Reviews of Riverdale Veterinary Group PC
Jamie Gill
Crystal was so helpful and polite on the phone helping me figure out what to do with my first ever puppy. Dr. Fried and all the staff are so kind and explain everything. I never feel rushed and leave happy. My dog loves all the attention she gets from the staff too. Don’t look anywhere else, this is the best vet office in town! 10/10
Jenny Parsard
Best service ever! My dog was experiencing itchy ears for a few days. Despite not having an appointment (which they normally don’t take walk ins) they allowed us to come in for a check up since my dog was uncomfortable and in pain. He’s been coming to this location since he was a puppy and is very comfortable seeing them. Thank you very much Riverdale Team!
Sharmaine Beecham
The Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. They greet you, you fill out paperwork and you are spoken to individually by a Staff member. At that time you go over any issues, shots needed etc. Afterwards your pet is taken into the examination room. You wait in the sitting room. When the Vet is finished he/she comes to talk with you. It was a good experience. My cat received her shots and she was fine. Business is booming there. There was a steady flow of pets coming and going. The place is also very neat with a restroom on the premises.

I started taking my dog there after spending so much money at another vet. they immediately treated him and gave him medication and now he’s doing better then ever. super friendly staff, very efficient and love their space.
Tashiku Brock
Just had annual check up and shots for my fur babies. Love this place. So professional and caring with the animals. Spotless, no bad odors, pet treats available. Expensive...but quality of service and preventative care of my babies is worth paying for. Glad to see PPE protocols in place. They even called the next day to see how the girls felt after shots.

I have 5 cats and I really enjoy bringing them to this clinic because everyone treats me and my cats with a lot of love and care and everything is explained and very understanding and the price is affordable. My cat knight had a hurt leg and my smallest cat Luna needed shots.everything went smooth. The decisions are made between me and the doctor and the nurses for what's best for my cats. The clinic is organized, clean and very friendly. I love going and my cats are all healthy thanks to you. Thank you everyone for the support and love.
Eduvigis Yoga
Although my Cavapoo may not like going for his check-ups I am grateful for this Vet and their staff as they're welcoming, professional, attentive and really careful and thoughtful with him and for what I've seen others as well.
Bea Moreno
Taking care of my cat, Smokey, now for about 8 years now. He was less than a week old when we rescued him. Great vets!
Selena Apelis
I have brought all 3 of my pups here for various ailments and follow ups. I have been very satisfied with the proper diagnoses and treatment plans. I was especially impressed with the way the vet assistants/ techs were able to handle my very difficult to handle dog for the exam. Riverdale Vet Group was also so good at getting me in for my emergency visit and called up right away when they had a cancellation. The employees there really follow up and follow through. Thanks!
lindsay bliss
Very friendly staff.
They were very great at calming me down when I got the wrong information from someone else. They are great with emergency rush ins and are worth every penny.
Xavi Mantilla
Have had our little Dino (Persian Himalayan) here since his first shots, rabies and vaccines as well as his neuter- the staff is great, the doctors are amazing and Dino does not get scared or skittish after visiting.
Marie Sherman
Very nice people and the first I have seen that was as clean and nice as this place. I felt so comfortable with the service. I went in feeling very nervous no knowing what was wrong with Lucii. The Doctor was extremely nice and took her time talking to me. I thank you for such good service.
I would definitely recommend Riverdale Veterinary Group PC to a friend.
Elizabeth Cecala
This vet office has always been really professional and kind to my family and our pets. I highly recommend going here
Ernest Csak
Dr. Fried and the staff at RVG are the most knowledgeable, professional, kind, and caring group I have ever encountered. Having been a dog owner my whole life, I have had numerous vets in my life, and they are above and beyond the best ever. RVG has been the only group to take care of the three dogs we currently own. They have such an easy way to explain simple and complex treatments that are either recommended or required. I have never had to wait a minute beyond my scheduled appointment time, but if I did have to wait, their waiting room is a very comfortable environment. From gourmet coffee, giant screen TV, soothing art work, pleasant wall decor, and impeccably clean, the vet experience has always been a pleasurable one for me and my family. I would strongly suggest bringing your furry friends to see Dr. Fried and the staff at RVG. We travel from over 20 miles away just to get their caring touch.
Marisol Pitre
Dr. Tucker, Josh and the rest of the staff at Riverdale Veterinary are great with my Kobe. Though he's very shaking when he sees the place, I just love that they take care of him especially when he gets his ear infections. Thank you for taking care of my baby so well.

