I have an asthmatic Bengal cat who can been suffering with asthma since we got her. My normal vet is twins in Bayshore but we were recommended here to a specialist my primary vet! I must say for a vet that has not the greatest reviews I'm really surprised because me and my wife are obsessed with Dr tumalty. He's the cat specialist there and he's amazing. Always informative and takes his time to answer any questions me and my wife ask. We never feel rushed and that's why we really like him. The staff is also very friendly a... read more

Excellent! Our experience has been beyond satisfactory. From the moment we walked in (in panic , fear n concern) we were greeted with kindness from a staff that was eager to ease our worry n give us the comfort we so desperately needed. (especially Tiffany). Our Mickey was rushed to this hospital 2x within a few days n they were not only tentative but immediately remembered us n Mickey. They were also familiar with her case. (They adore her n show her lots of love). After a short wait we encountered a super knowledgeable doc... read more

I'm giving this place 3 stars because the prices are insane. They took care of my dog. They made sure he was ok. But they go off your emotions. They hit you with $4000 estimates per day just to monitor your pet. It should be illegal what they charge. They even have credit card pamphlets waiting with QR codes so u can apply and swipe some more. It just cost me $14,000 for 6 nights in the vet..... that being said the people are very nice there. They did treat me and my dog well. They also did try and work with me on one of the... read more

Very positive experience with Dr. Sapienza who gave an honest assessment for our puppy's prognosis for retaining his vision. Shout-out to front desk staff, including Denise for being very thorough, kind and efficient.

Dr. Selner is phenomenal. He has dramatically increased the quality of life of my 13 yr old schnauzer who is living with a few significant chronic illnesses. He is honest, direct and so knowledgeable. I am eternally grateful to have found him.

Everyone was friendly to Britney. Totally my fault I was running a few mins late for her appointment, but they were able to accommodate us. No funny business, strictly medicine and professional veterinary care for my 15 year old Pomeranian. Britney needed to see Dr. Sapienza (Ophthalmologist) because of some clouding of her eyeballs. Britney's Veterinarian wasn't sure if it was cataracts, and referred us to LIVS. Thankfully, she doesn't have cataracts! The color of her eyeballs changed due to age. Her hair didn't turn... read more

It's better than Mount Saini for humans. The quality of the facility and staff was that of a great hospital. My dog needed an MRI and Spinal tap. They did the best they could to make the bill as least painful as possible. It's not cheap but you'll also get what you pay for. They found the right medication combination to keep my dogs epilepsy down considerably. You won't go wrong. 

Business response:

We appreciate your positive feedback, Thomas! Our team at LIVS is dedicated to providing top-notch care for your furry family members. Thank you for trusting us with your dog's health. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at (516) 501-1700.

Rocky, our beloved Standard Poodle was seen by his vet numerous times. He was having difficulty standing and was in intense pain. She said she could do no more for him and he needed a Neurological consult. He had his MRI the following day showing acute disc herniation C5-C6 and C7. Without surgery he would become paralyzed and ultimately euthanized. The surgery was done the same day as the MRI. Rocky's team was comprised of Neurologist, Dr. Mittleman and Dr. Catherine Loughin was his Surgeon. To put it simply, Dr. Loughin s... read more
