He's Alpha... But Needs to Be! – While Dr. Fisch will never tell you this, part of the reason he's so gruff and brusk (and also why he's such a good vet) is that dogs respect that kind of thing. If he was all touchy-feely and "there-there" cuddly, dogs would just assume he's easy to dominate. He can't let dogs (or owners) dominate him, or he won't be able to do his job. Dr. Fisch is always calm, sober and meticulous.... and while that mien might put off some people, it's really what's best for the animals in his care. I trus... read more

I love this doctor and would never go anywhere else – I've been going to Dr. Fisch for over 10 years now and I swear by him. Yes, in the beginning he was a bit gruff, but don't be fooled by that, he's a real sweetheart and his love for his job and the animals is clearly obvious. We just had to put our beloved cat to sleep ....it was heartbreaking, but because of his compassion and his assistant, Millie, they made that day tolerable for us. When we get new kitties down the road, I will take them to Dr. Fisch. I cannot say eno... read more

Very caring vet – I ended up finding Dr. Fisch through a friend that lived in the neighborhood. Shr takes her cat there and said that he is great with her. When we got our english bulldog, he had all sorts of eye problems. Dr. Fisch has been very attentive and has gone out of his way to squeeze us in for appointments at the last minute, etc. He also did a great job referring us to a "doggy eye doctor." I would highly recommend Dr. Fisch to anyone who is looking for a vet that actually remembers your pet's name and their hist... read more

An excellent diagnostician, highly recommended. – Dr. Fisch may seem a bit brisk at first, but he genuinely cares about the animals with which he works. An excellent diagnostician, he will never tell you to opt for a procedure that you don't need (which is great in New York, most places will make you pay a lot of money for tests and surgeries that aren't necessary for the health of your pet.) I trust him with my animals completely, and of the many vets with whom I've worked, he is absolutely the most competent doctor I have ... read more

two thumbs up – When I first got my dog I asked around the neighborhood for recommendations for a vet. Absolutely everyone loved Dr Fisch! They gave me a warning that he has quirky brisk human interpersonal skills but that all of their animals loved him and he was great at diagnoses. 10 years later I would never dream of going anywhere else- even now that I have moved out of the neighborhood I still travel back to his office. Dr Fisch helped us through a horrible life threatening surgery, has answer my calls in the middle of... read more

This is the worst vet in the city. – This vet was rude and inattentive to my dog. When calling for a follow-up he didn't remember or care to review her file and bloodwork and mistook her for a male (or a completely different patient). Very unhelpful and indifferent to the minor she she needed. Hoping the first visit was a mischance of the service, I returned a few months later to even more discourteous, curt service. Even worse, the doctor mistakenly tried to correct me when i described the meds he had given me our last visi... read more