I've used Riverdale Veterinary Group since we first got our Pembroke Welsh corgi puppy in May 2014. They have been not only professional and extremely meticulous in caring for our Freyja, they have made us feel like part of the family. From the follow-up calls after vaccinations to make sure she wasn't having a bad reaction to the humoring of anxious pet parents when Freyja was spayed, everyone on the staff has been amazing, kind, and caring.
I absolutely love Dr. Palmeri, Dr. Emmerich and all the staff at Riverdale Veterinary Group, and recommend them wholeheartedly.
Orlando “Oz” Ortiz
Worked here for 5 yrs. Great environment for pets. Great atmosphere for clients !
These people work hard and long hours.
Just make sure you guys get ur yearly vaccines and pre-screening diagnostics, so they can help prevent and treat accordingly !
The receptionist are amazing, the techs are phenomenal! And the doctors more importantly really do care.
Mustang Vern
I highly recommend this place they took my cat as I walk in after having a issue with my last vet place. They address the issue with my cat now he’s doing great 👍🏻 This will be my primary vet for my cat. …
Ro Khalil
I’m so happy I found the Riverdale Vet Group!! I was in a panic and almost went to a different vet with “okay” reviews. But I did a last minute search and found this group. Not only was it a 10 minute walk from my home, I was able to get in the same day! The staff and doctors here are quite accommodating and seem to genuinely care about their furry patients.
Veronica Melendez
It was our first time at the location. I was impressed with the service that we received. The staff was very friendly and very professional. The facility is very clean and welcoming. I asked a ton of questions and they were very patient in answering all of my puppy questions. 🐕🦺 …
Jane Doe
I can not say enough great things about Riverdale Vet Group and their caring staff. I’ve been taking my cats n dog there since they first opened and every visit has been a pleasure.
Dr Freid, Dr Tucker, the vet techs. and the women who work reception are superb!! They accommodate all emergencies. When calling to schedule a non emergency appointment they always get you an appointment the very next day. All doctors and staff are so professional, knowledgeable and caring. The doctor calls you the following day with all test results. I foster kittens and I take the crew there immediately. My two year old cat tore his nail on a few occasions and they see him immediately, surgically remove the nail and he is good as new. You know it’s a good vet group when your cats aren’t afraid once they arrive. Staff are quick to put you into an exam room so not to stress out the animals. The staff keeps the office running smooth and appointments are always kept on time. They give multi animal discounts and their prices are reasonable. Cat n dog owners, give them a try and you won’t be disappointed.
Victor Figueroa
I love ve this place the vets are amazing and do care about your animals. Very clean facility and friendly staff
Victoria P
The doctors and all of the staff at Riverdale Veterinary are knowledgeable, calm, warmhearted and I always feel like they have my pets' best interests at heart. They are truly animal lovers. When my elderly dog has needed special treatment, Dr. Fried has called the specialist himself to get me an immediate appointment. My dog can be aggressive, so when I come in they put me in an exam room so he won't have to be miserable in a muzzle. One day I had a total meltdown and they were just wonderful. My old dog is currently very sick but with their treatment, support and advice he is doing amazingly well. I could go on and on about the competence and kindness they have always shown. I feel like a member of a really great family. They have my highest recommendation.
Stephen .J
Dr.Fried has always been there for both my cats Midnight & Day since they were kittens. One day Midnight became very sick and she just didn't seem like her self. I was very nervous and worried about the outcome. Dr.Fried told me he needed to keep her and run tests, when he finished i was told me she was in kidney failure. I was devastated, but he told me he will do everything possible to help her respond to the meds. After a week i brought her home where she could be with myself & Day her sister. I contined with the treatments at home hoping for a miracle she was still not responding. It was one of the hardest decidsions that i had to make for her and i couldn;t see her in Pain any longer. Dr.Fried and his staff made everything so peaceful, compassionate & loving because i was an emotional wreck. Midnight & Day got me through the best and the worst days of my life after i lost my mom to cancer. I will never forget what Dr.Fried and his staff has done for me Midnight & Day.
Edwin Moya
The staff are very friendly and don't mind explaining their process or anything that has to do with the care of your pets. It was a simple wait when I went and it was pretty fast. I really like the service and the quality of care they provide. This might have to be one of the best vets I've ever been to.
Carol Li
Absolutely amazing place to bring your pets. They really care about them and take the time to understand your pets situation and help! They were able to squeeze my cat is (as a new patient too!) on a very busy day to get her eye checked. Dr. Tucker & staff were all extremely kind and thorough. They also called to follow up a week after her visit to see how she was doing- which I have never experienced at any other vet. Very thankful to have them and would HIGHLY recommend.
Cecilia Astacio
A friend recommended me this place, and I was so happy to have come here. At first my 4-month old miniature poodle was nervous, but then he warmed up and stopped shaking. The doctor and assistants were so caring and lovable to my puppy. Preventive care and wellness was very informative and vital for me to know. The office staff was very courteous and helpful especially when it was my first visit. Best of all, I received a follow up call the next day checking on my puppy. I highly recommend this place.
LK Garner
We have been bringing our dog to their practice since we adopted him 12 years ago. Dr. Freid is patient when answering questions. We've used their boarding services, once for an extended period of two weeks. The vet techs are amazing. Our pup was cared for very well. Finally our dog had to have surgery a few times and we are thankful for everything the entire practice did to make a very stressful time more bearable.
Eva Martinez
Thanks for taking such great care of Khali. Your staff was wonderful and gentle with our girl. We can't say enough about the great treatment she received!
Yammell Luna
I love this place. It’s very cleans and it looks like you are at pediatric clinic. The receptionists are sweet and Dr. fried makes your dog important. A friend of mine recommended this place because she takes her pets. You receive a call next day after your appointment in order for them to know how your pet is doing ok. I will be honest, they are a little pricey, but the way that they make you feel welcome, you are willing to pay for the service.
Brea M
Great vets here and we always feel like our Fuzz (cat) is always receiving the best care
Lori Perkins
We took our 22 year-old cat here for what we suspected was end of life treatment, and the staff was so compassionate. They gave us options, and time to discuss, and when we had made our decision, time to say good-bye. We could not have asked for a better experience at this very difficult time.
Anne Burgunder
Our cat got sick while we were out of town. I called RVG and they had the cat sitter bring her over that day. They were very attentive with following up with her progress that evening and clear about how we would know if we had to bring her back in. They arranged a procedure for her the next day. We appreciate how kind and thorough they were to the animal and the cat sitter, an 18 year old who had never had to take an animal to the vet on her own before. BTW, kitty is doing fine!
Blanca Martinez
I always take my yorkie here for her shots and care..
I called to get my yorkie in same day but unfortunately this place was booked and I had to find another vet which I regret going to.. Riverdale vet has always cared for my yorkie and they are not money hungry. The vet doctor took her time to explain to me of my yorkies condition. If you want good quality care for your pet, this is definitely the place to go.
C Lowe
I became aware of the Riverdale Veterinary Group when we adopted a rescue dog. Along with the adoption we got a free first check up for our new family member. RVG was on the list we had to choose from, and was the only listing in The Bronx.
The first visit was a totally positive experience. The place is clean from the waiting area to the examination rooms. The vets and staff are knowledge, patient, courteous, professional and friendly. Also impressive is that you get a follow up call from the office if your pet is treated for an illness.
I live in The Bronx and there are at least a 10 veterinary places that are much closer to me than the RVG. I've never thought about going to any other place. I happily travel past all of them to go to the RVG they treat my dog like her well being is not only important to me, but is important to them also. I find their prices to be reasonable and the service they provide is worth every penny.
If you are looking for a vet I highly recommend RVG. I guarantee you will not be disappointed. I know this picky person wasn't.
Diahna Rivera
I have been going to this vet for a while for both my kitties 😸. I would give them 10 stars 🌟if I could. They are professional, kind and caring. When my kitty of almost 23 years had to leave us They preformed so thoughtfully that I knew she would be OK. Once she passed over they were so sympathetic and understood the pain I was feeling. Thank you again for taking care of my baby.
MS F
I transferred here because they have great hours and boarding - and the staff really cared for and made my pet comfortable. One drawback though is the length of the wait to be seen. And post Covid the docs stand in the crowded room with you and shout oddly loudly about your pets treatment. Second issue is the lack of cleanliness and the smell. Not sure why they don’t clean more. Pre-renovation I wasn’t a regular patient yet and came in for an emergency. I remember their examining rooms looked and smelled very dirty - so strong I got queasy. After the renovation I thought they had new management and started coming regularly. It soon became the same smelly mess. Also I found fleas after taking my dog back from boarding there.
I hope they can prioritize the cleanliness standards we would want to see at a medical facility as much as caring for the pets.
Maryann McCabe
I have been coming to Riverdale. Vet Group (and most often Dr Fried) for nearly 15 years. I cannot say enough positive things about him and his practice. I have always felt that he is responsive to animal parents and — in addition to his expertise — I consider this factor central to his professionalism and success. My dogs and cats have also been seen by other veterinarians in his practice and they have proven to be very professional as well. The administrators and technicians are passionate about animals and are like family.
Larry Fata
They are very attentive to our pet's needs. The doctors will always get back to you when you call to consult on steps to take to deal with any illnesses. Getting medication is easy as is any special diet food. It's just a matter of calling and the meds and food are prepared for you, usually by the next day. Very convenient weekday hours (until 8) and weekend hours (both Saturday and Sunday).
Lesley Slepian
We have gotten excellent service at Riverdale Veterinary. I initially took my four-year-old rescue dog there when another vet wanted unrealistic fees for doing routine dental work. Since then my dog has gone there many times. They have been very accommodating about scheduling. The staff is great and very helpful. They are very kind to the animals . And have been very thorough with the examination and explanation of outcomes. Just looking around the waiting room you can see that they have been like family to many animal owners. I strongly recommend the group.
Sueheylee
Where do I begin? If you love your pet like it is truly a part of your family, you want to put their care in someone you trust. They are compassionate, responsive to my calls, always willing to schedule an appointment for me and refer to my cat by name all the time. They know this isn't just a cat. This is a member of the family with a chronic condition and I trust them with him fully.
Phyliss Wigginton
I recently lost me beloved cat, Zakk. Riverdale was so helpful and compassionate in dealing with his remains. I boarded Zakk with them when I traveled and they always took excellent care of them.
gaming kenneth
Best vet ever hands down. The doctors are so gentle and so informative and VERY HONEST. They want the best for your pet not just your money. Staff is super friendly and the office is clean and very inviting. If i could give 10 stars I would. My huge boxer dog loves them and so do we.
