About the Business
Business owner information
Geri K.
Established in 2012. Dr. Geri Katz is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania's School of Veterinary Medicine. She has practiced as a small animal veterinarian for over fifteen years, but has a particular fondness for felines. "Cats are such a unique species. They have complex social dynamics and an evolutionary physiology which makes them different than being smaller versions of any other species. They are brave and subtle and can be puzzling at times." Dr. Katz Feels that a significant number of feline medical illnesses can be explained by nutritional imbalances and uses a natural approach whenever possible.

I took in a stray on a Sunday and Dr. Katz squeezed me in for an appt. at 12:30 Monday. Office is very well cared for, I love that she specializes in cats, she has a very calm nature and is definitely in the right career. She loved on my cat for awhile before getting to work which was sweet. We had to have a whole work up done and I was mentally preparing to be taken advantage of by a vet but the final bill was very honest and fair. Even in our discussions she gave me options so as not to make me feel forced to buy the products she carried in office...I ended up getting her products anyway because by the end of the first visit I completely valued and trusted whatever she put her name on.

I had my second visit to AristoKatz this week. Both the facility and quality of care are outstanding. Prices are in line with other vet practices. Highly recommend.

We brought our pet for a second opinion only to be subjected to excessive and expensive tests performed by outside labs. When questioned these inconclusive lab results with the lab and G. Katz, G. Katz called us frustrated, furious, disrespectful, and refused to do further treatment. In my professional opinion, I believe that G. Katz should NOT practice veterinarian medicine.

I am extremely happy I found this vet. The facilities are clean - and things just make sense. They use an app so you can schedule your own appointments etc. - it's actually really easy to use. The staff is so friendly and helpful. They have feliway all over the place which is so helpful (a plug in that signals to cats they are safe, helps keep them calm). They have nice (maybe heated?) mats on the exam tables that seem so clean and definitely are better than a cold metal surface. We've seen Dr. Prescia and she had insights other vets didn't. I am not sure why! I believe she's very good at her job and thorough. We're thrilled about it- I wish I found her sooner! Visits seem way less stressful than other places we've been. Prices seem comparable or good/ fair so far. I hope I can go to this vet furrever!

I concur with all of the very positive reviews of AristoKatz and Dr. Katz. Wonderful, caring, knowledgeable, highly skilled vet who truly cares about the animals in her care. We cannot thank her enough - and her wonderful staff - for providing only the best of care for one of our stray "elders" (Two Boots the Tuxedo). He came down with a random abcess on the side of his face (no idea how or why - all of my cats are indoors), had to have a few tubes put in to drain it, antibiotic shot and several other treatments. He is NOT easy to handle, but Dr. Katz and her staff are the quintessential professionals. Thank you, thank you, thank you, one and all, for your kind and skilled treatment!

We were referred to Dr. Katz by a friend and I am SO glad we were! Dr. Katz is knowledgeable, and she is so good with the patients and their "cat parents". I have called her personal cell when the vet was closed and she was so helpful on answering my questions. I have always been able to get an appointment ASAP if needed, and the pricing is completely fair- not outrageous like some clinics and walk ins. I am always greeted with a smile and great advice. Love everyone that works there and my little guys do too. I also like how they specialize
In cats- some places don't have a lot of experience when it comes to only cats, so each visit I know Dr. Katz has my pets' full interest at heart. I recommend AristoKatz to all who have cats and need someone who is completely trustworthy and so kind.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Nancy M.Milford, CT072Jan 30, 2021
Today was my first time bringing Finny to Dr. Katz and her team. Emilee managed to get us in last minute. I am so impressed. The visit was seamless. Everyone was so nice snd caring. Dr. Katz explained everything she was doing. I was able to be right outside the exam room and talk to Finn while he had his visit. The cost was reasonable and Finn even got a little goodie bag to take home!! Five stars Happy we've found a great doctor!!

Dr. Katz is amazing. After 6 months of treatment (including surgery!) by another vet, my cat was no better off. Dr. Katz was able to accurately diagnose and treat my buddy based on one visit. She made excellent recommendations, and he got better within a few days! I can't overstate Dr. Katz's competence and thoroughness.

Being brand new to the area, choosing a vet was daunting. After a thorough search, and meeting with 2 other vets near Norwalk/Wilton, I chose Dr. Katz to clean my Cat Jimmy's Teeth and possibly to do an extraction. Turns out Jimmy needed two extractions including his chipped Canine tooth. Shockingly he already seems much happier only 2 days after the surgery.
The doctor - I am careful about medical care. Dr. Katz is a graduate of The University of Pennsylvania Vet School. For those that don't know, this is the arguably the best Vet school on the east coast and one of the best in the world. Imagine seeing an MD who went to Harvard, that's Dr. Katz.
The clinic - a small Cat only clinic where all the latest updated equipment, Digital Dental X-rays, and surgical center. I even checked into a specialist dental surgeon at one point, and as it turned out Dr. Katz was the better choice.
If you live within driving distance of Aristokatz consider yourself fortunate and patronize this business for all your Cat's needs. One of the highest review I have left for any business.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jessica M.CT, CT09Oct 14, 2021
Everyone is super nice there but the two times I have gone it has been over an hour wait each time. Cats are not that great at waiting and it also doesn't seem respectful of my time. I really wish they didn't significantly overbook.

Came to my home and gave my extremely difficult 16 year old cat a long overdue checkup. She was favoring a hind leg and not looking so well. I have given up being able to get her in a cat carrier she is that combative.
My only option was a home visit. They were wonderful. Bravo.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
