Welcome to Long Island's leading hospital for Avian and Exotics pets. Our team includes board-certified veterinarians, trained to meet the needs of your birds, reptiles, small mammals and other exotic pets-exclusively. At Long Island Bird & Exotics, we specialize in treating avian and exotic pets including reptiles, parrots, sugar gliders, rabbits, chinchillas and other small mammals.

We provide regular checkups for preventative care as well as advanced veterinary services such as endoscopy, anesthesia and minimally invasive surgery. We also provide emergency veterinary services, boarding and grooming. Our patients come from Long Island and the entire NYC area, including Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Staten Island, as well as Connecticut and New Jersey.

We are the only avian and exotic pet hospital in Nassau County and we proudly serve pets from Long Island, NYC, Westchester County, New Jersey and Connecticut. Unlike traditional vets who see mostly cats and dogs, we are a specialty animal hospital with specially-trained vets who are experts in caring for and treating reptiles, amphibians, small mammals, parrots and other birds.