Andra Annette
A side from the staff treating you like family, They have cared for my dogs for 17 years and have never disappointed us. My dogs live healthier, happier, quality lives with their care.
Paloma Malta
I've been to the clinic twice with both of my cats and I will only keep going back because of Dr. Chang (available on Sundays and Mondays). Dr. Chang established a very good patient-doctor connection, thank you.
I'm giving 4 stars because the first time I went to the clinic I had a bad experience.
Jeff Christian
Super friendly staff that takes the time to really listen and explain things. A bit expensive, but I think it's worth it.
Lisa Salvati
I had been going to Dr. Fried for ten years with my previous dog. Now that I just got a new dog, I am back. He is the best. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. He’s worth the drive as I don’t live in Riverdale. His office space is immaculate and spacious and he is thorough and caring, along with his staff. I feel very comfortable with him and answers all your questions.
Sergio Mauri
They are very professionals and caring. I love the way they treat my dog. The place looks modern and is always clean. The ladies at the front desk are very sweet, and my dog is always excited to come here. My dog is a 7 months old puppy, and because traveling reasons, I had to take him to boarding for 4 days. At first I was worried on how my dog will feel. I thought that he might think that we abandon it at the clinic, but to my surprise when I pick him up, he was very happy. I think the techs took care of him very well. I am so happy that I choosed to be my dogs vet clinic.
Natassja Allen
This is my first furbaby so I only wanted the best care for her. I was recommended by a serious animal lover so I came. Every time I come I’m never disappointed. The staff is friendly. From the receptionist to the doctors. Even in a pandemic, they are making sure our furbabies are being taken cared of in the safest yet most caring environment. You won’t regret coming here.
Lobito 329
They are so professional, polite, and they treat my parrots with such compassion. I would recommend them to any pet owner. I won't go anyplace else. They also take care credit if you have it.....
Karolina Janik
When Dr. Fried talks to you about your pet, he makes you feel like you're the only patient in his clinic. It's very clear he became a veterinarian exclusively because he cares about animals. I absolutely trust Dr. Fried, his recommendations, and the decisions he makes and I'm not easy to win over as I've had some negative experiences at other clinics and am very protective of my sweet old dog. You'd be hard pressed to find a more dedicated veterinarian who's invested in your pet's well being.
Joann Fields
My experience at Riverdale Veterinary Group couldn't have been better. The waiting room was quiet, clean and comfortable. Dr. Chang was thorough in her exam and discussion of options. Treatment for my pooch was the least aggressive and least intrusive and It Worked! I received a follow up call a few days later to see how he was doing. The cost was very reasonable.
Quentin B
Amazing veterinary! They took the utmost care of my cat who needed pyometra surgery with mass removal and saved her life. They genuinely care about your pet and will give you all the information you need to make sure they stay healthy. Will definitely recommend and be coming back for future visits.
Professor Kelley
I have mixed feelings about this office. On one hand they always have appointments and generally do a good and perfunctory job and are not overpriced.
One the other hand I feel that’s it’s a job to the staff and there is no real love for the work they do. Oftentimes they miss small, but important, details- for example raw and bloody paw pads on my new foster dog and not cleaning up my pet after a neuter. He was handed off to us with literal blood dripping down his leg. They don’t seem to go the “extra mile” and sometimes can be a bit condescending.
Rachel Wyle Barnes
Brought our recently adopted kittens here for a checkup. I'm so glad I trusted all of these positive Google reviews, because they were very accurate! The entire staff is wonderful. The technicians and veterinarian were informative, on time, and most importantly - gentle & kind with our kittens! They even helped us trim their nails and showed us how to clean their ears. The office is clean and doesn't have the usual funny smell that a lot of vet clinics do. I recommend this vet 100%, we are so happy to have found them!
A. Santiago
My 9yr old pet turtle passed on 10/30 and they were very compassionate and comforting she was cremated. I afterwards took her partner to ensure her safety all went well. The staff are kind, attentive. Doctor Fried was kind understanding listened and answered all my questions and concerns taught me tips going forward with my remaining pet turtle. I am very satisfied.
Registrar Office
Riverdale Veterinary Group is such a warm , caring place to bring our fur babies. I just wish I knew of this place sooner for my other fur babies that i had. They show our pets the love and compassion that is needed and should be required in a vet. Thank you for everything you do for our little Mavis. Maria and Xavier Sierra-Figueroa
Amanda Nicole
1) I understand its Covid-19, but I didn't like the fact that I had to wait in the waiting area while my cat was being examined. I preferred to be there with her and see what exactly is being done, as it is my right.
2) The young lady at the front desk, she sits to the left of the desk once you walk into the office, is very rude. I've watched how she talks to other patients, and its nasty. I had my own experience with her as I called the office to make an appointment. She needs to learn to speak respectfully and more professionally. Other staff memebrs were fine. With the price I am told to pay for the services, I expect more professionalism, and respect from the front desk staff. The doctor however, were fine.
IC
Always has been a great experience from entering to exiting. I've been using this place exclusively for my daschund for over 16 years and I would highly recommend it to anyone who truly loves their pet. I love the hello at the desk with the friendly faces and their undivided attention to you and your pet. I give the staff a 5 star rating for sure,the vets are caring and attentive to your needs and most of all the needs of your pet.
Sarah Sanders
Friendly, knowledgeable, thorough vet. Honor appointment times; you don’t have to wait long for your pet to see the vet upon arrival. Give follow up phone calls to make sure everything is improving with your pet.
S Ventura
I few days ago I had to put my pet rat Baby to sleep. They were the only ones that took in exotic pets in my area and it was an emergency. They gladly took me in on the same day I called. They made me feel so at peace even though I was losing a loved one, and they actually take the time to examine and TOUCH my pet, instead of just looking and assuming. Dr Fried and the nurse that was assisting him were very delicate and super sensitive and comforted me on my loss. The staff actually care about the animals here and not about charging you first. They make sure you and your pet are comfortable and I highly recommend them. Will now be taking my dog and any future pets here. I recommend giving them a call before visiting.
Brittany Bogan
Dr. Tucker is awesome!!!! She's very caring and gentle. My cat usually isn't fond of strangers because he's so little. But he loves Dr. Tucker. He lays all out like he lives there. His vet visits are 100% stress free. He remains so calm when in the hands of Dr. Tucker. Front desk staff are very professional and nice, even their phone manner! I've been coming here for years and they are very accommodating when squeezing you in for an appointment.
Rosa Sobal
Friendly staff, great doctors! My daughter recommended Riverdale Veterinary after I had a bad experience in another vet clinic. As soon as I walked in the door it felt just right! they are also opened 7 days a week & have evening hour appointments, which made it soooo easy for me to have them see my dog. I highly recommended them.
nicole lievano
I am so happy to have found this place. So close to home and the MOST CONVENIENT APPOINTMENT TIMES.
I had a 7:15 pm appointment and never once felt rushed.
The Doc was amazing, sweet, patient and very informative.
The vet tech / assistant was awesome with my pitbull and made me feel super comfortable.
The front desk woman was super helpful over the phone and even sweeter in person. She showed genuine care and made sure i understood everything. This place is definitely 5 STARS !
Cely VB
I was very happy with the way they worked.
I got there on time, they called me, they took my dog in without me(COVID-19 rules), they were done in less then 30min, I had to wait for the bill and the test but over all it was a great experience. I used to take my dog to another vet but this one is by far the best one.
The veterinarian was very friendly and happy to answer my question, it’s a little pricy but the service and hospitality that was provided it was worth it.
Theodore Port
Excellent care for my two dogs. Pleasant atmosphere and short wait time for my appointment. Examination and treatment was not hurried and they took time to listen to all my concerns. I would readily recommend them.
Jasmine B.A.
This is the best vet in the Riverdale area! The staff are very friendly and helpful, the wait time is never too long, and the doctors are very kind and gentle with my dog! I feel very comfortable bringing my pet in for his shots and checkups, also for doing teeth cleaning under anesthesia, which has always gone smoothly with minimal or no pain afterwards! I highly recommend the Riverdale Vet Group, you’ll be hard pressed to find a better facility to meet all of your pet’s needs!
Richard Marshall
This is an amazing place. I think they understand the incongruous truth that pets are family members, ones who deserve all the love and care possible.
Susan Nehama
The staff has always been friendly and professional and patient when dealing with our very large dog (130 lbs). We have always received wonderful care and even board him there. You can tell they do a great job as their neighbor, a locksmith, recognized my dog on the street since he saw him being played with several times in their exercise space while being boarded. He is very happy to see the staff when we get there.
Stephen Pecorella
They took really an amazing care of my baby foxy . She's been feeling sick from an infection. Dr was on point with all the information, didn't attempt to add on anything she didn't need. Thank you! Sarah/ Stacey behind the desk are very friendly, warm , welcoming and you can hear/ tell they have empathy for pets.
Once again thank you during these hard times , we love our fur babies.
In Your Face Productions
I adopted a cat from a shelter and no one had any information on him. He became ill not long after coming home. I took him to this clinic and they instantly took him in and gave him a thorough check up. I took him home and my cat was good as new. Clean place. Awesome staff. Overall very pleasant experience.
Boo Bah
Usually not crowded at all. Staff is friendly. Doctors seem to have a good handle on the animals. I moved to this veterinary center from the bronx vet center cause of poor care and I'm very happy I switched such a different environment. Only thing i didn't like is they don't allow you in the back with the animal. I assume cause of covid I hope it changes tbh.
T Mack
I took my kitten here yesterday and let me tell you my experience was amazing the people there are extremely nice they even worked with me on the price and they saved my baby. My kitten had bad diarrhea to the point there was blood in her stool now my baby Chloe catdashian is even better than ever her poop is still a little watery but the blood is gone in a couple days I believe her poop will be back to normal thanks Riverdale Veterinary Group I can't thank you guys enough I would highly recommend this vet
Diana M
My cat was very sick with excessive drooling he couldn't eat or sleep. I took my cat to Riverdale Veterinary Group and the receptionist was very attentive and caring. My cat Charlie had dental problems and 5 teeth were taking out. The doctors were also attentive to Charlie's needs and my pocket. I received a call before, during, after and the next day. The next day the doctor himself called to see how Charlie was doing. I was sent home with medication and now Charlie feel great.
Thanks Riverdale Veterinary Group PC for your wonderful care.
A G
I have had several different experiences at vets in the bronx. This was by far the best. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and my appointment was completed quickly. For the services I requested, it probably came out to around 100 dollars more than it would have at my previous vet, but with that said I would do it again, and its worth paying more for a dramatically better experience. Thank you!

