Provided by YP.comI too have been taking all my animals to Dr Havas for more than 20 years. His love for aimals is beyond comprehension. My dogs and cats are never shaking when we are there and they love him too. I will agree that it is a very busy and you wait but he cares so much ablout my animals that it makes it worth it and he is very affordable. I had taken my dogs for shots somewhere else and it was 350.00 for the 2 dogs and Dr Havas' prices were half of that. I LOVE HIM AND EVERYONE THERE

Provided by YP.comThis vet must make a profit on volume. This is a busy place from the moment the door opens until it closes. This would be a great location for a reality shoot, like Dr. Pol.
With that being said, I have had 5 pets go through their lifespan at this clinic and have been nothing but satisfied with the results and the prices. Under the conditions this business presents, the staff is great. Not many can work this hard and be continually dedicated.
You will wait. You will sit in a chair and stare at your phone and the other animals. Then...you'll wait a little longer. It is what it is and I'll keep coming back.

Provided by YP.comLove them! Dr Havas is the most caring man. His love and compassion for animals goes way beyond. I've compared his prices to others and your saving probably 85 percent over other vets on many things he does like teeth cleaning etc. And its because he wants them cared for.

Provided by YP.comIf I had the option to give this establishment 0 stars, I would. They do not even deserve the 1 star I am obligated to select. There is only one word to describe my experience here: TRAUMATIZING. I came to this facility under the pretenses that the vet was competent and could properly complete the job of neutering my dog. I was clearly mistaken and disgusted by the negligent care and discourteous service. Pick-up time for the animals is between 4-6pm. I called TWICE to ask for a status update on my dog and the tech assured me he was awake, alert and that surgery went well. I drove all the way to the facility only to be told that my dog was not doing well and had to stay the night. Why would you not notify me of the abnormal swelling and bleeding by phone immediately? Again, negligent.
Dr. Havas was an unsavory man with a brash attitude. He answered questions with incredible annoyance in his voice as if I was a burden to him. YOU WORK IN THE SERVICE INDUSTRY WITH CLIENTS. You would think that a vet would have the social skills to appropriately empathize and address concerns with thoughtful feedback and detailed answers. My dog is a part of my family. I didn’t bring an inanimate object in to be repaired.
The next morning, the vet said he wanted to keep my dog even longer because of “seeping.” I immediately drove to the office and adamantly requested that I take my dog to my regular vet. Dr. Havas made me wait 20 minutes only to have a conversation where he spoke to me in a condescending tone as if I were uneducated and unable to comprehend anything going on. I finally received my dog, completely bloody and barely able to move. I carried him to my car with no help and immediately took him to an emergency vet. The emergency vet did not even charge me for the examination due to the poor surgical job that Dr. Havas conducted. I had to take my dog to a specialist for an emergency surgery. Dr. Havas originally wanted me to leave my bloody, scared, and hurting dog in his care another night. I have never been so abhorred in my entire life and will make sure to let everyone with animals know to avoid this ill-mannered and inept vet.

Provided by YP.comThey need a new Doctor and staff. Customer service is terrible. Too many patients and not enough staff. Pay attention to your bill because it's not always accurate. He try to accommodate too many patients in 1 day. Not professional just a $$$ thing.

Provided by YP.comLove LLAH. Affordable, quality care and Dr. Havas is an honest, old-school guy. Expect to wait when you made an apt, but that's when happens when the care is good and they don't charge an arm and a leg. Make an apt first thing in the AM for shortest wait. Cash or check only.

Provided by YPmobileDr. Havas has no emotional connection to his job. We have been taking our dog to him since last year in regards to tumor on his rectum. Surgery had been scheduled then cancelled due to our dog becoming sick. When we took him back he said surgery was not necessary with his age. I took him in today to be seen because it seems to be growing larger. He felt the lump once then went on his computer when his receptionist, Wendy came in and said are you done can I put someone else in here...he went along with it told me they would write it up and I told them I would take my dog to the car. When I came back in know one knew anything, the other receptionist even said she was the last person that would know, so I asked An assistant to ask the doctor what was going on...he sent me to the receptionist to schedule his surgery, mind you know one went over anything with me about the details of his surgery or nothing, so as I was about to schedule the doctor came up behind me and literally raised his voice to me telling me no, know one kicked you out and I was the one who left to go to my car so know one could go over anything....he was loud, he was rude, he is very misleading, and I left without scheduling. Also my appt was at 9:15, they put us in a room at 10 and the doc did not come in till 10:39 after they realized they forgot about us. He is overbooked not sure if it's due to greed but the staff and himself can not keep up. He also acted like he has never seen him before! Awful and heartbreaking experience. I would never recommend this office, even if his prices are low it is true that you get what you pay for...

Provided by YPmobileDr. Havis has seen all of my animals for over 25 yrs now. He is a great man and is very compassionate when its time to put your best friend to sleep. Can't imagine going somewhere else!

Provided by YPmobileThey are great the doc is amazing. Their websit however should be updated because it says they open at nine am and their machine says they are closed.

Provided by YP.comThey were very nice, and for having to put an animal down, they couldn't have been nicer. Had to wait a bit, but just got that last hour with my dog. The vet was very animal friendly.

Provided by YP.comVery affordable prices! Understand that the clinic is very busy and you will have a wait regardless of what time you arrive. It is extremely busy due to great prices they offer. This is a low cost clinic so its not a fancy building in the inside,they have great employees that work hard to provide these services to you. I would recommend this office and I do drive 25 minutes each way to attend this specific clinic. Cash or Check only accepted.

Provided by YPmobileI love long lake animal hospital. My mom has been bringing her animals here for 16 years. I've been bringing my animals here and my brother brings his dog here for vet care and grooming. The place is not very up to date but what does that matter when you have great care and when the vet knows so well. Dr. Havas might not be a people person but he sure does know his stuff!! As long as I have an animal as part of my family I will always take them to long lake animal hospital. No matter how far it is from my home

Provided by YP.comI'm not quite sure what Dr. Havas alleged personal life has ANYTHING to do with his abilities at a vet. I have been taking my 7 month old puppy to him since I brought her home when she was 9 weeks old and have been extremely happy! Personally, I could care less about what Dr. Havas wants to do with his life outside of the office as long as he continues to provide excellent care for my pet. No one has any right to judge his actions with his son, who are you to point fingers? How do you know that his son wasn't abusing his wife and son? Or that his son wasn't a drug addict causing his family more harm than good? You don't. Stick to the facts of why so many people are choosing to take their pets to him: he is an excellent vet who provides superb care at low costs which proves even more that he isn't just in this for the money (he genuinely wants what is best for your animal). Leave the rest of your BS facts out of the equation because they have absolutely nothing to do with the reason you're going to hire Dr. Havas in the first place. Thanks.
