My husband found Syosset Animal Hospital from an online Google search. Our goldendoodle puppy, Charlie, has been going since he was 8 weeks old. Dr. Gothelf has been with me every step of the way as Charlie is my first dog. He is very thorough, attentive, and honest with his recommendations. He doesn't charge for every little thing and is really nice/friendly when handling Charlie. Charlie actually likes going to the vet and doesn't want to leave! Dr. Gothelf performed Charlie's neuter and dewclaw surgery. Charlie came home with a cone and his hind legs were bandaged up. He didn't have any complications or infections post-surgery and recovered within a week and a half. Syosset Animal Hospital also had a Halloween event and we were able to bring Charlie in his pirate costume to get a bag filled with treats and a toy. It was his first time trick-o-treating and he still plays with his toy! Overall, Syosset Animal Hospital is a great place to bring your pet for preventatives, surgery, or Halloween!

My brother found this place through a colleague. I was in need of a good vet. My dogs are like my children so i dont trust just anyone. I have to say my consultation with dr G was great. He reminded me of my vet who i had before. Yes i have a lot of dogs but i do look for someone to be honest with me. Im not looking for a vet that charges for everything. He really helped me out by letting me know who needed what and who didnt so i can save some money. Much appreciated and hope to continue to use his services for the future. Office people are very nice as well. Its far for me but ill make the drive for my dogs

My 9 month old Havanese boy has been cared for By Syosset Animal Hospital since he was 8 weeks old. The doctors are caring and take the time to explain everything from vaccines, food, exercise, and prevention. This is a wonderful animal clinic.
