Willing to do everything possible to help my pets. Expensive but worth it in my book. Always willing to do all he can to help my pets get well. Very responsive when contacted any day of the week, holidays, etc. Very caring too. Other vets might automatically decide it’s not cost-effective to undergo treatment, but this vet will never tell you to give up unless he really feels it’s the humane course of action.

Racking up COSTLY VISIT BY VET. I went to Queens Animal Hospital after reading about Dr. Haiman being a holistic vet. I was hoping Dr. Haimann would be my dog's veterinarian and left never wanting to return. My dog was traumatized after this visit. If I could give a 0 rating for Dr. Haimann I would. I noticed this veterinarian through his website as having a holistic approach. My small dog is very obedient and cooperative by nature. After bringing my dog in for testing, and dropping her off at curbside, I realized Dr. Mark Haimann doesn't do anything holistic. Queens Animal Health in Fresh Meadows is THE WORST Veterinary Clinic. Dr. Mark Haimann is very aggressive in his approach with pets. He took my dog for testing and treated her with drugs without my consent so he can rack up a costly veterinary visit. He lied about my puppy being feisty and gave a tranquilizer, sedating her in order to take X-rays. He told me its a small dose of a sedative and she will be awake in 15 minutes. As I waited over 45 minutes for him to take X-rays and to come up with a diagnosis he told me she is just waking up and he gave her a steroid. He didn't even know my dog's name. When I asked why he gave the steroid without my consent, he stated "I'm the doctor!" I replied by telling him, yes, that's why I brought her to you but I wish you consulted or discussed your procedure with me prior to just going ahead with a treatment plan. I requested they return my little dog immediately without further treatment. The receptionist brought my dog quivering in an extremely frazzled condition. I have never seen her as such! As I waited patiently for the invoice of services rendered, Dr. Haimann gave me a bag with medication. I paid the bill immediately and requested her medical records be released to me, her owner. After several cordial requests to email me the diagnosis and prognosis, Dr. H. took over 1 month to send X-ray results. They keep giving me the run-around about releasing my pet's diagnosis and prognosis. To date, I have paid Queens Animal Hospital in full after the visit on July 29th, but they have failed to provide me with all of my dogs records. Best of all, Dr. Mark Haimann handed over medication without a name on the bottle. IS THAT A LEGAL OR ILLEGAL action? BM

I would never recommend them to anyone. They were terrible. They definitely didn't have enough staff members on hand. It seemed like one person was trying to do everything, and I ended up waiting for a very long time. There's no way I'll ever be back to this provider. I couldn't believe how insensitive they were when my pet was sick. My veterinarian didn't even seem to care that I was upset and it just made the experience that much worse. I did not feel safe at all in their care. I definitely had doubts about their qualifications. my poor little mc goo was just a 7month old kitten he was first born healthy and playful after dr, haiman did surgery to neuter him he looked terrible. and dr haiman told me one testicle had not dropped and he what he found looked like an ovary and if I wanted it tested it would cost me another $125.00 to test it. it had already cost me $800.00 for a what was suppose to be a simple low cost procedure. I was given medication for my cat and when I asked what it was they could not tell me what it was. Another vet I spoke to said it predisone. He proceed to look terrible but he was still eating but not playing his sisters were neutered by aspca with no problems. In the past couple of days he stopped eating and was really mushy I was going to take him to the vet today. But sadly my poor mcgoo started seizing at 5 am an within the hour passed on.

Dr. Haimann was the only vet who was able to relieve my cat's severe allergies - and I had visited five (including holistic ones) formerly. For allergies, I wouldn't go to anyone else. He is a litlle on the expensive side but, bottom line, he gets results.

I hate to say it, but I'm not sure I would trust them alone with my pet.
