“I frantically contacted Kentlands Veterinary Hospital when I needed urgent help with my dog. It was near closing and my own vet practice wouldn't stay late to see my dog. I called an emergency vet and they said there was an 8 hour wait. I called Kentlands vet and said I wasn't a client, but I desperately needed help. The doctor offered to stay late to see my dog even though I wasn't a client. She is clearly passionate about animals, placing their needs above her own. She was quickly able to diagnose the problem and literally saved me hours of waiting and hundreds of dollars at the emergency vet. I was so grateful for the excellent care and even more for the extreme kindness in our time of need. Can't say enough wonderful things about this place!”

“My dog recently injured her leg and everyone at Lake Forest Animal Hospital was so friendly, helping me to get her taken care of so she can walk again. She's a senior dog with Cushing's and they have been wonderful in helping us keep her regulated. Lake Forest was not the first vet we tried when we moved here, but they will be the last because there is no need to look elsewhere.”
“Everyone was so friendly and professional. I felt like they really cared about Josh and kept him as comfortable as possible throughout his exam. He wasn't stressed at all. Definitely our forever Vet!”
“I’m always pleased with the care, attention, and support given to my dogs and me every time we visit. I’m also very happy with the grooming service Mel provides at an affordable price.”
“We have taken our dog here for 12 years. Dr. Hollifield is very knowledgeable and caring. She and her staff take good care of all animals. We are thankful to have found such a good vet practice!”
“They may not be the cheapest place around, but the limited staff is the same staff that always sees your pup. So for someone like me that is at the vet at least 10 times a year they are great with her. They know her name, personality and now that they are letting owners back into the office with the pets I can truly see how much she loves them when she arrives.”
“Saying goodbye to our dog was one of the hardest things we’ve ever gone through. The team at this clinic treated us with so much kindness, patience, and compassion during such a painful moment.
Two weeks later, we received a handwritten sympathy card from the doctors. It honestly meant more to us than I can explain. In a time when we were grieving, that small but thoughtful gesture reminded us that we weren’t alone — and that our dog truly mattered to them too.
Thank you for caring not just for our pet, but for us as well. We will always be grateful for the love and humanity you showed our family”
“Dr. Corrigan and her staff are always kind, caring and very knowledgeable about my older cat's problems. They're always very accommodating when I need them.”
“I chose this clinic based on positive reviews. And It was the best choice, we had a wonderful experience at this clinic. Dr Reynolds is amazing! Thank you so much! Amazing staff with caring attitude to their clients.”
“We have had dogs our entire lives. This is the best practice we have ever used. Caring, knowledgeable, technically competent with m multiple disciplines. Friendly, pleasant and easy going. I love this practice for my pack !”
“I’ve been very happy with the service and care of my dog. It’s easy to get appointments the same day when my dog is sick . The doctor and office staff are courteous and take time to answer questions.”
“Very nice staff, very caring doctors and nurses. I appreciate their patience with us (parents) and with our loved pets <3. I also love the fact that I can use Cherry Financing if needed. Thanks for your great job!”
“We've been taking our 2 cats and 1 dog to Germantown for 5 years. They're amazing and easily the best veterinary clinic we've ever been to. We've recommended them to numerous friends, and will continue to do so every chance we get. Their vets and staff are knowledgeable and empathetic, they routinely make time for us whenever we've had an emergency, and their rates are absolutely reasonable.
Today we went through the process of putting our 17 year old dachshund to sleep. While in no way was that an experience I want to ever repeat, I cannot describe how wonderful everyone at Germantown was. I could go on and on about them, but the bottom line is that they care and are amazing at what they do, and my wife and I are just so glad they were there for us today just like they have been every day for the past half-decade.
If you're looking for a place to get care for your cat or dog, take them here. You won't regret it, and neither will your pet.”
“Neighborhood Veterinary Associates (NVA) has cared for my 6-year-old Boston Terrier since he was a puppy, and I can’t say enough good things about them. When he showed signs of an ear infection, I booked a next-day sick visit online with no hassle. They diagnosed it quickly and got him treated right away—he felt better fast. The team is kind, thorough, and never pushy. It’s obvious they genuinely know and care about their patients.”
“I was able to make an afterwork appointment. Dr. King and the vet techs did a good job examining and treating my dog. The fee was reasonable for the service provided. I will continue to use the Country Veterinarian Hospital and have referred friends there as well.”
“We've been using Dr. Skipton for many, many, years. He is an incredible vet and truly cares for the animals. I can't say enough great things about him.”
“Woodley Gardens is an amazing clinic. I started service with them about a month ago based on a referral from a colleague. I like everything about them and their approach to vet care. Will is part of the reception staff and is always a pleasure to talk to. Nurse Brianna and Doctor Storm were personable, caring, and extremely knowledgeable about my dog's skin and allergy issues. Dr. Storm was thorough in his explanations about possible causes and gave me a comprehensive plan to follow. He didn't rush any aspect of the visit and addressed all of my concerns. In just a couple of weeks I've seen significant improvement in my dog's condition. Based on my interactions with the staff and Dr. Storm, it is clear that they genuinely care about the well being of their clients. I found pricing to be reasonable and there was no push to sell extra services or medicines--the focus is simply on quality care. I am grateful to have found a vet home for my dog and highly recommend them.”
