    Dr Stafford is the best. I don’t trust anyone else to take care of my babies! I live in Queens and have had experience with multiple vets here… it’s 100% worth the 4 hour drive, knowing my pups in the best hands!!

    I have not decided whether or not to bring my birds here or not. They obviously care a lot about dogs and cats. And they will see rabbits and ducks and chickens. However the unfortunate thing about having ornamental /heritage chickens is that you have animals that mean as much or more to you as peoples dogs do but the whole animal world feels like they are somehow more disposable. So while this vet here has been so much more understanding and helpful than Cornell University I and all of the other crazy chicken people are still pretty much on our own with issues dog people get addressed just because their animal are the right species. My birds learn step up, step down, to jump up on places I call them to, and then get down again when asked, the two oldest can turn off my cell phone when they dont like it and my four year old can fly to my hand on cue. My birds can live from six to twelve years. They deserve as much as your dog is all I am saying.

    Ive been going to OVH for many years, through different ownership and veterinarians, and have always been happy with how pets and humans alike are treated. (Even my fear-aggressive dog does fine with checkups!) The manager, Stacy, has got to be a big part of that continuity, as shes the one face I can remember being a constant all these years, and shes always on top of things. Hats off to everyone at OVH for running a tight ship with a welcoming smile.

    What a kind compassionate caring team. Dr Stafford and her team cared for my Bentley for years. When it came trine for him to leave us they were so caring and supportive. Wonderful team of folks. Thank you for all you did for Bentley.

    They have been great with my dog and myself. They send an email when my dog needs a booster or PE. I like that.They are always accommodating when my dog is in need. They are fast, friendly and professional. I travel from New Hampshire to ensure my dog gets the best care. I highly recommend this office!

    We had just arrived to town for vacation. After the long 3 day road trip, our 2 aussies were excited to run and play catch in a field...until our 1 yr old puppy pocked herself in the eye! It didnt look good, but not really bad so we werentsure if she needed treatment. We had no idea to call. Within minutes the property caretaker had called a friend who recommended Dr Joan Puritz. She came in after hours and with the other vet on 24 hour emergency call, checked out the eye, said it was good we brought her in, and got immediate treatment started, which probably prevented longterm effects like scar tissue. Within days of taking the meds her eye looked normal again. We were so impressed with the stellar care she got and the caring, professional care and friendliness of the docs, even after hours. We are so grateful. If we lived in town, she would be our regular vet. Thanks Docs Joan and Josh!

    My parents had to bring in my dog, and the staff were so kind and helpful. They did their best to make my old dog comfortable and helped my family when he was being put to sleep. Super sweet staff, thank you again for helping sweet Jake cross the rainbow bridge.

    I cannot even begin to express my gratitude for this incredible team. From the front desk staff, to the techs, office manager and, of course, Dr. Schafer, they are all beyond incredible and talented. Unfortunately, we had some traumatic events take place recently with our puppy, Jalen, which has led to several recent visits and much more to come. Dr. Schafer and the staff have been extremely supportive and helpful throughout this whole situation and we are very grateful for their urgency and the outstanding care they provide for us. They took the time to explain everything in detail and answer all of my many questions. If you are looking for a veterinarian, I couldn’t recommend a better place to go. I can full heartily say that they love our pup just as much as we do and have truly gone above and beyond to ensure that Jalen is still able to live a long and healthy life.Thank you a million times to the Oneonta Veterinary Hospital staff!! Beyond thankful for every one of you!

    The rates for regular check ups are reasonable, and relatively transparent and on par with other vets in the area. I like the drive up window for picking up meds if we need them. The cost for dental surgery felt really high to me, and so did the cost of a spay/neuter.. though I did book the neuter through them, and I felt like my dog was well taken care of. I’m gonna need to get a couple of estimates for the dental. I know they were careful to make sure that they overestimated so I wouldn’t be surprised by any charges. I appreciate that. They do have this new program where you can put money down as savings over time so that it’s available when you need it. Kind of like vet care layaway.

    I had to bring my cat in for an emergency visit, so needless to say I was pretty overwhelmed. Stacy, Jorge, and Aiden were all wonderfully kind to me and did a great job accommodating me and my cat. I appreciated Dr. Stafford for seeing us on short notice and providing care for us in our time of need. Thank you Oneonta Veterinary Hospital for your services, care, and kindness.