I had to take my 8 year old bombay cat in he was suffering from urinary obstruction they did an analysis on his body the test was for $75.00 they did find out his kidneys were swollen and he had low temperature and was obstructied. They couldn't do anything for him so they referred me to an emergency hospital where my cat could've been saved but the price tag for his procedure was too expensive and I didn't have insurance so I had to ultimately make the decision to euthanize my poor kitty he was in pain and discomfort. Nontheless this Vet was very professional and attentive I will return and recommend for other pet owners.

Truly give my dog the best care, everyone from the Vet Techs, doctors and receptionist. From simple wellness checks, to her recent surgery, they have been great, very patient, answer all my questions and so so caring for her. They call to check up on her when she is on medications. Very caring office.
Ron Van Cleef
In the past, I had very positive experiences using the Riverdale Veterinary Group. They were willing to see my cat and I on short notice and I found all the staff I encountered to be both professional and compassionate. Recently, when I found out that my little love was terminally ill Dr. Fried and the other staff members helped make a painful time less difficult. Friends and associates from the area I know have told me their experiences were also positive. I think we are fortunate to have them in our area.
Morganne M
So thankful for this Vet group and all of the staff.
When my vet of 4 years could not take my new puppy in for a semi-emergency and I did not want to go to the emergency vet, I called Riverdale Vet Group and they were kind enough to squeeze us in for an appointment that day. My puppy ended up needing to stay the night for fluids. Everything turned out fine, and I was extremely happy with their service and will be returning to them as our primary care vet for all of my animals in the future.

