Who We Are
Our Astoria location has been part of the community for several years and holds an integral part of the community. Our clients are our neighbors (literally!), and we take care of each other. Our hospital is built on having amazing relationships with our patients. We are looking to add a managing veterinarian to our ever-growing practice. With access to the MTA NYC Transit, Museum of Moving Image, and an endless number of restaurants, everyone is always talking about Astoria being the place to be. Astoria is easily commutable by train or car and is only 20 minutes from Manhattan. With our vibrant and diverse community, Astoria is the heart of Queens, and VCG Astoria is a part of that.
Veterinary Care Group started out as an idea by veterinary professionals who were passionate about their work and were looking to change the current veterinary experience by creating a fulfilling journey to build long-lasting relationships with clients and their pets. At VCG, we believe in people power! Veterinary care is a noble profession, and everything starts with the heart: Love, Honesty, Teamwork, and Dedication.
