A native Long Islander, Dr. Steinberg grew up on the North Shore of Nassau County in Roslyn, N.Y. He spent his summers riding horses and teaching, and has always had an affinity for animals and nature. Dr. Steinberg graduated from Tufts University School of Veterinary Medicine in 2005. Following veterinary school, he completed a rotating small animal surgery and medicine internship at the Animal Medical Center in New York City and spent the following year as an emergency veterinarian in New York City. Dr. Steinberg is grateful for having the privilege of practicing alongside several outstanding veterinary specialists over the years.
In 2010, Dr. Steinberg moved back to Long Island from NYC to continue practicing exceptional veterinary medicine. His focus is on general practice combined with a keen understanding of a pet’s emotional needs as well as their medical ones, and he prioritizes the ability to communicate effectively with pet parents. He continues to focus on and teach the value of working with pet owners to improve their pet’s lives. His special interests in veterinary medicine include neurology, emergency medicine, and being the bridge between owners and pets.
Our office is home to four cats (Mario, Betty, Stanley, and Sabrina) and our beloved office tortoise named Torti. Dr. Steinberg has a second zoo of animals at home, with another four cats and two dogs! Aussiedoodle Lily, Cavapoo Sandy, and cats Salt, Pepper, Millie, and Puck. When Dr. Steinberg is not working, you can probably find him running, hiking, and going to hockey games. Most importantly, Dr. Steinberg enjoys spending as much time with his family as possible.
