Some of Dr. Amy Atta's clients in her 30 years providing house calls for pets included the late Joan Rivers, Cher and Billy Joel.

Thursday, June 13, 2024 5:44PM MANHATTAN --But veterinarians who make house calls for pets? That still happens. And one veterinarian in Manhattan says she's been doing them for three decades and ready to tell it all."All of the stress that's associated with going to the vet's office is eliminated when I come to his home," Atta said while caring for one of her many patients, a 19-year-old cat named Puddy.

Atta opened her practice "City Pets" after leaving her job at an animal hospital on the Upper East Side. She thought the house calls would be temporary. They were not, and soon her convenience began to appeal to celebrities."Billy Joel has been a client for a really long time," added Atta. "I recall going to his apartment.

Atta's house calls cost about 30% more than a typical visit to an animal hospital in Manhattan, but her clients appreciate the most cost-effective approach. "This is our child, and we would do anything for our children, so it's worth the cost." said client Lisa Healey. "It's worth every penny. I don't even think about it."ALSO READ:
