Recent written feedback often describes Dr. Blair and the staff as knowledgeable, attentive, friendly, and especially good with cats that are nervous at vet visits.

A less favorable review raised concerns about a cat being taken to a back room for part of an exam, communication around a blood pressure procedure, and charges that were not clearly explained in advance.

Fantastic vet, whole office is knowledgeable and friendly. I have 2 rescue cats that are terrified of other people and have done poorly at other vets. They love Dr Blair and always do well - she is great. Thank you!

Great experience for our initial visit with Dr. Blair and the entire staff. Everyone was incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and made us feel completely at ease.

I brought my cat here twice. The first time went okay. I was a little nervous how they took him out of the room for a lot of the actual exam work, but it seemed fine. The second time, they took my cat to the back room and I heard him howl very loud and I had no idea what was going on - I have had him for 6 years and have never heard him make this noise. They said that he got very anxious with the blood pressure machine, something they had not asked my permission for nor had they performed the first time around. Now, what they will tell you is that this is a "standard procedure" for cats entering the later years of their lives, and I must have approved it due to agreeing to a 'full exam'. But, if that's the case, what's the cutoff? The year prior no, but this time yes? Nothing was disclosed to me, and they still proceeded with charging me $86 for the procedure anyway, despite putting my cat into a state of discomfort. Look, I get that they have a business to run, but this felt like a money grab up and down with no consideration for my cat's comfort, nor mine. Upon discussing with the receptionist at check-out, she had to confer with someone over video call who was out of view and I could not see. It felt like something out of the show "Severance". Anyway, while trying to write a balanced review here, I would say if you absolutely need vet care, I still do think Dr. Blair is knowledgeable and knows what she's doing (hence 2 stars and not 1), but the business practices employed by her office feel underhanded. If you must come here, ask for estimates of everything to be performed up front!! Especially if you are coming for a second time - the first time visitor discount goes away and the cost of a visit more than doubles. As for me, I have elected to vote with my wallet and will be seeking veterinary care elsewhere. Additional context: my mother was a veterinarian, and I lived in animal practices for the first 12 years of my life. They should not be removing your pet out of your view for basic procedures.

We adopted our sweet Turtle from the NYC ACC in November. We switched to this vet as they were on the recommended vet list, and offered a free first visit if you adopted from ACC(within a certain timeframe after adoption) So glad we switched vets. We love Dr. Blair. It’s so nice to finally have a vet in NYC who understands cats and clearly loves what she does. She is so caring, informative, humorous, and kind. 10/10!
