I have been bringing my pets to RAH for over 20 years and have always been extremely happy with their care for my dogs. I have never had problem making an appointment. The staff is very friendly, but most importantly, they will treat your pet as well as they would their own. I've experienced their kindness time and time again, and I am appreciative of people that care so well for animals. I'm a student once again, and though the prices are steep (which is why I had to take one star away), they genuinely try to offer all poss... read more

RAH has taken care of my cat in very serious emergency situations (including 2 overnight stays) and Dr. East has always been accommodating regardless of what time I come in/how busy it is when I get there. The reviewers accusing these guys of only being concerned with money is crazy--I've never been able to find a *human* doctor who treats me as well as the doctors here treat my cat. They do encourage a lot of testing, but other than a few mandatory ones (primarily for overnight stays) they've been understanding when there a... read more

I'm not sure I understand all the negative reviews here. Yes, I have had to wait here. And yes, it's not cheap. But, I am willing to pay for quality care for my cat, and I have no problem waiting when there are serious emergencies for other animals. Anyone who has taken their animal to a vet before knows how expensive they can be, and I actually think RAH is far more reasonable than people give it credit for. I adopted my cat from here and the staff constantly ask after her. Vet offices are very difficult places to run smoo... read more

This place is great! I adopted my retired racing greyhound, Sagan, about 4 1/2 years ago and have always gone here (referral from another greyhound owner). The vets are all rockstars (smart, patient, honest, and good at what they do). There are a few different ones but I usually see Dr. East or Dr. Repac (I've seen Dr. Kramer and a few others and they are all awesome). The place is very accommodating. You can often get a same day appointment (greyhounds are clumsy so this has come in handy...) and they will mail you result... read more

This practice is really something special among vets. First and foremost, they're great with my dog, who has had a number of health scares in the past few months. They're always very compassionate with her and Dr. K in particular is a miracle worker. They always call to check up on the patient a day or two after you've been in make to make sure she's on the mend and are very good at answering specific questions about your pet's health. On the logistical side of things, they are also terrific, sending out e-mail reminders abo... read more

I'm blown away that Yelp has such a low rating for Riverside: I adopted my kitty from them and could not possibly have received better service! It was my first time adopting a pet and the doctor was so happy I could give a home to Mamie that they waived the adoption fee. The staff was incredibly friendly and explained everything I might need to know about her (even told me her life story, where she was found and all). Hell, they even let me eat my bagel @ the desk while she received her chip. I'm deliberating adopting an... read more

Riverside Animal Hospital is by far the best animal hospital I have ever been to. They saved my puppy! I brought my 2 month old puppy to them when he was very very sick with pneumonia and bronchitis. My puppy stayed with them for 3 weeks and now months later, he is 100% healthy. I am so thankful and fortunate to have had such wonderful doctors like Dr. K and Dr. Raclyn. I would recommend all my friends to use their vet services. The staff is professional, helpful, and extremely friendly. They know every animal that walks i... read more

I like Riverside Animal Hospital a lot - they have great doctors and helpful, friendly front office staff. Both vets who've cared for my cats were great - patient, thorough, explained things clearly to me. They have a small number of rescue cats there - I got my tabby cat from Riverside. They also send e-mailed reminders when it's time for checkups, etc., which is convenient. Very happy with this vet and have recommended them to friends on the upper west side.

Really not understanding the negative reviews I'm seeing on here. I just started bringing my cat here and the staff has been fantastic. Jen, the vet that's been seeing my cat, has done a fantastic job of making both me and my cat feel comfortable. I've found my new vet for sure.