  • Review 14 (2022-01-10 - Rating: 5)

    I brought my dog in thinking I may never bring him home again and Dr Shafer was beyond on top of it. Not only was I able to take him home with somewhat an eased mind as she explained everything to me very well and believed it wasnt life immediately threatening Each time I called with follow up questions she got back to me very quickly. And my dog is doing much better. Very friendly and I can tell she genuinely cares about the animals she treats

  • Review 15 (2022-09-30 - Rating: 5)

    The doctor was very kind and knowledgeable. She had no trouble answering my questions and didnt act like I was annoying her like my previous vet did. I felt as though my opinion mattered and was allowed to make informed choices for my pet. Im so glad I switched to this vets office!

  • Review 20 (2022-10-05 - Rating: 4)

    They take well care of my two dogs Buddy and Lilly for several years. I have my dogs vaccinated with them, and they offer the mercury free rabies vaccine. I have companion/hunting dogs/watch dogs, ancient foreign breed, that get into stuff, and so they need a lot of vaccines, My smaller dog Lilly received medication for Lyme Disease and that worked, and the same medication also seemed to get rid of her ear mites for still many months, maybe it was coincidence. My dog Buddy several years ago had a weird fungus on his head, and the VETs medication worked even though it smelled disgusting, (I cook for my dogs and give them doggie vitamins I purchase elsewhere so my dogs have yet to need a lot of care since they are quite healthy, but I know I can count on the Oneonta Vet Hosp.).The Oneonta Vet Hospital also has a small, narrow, long hilly adjacent off-leash dog park next to the parking area, that is good for dogs that are not space conscious, as the steep hill gives good exercise, and there is a flat area on top. They would have more dogs using it if they had RSVP since some dogs are better off using it not during open time, but it just has open time. I cannot give the Oneonta Veterinary Hospital five stars because I am against spay/neuter, and they do not have a breeding facility program like some Vet Hospitals do. They also do not have much information on dog nutrition, holistic health for dogs, and I had to find that all out on different online veterinary nutrition/holistic websites dedicated to dogs.

  • Review 25 (2016-08-14 - Rating: 5)

    On a recent Saturday night, around midnight, our English Bulldog, Edith, was stressed after a long trip to visit relatives. She was having great difficulty breathing, and we feared she would not survive the night. After calling a local vets emergency number, we were referred to Oneonta Veterinary Hospital. It was there that we met Dr. Pam Rooney and Dr. Joan Puritz. It was their extraordinary efforts throughout the early morning hours that saved the life of our beloved, Edith! Their knowledge, and professionalism was so evident and for that, we are so grateful! The quality of the care Edith received was outstanding! How lucky we were to find such dedicated professionals when we needed them most!

    The doctors here are amazing! They truly care about the animals and go above and beyond to help. After my dog swallowed a sock Dr. Puritz told me what to do over the phone and helped successfully get it back up without taking any form of payment! To me, thats someone who really cares about my baby not the money! God bless your practice! Dr. Shirley Rufrano, D.C.

  • Review 34 (2019-09-07 - Rating: 5)

    This animal hospital has taken in two different stray cats Ive found over the years who were injured. The first one was a cat who would hang out with me during the cold nights while I was homeless, and the second was an injured/ maimed kitten I found on Main street.I just called them because Im finally in a place in my life where I can properly care for an animal, and they were extremely friendly and had a good idea for me since they currently didnt have what I was looking for.To the guy below who gave the review a week ago, I dont know who waits DAYS to take an obviously injured animal to the vet and then expects them to jump through hoops when theyre short staffed (and no. the vet isnt going to stop their SURGERY procedure to look at your animal, do you even know what surgery means?!), but he might consider it was his poor attitude that got a poor attitude from the staff. Ive always found their staff extremely friendly, even in the face of dire circumstances. I cannot stand people who have entitlement issues. If you were that bloody concerned about your dog, you would have driven the half hour to the other vet. When I found out my cat buddys paw was injured, when I was HOMELESS, I called and called and called and begged for rides for the injured animal. When I found the injured kitten, I begged the bus people to help me get the kitten to these lovely people.