We are very lucky to have this group right in our neighborhood. Dr. Tucker and all of the staff have been wonderful in taking care if my most loved cat Ginger upon discovering she has cancer. Dr. Tucker has taken time with us, explaining everything and answers all our questions with care and patience. When she is out of the office, the other doctors at the practise have been just as helpfull when we have questions and concerns. The staff is wonderful, they are kind and have been helpfull through every step of this process. I highly recommend this veterinary group. ❤
Anny Ortiz
Let me begin by saying that I have taken my dog to 4 different vets. All 4 have been so negative and have treated my dog and I with disrespect. This place felt welcoming from the beginning and they walked me though the process for my dogs dental. It is a bit expensive but if it’s for my baby’s health, money shouldn’t be an issue. Recommend 100% !
Jeff Christian
Friendly staff, they took great care of our dog. I like how they take time to talk it out and make sure they/you understand what's going on.

I took my parakeet to the Riverdale Veterinary for an eye injury. Dr. Fried was very gentle with him. He showed me how to apply the medication. I returned for the 2 week follow up and my bird is doing great. Dr. Fried and the staff are professional, friendly and caring. I recommend them to all my pet owner friends and family.
Kim Fornal
I've always had a good experience with Dr. Fried. He's an excellent vet and I've been bringing my dogs to him for years. I recently had my 15 year old pug undergo a dental procedure with him, under anesthesia. It was risky, but she came out fine and is doing great. This place is not the cheapest, but if you want a vet who gives correct diagnoses and doesn't try to sell you on every vaccine and test in the book, then Dr. Fried is worth it.
Rachel H
I've only had great experiences with these guys. I have two cats and have taken them in together and separately. The reception, techs, and vets ALL have been very friendly, helpful, and provided excellent care. We've just had routine visits (thankfully), but I generally have lots of questions that they are happy, patient, and through in answering.
Janet Cooke
Love this place. Very kind receptionists, minimal wait times. The vet I saw was gentle, experienced, helpful, and clear in her recommendations. My cat was feeling better just a few hours after our visit. Will be back!
Bruce Lashley
Have been taking my dogs here since Dr Fried opened this office. Has been and is a great office. Takes great care of my dogs.
Most of all Dr Fried got us through the very though time of putting out 16+ year old best friend.
I highly recommend Riverdale Veterinary Group!
Jessii P
Great experience so far, just switched to them from bronx veterinary clinic located on webster ave. Riverdale had friendlier vets with a lot of knowledge, i love they even do exotics which is rare. Happy to change to this vet! We now see Dr. Emmerich who's awesome, friendly and very knowledgeable!
Juan de marchena
This is a very professional but also warm and welcoming Vet practice. Our dog, Puzzle, has gotten great treatment here with very caring providers. We have used their boarding services too.
My wife, myself and most important, Puzzle are very grateful for the excellent, caring staff and services here
Michelle Ruiz
I had my pets going to this vet for 10 years. All my pets are well taken care of. My parakeets and a cocktail plus my ferrett along with my 2 goffin cockatoos.
Lois Panulla
Beloved cat not feeling himself and his longtime Dr.is 3 + hours away so my sister suggested I call for an appointment just to see if this was something that needed immediate attention . I am very grateful i did. I was offered an appointment that afternoon WHAT??( and praise be they are open Saturdays and Sundays !!! ). Dr Tucker is very knowledgable and reassuring She discussed our options without being aggressive and recommended a reasonable course of action .
Very nice staff and super clean facility . Well done all around !
Danielle Bernstein
After having a bad experience at another vet, RVG was there for me and had the knowledge to help me and my fur baby. We sat with Dr Emmerich who took the time to explain everything and made sure that we took the best course of action for my cat. All the staff are very friendly and helpful.
Seresa Kal
My cat received vaccines from another clinic on a Saturday. After a while she started to have a reaction to the vaccines. She kept falling down, vomiting, not eating, etc. This clinic was the only one in my area open on a Sunday and able to see my cat on a short notice. I'm very thankful for them since they were able to help my cat and answer all my questions. She is doing so much better now.
Sergio Mauri
5 stars Veterinary clinic. They always ready to take care of your pet's needs and they always treat us like family. They love my puppy dog Max. I had to leave my dog in boarding and I was afraid that on my return Max will be stressed or something else, but to my surprise, I found a very happy dog, eventhough this was his first time in boarding.
jesica nyc (jesi_nyc)
I ve visited this veterinary office for the first time when looking for a veterinarian to see my 2 guinea pigs ! I was delighted! Really nice and clean office. Staff in the front desk as well as the doctors are really nice and professional. Prices are really affordable too! I paid $60 per guinea! Would recommend!
Jacqueline Laboy
I have recommended Riverdale Vet to many of my customers at Petgoods Scarsdale. I trust Dr. Fried with my pets. He had been seeing my cat
“Princess”who is 8 yrs. old and my bunny “Casper” who is also 8yrs. old. I now added a new member to the family, another bunny who’s 3 months old and her name is “Cinnamon”. The staff at Riverdale Vet are all friendly and show a lot of love to all the pets who r brought there.
Keep up the good work.
STS TLM
They've provided care for my mom's cat for many years. I do wish you were allowed to go inside when they are examining your pet but since they redesigned the space and COVID it isn't allowed anymore.
Amber Smith
Both my cat and I were nervous about finding a new vet but this place took away all worries. Close to home. Good price. Fast and excellent service. Clean space. Polite and knowledgeable staff that was on top of every situation. I’ve definitely found my new vet.
David DePena
I used this particular Vet for 4 years while living in the Bronx. I was especially happy with Dr. Palmieri but honestly every Vet has been wonderful. The real stars of this office are the incredible staff at the front desk who have been so loving with my pets and patient with me and needs as a crazy dog dad.
Anna Valeryevna
Not many doctors all over New York are ready to take care of small pets, Dr. Fried is one of them. I have nothing but good things to say about experiences my big happy rat pack had at Riverdale vet, and I'm really impressed with all the care received from Dr.Fried and all amazing stuff members. Even when office is getting really busy, service is always on top
Lara Sargologo-Hunt
I "inherited" my cat Tenglo from my cousin a few years back. Tenglo was already a senior cat. After a short time having her as my pet, we discovered that she had a kidney disease. Let me add that Tenglo was a somewhat of a feral cat and could bite at a moment's notice.
Dr Fried was so patient with her. Everyone in the practice were absolutely amazing, even when she bit one of the techs, never once did they make me feel bad or un-welcomed. Dr Fried helped me care for Tenglo. What I always like about him is that he never pushed me to make decisions. He gave me the facts, listened to my worries (and cries) and supported every decision I made without pushing me. We switched her food and I gave her fluids on a consistent basis. She continued to live a good life despite her disease. If it wasn't for Dr Fried, she would not have been well taken care of as much as he did. She ended up developing diabetes. She had a seizure one night and I had to rush her to the emergency room where I made the tough decision that it was time to let her go. Dr Fried called me the next day and I remember sobbing to him on the phone asking if I did enough for her. I will never forget what he said to me. he said: "Lara you did more for this cat than anyone else would have. if it wasn't for you..." Well if it wasn't for him, she wouldn't have had half the care she got at his practice anywhere else. Thank you Dr. Fried.
Sael Marie Fuentes
Our first visit to Riverdale Veterinary was a wonderful experience. everyone was pleasant and very caring. Our maltese had his first check up and it went smooth. All our questions as first time dog owners were answered. I will definitely continue bringing our pet to this clinic
Harriet Granfield
I highly recommend the RVG. The office staff is extremely accommodating & Dr. Fried & his veterinary staff are professional and unbelievably caring. I never feel “pushed” into procedures & tests; they are calm & NOT alarmists. They gently walked us with our Riley up to the Rainbow Bridge and helped us help her walk over it. I will never forget Dr. Fried’s kindness & compassion. He is now my Jack’s vet! Can I give more than 5 stars?
Sarah Brillantes
Friendly staff. Clean office. My dog has had two successful dental cleanings and extractions there, and both time procedures went well, no issues. Pricey if you don’t have pet insurance.
Catherine Dominicci
Came across this Vet group when my dog was sick and my regular vet's next appointment was a week away. Riverdale Veterinary Group saw me the same day with almost no waiting in the waiting room and the doctors were fantastic! I'm switching my pets over to them from now on. My dog is now feeling much better and I would recommend all pet parents to come down! 10/10
Lois Feldman
The Riverdale Veterinary Group is a truly wonderful veterinary practice. Dr Fried has been our vet for over 10 years with our two cats. He is so smart, experienced, caring, and thorough. When one of our cats needed to be put down, he could not have been kinder or more thoughtful. He was so helpful in assessing when to continue medical treatment and when to let go. Everyone in the practice is very knowledgeable and considerate of the animals they treat and the people who love them. We are very lucky to have them right here in Riverdale.
Anna Rivera
I have only had great experience at this vet. Yes, the prices are expensive, but no more than other vets to which I have taken my cats. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. There is never a long wait time.I have two instances that have set this vet apart from others:
One of my cats was clearly in pain and needed a vet asap. It was a Sunday. He had been a patient at Riverdale vet, so they were familiar with his failing health. They could not accommodate him at the time, so they made arrangements for him to be seen at sister vet in a close enough neighborhood. I had to put him down that day. He did not have to endure one more day in pain because his vet found a way to help. They did not get any of the payment involved, so it really was all about my wonderful Champ. I also received a condolence card from them. This may have been an extenuating circumstance, but it is a response during difficult times where trust is built. Especially for any kind of care giver.
Another thing that has set this place apart is that I was very straightforward with the vet about my present financial difficulties and being able to only provide the minimal needs to keep my other, 10-yr old, cat healthy. I was surprised with his candidacy. In addition to helping me keep my expenses low by doing the minimum for her, he provided me with preventive measures for plaque he saw building up in her mouth that could cause problems for her in the future.
I would not go to a doctor I don't trust first and foremost. Why would I not do the same for my feline family?! We're lucky that they are so near. Picture is of happy times with Champ and Tully. 😺😸
erica noy
I have been taking my pets (guinea pig, pet rat, cats and dog) to RVG since the early 90's. They are truly the best! The day Super Storm Sandy was hitting I had an emergency with my cat Corey, and although they were closing early, they told me to come right in! That's dedication. Dr Fried also taught me how to do fluid infusion at home for my cat Frisco's kidney condition and that gave him an extra year of quality of life. I won't go anywhere else. The entire staff is great.
Martha Nochimson
Derek Fried and the Riverdale Veterinary Group are a blessing to our community. Dr. Fried loves animals and is caring and knowledgeable. He gives of his time willingly and is always respectful and thoughtful. My husband and I feel very fortunate to have such a good doctor caring for our cats.
Alietta Gordon
I am happy to have found a good vet that I trust and like since moving to Riverdale. I have seen all of the vets here and they are caring, thorough and understanding. They give my dog the treatment he needs and do nothing excessive or unnecessary. The front desk staff are also very happy to have me bring my dog by (to try to get him more used to coming to the vet) and weigh him and give him a treat. My only complaint is the flat office visit is at least $20 more that my previous vet (rent is high for everyone in Riverdale I guess). But, I would definitely recommend this vet.
Stephanie Kupiec
I am giving 3 stars and will do my best to give an honest good vs bad review.
The Good:
- Most of the vet techs and vets at this office are very nice. Dr. Fried is A+ Amazing. He patiently answered every detailed question I had about my pup when we found sediment in her bladder, and I had literally brought a list. Based on his recommendations, Kitana is doing much better. The vet techs that I have met in-person are very gentle and kind to her as well.
- The office is very clean and their approach to handling patients during COVID is organized and not at all chaotic. The receptionists are quick and efficient when it comes to scheduling.
The Bad:
- I was charged for a fecal exam which I had previously confirmed with the Dr was not actually done (as there were no results to report). I tried resolving this with the receptionist over the phone and she put me on hold mid-sentence (I guess because she didn't feel like listening to me explain the issue?) to look something up. Despite her looking up whatever it was, she still didn't understand and I had to repeat myself anyways. She told me that she would contact the doctor about it, as she couldn't confirm if the fecal was done or not. This is still not resolved.
- Maybe this is also a complaint to Inwood Animal Clinic for having misleading information on their website, but that was Kitana's old vet, and I found out about Riverdale Vet because they were listed as a "sister office" and as an "Emergency Option." Since Riverdale is (was) Kitana's main vet, and I had seen them listed as a place to contact in an Emergency, I reached out to them after my pup was stung by a wasp.
It was about 7-7:15 PM and her face was blowing up-- very scary to say the least. My instinct was to, of course, call the vet. Whoever took my call that day seemed to be WAY more concerned with the fact that I was coming in so close to 8 PM (their closing time). I told him I was about 15-20 mins ride away, and here he is asking me if I am sure I will "make it before 8 PM," while my dog is breaking out in hives. I was only coming from Inwood. He then told me that I needed to go to North Yonkers to the ER Vet because "they couldn't help her." You wanna know what they did at the ER Vet? They gave Kitana a shot of liquid Benedryl and steroids, and they observed her for an hour to make sure it helped.
You mean to tell me that Riverdale Vet doesn't have liquid Antihistamine or Epinephrine onsite? Or steroids? And I do understand that if it became life-threatening, they would send me to the ER anyways, but why in the world wouldn't they at least give her a shot of Antihistamine and THEN send me to the ER vet?
The tech goffed at the fact that I was livid as he told me the Yonkers ER was "only 10 more minutes further"-- do you realize that my dog would DIE on the way if the reaction started preventing her breathing? Do you realize that at that moment, every minute counted? Do you realize that this was my primary vet, and now I straight up don't trust you because you turned my dog and I away when we needed you most?
