Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Yakov Sheynberg graduated and received his doctorate degree with Honors at Moscow Veterinary Academy in 1981. He continued his studies and clinical training at the University of Columbia, Missouri. He became the first Russian-speaking licensed veterinarian in New York in 1994. Sheepshead Bay Veterinary Group was founded in 1995 under his direct participation. Dr. Sheynberg's professional interests include internal medicine, dentistry, surgery, and ophthalmology. Rather often, Dr. Sheynberg can be seen arriving at the office accompanied by his two furry friends, Andy, a dachshund, and Pimo, a Himalayan cat. Andy is his loyal companion during his hikes at the park.
