You can rest assured that you and your furry friends will be well taken care of at Point Breeze Veterinary Clinic. In 1977, Dr. Gerson founded the Point Breeze Veterinary Clinic as a family veterinary practice, providing care primarily for cats and dogs. He is a 1975 graduate of the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine, and a past president of its Alumni Society, which has also awarded Larry their Award of Merit.
Opened in 2006, Point 2 For Healthy Pets is the "office next door" from our flagship office that has occupied the Reynolds Street block since the practice's inception. Point 2 For Healthy Pets started as a location to allow our practice to expand, giving more space for routine examinations, wellness visits, vaccinations, and minor illnesses.
Staff and Docs are all caring, professional and very knowledgeable. This team goes above and beyond to make sure your pet is comfortable and the pet parent is well-informed. Best clinic I have ever visited! Honestly one of the best vet clinics I've taken a pet to - definitely the best in Pittsburgh.

Amazing and wonderful staff and the best veteranarian office I've ever been to. I travel from out of town to take my senior dachshund to see Dr LiVolsi for chiropractic adjustments and I couldn't be more happy! She is super sweet and so very knowledgeable! Dr Schroth took time out of her busy schedule to check my dog over and to educate me on some of my dogs health issues. Dr LiVolsi and Dr Schroth -- thank you so much!

Roy, Katie, and Luna loved Dr. Finnerty and Coleman! After shuttling between a few different vets, I was very impressed with the bedside manner and time that my cats received. Luna has been having some ongoing health issues, and Dr. Finnerty provided the most thoughtful responses about options than I have received anywhere else. The facility was also the modern and well-kept. I'm happy to have found a vet home for my fur-babies and I'll be recommending my fellow cat parents to this clinic!

We moved to Pittsburgh in 2020 and selected Point Breeze as our Vet. I can't tell you how happy we are that we did. Up until this past week, we've had our two dogs (German Shepherd and Golden Doodle) in for regular shots and exams only. This week, our Golden Doodle was not eating, getting sick, etc. We were able to get him in immediately and I can't tell you how blown away we are with the level of customer service, care and support we have received. Dr. Berger was so fantastic with communicating with us and spent time explaining the disease our dog was diagnosed with and the prognosis.
They were able to get test results same day and watched him closely for two days. The vet tech was absolutely amazing when I went to pick him up and you can tell that he was loved on so much while he was there. They truly care about your pet and you. Thank you to Dr. Berger, the vet techs that took care of him, and the front desk for helping us through this!

My experiences with this place are old and still painful. I was sent here with my old cat because my veterinarian was fatally ill. Dr. Gerson said my cat was terminal. When I I said I'd take her home he coldly advised me that wasn't an option, killed her, and sent me on my way. But people said he was a good vet, so when I got a dog, I took her to him for a check-up.
He frightened her and, when I expressed concern, shooed me out of the room. She emerged with a bandaged leg dripping blood. They were dismissive of my concern. I never went there again, and my dog never had such an awful experience again. I have no idea where they get a decent reputation

We couldn't be happier with our experiences with the Point Breeze Vet team and would recommend them to any pet owner. Our rescue pup, Tucker, has been a frequent visitor over the last 11 months as we try to work through an assortment of medical issues. He's seen nearly every vet in the clinic at this point, and each of them has been equally attentive, kind, and genuinely caring.
The tech and front desk teams are always patient yet efficient as we scramble to deal with whatever comes Tuck's way at any given time. I know they would move mountains to try to help him feel better because they've done so before. Tucker is always excited to see them and happily goes into the office with them every time. They're very tolerant of his interesting personality mix of anxiety and exuberance. They are everything that I would hope for in a vet clinic and we're so grateful to have them down the street from us!

From the "responsibilities of a dog owner" talk from Dr Gerson on Buddy's and our initial visit to puppy kindergarten, annual checkups and occasional emergency visits with all the docs to the compassion and humanity exhibited by Dr Berger and staff on his final day with us, our Wheaten received top-notch care from PBV over his nearly 16 fun-filled years. I/we will be forever grateful for the peace and comfort all there brought to Buddy and us.

Exceptional veterinary office across the board! My young cat ate a lily leaf - highly toxic to cats! - and it is entirely thanks to the responsiveness, diligence, and exceptional care of Dr. Berger and the Point Breeze team that he made it through without developing chronic/life threatening symptoms. They sprang into action as soon as I called and were able to see us right away to take care of our pet emergency.
They kept me updated throughout the process and were transparent and thorough in walking us through the procedures and price points of his care. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Thank you, Point Breeze Veterinary Clinic!

We received excellent care for our kitty, today! It was hard for us to have to change veterinarians, but the care at Point Breeze Veterinary Clinic has made the transition easier. Caroline, the doctor, and Christina, the tech, were welcoming and friendly while providing a thorough exam for our kitty. (Our social interactions have greatly decreased since covid, which makes each positive interaction especially appreciated!) More importantly, they covered all bases! It's comforting for us to know that our kitty is in such good hands. Kudos to Point Breeze Veterinary Clinic!