“All of the staff here are amazing! They truly care so much, and help with all concerns. Even when I am unable to get an appointment, they make sure to call me and help me through any issues I have. I highly recommend!”
“I can’t describe how amazing this vet practice is. They have been my vet for over 10 yrs. The vets have changed since I started with this practice but the staff at LSAH has always been the best. The office manager, the front desk staff, and the techs. All amazing. So much so, that I stayed because of them. And the recent addition of Dr Walston has made me a forever customer. One of my dogs was very reactive and it would have been easy to label him difficult and annoying. But Dr. Walston approached him with such calmness and understanding, and the staff treated us with such kindness to make sure he got the care he needed with as little stress as possible. I trust them wholeheartedly with my pets.”
“Overall, GAH has been absolutely incredible over the last decade I have been coming. Recently I had a sick kitty and they were able to get him in, treated and got him on his way to recovery. I could not be more thankful for them and everything they did!”
“Excellent service and phenomenal care. My dog had a routine dental and discovered that he would need several extractions so he was referred here to Dr. Taney. This place is top notch with excellent care, everyone is so kind and knowledgeable, and state of the art equipment is used. They called me every step of the way so I knew exactly what was happening with my dog and I knew he was in good hands. His procedure went smoothly and he needed less teeth extracted than originally thought, but he did need a filling on one of his canines! We were discharged by Dr. Garber who is also very kind - the discharge instructions are also very thorough and they called to check on him the next day. Overall great experience and highly recommend!”
“So glad I found Fox Chapel Animal Hospital! Dr. Cris and his team provided great care for my elderly cat and when it was time, gracefully and with so much care, assisted with her passing. Their patience and TLC is why they will be my vets for life. My friend who was with me also observed the level of care and attention and switched to Fox Chapel Animal Hospital too! Highly recommend.”
““I had a great experience with this clinic. My dog Toby had 14 teeth extracted and then a follow-up clinical evaluation. The staff was very kind and professional and explained everything clearly. I don’t speak English, and everyone helped me a lot, especially the receptionist and Dr. Ivanov Castellanos. They were exceptional. Toby is recovering well, and I felt very confident with the care he received. I highly recommend this clinic!””
“Great and friendly staff and doctor! I have been bringing my dog here since he was a puppy and they always provide top notch care and make sure to answer any questions we have.”
“I wanted to share this.
We recently had to put our dog Waffles to sleep, he was 16 years old and incurring heart failure.
Not that there’s ever “better timing” to lose your pet, but we had family vacation planned since six months prior and we were to leave the following day. While on vacation, I read on a grief forum about a man whom had to also put his fur baby to sleep due to heart failure as well, and that he got an ink blot of the paw print the day they said goodbye. I had never heard of this, and it made me more upset as I shared this with my husband that I really wish I had known this was something people do so we could have done the same. Well, upon arrival back home from vacation there was a letter that came in the mail from Damascus Vet Hospital. My husband took it inside to read, and as I was still unloading bags, he abruptly came and handed it to me to read. He didn’t want me to wait- I opened the letter, and a beautiful card.. on the front “with sympathy for your loss” with a photo of a heart and silhouette of a dog and cat… on the inside- I dropped my bags and immediately broke into tears. Feeling emotions of solemness, but utmost gratitude and happiness because, above a cursive writing of our fur baby’s name, “Waffles” was his ink blot paw print. I am forever grateful to have this, as it wasn’t something we could have thought of in the time of chaos and confusion of decision making to put our pet out of his suffering… Waffles paw print is kept in a special place. A gesture so small and perhaps insignificant to many, moved me so deeply and I couldn’t be more thankful.

“We adopted a kitten from the affiliated rescue organization at this vet. The adoption coordinator was amazing! She allowed us to spend time with all of the adoptable cats and kittens. We were there for several hours until deciding on the most compatible kitten for our family. We signed the paperwork and came back the following day to pick her up. This gave us time to prepare and buy the correct food and litter. The adoption fee included the required shots. We opted to have a chip for safety and the vet did that before we picked her up. Very easy process and we adore our new kitty Tofu!”
“I had an excellent experience at Holistic Veterinary Healing. The staff was very warm, welcoming and informative. Dr. Deb was fantastic. She spent a long time getting to know me and my dog. She answered all my questions and provided me with a plan to care for my dog that fits my budget. I highly recommend this practice. This was my 1st visit and I have already scheduled the appointment for my dog's annual checkup in January.”
“Dr. Megan Giebel is absolutely wonderful. Our pet has been with her since she was 8 weeks old and now she's 12 and has been brought through much over the years. Dr. Megan spotted a cancer that was successfully treated because of her early diagnosis.”
“We ve received continuing excellent care for our Boys over the years and we always feel the information we are provide is honest and truly with the best interest of our Dogs in mind.
Thanks Dr. Fitzpatrick and all the staff that have provided care!”