I guess it was more important to him that he close-up shop on time. Unfortunately I didn't get his name because, you know, I was in the middle of an emergency... Kitana made a full recovery without any major complications, but I don't think my opinion of Riverdale Vet Group will.
S H
Dr. Emmerich is awesome. Took my kitten there after he started having sxs of an upper respiratory infection. She diagnosed him, gave us information on how to care for him (first time kitty mom here so that was much appreciated). Discussed issues that can occur with his specific breed and what to look for in the future. Medication was provided and he got well very quickly. So grateful! Will definitely be bringing him back for his follow ups and shots.
Melanie Ramirez
They took care of my cat wonderfully. Everyone was great!
Joan Carrig
I have been bringing my dog to the Riverdale Veterinary Group for close to nine years. The service we receive, from every member of the staff, is always professional, caring and compassionate. They have always been extremely responsive to my concerns and have always gone above and beyond to provide the best care possible.
olivia sandles
Appointment time was scheduled ahead but my wait time was 30 plus minutes in delay. My first visit so I was not prepared for this lengthy wait. On the other hand it is very clean and a convenient location if you live in Bronx/Riverdale area and will need to walk there with animal. I was pet sitting but if I for some reason need vet services in future I would not hesitate to return. Also for first time appointments there is paper work to complete. If possible it would alleviate anxiety if paper work were emailed to clients to complete online/before visit. It is difficult to concentrate with barking dogs and constant movement.
Kyla Upshaw
Riverdale Veterinary is the best veterinary I've ever taken my dog to. They are kind and always ready to help if I have any questions or needs. I have never had to wait long and with their help I have improved my dogs weight and overall health!
Shavon Fenton
My toy poodle Cinn has been a patient of the Riverdale Veterinary Group for almost a decade and she have always been treated with the utmost level of care and excellence. Dr. Fried and Dr. Rosado are compassionate, understanding and caring. They always take the time to listen to all of my concerns and answer every single question.
Recently my little fur baby had to undergo an emergency surgery and without hesitation Dr. Fried rearranged his schedule to fit her in. He even examined her free of charge post-op when I was concerned about the way she was healing.
The front desk staff and techs are also very friendly, polite and extremely helpful. Riverdale Veterinary Group is the absolute best animal clinic in all of Riverdale.
A C
I have been here twice with my parakeet and my 2 chinchillas. They are quick to give last minute appointments and Dr. Fried is wonderful. He takes time explaining everything about your pet. Their renovated office looks great as well. I will continue to go here even if I move from the Riverdale area.
E Hernandez-Rosa
Our Spike has been a patient of Dr. Fried for a few years now and we have no regrets. It is pricey but all vets are. Very caring staff and follow up calls from Dr. Fried tells me that he truly cares.
Amanda B
I work at the Petco right there and i absolutely love coming here. The exotic vet always takes care of us and the women at the front desk are always smiling and nice. It may be a little bit more pricey for dogs and cats but you’re definitely getting your money’s worth here.
Rhonda Echavarria
I've been going to Riverdale Vet for years and have always been satisfied w/the service and high quality care they provide. Everyone, from the administration @ the front desk to the Doctors and their assistants, are pleasant, helpful and very highly qualified. Their hours are also very convenient. I highly recommend Riverdale Veterinary Group PC.
Walker Whiteside
Have been a customer of Riverdale Vet and Dr Fried since 2000!!! Dr Fried and the whole staff of techs and front desk always take great care of our Fur-Babies. We adopt senior pugs and they all have special health needs. Everyone there goes above and beyond to help us with these special babies.
Couldn’t recommend them more highly.
Raphael Sacks
Best vet in the area.
Over the years, I've been to easily a dozen vets in the Bronx and upper Manhattan. After feeling like each new vet I visited was always pushing the most expensive, most invasive options in every situation, what an enormous relief to discover Dr. Fried! Particularly as my cat got old, and medical procedures became more and more risky, the whole Riverdale Veterinary staff was clear, helpful and patient in considering all the different options for treatment.
When Dr. Fried was not available, I have also brought my cats in to other doctors on staff, and also had a good experience--the entire office seems to share in a culture of really listening. If only I could find an MD who treats their human patients with this type of thoughtful care.
Sandy S.
My cat had dental surgery last week. Dr. Palmeri was very helpful, detail orientated and kind. Staff and Sara are very professional and kind. My cat is doing very well, had a lot of teeth pulled. I've been to other Animal Hospitals, this one seems to be the best so far!
Fannie Peczenik
Dr. Palmeri was our cat's veterinary for about 3 years and cared for her during her final illness. Our cat always received kind and personal attention -- the staff knew her and always asked about her -- and we were kept well-informed about her condition. In the worst of times, it was comforting to know that we could call and get a last minute appointment or expert advice on how to handle the situation.
In fact, the expertise and tact of the Riverdale Veterinary Group could serve as a model for doctors and hospitals caring for human patients.
Rosanna Restituyo
Every time my puppy King comes they take care of him always on time!! I have never truly waited very long specially if I make an appointment and even when I just do the walk ins too. We have been there about 3 times now, for annual pysical, Because he was sick and his shots due to the fact they have a really good special one time a month for them. The vet he is truly amazing!! Actually everyone is!!! He is our local vet and the only one he will be visiting until further notice. Thank you vet group!! For taking care of my baby King :).
Mike M
Took my Sister and Soldier(Dog) here because we thought he had Scrotum Cancer. They were accommodating and caring. I don't live in the City, but my Sister do, so we had to coordinate schedules and change dates multiple times. Soldier is back to his old self, playful and ready to be rubbed. One thing I did not like or understand: Soldier needed medicine and the prescription had to be picked up from 92th Avenue. Why couldn't we go to Yonkers Pet Store or equivalent? It would have been easier. The prescription was put in at 12:00pm and would not have been ready until 2:00 - 5:00pm. Well if anybody knows city traffic, it is a nightmare! But overall, they treated him well and he is doing great! I asked her and she likes them a lot. She loves their service.
linda briant
The wonderful staff at Riverdale Vet Group has been taking care of my cats for years. They are unfailingly professional and capable but equally important, they are compassionate and caring. I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone needing veterinary services. Linda Briant
Ashley Alvarez
They were amazing. I had got get my grandpas cat seen on a Sunday and they were able to accommodate me even though we were a little late. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The doctors are knowledgeable and the location is clean and looks great.
sherry dratt
I have been using Riverdale Veterinary Group for many years and would never think about taking my babies anywhere else. Dr. Fried and his staff
are wonderful, warm and caring people. I only wish my Doctor's treated me the way my babies are taken care of. I also have to give a shout out to "Josh" who has walked me through some of the toughest times with my pets.
Lena Lai
First time client before becoming a regular client for my pets. Great staff and great vets, Dr. Jessica Tucker and especially, Dr. Derek Fried as he is not only totally OUTSTANDING in his care of my pets, but also of his fully and detailed explanations of my pet's health issues! He is my hero to my pets!!
Robert K.
I've been going to Riverdale Vet for years and have always been satisfied with their service and high quality care they provide. Everyone, there from the people at the desk to the Doctors and their assistants, are pleasant, helpful and very highly qualified. I would highly recommend the Riverdale Veterinary Group PC to anyone.
Beth Aminoff
I have been bringing both my cats and the cats from my rescue Magnificat for years. Everyone there is totally devoted to our animals and go out of their way to help keep our animals happy. From the front desk to the vet techs to the vets we have been so extremely pleased with how we and our cats have been attended to. I feel lucky to be able to have this vet's office in our lives!!!!!
Alex Belth
It's not easy to describe how much my wife and I have appreciated the service at the Riverdale Veterinary Group since we began going there a decade ago. The level of care, attentiveness and professionalism is top-notch. Dr. Fried is a wonderful doctor. We never get the sense that he has anything but our pet's welfare on his mind. He is a straight-shooter but he is also humane and caring and has a considerate bedside manner that is full of empathy. His sensibility radiates to the rest of the staff as well. They are businesslike and helpful and we always feel as if we are in the best hands at the Riverdale Vet Group.
jeanne alter
I am new to neighborhood and adopted a 10 y/on dog with stomach issues. Appointment was made quickly and follow-up calls returned. It helped me feel confident about taking care of the pup.
jay williams
I have been using Riverdale vet for the past 11years, since moving here. I can not speak highly enough, Dr Fried who is the owner has been and still is amazing, and has always gone out of his way to help me. His office is open everyday, except for New Years day, through this pandemic the office has still been open, and everyone has been amazing...he has not only been there for all his patients he also has not turned away any animal from another vets office that is closed.
Rebecca Smith
These are the best veterinarians I have ever had. And I’m an MD myself, ivy league trained, professor. This group managed very skillfull workups and care of three medically complicated beloved cats - one a kitten and one a senior. They were perfect with my complicated cats - and also took care of me at the end of the lives of my 19 year old cat— and my 22 year old cat. The team is so compassionate, friendly and interested. True animal lovers. I give them my highrst recommendation. Sign me -forever grateful MD, 2019
Christina Burke
Great to have a vet nearby who can care for guinea pigs. Thanks, Dr. Fried!
Kim Gooden
Wish I had found this Veterinary 5 years ago for my Maltese; it's like one stop shopping. Veterinary and Groomer all in one spot. The Vet was great with Myles and he looked so handsome after the Groomer was finished with him, and he was nice and calm. I took him to a well known pet store and their grooming services were horrible; not only did he come out with a gash, I explained to them that his nails had to be cut and please do not use the drill because it scares him, which they used; by the time I picked him up I did not recognize him. Never again.
Thank you Riverdale Veterinary Group, Myles will not be going anywhere else.
andrea nelkin
Our cat uses prescription food, so I go to RVG often. Always enjoy going there, seeing other pets who are waiting to see the doctors, and interacting with the friendly and thoughtful staff who work in the office.
First of all, nothing takes the place of knowledgeable personnel - including doctors and staff. We will never forget how wonderful Dr. Fried was when our previous cat had to be euthanized several years ago. His understanding and patience were deeply appreciated. For that reason alone we would've continued to take our pets to RVG! But we have had similar experience there with our ...elderly... cat, Jessica, who was given a proper diagnosis several years ago for hyperthyroidism. The vet recommended an excellent hospital facility where the treatment she needed was provided, and RVG has followed up consistently to be aware if that condition (or any others) should recur. It is always easy to schedule appointments, and we have never felt that our cat was not important, that our questions were irrelevant, or that we were taking too much time by asking for information.
All of these things are important. We all love our pets, and it makes such a difference when people at the vet's office sincerely care about patients' pets and want to do the very best possible for them. We are so grateful to have consulted RVG years ago, and plan to continue!
Sarah Sanchez
I have had the pleasure to visit Riverdale Vetenary Group twice. I have 4 pet turtles and I am happy to say that the service was great. I got an appointment right away and each time my turtles were diagnosed, treated & recovered rapidly. Their prices are affordable, considering that they are dealing with exotic animal and not your usual dog & cat. They always follow up your pets treatment with a phone call to check that everything is ok. They leave messages and are ready to answer any questions you may have after your visit.
Sarah Birch
Dr. Fried is a wonderful vet! He is experienced, calm, caring and incredibly helpful! I had to make an emergency visit with my three cats recently and everyone was understanding and very helpful.
Mikaela Hernandez
Great and fast service always ! I take my birds here whenever I need
Cheryl Mapou
Had to leave our 3 month old puppy due to illness in the family. It was an emergency. They worked with us so we could leave our puppy safely for him and other dogs. We were very happy with the service
Deborah Pines
This is the best veterinary clinic I’ve ever been to and Derek Fried is an absolutely wonderful vet. He called me at 9:00pm to answer a question and then added that he knew another vet in the Manhattan who’s good with dogs with my dog’s specific problem (an psychotic problem that he couldn’t help me with). He’s really fantastic.
Melanie Weiss
I cannot praise Dr Fried and his staff enough! I found myself at his clinic after a horrible expereince with another vet, and was met with competance, compassion and professionalism that I have yet to experience with another veterinary service. Sara at the front desk is awesome! I do animal rescue and the staff has been wonderful with the fearful, unhappy little creatures I have brought in. They are wonderful!
Susan Egan
We were at Riverdale Vet Group this week with both the dog and cat. Despite loud squalling and unceasing efforts to kill the vet by each animal, they were lovingly and patiently diagnosed and treated and are much improved today. It was a wonderful visit.
josie fernandez
Very pleasant office. Wait time was minimal and friendly staff. First time i ever had a vet call and ask if i had any questions about her meds and how was she feeling. Thumbs up!! Found my new veterinarian.
Cheryl Watts
I brought my 13 year old cat Chloe to the Riverdale Vet clinic when she was sneezing and listless. The vet saw Chloe right away and diagnosed a bad cold. Although Chloe was afraid and annoyed at the office, she gave the Vet a really hard time because she did not want to be examined, the Vet was very patient even after Chloe bit him!He took Chloe into another room, was able to calm her down in order to treat her.I was very impressed by the Vets professionalism and calm attitude. I was also very pleased to find out that I did not have to try to force pills down Chloe's throat (Almost an impossible task) because they treated her with liquid anti biotics. Finally, I was most impressed because a few days later my Chloe was cured and happy again.

