The BEST Cat Hospital in NY!

by Bettina and Bubbles at Citysearch

This is the BEST cat hospital I have ever encountered. Dr. Soboroff and his staff are the most caring people I have met in any cat/animal hospital. The Clinic gives of a very trusting and relaxing ambiance. The front desk/reception staff are very friendly and efficient.

Dr. Soboroff truly listens to his clients very carefully and is extremely thorough in every step of the way to finding out all about my cat's health issue. I have had 2 of my cats treated by him. One unfortunately had a too progressed cancer that could not be saved and that I took to his clinic too late and had to be put to sleep...I could not have chosen a better place to have my cat put to rest. Dr. Soboroff really has his "know how" to deal with these difficult moments to let a beloved cat rest in peace... The second cat (kitty 11 months ) had a mass in her ear that has been treated and taken out surgically at his clinic. My cat after remained in his hospital for 4 days and every day Dr. Soboroff called me and gave me a thorough update about how my cat was progressing and doing well. This is definitely a cat hospital that I recommend to any cat lover. I live in NJ and I prefer bringing my cats to him, because I know they are in the best care! Check out their website!

Even Grouchy Cats Love Him

by smb nyc at Citysearch

Dr. Peter H. Soboroff was so amazing with my cat. I only wish I'd known about him earlier, as my cat has tried to attack two other vets and has thrown serious tantrums whenever she is visiting the vet. With Dr. Soboroff, she didn't even notice he was giving her shots. He was very patient with making her feel safe and calm, and he was also extremely thorough in helping me prepare for an uncoming plane flight with my cat, and listing out everything I needed to be aware of' giving me pads to line the carrier, etc. Because the office and the staff are all so pleasant and professional, I just expected the prices to be higher too, but it was actually cheaper than my previous no-frills vet in the area.

I HIGHLY recommend this place.

THE BEST CAT DOCTOR IN THE NYC METRO AREA

by TaraM at Citysearch

Dr. Soberoff has been taking care of my eight cats for seven years. Yes, I am one of those crazy cat ladies who would do anything for my cats! They are part of my family, so you can understand how finicky I am when it comes to their care and their health. Dr. Soberoff is THE ONLY VET I trust them with. He is incredible. He truly loves cats and his practice solely focuses on them, which to me makes a huge difference. For example, I don't have to share a waiting room with dogs, which can really upset my cats. Furthermore, Dr. Soberoff is very patient - as you can imagine I ask a ton of questions. Plus, he always greets them by their names, talks to them in a calm manner to soothe them during an exam, is incredibly knowledgeable and has a immense compassion for animals. I adore him and his team and would NEVER consider seeing anyone else because there is no one else better.

  • Pros: loves cat, very knowledgeable, kind, compassionate
  • Cons: not a one
