About
Sensing the growing need for a high standard of care for the pets located in the Chelsea and Greenwich Village neighborhoods, Dr. Janet Ficarra established the Downtown Veterinary Clinic in 1996. The clinic also provides services to pets seen through the house call service, which has been offered to most of lower Manhattan since 1986. In 2011, Dr. Schaubhut joined the practice.

Dr. Ficarra has been a member of the Veterinary Medical Association of NYC and the NYS Veterinary Medical Association since 1984. In addition to her NY Sate license, she holds licenses from California and Washington State. With 22 years of experience relieving veterinarians in the Greater New York area and owning her own facility, Dr. Ficarra has gained an in-depth understanding of the city-pet and human-animal bonds, and the need for compassionate treatment of all pets. Dr. Ficarra is one of the few vets that still make housecalls in New York City.
