Long Island is large.  Equally large is the number of veterinarians to be found on the Island. While some of these will be eliminated due to distance, many more will still be within range of you.  Distance will not narrow down the field of potential vets as much as you would think. This is made more complicated if there is a mobile veterinarian around, as they can come to you instead of you going to them.

What should you do?  Well, frankly, you need to narrow down your list of potential Long Island veterinarians. Consider the following few things:

1. Check with your neighbors – Most people have at least one or two neighbors with pets. Find out who they have treat their pets. As fellow animal lovers they will tell you how satisfied they are with the service of their veterinarian.  This will help you narrow down your list.

2. Pay the vet a visit – Often you can find out all you need to know about a vet by simply visiting their clinic. Is the office a dung-covered animal den, or does it look like an actual medical office? Is the staff professionally courteous to you, even if the proverbial crap is hitting the fan at the office? Are people handled in a timely manner, or is everyone kept waiting out in the lobby with their sick pets for much longer than they should be?

3. Discover if the veterinarian makes housecalls – If you are a happy owner of several pets then you already know this kind of service will make you even happier. Why take all that time to get your pets stuffed into cages together when you could just get your veterinarian to come to them? You will likely want to move any housecall vet that is nearby to the top of your list for consideration. The kind of service provided by a housecall veterinarian could greatly benefit both you and your animals. Once the act of removing the pets from the home has been eliminated, both you and your animals will breathe a little easier.

The veterinarian you ultimately choose will likely be one you visit for years to come. Take your time, consider your options, and then select the veterinarian that you think will be the best for both you and your pet.
