Dr. Lim is and has always been the unbelievable best vet we've ever found. She is not just talented, but compassionate beyond belief. Dr. Lim will and has always gone the limit to assure you and your loved pets every available option to remedy your stressful situation. She not only loves animals, but she loves people too. I truly believe anyone posting less than 5 stars, really does not know the true Dr. Lim. And for this, you are really missing someone of great value.

Over the past 40 years my family and I have watched how much this practice has declined due to…read moremanagement staff and certain veterinarian staff members. I HIGHLY recommend taking your loved family member to a different veterinary practice. I am extremely disappointed by the care my dog received at Murray Hill Veterinary Associates. In my experience, my dog was misdiagnosed by Dr. P and mistreated by Dr. C while suffering from multiple serious and life-threatening health conditions that required immediate and coordinated medical attention. Management staff, Nate and Jessica along with Dr. H and Dr. B failed to provide these services due to me advocating for my family member. Dr. H issued a prescription that contained improper dosing information. As a responsible and concerned pet owner, I advocated for my dog and requested a corrected prescription. At that point, office managers Jessica and Nathan became involved. What should have been a straightforward correction escalated unnecessarily. Their approach, in my experience, was dismissive and rude rather than solution-oriented. Instead of de-escalating the situation and ensuring my dog received prompt and appropriate care, the handling of my concerns created further confusion, delays, and stress. The breakdown in communication and the manner in which my concerns were handled significantly worsened the situation. From my perspective, the lack of professionalism and compassion from management created a cascading effect that ultimately impacted the veterinarians involved, including Dr. H and Dr. B. What could have been resolved quickly became, in my view, a much larger and avoidable disaster due to poor communication and failure to prioritize patient care. I also experienced instances where crucial messages left with Jessica and Nate that I requested to be passed along to the veterinarians were, to my knowledge, not communicated. When a pet has life-threatening medical conditions, any delay or miscommunication can have serious consequences. No pet owner advocating for accurate dosing, proper treatment, and timely care should be met with hostility or dismissal. Advocacy should never result in escalation or obstruction. There was multiple obstruction caused by management staff, Jessica, and Nate. Additionally, I formally requested a complete copy of my dog's medical records in August and am still waiting to be notified that they are ready for pickup. In my opinion, the handling of this situation reflects broader concerns involving management -- including Jessica and Nathan -- as well as Dr. H, Dr. B, and ALL other veterinary partners associated with the practice. I have serious concerns regarding duty of care, continuity of treatment, and the way I was treated after raising legitimate medical concerns Because certain matters are currently being pursued through appropriate channels, I am limited in the additional details I can publicly share at this time. However, I strongly encourage pet owners to carefully consider their options and ensure they feel respected, heard, and supported when seeking care for their animals. Pets are family. They deserve competent, coordinated, and compassionate care -- and their owners deserve professionalism when advocating for them.

To correct the 6/25 HFGDR response from my earlier post, we never indicated that we wanted a hypo…read moreallergenic dog. I have no idea where that came from. Our dog was a mixed breed Sato rescue from the SPCA, which was a wonderful experience. My dog before that was a mixed breed rescue as well. Our application was never denied. In fact, we were approved for an aged 6 month + adoption and I have the evidence from attending an adoption fair. It was after that fair, that achieving any follow up was very difficult, though I eventually did receive an email after many attempts. I gather the respondent confused me with a different applicant. I know there is a lot of good work done there and the dogs look great, it was just difficult to communicate so we moved on.

I believe these issues deserve closer scrutiny. There's also publicly available information from 2019 indicating that this organization was involved in legal proceedings related to record-keeping. Reports suggest that certain health details may not have been accurately disclosed to adoptive families at the time. If you'd like to explore that further, there's information online you can review. I encourage everyone to form their own conclusions based on the facts available.

What I didn't realize was that I was talking (texting) with Dr. Mini, herself, even though she was ON VACATION!

I called them on a Saturday evening when it became clear our beloved cat was suffering and that it was his "time" and to my relief they were able to be there within 30 minutes. I am immeasurably grateful for their help at this difficult time, for their heartfelt kindness and patience and to explain everything to us and help us understand, after examining our cat, that we were making the right decision. They let us take as much time as we needed through the process. They could not have been more perfect, from the very first telephone conversation, they said all the right things, with authentic empathy and caring - for us and our cat - and helped so very much as we did the kindest thing we could do for our kitty and let him go peacefully. I sincerely wish them all the best, and recommend them highly to anyone needing veterinary care for their beloved pet.

We have found a few dozen people with the same experience as ours since sharing our experience…read more On Nov 10 we brought Petey for routine shots when Dr Sobel told us that he needed a tiny mass taken out of his back leg. He said we could do it that day. We told him that Petey had eaten and suggested rescheduling since it wasn't an emergency. Dr Sobel assured us that he would be just fine & that he had 30 years of veterinary experience. We trusted his judgement and he began taking Petey away without further discussion. After leaving his office, we called twice to make sure that he was sure Petey would be okay since he had eaten. He kept assuring us confidently. A few hours later we got a call from him saying 'I lost your dog' and went on to explain how the complication occurred because he had eaten. Anyone with a medical background, let alone a 'veterinarian of 30 years should know better! When we went back to his office Anthony and I walked upstairs to see his best friend lying on what seemed to be the kitchen table of a house? His tech said 'he f*ed up- I told him not to operate but he said he needed the money'. When the Long Hill Police arrived, they were more than helpful in assisting us with the report. Again, the vet tech told us that she repeatedly suggested that he did not perform surgery on Petey but still, he insisted. She expressed strong negative verbiage about her feelings toward him and further proved that Dr Sobel was negligent and responsible for Petey's wrongful death. I have to thank the police department again for getting ice for Petey, helping us transport him and for their moral and professional support through such a tense, emotional situation. Petey deserved better than this and so do your beloved family members, which is why I am sharing this. Respectively, we ask that you share Petey's story. Like I said, we have come across a few dozen families who've experienced loss similar to ours because of Dr Sobel's negligence and he is still sending bills to these people. Please, do not trust this man with your animals
