5.0 of 5 stars. This has not been a good year for my cat Booboo; first a cast, then stitches. The staff members at St. Marks were kind, professional, and understanding (plus they remembered my cat; I'm sure she was...

1.0 of 5 stars. I am in increasingly disappointed with St. Marks Vet. My concerns are similar to many of those below. I have reluctantly come to the conclusion that St. Mark's services are dramatically overpriced,...

2.0 of 5 stars. I had a sick ferret, and was sent from one vet to another to this one, being that this one sees ferrets. I rushed over and had to fill out paperwork while they took my sick little ferret to the back....

2.0 of 5 stars. I have to say the staff couldn't be nicer but on every occasion that I had to bring my dogs there the bill was in the high $100's-$1000's. I am an animal lover and would go to any expense to have my...

Do not recommend

When I got my first dog a friend recommended St Mark's so maybe at one time they were good, but not in my experience. In retrospect (and after having found a great vet since), I actually feel preyed upon by...

overcharged

although the satff was really nice, they over charge for everything. i looked at all the medicine they prescribed my dog online and it was a fraction of the cost.

expensive, not the best

I went here b/c my cat freaked out when I took her anywhere, and this place was the closest to my house. She got diagnosed with cancer and unfortunately died(not due to vets care--she was just very sick) But they could have made the experience a whole lot better for me with what they charged me. They didn't spend much time with me. When I had to have her put to sleep they charged me SO much money. On the up side one of the female vets stayed a little later than when the place closed because my cat absolutely needed a steroid shot that evening, which was a Godsend at the time for sure. But when I had to have her put to sleep they were ALL about the money. Not even an "Im sorry" on the phone. Anyway, overall, I just don't think they were worth the price. I wish I liked them more. I might pay the prices b/c they are so close if they were a little nicer on the whole.

St Marks Vet Is Great

I really don't believe some of these reviews. I have been going to The ST Marks Vet for 15 Years. None of the things mentioned here have ever happened to me. Dr. Haddock has never suggested any un necessary...

I had been a loyal user of St Mark's Vet - even traveling all the way from 9th Avenue & 16th Street because one of the vets there had been so good with my mini schnauzer. However, after that particular doctor...

They're pretty much just after your money

The worst vet I've ever been to - they are just after money, pushing you to do unnecessary procedures, playing on a pet owner's desire to do the best thing for their animal. I wound up paying $700 for a dental...
