JH Our dog Scout wouldn't have made it through the past year without the medical expertise and outstanding care we got from Dr. Shorter and his staff. I was alone with her (my husband was out of town) when she developed acute pancreatitis. This happened on a Sunday when the vet's office is officially closed but they were available to me 24/7 and helped me get Scout to the office for the emergency care she needed. She was then diagnosed with Cushing's disease late last year and is doing very well under Dr. Shorter's watchful ... read more

Sprite I am writing this as a heartfelt recommendation for Dr. Kalvig. If you have a pet and if live anywhere near to NYC, by all means---make your way to her office! Dr. Kalvig cared diligently and well for my two cats who lived-somewhat surprisingly--to the ages of 18 and 20. I cannot imagine that I would have had as many long and happy years with them had I entrusted their care to any other doctor. Dr Kalvig is thorough, pragmatic, and caring--deeply concerned with the well being of the animals in her care while also show... read more

Veterinarians that you should see I've have had the pleasure of knowing Dr. Barbara Kalvig for over 25 years. We first met when I had my first Shih-Tzu named Benson, and Dr Kalvig was working with the late Dr. Howard Kessler. She was the ONLY veterinarian in his practice that actually gave my dog a comprehensive checkup and our relationship started there. Ben died at 10 years of age from a quickly spreading cancer, and eight months after his death, I adopted a Shih-Tzu pup who I named Jerry. 
Dr. Kalvig became Jerry's vet ... read more

Kalvig & Shorter Veterinary Associates is the best. I consider it the gold standard for veterinary care. Dr. Kalvig and Dr. Shorter are true experts in their profession. Also, the office is beautiful and the service is exceptional. My dog, Oscar is like my child. I would never take him anywhere else. Aside from their expertise, Dr. Kalvig and Dr. Shorter are true American heroes. They were at Ground Zero on 9/11 leading the animal rescue efforts.
