“Brought our kitten here for his very first visit, and I’m already so comfortable with the doctor and staff! I’ll be bringing our slightly older kitty here from now on too! :)”
“Hollin Hall vet is a wonderful, friendly place to take our dog. The staff and vets love seeing him, they are very prompt & it never seems crowded with anxious pets. Very relaxed, calm vibe that we love. Highly recommend!”
“Dr. L. Gomez is thorough, knowledgeable, and compassionate. She patiently answered all of my zillion questions. I took my dog to Fort Hunt Animal Hospital after her limp continued to get worse. Dr. Gomez took her time explaining everything to me and kept me updated throughout the day while she sedated my dog to do tests. When I went to pick up my dog LaLa, Dr. Gomez reviewed all the x-rays and information from the exam and prepared a thorough discharge packet. I trust her with my dogs life and am confident that my dog is getting the best care.”
“They are very professional and kind every time I have gone in. Unfortunately, my cat my cat passed away but they were extremely fast in seeing him and very patient and kind when talking to me about what was going on with him. I would definitely recommend them and would definitely go back if we get another cat in the future. I couldn't thank Dr. Mosoriak and the staff for helping me with a tough decision.”
“I followed Dr Fanton here from her previous practice. She has watched over my senior dog for his last years and was always caring and understanding. She was never pushy about expensive tests, procedures, or medications and even gave me cheaper alternative options. Other vets felt like they saw my senior dog as a cash cow and would push for test after test draining my wallet. My dog Kirby lived a long life until 15 years old thanks to Dr Fanton. When I decide to get another dog, I will definitely take him/her to Kingsview with Dr Fanton.”
“When I called Theresa was so helpful and assured me she’d call me if there were any cancellations which she did! I really appreciated her as I really wanted to get my dog in that day. Dr. Embree is always wonderful. She listens, asks questions, shares her knowledge and is always so calm around my skittish girl!”
“Dr Rebecca Baumsteiger is amazing! She found an issue my baby Barack was having that I had no idea existed. She is professional, hard working and kept me updated continuously.”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I’ve been bringing my dogs to VCA Old Town for around 5 years, and I can’t say enough good things about the team here. From the front desk to the techs to the vets, everyone is incredibly kind and professional.
Edgar and Cheyenne (most recent interaction), along with Dr. Lacoste’s tech (I think her name is nicole), are phenomenal—gentle, calm, and attentive every single visit. We’ve seen both Dr. Madera and Dr. Lacoste, and they’ve both gone above and beyond in providing excellent care.
Everyone at the front desk staff is equally amazing. They keep things running smoothly and make you feel at ease from the moment you walk in. Becca and Avery in particular are always welcoming, warm and efficient, answering any questions I have no matter how silly.
One of my dogs has had a particularly tough year with infections and some more serious issues, and the team has supported us every step of the way. When she was attacked by another dog last year, VCA Old Town went out of their way to give us a private space to wait, away from the crowds/dogs, and that meant a lot to us.
My other dog is always relaxed when we come in—which says a lot—and I never feel anxious either. What I love most is how everyone treats the dogs with respect. They’re never overly excitable or loud; they maintain a calm, professional presence that really helps dogs feel safe.
I’m so grateful for this team that truly goes above and beyond. I trust them completely with my dogs’ care.”
“I boarded my dog there for 2 weeks and he seemed happy when I picked him up. They were responsive to my nervousness and needs about boarding him for the first time. They also sent me photos during his stay.”
“We have been coming to Elpaw for 3 years now because of their quality of care for my girls. The Front Desk staff have always been friendly and super helpful. I am able to request an appointment and usually get an email or call the very next day. Dr. Yungk has gone above and beyond, with having gotten us through multiple health issues for both dogs. She continues to really listen to our concerns each visit alongside showing such love to them.”

“A great crew that cares for both the animals they see and new "pet parents" that come in. A friendly and charming group all around, they treated my pets with kid gloves.”
“VCA Alexandria (Duke St) is the city authorized location to take wounded wildlife, and unfortunately, I have had to make a couple of visits there within the last month. The staff have been well prepared, very easy to communicate with and very helpful.”
“I have to medicate Gavin every time we go to vet. They always understand and all but once were able to accommodate us with female assistants and veterinarians. . Gavin was a Covid puppy and is afraid of strange men and children since”
“The staff at Del Ray Animal Hospital are so compassionate and professional. I never have to wait very long to check in. Dr Morrow is a true gem and extremely thorough. My senior dog has multiple health issues which all are improving with her comprehensive care! We definitely feel well cared for here!”
“I have always had a good experience here with my birds (budgies and a conure). They’ve done a great job with both checkups and treatment. We’ve been coming here for years and have no complaints. It’s really hard to find a good avian vet in the DC area, so I definitely recommend them.”
“I’ve had a great experience with Banfield Hospital. Anytime I need to call with a question, they always answer promptly and provide helpful information. Whenever I need to bring my dog in, scheduling has never been an issue—they’re flexible and accommodating.”
“I am always happy with the service I get at Banfield Potomac yard . They are very communicative and love my dog Pisco . He goes with them since a puppy. Starting with people at the desk and with Doctors and technicians in the back , Pisco always get the best attention.”
“Dr. Smith and all of the staff at Hometown Vet Clinic were just wonderful. They were warm and caring and were not rushed. They took great care of my cats and answered all of my questions. Thank you so much!”
