Veterinaire Pet Care

Separate entrances and separate waiting rooms for cats and dogs is the first thing that signals how Veterinaire Pet Care thinks about a visit — a design choice on Marin Boulevard that spares feline patients the stress of a lobby full of barking. The practice blends traditional veterinary medicine with alternative and holistic approaches, offering acupuncture, homeopathic medicine, dietary and nutritional counseling, and vitamins and supplements alongside routine health exams, spay and neuter, surgery, dental care, geriatric care, microchipping, and treatment for acute and chronic illnesses. Diagnostics run through X-rays, ultrasound, and bloodwork, and pet travel certificates handle the paperwork for families relocating out of the New York metro area. Dr. Cory Waxman brings an unusual background to the work — a Bergen County native who volunteered at animal shelters as a kid, earned a biochemistry degree from Northwestern and his VMD from Penn, interned at Boston's Franklin Park Zoo working with giraffes, lions, camels, and endangered birds, and conducted research developing artificial reproduction methods for endangered canine and feline species. He's been treating pets in northern New Jersey since 2011. Educating owners and inviting them into the decision-making is the stated differentiator, and an after-hours line means the relationship doesn't end at closing.
