Downtown Veterinary Associates

Downtown Veterinary Associates at 282 First Street is one amazing veterinary location in Jersey City, NJ. The vets and staff are professional and.caring to pets and their owners. I have had 4 of my pups and my cat visit over the last few years. I trust them implicitly when I bring my pets in to be checked out. Special kudos to their amazing team of Dr. Mirei Sakane, Max the tech, and Grace, Christina and Jennifer at the front desk.

We had a wonderful experience with Dr. Ponce and her team! She helped us navigate all the international paperwork and health requirements for our overseas trip with our dog, Montana. Dr. Ponce is extremely professional, super knowledgeable, and took the time to guide us through every detail to make sure everything was in order. Her staff is also very friendly and helpful — they made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend for anyone needing expert veterinary care or travel documentation support!

The staff here is wonderful! The front desk is so helpful and are always so nice to us and our boys (dogs). They diagnosed one of our dogs with Cushing disease and got the medication quickly. They found the first signs of lymphoma in our other boy. We are so grateful we found them! This staff is fantastic! Too many to name… all of them… thank you!

My poor baby Ruby was constipated and uncomfortable the blessed angel Jennifer was able to fit my baby in on short notice and helped me bring comfort to myself along with my baby. Whole staff was beyond caring and to the doctor who cared for my sweet baby thank you for being so caring and gentle with her overall an amazing experience will bring all my cats from here now on. Definitely highly recommend!!!!

My puppy’s first visit to this vet and I must say it was very pleasant. They made my Luna feel so special and handled her with care and kindness. Everyone in the office was very helpful and kind. Shout out to Dr. Drelich and Jennifer the office manager who took very good care of me and my Luna. I highly recommend this place for all your pets needs.
