They don't answer their phones anymore. Everything goes to voicemail and you'll be lucky if they call you back. Used to be a regular here and the service has declined to unacceptable levels in the last few years. Be better Bayside.

Since Covid, it's been curbside pickup for my dogs. I make an appointment, call when I'm in the lot and they do the rest. The vet calls me after her initial exam and we confer about treatment and meds. A competent, patient and caring staff that obviously love animals. It's an efficient system and my dogs always return happy.

I'm always confident that my dogs are getting the best care with reasonable cost. Twice, I have gotten on the spot care in emergency situations for my Black Lab. Very reassuring, accurate and caring! I give this business my highest regards!

This place is awesome. First time bringing my Min Pin here day after I took her to Apollo for surgery! Do not use Apollo. All they care about is money. Bayside is very caring, reasonably priced. And overall is all about your pets well being. Thank you.

Even though vet's have been slammed because of covid and the holidays they still saw my kitten with a upper respiratory infection same day! Also, they were so nice and caring and the prices were very fair compared to what I'm used to. I've been using the same vet for my special needs cat for a long time but I'm thinking about moving her care to this clinic.

Only giving them 2 stars because my they were very quick with my puppy's shots, and the staff was friendly. I'm down rating them because it takes WAY too much time to get them on the phone. Not even kidding you will probably need to call at least 5 times to get a hold of someone. Not happy with this service- you can at least answer and put someone on hold. This was the most convenient vet for me but because of this I'm going to switch to another.
