Wantagh Animal Hospital

Thieves. they might as well be holding you up… disgusting…the prices for their services are ridiculous. I go elsewhere now

I have been taking my pets to Wantagh Animal Hospital for many years. I find all the vets here very knowledgeable and patient. They are able to confidently answer all of my questions and are kind and gentle with my animals. The prices are fair and the office staff is very pleasant.

Very caring in

The only good thing about this place is Dr. Fischman. It doesn’t make up for the complete lack of professionalism and courtesy of the office staff. Today really took the cake. We had to bring in our cat for her annual examination and shots. She’s a bad patient so they recommended that we give her a sedative beforehand. We did that and arrived 10 minutes early for the appointment. It got to be almost 30 minutes after the scheduled time and we’re still in the waiting room. By now, the sedative has worn off and my cat is getting very restless in her carrier. We asked the front desk staff what was going on and they told us the vet had an emergency. They couldn’t tell us that when we got there? After making a stink, we finally got to see a different vet but by then, my cat was in no mood to cooperate and the sedative had worn off. They had the nerve to tell us that it’s like a doctor’s office and that emergencies happen. Well, try telling that to a frightened cat. The upshot is that we drugged the cat for no good reason and she never got the annual exam she should have had although they charged us for it. All she got was a rabies shot. By the way, they had the TV in the waiting room on very loudly. Several people asked them to turn it down, but they refused. A woman at the desk said that she wanted to see how the show ended. Lady, you’re not there to watch TV; you’re there to do your job. It’s amazing that the staff had time to talk among themselves about the show but couldn’t be bothered to tell us that they were going to be late. This isn’t the first time the office staff has screwed up like this with our pets (one time I sat there with my dog waiting 30 minutes for the bill; they never once asked me why I was there and I’d still be waiting if I hadn’t said something) but it will be the last. They’ll be going elsewhere from now on.

My cat got sick. Moving from west Babylon to Seaford I did not know any vets looked at pet insurance on the web got quotes for cat urinary infection it was 3000 $.I suspected my cat might have this problem. My girlfriends parent used this vet 20 years ago so I called up got an appointment. Took him to the Wantagh animal hospital. Met a very compassionate staff they had to keep him 5 days. They sent me home with a special diet for him and some medicine. After that he seems to be ok. I like this hospital not only did they cure him but for about 650 $ with medicine and special food. I highly recommend this place.

I love this vet practice and everyone there. The entire staff truly cares for the animals and I have never felt taken advantage of or ripped-​off when it was time to pay.
