def. are ON TOP of things there and so friendly. I would def. trust them with my pets and refer anyone there! Great job guys!

The providers and staff at Great Neck Veterinary Clinic simply amazing. I can think of no better place to bring my furry family members (meaning my pets, as opposed to some of my counterculture twenty-something relatives who prefer the back to nature au natural look! My tuxedo cat Socks is very nervous about vet's visits, but the staff always put him at ease and treats him with kid gloves. Highly recommended!

I recently moved to Virginia Beach and had to select a new vet. It’s been stressful moving during COVID, however, Great Neck veterinary clinic made my dogs visit very easy during these crazy times and they were extremely pleasant. Although we are new to the area, we’ve used other vets in the past. GNVC was very professional, yet had a family feel to the visit. Highly recommend.

They went above and beyond to make my baby feel comfortable. They made me feel comfortable by discussing the breakdown of charges with me prior to any services rendered. It was great. Everyone was so nice. They sent my dog home with a goodie bag. Am going to be switching my other dog to this vet

I am in town for a short period of time and my dog was having seizures. This was a really stressful situation and I needed help. Great Neck was the closest vet I could find. Dr. Hofmeister and her staff were amazing! They got us in to the office right away (with great Social Distancing Procedures). I got follow up calls over the next two days to check on my dog and offer advice. I would highly recommend Dr. Hofmeister and Great Neck Veterinary Clinic!

We had just moved to Virginia Beach in May and during that time are elderly cats health deteriorated. We brought Mina to Great Neck Veterinary Clinic where they provided her with the best care and helped her cross the rainbow bridge. They made the whole process easier. They were kind and thorough. They even mailed a card a week later that had our cats paw print pressed on it.

We tried this office because of it's great reviews. So glad we did! They were so sweet to our little fur baby. Made a huge deal out of him. Made him and us feel so valued. They spent SO MUCH time with us teaching us how to provide the best care. We were not just another client. They showed him around the office to acclimate him so he wouldn't be scared. He LOVED the treats. We cant wait to go back and neither can our baby.

It was the best decision I ever made switching to Great Neck Veterinary Clinic! I rescued a Pomeranian (Skyler) from South Korea and he is extremely fearful which causes him to be aggressive. Everyone at GNV is so understanding and they are working with me to come up with a plan so Skyler's anxiety is reduced. All the staff and doctors there are the best!

I highly recommend Great Neck Veterinary Clinic. My Dog “Meadow” has been a patient there since she was a pup..she will be 4 in in April. Recently she ate something toxic and it immediately effected her liver and her body was was shutting down. They kept Meadow there and went right to work..if not for there immediate attention to Meadow I TRULY believe I would have lost her..she was hospitalized for a couple of days after for fluids but the initial compassion and knowledge of The Great Neck team are her angels..Thank you for everything🙏🙏

Our dog received great care while we lived in Virginia Beach. We moved to California two years ago and we recently needed a signed copy of our dog’s vaccines for an upcoming move to Hawaii. Great Neck Veterinary promptly responded to our request and sent the signed vaccines. Great customer service even two years later.

My pup was not feeling so well after consuming some bad things, I brought her in no question got her taken care of and gave me options to get her after hours care if necessary. The doc also gave me her card and told me to contact her personally if after hour care was needed so she could be in the loop with everything. As a business owner myself I know giving a client the option to contact anytime is a big deal. You can tell the doctors here don’t just clock out, they are actively thinking about the care of your animal even when they are home. Highly recommended 5 stars. Staff very friendly !

Our dog wags her tail from the minute we arrive to when we drive away. Dr. Hollowell & her team of doctors and incredibly staff each are exceptional in their knowledge and care. In addition When our dog unexpectedly needed ACL surgery they knew exactly where to send us where our dog received a perfect operation. We’ve been clients for 15 years and highly recommend.

This place is incredible. I brought my 15 yr old dog, Ginger, there until her passing, 7 years ago. She was very sick and the way they handled the whole affair was personal, giving and caring. The staff and doctors were remarkable and they even sent us a sympathy card with all employees personal signatures & comments. The year before Ginger past she gave birth. It was the only liter she ever had & she was 14 yrs old. She had 2 girls, Chloe & Tuaca. They have been to Great Neck Vet. only, with Dr. Gale. She is fabulous. Gentle but firm all in one. Recently I and several others rescued a dog that was running loose in the middle of a very busy Shore Dr. We rushed this animal in the office and they immediately attended the needs of the animal until he was stable enough for the SPCA to pick him up. We explained the situation to them & i expected them to ask who was going to pay for the visit. THEY NEVER DID. THEY SAVED THIS ANIMALS LIFE WITHOUT COMPENSATION. This was an exhausting, emotional, & frustrating event made better by the kindness & generosity of Great Neck Veterinary. Thank You All over & over again. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 10 stars

When Max, our beautiful orange tabby cat, got sick, our veterinarian did everything she could to identify the problem and put him on the road to recovery. There was genuine concern on her face and the staff reflected that attitude as well. She accurately identified and effectively treated the root cause of Max's illness. To our delight, our precious Max fully recovered. It was a joyous day when my husband and I put him in his carrier to return home to enjoy life with us and his cat family. I highly recommend Great Neck Veterinary; a clinic that truly cares.
