Veterinarian Overview
Dr. Max J Meltzer earned his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from St. Georges University in the beautiful West Indies, and completed clinical training at Louisiana State University. His first pet was a Cockapoo named Elvis, whose lovable personality and battle with cancer inspired him to pursue a career in the veterinary field. Dr. Meltzers compassionate nature, veterinary medical skills, and dedication to serving clients and their pets makes Dr. Meltzer a valuable addition to the Levittown Animal Hospital team. He has professional interests in radiology and surgery, and has completed Fear Free Certification in an effort to minimize stress and anxiety in his patients. A native New Yorker, Dr. Meltzer grew up in New York City and Merrick, and still resides in both locations today. He has three family pets: A Cockapoo named Sadie, a Maltipoo named Ella, and a feline named Casper. When Dr. Meltzer is not seeing patients, his favorite activities involve anything in the snow or in the water. He also likes to read, play board and card games with his friends and family, and watch movies. He is quite the movie connoisseur and sci-fi is his favorite genre.
