Kalvig & Shorter is best of breed. My 10 year old chocolate lab was a patient here, and I am amazed by their gift of impeccable veterinary service. Pre and post operative attention to detail, thorough reviews of medical history, compassionate, experienced and professional staff and that small town feeling that you are the only customer that matters in a clean and stress-free welcoming space are just a few of the things you will encounter at Kalvig & Shorter. When Delilah died, the entire staff was so supportive and they kept my spirits up with kind gestures that made an unbearable time a little bit easier. Since Ive been looking at new dogs to rescue, Dr. Shorter has reviewed their records and provided great advice on questions to ask. When I do get my new dog, Ill be excited to make Kalvig and Shorter a part of the family. In the meantime, I continue to recommend them to everyone!

We found ourselves in New York City enroute to Ireland with our two pets only to find the Vet we had booked, were not in a position to complete all the necessary paperwork (despite their previous assurances). Kalvig and Shorter were able to assist us at very short notice and compete the required examinations and paperwork. The reception staff were extremely professional and helpful, going out of their way to ensure we had multiple copies, produced in record time to ensure we met the USDA office hours and the Doctor was extremely thorough and professional. i would have no hesitation in recommending this practice for all your veterinary needs

My dog Chewy and I have been going to Drs Kalvig and Shorter for almost a year. They are amazing! Honestly, I wish there were more human doctors like them. Whenever Chewy is sick one of the doctors or nurses calls for a couple of days to check in and see how he is doing. Booking an appointment is very easy- whenever Chewy is super sick we havent had an issue getting in to see someone that day. Their location is very convenient and even though the doctors are not there late most nights there is someone answering calls until 10 PMish. I recommend them to everyone!

Dr. Kalvig is the most thorough, compassionate, and thoughtful vet I have ever come across. She complelty investigates the root of the problem, and gives you all of the information about your animals illness. She also really takes her time with ever patient and has a wonderful, soothing manner. Ive learned more about caring for my cat, and specifically ways to avoid vet visits, by feeding, and medicating her properly. Highly Recommend KSV Veterinary Associates.

This place is the best. The consideration, care and respect that they have shown my Scottish Terrier and his owner is amazing and most appreciated. The entire office is amazing. They are always available for my questions, they are well informed and have plenty of patience with my sometimes endless questions.Dr Kalvig is a wonderful doctor and I cannot recommend this place highly enough. I am grateful to have found Kalvig and Shorter as my veterinarian in NYC.

I have been bringing my dog, Ellie, here since I first got her last year. Everyone at Kalvig & Shorter has been friendly and knowledgeable and I can feel certain that my dog is in good hands! I even called once late at night worried because she had jumped off the couch and landed poorly on her leg and they talked me through it (first time pup-parent here..) and even called me the next day to follow up and make sure she was ok. Highly recommend!

My dog received wonderful treatment from Kalvig and Shorter Veterinary Associates since he was born. Drs. Shorter and Kalvig are both very knowledgable and extremely careful to provide detailed information and explanations, Perhaps most importantly, they are wonderfully caring and compassionate. The office staff is also always very attentive and helpful. I recommend them highly.

I have known Dr. Kalvig for almost 30 years. I have trusted her skill as a Veterinarian and have been comforted with her support. She is always willing to spend as much time as is necessary during an office visit, and is always available to speak to you on the phone. I would recommend Kalvig and Shorter Veterinary Assoc. without reservation.

Dr. Shorter and the whole KSV team is simply wonderful and so caring, we couldnt have found a better place to take care of our kittens. I was really worried about an operation and Dr. Shorter spent 20 minutes on the phone with me to walk me through it. I am a tough judge, and these folks are spectacular and loving people.

I had to find a vet quickly after my dog ate some chocolate. I could not have been more fortunate to have found Kalvig and Shorter. They were incredibly caring and professional, taking great care if my pup and communicating clearly and patiently. Ideal experience under the circumstances.
