Can't say enough good things about Downtown Vet and the entire staff. They are knowledgeable, caring and give a level of personal service that I haven't found in other clinics. Our cats can be very difficult for others to handle and Downtown Vet was firm but gentle for their complete checkup. My kitties also loved that they got rewarded with treats! Very organized. Great support staff. Reasonably priced too. Thank you Downtown Vet for being here in Chelsea.

I first found Dr. C. W. Schaubhut through a friend’s referral at the East Village Veterinarian, where he cared for my ferrets with the same attention and respect he later gave my dogs. From the very beginning, he stood out for his honesty, compassion, and skill, qualities that are increasingly rare. His partner, Julie, also played a meaningful role in our lives. After the loss of our beloved chihuahua, she helped me, and especially my father, find another pooch. My dad named her Gizmo, after the one we had lost. She quickly became his constant companion and went everywhere with him. My father, a tough WWII Navy man, adored her and made it clear she came first. He once told a friend, “If you don’t wanna ride in my car with my dog, then don’t come.” 😂 Gizmo brought our family years of love and joy before passing at the age of 14. Their bond was so deep that when my father’s time came, he asked that her ashes be buried with him, and we honored that wish. Dr. Schaubhut never upsold, never pressured, and was always straightforward. He explained how to best care for our animals without ever gouging us, and his kindness toward both pets and people, especially my father, meant more than words can say. I have never found another veterinarian like him, and I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Schaubhut to anyone looking for thoughtful, honest care. We are grateful he is now at Downtown Veterinary Clinic, and I would encourage others to seek him out there.

My senior cat loved his visit today. Treated very gently. He had a complete checkup, which included fluids, and even though he’s around 18, he is lively and hasn’t napped yet since he came home. Reasonably priced; had to put my name on a wait list, but worth it.

I've been going to Dr. Schaubhut for my cats since 2000. He and Dr. Ficarra are excellent and caring. The staff is great as well.
