Veteran-Owned and Community-Focused

Founded in 1953, our woman-owned and veteran-operated clinic is led by Dr. Barbara 'DocBodo' Bodolosky, a U.S. Army veteran with over 30 years of experience. We treat every patient as our own, serving families across the Hudson Valley and visitors from New York City with unwavering loyalty.

What Our Customers Say

Will Nova

I’m so thankful to Dr B; Jessica and Jack for an amazing job that they performed on our beloved girl Lulu. She’s a 6 yo Terrier mix and she developed terrible teeth; plaque and periodontal disease. Through 2 visits for an evaluation and annual vaccines we felt confident to bring her here for a very serious dental procedure. Dr B is always SO kind; informative and non judgmental. Jessica and Jack treated us very well and more so; took great effort to make sure Lulu felt comfortable and safe. They handled her with care. Yesterday was the day of the procedure; we were kept informed throughout with (3) calls from the Hospital to us! Never did we have to check on her; we were kept firmly in the loop. Upon pickup; I was extremely grateful for the affordable price we were given; which was on the lower scale of the detailed estimate Dr B had given us; with extremely detailed work performed. She absolutely is an incredible Dr and person. The best bedside manner I’ve ever seen from a Veterinarian (and I managed a pet hospital in my job history and have visited with the major pet hospitals in Orange Cty). She gave us a detailed breakdown of the procedure and our follow up instructions. Our Lulu is so much healthier now. I couldn’t be more pleased; grateful or Thankful that we found this Wonderful Veterinary Hospital. 10 out of 10 in every way. Strongly recommend that you bring your Pet Family here. Thank you :)))))

Rachel G.

Best experience I ever had at a vet. I was visiting family in the area they took me in last minute for an emergency. I am a certified crazy overprotective dog mom and they made me feel normal there. Nurse and doctor were super patient and answered all my questions and calmed all my probably not-so-rational fears. Front desk staff were super friendly and professional. Me and puppy uzi really enjoyed our experience there. Thank you for the great customer service!

Felicia Charles

So my name is Felicia I had a dog Onyx that I had to bring in because it was his time to cross over the fur babies puppy rainbow bridge. But before brought him I called the vet and told them what was going on. When speaking with them I was a mess but they were so kind and caring over the phone. A when I got there they were still amazing. Everyone at the vets office where kind and gentle with my sweet boy all the why till the end. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for everything you did.

Stephen T.

Whenever I have called for help or advice I have received a very helpful response. Appointments were quickly scheduled and the visit to the office was a pleasant one. The staff is caring and the doctor is very easy to talk to and explains things in an easy-to-understand way. I have complete confidence that the diagnosis is correct and the treatment will be conducted properly. Odie has been successfully treated for cancer, being prone to having seizures and a thyroid deficiency. Odie is 15 now due to the good care given to him by Dr. B. and her staff. Steve Tollin

Tierra W

After being turned down by every local veterinarian within a 60 mile radius for an absolute EMERGENT situation involving our family dog, we carried him into Sullivan Veterinary Hospital with the highest hopes a person could ever have. All staff, office manager, the technicians, and the DVM were the most compassionate people we could’ve asked for. They went above and beyond for my family in a very tragic situation and there is nothing we could ever do to repay them for the attention, care and support they offered us during our visit. Thank you all for doing everything possible to save our Moosey.

Caitlyn Moreno

We absolutely love Dr. B! From the very first visit, she made us feel so welcome and truly cared for our puppy, Rover, like he was her own. She’s not only incredibly knowledgeable and thorough, but also warm, patient, and gentle—everything you’d want in a vet. She takes the time to explain everything in a way that’s easy to understand and always answers all our questions without ever rushing us. Rover felt so comfy that he actually fell asleep in her arms❤️ It’s clear she has a genuine passion for animals, and we’re so grateful to have her as part of Rover’s journey. If you’re looking for a vet who’s both compassionate and top-notch, Dr. B is the one!
