Urban Vets Animal Hospital offers comprehensive general medical services for pets in the East Village/Lower East Side. Our experienced team, led by Dr. Howard Cohen, specializes in treating a wide variety of pets, including exotic animals. We provide wellness exams, dental care, microchipping, house calls, and more, ensuring your pet receives the highest standard of care from routine check-ups to advanced treatments.

Wellness exams are crucial for spotting medical problems early and maintaining your pet's overall health. During these exams, we discuss dental care, nutrition, behavior, diseases, and vaccinations for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, pocket pets, and other exotic animals.

For seriously ill pets or those who cannot travel, we offer house calls, bringing compassionate care to your home. Our house call services include after-hours visits, pet transport, and pet sitting by appointment.

Proper dental care is essential for your pet's health. We provide regular dental cleanings, polishing, extractions, and home care education to prevent diseases like gingivitis and periodontal disease.

Microchipping offers a permanent form of identification, helping reunite lost pets with their families. Although it is not GPS, it allows shelters and vets to scan for owner information.

We also provide domestic and international health certificates for pet travel. Our Accredited Veterinarian recommends contacting our office several months in advance to ensure all requirements are met.

Additionally, we offer cancer treatments. For more information, please call our office or send us an email.