Riverdale Vets really does care about our pets. The staff was wonderful helping me care for my beloved aging cat, through kidney issues, blindness, and her final days. Now they are continuing the same sensitive and professional care to our newest family member.
Eddie Black
In my time of need for my little cat Bella ,The Riverdale Veterinary Group not only helped nurse my cat Bella back to health but kept me from going crazy by answering all of my questions in person and like a nervous father by phone as well, as it took several weeks to get Bella back to her old self. They were knowledgeable, efficient and kind not only to Bella by to her nervous dad as well.I am glad they are there to help if and when I need them .
Thank you Riverdale Veterinary Group!!!!
Edward Schwartz, and Bella!!

I have had many gerbils through the years. Dr. Fried, Rivedale's "Dr. Doolittle" has been the veterinarian to all of them. He is fantastic! He is SO knowledgeable and gentle with my sweet animals. He is also SO kind and generous with his time to me, whenever I had/have questions... When a gerbil died (alas, gerbils have such short life spans, compared to dogs, cats, birds). he showed a caring and compassion for my sorrow, that, alas, most human doctors lack.
I highly recommend Dr. Fried and the Riverdale Veterinary Group (the office and veterinary assistants are so caring, also. I am truly blessed to have him as my gerbils' veterinarian.
Glendalee Gutierrez
They have amazing customer service the only reason why I am giving it a 4 is because is really expensive. But overall the experience was really good the front desk lady are so nice and helpful the doctor was really nice and the nurse he was really nice he told me to get the most important thing for my dog and that we could do a follow up. Really nice environment.

My wife and I have used Riverdale Veterinary Group since March 2000, first for a female mixed breed and since June 2013 for our Shiba Inu. Doctor Derek Fried has been the primary care provider, but at times we have also used other doctors on staff. Both the doctors and support staff have provided excellent care and have been patient and attentive with both our dogs and with my wife and I. And whenever we had a question about any aspect of a bill, the issue was always quickly and satisfactorily resolved. My wife and I most highly recommend Riverdale Veterinary Group PC for the excellent care and service treatment provided there.
Roxanne Lee
Dr Fredmen has taken care of my 2 babies very well with a spay and nutuer and teeth cleaning I would recommend his place to anyone The place is clean and smells order less the front desk help is awesome. They reassure you that your baby is going to to be ok they take the time out and don’t push. For anything you don’t want. I love this place and their staff and thank them for being good to my babies 👌🏻👍🏻🤗😍😀

My six week old kitten was not feeling well and I called Riverdale Veterinary Group and got an appointment the very same day. Dr. Jeniffer Tucker and the entire staff are amazing and they all welcomed my baby Miles and I. I definitely recommend this place!!

The only vet I relied on in this clinic when I lived in the area was Dr. Fried. You can tell that he works really hard. He was always available for my two ferrets, both of whom died from seperate, fatal illnesses. And he remembered their names and always returned a phone call. He also saved my rabbits life; she had a serious eye infection that wouldn't go away with medication and i had to scrounge up the money to get her eye surgery done. Dr. Fried successfully removed her dead eye and followed up with us in the months after. Fortunately, the surgery wasn't too expensive.
I do feel a bit weird asking him questions to things I would like to better understand, though whenever I do, I get the sense that he is tired of "stupid" questions, and that they require some form of "common sense." Maybe he just doesn't have the energy at times to not give off that kind of vibe. But it makes me not wanna ask things.
At one point, I needed my then-kitten neutered. Had a female vet do the checkup, and didn't really like her. I know a checkup is needed prior to t
e operation, but think I ended up paying for extra tests that weren't necessary for the prepping. Kitten healed excellently but hated the painkiller meds. He foamed and drooled everywhere whenever he had the slightest taste of it, so we stopped givinv him that.
All in all, my personal experience was decent. However, a fellow dog owner of whom I know personally said that this clinic had given her dog the wrong diagnosis, wrong meds, could never remember her pets or her (and she lives in the area) and pushed for having her dogs toe amputated. She got a second opinion and it was just a treatable infection.
What I will agree with her is that the people behind the desk are very forgetful. And maybe they should know better for the most basic of questions.
Fitzgerald Figueroa
Very clean and extremely friendly staff. The doctors are extremely down to earth and descriptive. I only wish the techs spent more time asking questions about your pet before treating them.
DENISE GONZALEZ
I search for the best veterinary and I did the best choice is amazing the staff very friendly and the Dr. She was amazing too came to me to explain me what Skyy have and the best recommendations 😊 I love ❤ it I recommend thank you. …
Jo Ann Pate
They have been my trusted vet for 15 years. Dr. Fried and his staff are knowledgeable and caring. They have always and continue to treat my dogs as their own.
Taina MT
I met with Dr. Rosado for my cat who had pleural effusion a few years ago. He recommended both medical and homeopathic treatments and referred Psyche to the animal hospital in Yonkers. When it became clear Psyche needed to be put down, Dr. Rosado responded with such grace and excellent bedside manner that I knew my 9 year old cat was in caring, loving hands in her last few minutes of life. RVG was so good at giving me my space and support.
I have since adopted a dog who had what seemed to be an eye infection. I scheduled an appointment for Sunday afternoon, the staff gave Indie some water as soon as he arrived and even a leash, as I left ours at home in my rush to put him in his carrier for his appointment.
Dr. Fried was very thorough and explained everything they would do for Indie's eye. The receptionist staff is friendly and clearly loves animals, the vet tech is super friendly and professional as well. Some steroid/antibiotic drops later, Indie's eye is already looking much better.
I could not recommend Riverdale Vet Group more, they are just a great place to entrust your furry friends!
Zaivi Flores
The staff is excellent and the doctors are super. The place has been renovated and looks great. I highly recommend this clinic for it's friendliness and courteous manners and loving and caring doctors. 5 stars all the way. Keep up the good work.
Wendy Golden (Wendy G)
Staff and doctors are professional and caring. I boarded my cat and they were great about updates when I called. I started going to this practice when they opened and it's always a good experience.
K G
We have only had good experiences here! The doctors and technicians are always gentle and observant. Their prices are great as well. I have gone to vets who were absolutely terrible and charged double. We will come here as long as we live in the bronx.
Laura Bernstein
This place is great!!!! They actually remember your pet and treat the pet as one of their family too. The kind of place where you feel like stopping in to say hello even if you don't have your pet with you! Caring, understanding, knowledgeable, an incredible love for animals. No reason to go anywhere else. Not expensive either.
YH Jeon
a week ago, my kitty got acne under chin, it was getting worse and worse despite my efforts. I urged to call RVG on last Sunday ( I appreciate they open on Sunday). fortunately they accepted my appointment so I could visit.
all steps were kind and Vet as well. thanks!
Angel Berdecia
I felt like I was bothering the girl at the front desk while she was on the phone. Vets are great though.
Shuseki Shihan Paul Sookdar
I had made a 5:15 pm appointment and I was seen promptly at 5:15 pm.
The vet was kind and understanding and worked with our cat even though he was very scared and hissing. Gave us good advice, diagnosis, and treatment.
Marcos Herrera
My dog needed and x-ray but the closest appointment we could get from another clinic was weeks away. After calling Riverdale to see if they do x-rays, they yes and we’re able to get it done on the same day. Would use again.
Jason Freire
The level of care, attentiveness and professionalism is top-notch. I recommend Riverdale Veterinary Group to all my friends with dogs and cats. They are affordable and work with you in order to deliver the best possible care for your loved ones.
Lauren Sevian
I had a wonderful first visit to Riverdale Vet group. The entire staff and Dr. Fried treated me and my cat very well! I could tell the moment I walked through the door I was going to have a great experience. My cat received expert care and attention. Thank you!
curtis c
From the moment you enter the building you are greeted with caring, helpful and knowledgeable staff members. The doctors do not attempt to persuade unnecessary treatments, tests or medications. It's a friendly environment. I will be moving soon but will continue to take my dog back to Riverdale.
Patricia Six
Sadly I came here when my daughter's cat Leo was sick. He ending up having cancer and didn't last very long but Dr Fried was amazing during the visits. When it came time for Leo to cross the rainbow bridge we were given ample time to say goodbye. Leo was treated with respect and care the whole time.
Jeff Spychala
Called early in the morning for my dog's first appointment and they were able to see me immediately. Everyone on staff was friendly and respectful of myself and my dog. Will definitely be returning in the future
Bernie Carr
We have been coming here with our cats since it opened and we would not dream of going anywhere else. The vets, the techs, and the staff are all top notch. They will take very good care of your pet.
Ben Stevens
Riverdale Vet has always been helpful, courteous, and professional. I have 2 dogs,
and truly appreciate their help and opinions. The Doctor's there are also understanding and kind to the animals, which is important to the pet owners, because the pets are our children. Thanks Riverdale Vet.
Enid Toribio
I brought in my mini Aussie after having some head tremors, I spoke to Stacy on the phone she didn’t hesitate and told me to bring him in right away. They did an amazing job and he’s doing fantastic!!!! They are also very cost friendly .
Terence Main
Took us in with an emergency. Stabilized cat & referred us to Westside Animal Clinic on West 46 Street.
NEVER GO TO THERE. They have had to change their name because of all the bad reviews. I don't think that Dr. Fried knew this.
We spent $11,000 on lymphoma treatments and the Dr. withheld the fact that our baby had kidney problems as well. They ripped us off and made our beloved cat suffer needlessly.
Mariantha Harris
This is by far the best veterinary group around!!! I'll never forget how well they looked after my little orange tabby when she became sick. Thankfully, she is now healthy, well and very spoiled!!! I can never thank you enough!!! I recommend you to others every chance that I get!!!
Thanks, again!!!

