We brought Lilly here as a referral for neurology as she was having difficulty with her hind legs. Dr Bishop did a thorough neurological exam and did determine it was in fact a neurological issue. He recommended a MRI to diagnose the problem as it could be a variety of spinal issues. After the MRI, Lilly was having difficulty breathing (French Bulldog) so they had to keep her intubated and sedated. He reached out to the soft tissue specialists who then felt it was best to remove some of the soft palette and redo her nasal passage (it was done when she was a puppy by another hospital-at the time they said her palette did not need it). Dr Bishop explained how it can stretch over time cause a blockage in her airway. He was so informative and kept us abreast every step of the way with updates as to how she was doing through it all. Although the results of the MRI shows degenerative issues, we appreciate how well the whole facility communicated everything to us. They were very professional and caring for our fur baby.

Great care was taken of our pet during every aspect of her treatment. The surgical vet as well as all staff was in constant communications with us over the course of her treatment. Highly recommend UVS and Dr Palamara

Parker was hospitalized at Upstate Veterinary Specialist over the weekend because he was sick. The doctors and staff were absolutely amazing. They worked quickly to find out what was wrong with him and kept in touch with every update. I highly recommend them.

We brought our sweet dog Link to Upstate Veterinary Specialties when he was experiencing some scary symptoms. Shortly after our visit, we were made aware that he had cancer and he would need surgery and chemotherapy after. We have been bringing Link to Upstate Veterinary Specialties since then and everyone there has been so kind throughout the entire process. Doctor Verrilli and her team do an outstanding job of showing compassion and understanding through some very difficult decisions. They also answer super quickly when something new comes up with Link. We are very lucky to have the best staff for Link and we will be telling all of our friends that ever need to get serious care for their pets that Upstate Veterinary Specialties is the place to go.

Last year our dog Mabel broke out with severe lesions all over her back. We were advised by our local shelter Director that we should take her to the best veterinarian hospital in the Capital Region. It was an expensive trip but we finally found out that she has Cushings Disease. We are treating her with a prescription and she is fine. We are thankful for Dr. Bay's care and concern in treatment of Mabel. We call her the Miracle Dog! When we took her back to her regular veterinarian they called her a miracle. As far as we're concerned, the miracle came from the care we got at Upstate Vet. Specialists. So if you are ever in the Albany, NY area, and need a vet, go to Upstate Vet. Specialists and visit Dr. Bay and Staff.

Dr. Baer has been our vet for 12 years. Yes he meets all the prerequisites of being knowledgeable, dependable, etc but more than that, Dr. Baer is truly one of the most caring doctrs I have ever met. He has been there for us with our first bully Monty and now is our bully Tarzans best friend Vet. Recently, my wife and I decided to foster bulldogs and our Rescues vets are over an hour away. Although Dr. Baer does not have a program dedicated to assist rescued or fostered dogs, without hesitation, he has graciously aided us when issues arise and he has done this with his heart. There is nothing better than for us to return the favor. He truly is the best Vet!
