About the New York Veterinary Specialty & Emergency Center

Long Island's premier facility for veterinary medicine.

In the past decade, both human and animal medicine have seen rapid increases in knowledge and major developments in technology. Veterinary medicine now can utilize the same sophisticated diagnostic tests, such as MRI and CAT Scans, and treatments, such as total hip replacement, as human medicine. These procedures require specialized equipment and advanced training. NYVSC has veterinary specialists in numerous disciplines to provide a needed backup for your primary care veterinarian. Working together your family veterinarian and NYVSC specialist can offer your pet the utmost in medical care, leaving your pet happy and healthy.


Just as your family doctor would refer you or a member of your family to a specialist when the need arises, your primary care veterinarian now has the ability to extend this service and care to your pet. The NYVSC works closely with your family veterinarian who has previously treated and intimately knows your pet. Together they form a partnership that greatly expands the diagnostic and surgical options available to your pet, returning them to health quickly and comfortably.


When your pet needs surgery:

After an initial physical examination your primary care veterinarian will discuss all your options with you. When necessary he/she will arrange a consultation with one of the many affiliated specialists with the NYVSC, who will perform the diagnostic and surgical procedures at their clinic or at your own veterinarian’s hospital. During the post-surgical period it is just as important to maintain this team effort between you, your veterinarian and the NYVSC Specialist. They will discuss the aftercare procedure with your pet’s veterinarian and you. It is imperative to follow these instructions because the aftercare is 50% of the healing process, allowing you and your pet to get back to your healthy and active lifestyle

Thank you so much for fixing my leg. It has only been a week and I already feel like I am getting back to my old self. Although I seemed nervous, I knew I chose the right doctor. I can't wait to run around again without pain.

Dear Dr. Carb & All the Staff

I just wanted to say "thank you" for everything you have done and all the special care you have given me - all the special "treats," laying on your laps and making me so comfortable.

My brothers & sisters say "thank you" too. They can't wait until I can play again.