On January 28, 2015, we took our beloved cat, Squiggy, to the Riverdale Veterinary Group. She is in her 14th year. She was unable to defecate. We knew this could be a dire situation and we were very worried and unsettled. Squiggy had been to this vet 2 or 3 times before, some years ago. We knew we were going to get excellent care for our cat, as had happened with previous visits. Dr. Jessica Palmeri explained to us that she would take x-rays, do blood work, and administer 2 or 3 enemas to try to loosen the feces which she felt was causing a blockage in Squiggy's bowel. She did all of that. The x-rays and bloods showed that Squiggy was basically okay. The enemas did not loosen the feces. Squiggy stayed overnight at the vet. The next morning Dr. Palmeri informed us that she would need to administer a light sedative and remove the feces manually, because it was like a block of cement. We agreed and she moved forward. The procedure was successful. We took our beloved cat home that evening, along with 2 prescribed meds. Squiggy is doing quite well; in fact, she seems to have become kittenish again. We are very happy with the results and the overall services of Riverdale Veterinary Group PC. I have had cats or dogs since early childhood and Dr. Palmeri is by far the very best vet I have ever encountered. Aside from excelling in her field, she has a wonderful and reassuring 'bedside manner'. The support staff there are welcoming, caring, and patient. Squiggy is in excellent and caring hands with Riverdale Veterinary Group PC.
Meir Dubizh
Staff was warm and attentive. Our dog was taken care well. My family and I are very happy with the care given by Dr. Emmerich and the clinic
Campeon Black
I have been with Riverdale Veterinary Group for over 10 years. All of my dogs have received the utmost of care. I have experienced many different vets in my lifetime. I can just tell the difference in "care" with this one.
Hayden
I cannot recommend this practice enough. Fantastic staff on hand that are capable and willing to handle whatever is needed of them. Thank you to everyone who has been there for my family and my dogs over the past decade. Truly a wonderful place.

I have been taking my dogs and cats to Riverdale Veterinary Group for 13 years. I love the vets, the vet techs, and the front desk support staff. I have nothing but great things to say about them and wouldn't take my animals anywhere else.
Nicole del Aguila
The BEST! Dr. Fried is absolutely amazing! They are caring and so compassionate. I highly recommend this veterinary clinic! Keep up the great work staff and docs!
Kathleen McDermott
Riverdale Vet has fine doctors, but I can't get by their mercenary practice. No money, no treatment. This is a totally for PROFIT outfit. And if you don't have ALL the money to pay, in an emergency, let's say, it is a big problem, even after being a customer for years. I understand it's a business, but it is also in the business of health care for our pets and emergencies do happen. People don't get turned away from an ER because of inability to pay, but Dr. Fried and his staff have no problem doing so.
Dachira M. Ocasio
I took my umbrella cockatoo, who was neglected and abuse for 20 years before I took it from the previous owner, to Riverdale veterinary for behavioral issues and for picking her feathers. Dr Reed suggested we do blood work to make sure everything was good. Turns out he made a good judgement call because the bird had a few issues. Can't express how I feel to know he figured out the problem and solution. Now my cockatoo Lucky has no more behavioral issue, improvement with the feather picking and no more medical issues. The staff helped me out as well with instructions on medications, making copies of all the paperwork for my records, and showed companion to my bird Lucky after hearing all of its previous neglect and abuse.
Deborah Tully
Riverdale vet take very good care of my pets. (5 cats and 1 dog). the vets the techs the receptionists, everyone treats my pets as if they were their own.
Rita B.
When an abandoned cat that I had found became ill on a Sunday, shortly after being spayed through a TNR program, I brought her to Riverdale Veterinary Group. She was treated and I brought her home, but she continued to go “down hill”. I brought her back the following Tuesday, when she was admitted to the hospital. Although I was expecting the worst, I was pleased to receive a call from Dr. Palmeri the following day, telling me that “Misty” was doing much better. I was very appreciative of the fact that Dr. Palmeri was able to diagnose, and correct Misty’s condition, without the use of more invasive diagnostic procedures. I was also pleased that the front office staff showed compassion and concern towards Misty…who is now a healthy cat. Dr. Palmeri is an excellent vet.
Emily O'Leary
Riverdale Vet has been looking after our elderly (now 18!) cat for years. He can be very cranky and mean when being handled by other people, and they've always been so understanding. Thank you so much!
Jessica Pena
Absolutely will recommend to EVERYBODY who has a fur baby. Loved the attention and care Bella received as soon as she arrived. Great staff and doctors.
Risajon Hardenwolf
We love Dr. Rosado, and not just because he's an original Brooklynite. He has been so good to our Amelia and we're thrilled to continue on with him. Also, the facilities have always been sterling clean and the front desk staff happy to assist.
Betsy Hochhauser
My cat Howard came to me as a kitten and was always sickly. I took him to Dr. Fried at Riverdale Family Practice and he was honest about how ill he was but helped me help Howie Boy live a good quality of life. Howard lived for 15 years and was the most amazing cat. Everyone at the practice knew him and made he and I feel special every-time we went in. Howard saw most of the doctors and was always treated with, what felt like, special care. When it came time for Howard to leave this earth the group helped me and Howard with love and dignity. When I am ready to get new Kitties they will go to this practice. Betsy H Silverman
Deborah Gimelson
I love taking poco to this veterinary group. Dr Fried and his colleagues are all careful and concerned and always pay close attention to the matters at hand and then check afterwards to see how Poco is doing. He is a puppy mill dog and has a few small things that go wrong but after lugging him to a vet in the West Village near where I lived for years, having this level of animal medical service close by and at reasonable rates is a blessing. Even though my dog loves the subway....
Deb Kelly
Hello Friends... I have been a Client of Riverdale Verterinary Group for many many years. They took great care of my beloved Rudy who I had to put to sleep on May 30th at 13 years old as he was suffering so in the end. The administration whisked us quickly to the back of the office as I arrived in a taxi. I am handicapped and have not driven in years. And to my fellow pet lovers, there was not a whimper not a word from anyone as we jumped the appointment line. As I left alone there were only heart felt sympathies. So now friends, I have two more baby shih-tzus Waffles and Tadhgin .. me who said never again... never ever again after my beloved shih-tzu Rudy. I have had dogs my whole life but due to my illnesses now I was and am very nervous. True to form, the Riverdale Veterinary Group was and is first rate. Everything was explained to me... in great detail.. though I am sure I appeared to be in the diaries of a mad Yonkers shih -tzu mother. I laugh so much now with these little puppies in the house again.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL !! SINCERELY , DEB KELLY
Kathy Minicozzi
They gave my very difficult cat a thorough examination and provided me with medication and an easily obtained prescription for special diet food. I feel as if they really care about our animals.

I have been going to dr. Fried and Dr. Palmieri for 10 years. They have taken care of all my animals. When my Pebbles was dieing of cancer, Dr. Palmieri a;ways answered my calls. When the time came she and the staff were there with us. RVG is the best!!!! The Tully family

Timothy Alvarez
Excellent service. Very hands on. Only issue i have is, when they have to administer any medications, they take the pet to the back and out of veiw. Something to get use to i guess. Besides that, they are quick with services. Very friendly environment.
