Veterinarians near Forestville

“Amazing! Dr. Diarra is a subject matter expert in the care of animals. He took my dog within the first 10 minutes of being there, assessed her, gave her a shot to relive her itching and explained everything step by step. He was clear on all the meds needed and I didn't mind paying the price as I received wonderful service for my dog Nala. Bring your dog here for personal service. They are wonderful here and I really appreciated their staff helping me get her cone on her head lol!“

“I highly recommend. My puppy was handled with care. I was also handled with care with the necessary knowledge to properly car for my goldendoodle.“

“My favorite thing is the office knows my Buddy. I love how attentive to his needs they are. Clean, nice smelling environment. The exam rooms are always clean. Would recommend highly! ?“

“Dr T office is the best there is. The place is not great in emailing back or calling back, but they are very helpful once you get them on the phone and they always provide very quick care and my super reactive dog feels safe and sound with them.“

“I’ve been taking my puppy here since he came home with me- and I’ve had nothing but great experiences from regular check ups, more emergent issues, to his neuter! Every doctor I’ve seen has been phenomenal and patient, and follow up is always quick and easy. I’m happy to keep bringing my dog here and would recommend to others as well!“

“I had a fantastic experience at Union Veterinary Clinic today, Monday, 10/7/2024. Over the weekend, my dog had a minor nail injury that wasn’t healing as expected. I called the clinic first thing in the morning, and despite it being a busy Monday, the email receptionist was incredibly empathetic and arranged to see us within an hour!

When we arrived, the staff was welcoming and efficient. We were checked in quickly, and shortly after, Dr. Slotje came in to examine my dog. She was amazing—gentle, patient, and had an immediate connection with my dog. He’s never nervous with strangers, and he warmed up to her instantly. Dr. Slotje carefully explained the situation with his nail and swollen paw and recommended a treatment plan. She also suggested doing a full nail trim while we were there, which was much appreciated, especially since he's reluctant when it comes to nail trims.

Erin, the vet assistant, came in next and did a great job keeping my 95-pound boxer calm with treats and playful distractions. Then Carlos joined in to assist with the nail trimming, holding my dog with care while Dr. Slotje and Erin worked together. My dog may not enjoy nail trims at home, but the team handled everything with ease and professionalism.

I’ve been bringing my dogs to Union Vet for over 15 years, and their level of care and compassion is always top-notch. I’m so thankful they fit us in on such short notice today. Their exceptional service and dedication are what keep me coming back. Kudos to the entire team—you guys rock! ?

Highly recommend Union Vet for any pet care needs!“

“First visit with very well. The facility is clean, the staff is pleasant and professional. Highly recommend.“

“We have been going to Lynn Animal Hospital for over a decade. They provide excellent care and have wonderful staff. We particularly appreciate Dr. Carmen. He has gone out of his way to help us when we needed immediate treatment.“

“Great, modern vet clinic where the staff truly loves pets like their own. Will recommend to anyone!“

“We’ve been bringing Lance to District Vet since we adopted him through City Dogs Rescue. He was heartworm positive at the time so we were “frequent flyers” for a while. We have been nothing but thrilled with everyone at the centers. They are attentive, responsive, and caring. We don’t mind coming from Alexandria because it’s with it! Thanks for all your care!“

“Very responsive staff, caring doctor, clean and efficient environment. I trust them with my pups' lives, so I think that deserves 5 stars.“

“The Dr's and staff are very welcoming and supportive during what feels like the worst times. Snoopy actually likes his visits whether good or bad.“

“Customer service was great! My vet was very nice and knowledgeable his assistant was great also I had a little wait but all worthwhile. My cat Miracle is doing fine I have a new vet now!“

“Took our new cats in for checkup and standard vaccines. Staff was kind, patient, and gentle with them. Pretty efficient at getting in and out as well. Recommend!“

“There is no other vet in DC I would trust to care for our dear, sweet, elderly basset house. We've gone to Union Vet Clinic for the last 7 years, since moving to DC. The entire staff is always so wonderful and Dr. Gross has been our trusted vet the entire time, but if ever Dr. Gross is out, we have always received wonderful care from the other Doctors on staff. I must say, sometimes it is very stressful coming in because of our dog's advanced age and not knowing what is wrong with her. But seeing the wonderful front desk staff at the clinic always makes it easier. Rebecca is always so helpful on the phone and Nesha is so sweet and always asks how our sweet girl is doing, even when I am just there solo to pick up medication. Bryce is so amazing and empathetic whenever we come in with an issue, I can tell he truly cares and he has also stayed late to help me pick up medicine. He constantly goes above and beyond to help us. And Christian the vet tech is always so tender with our sweet old girl! Union Vet Clinic is truly a family, they are incredibly skilled and compassionate and I'd recommend them to anyone he needs expert care for their furry best friends!“

“The vet was incredibly professional and even more incredibly sweet. She unfortunately had to deliver bad news about our little guy, and honestly was just as sad as we were. It felt like we were getting the news from a member of the family. The entire staff was helpful and welcoming. Neither us, or our dog have ever felt so at ease at a veterinarian's office.“

“It was our first visit here. Our dog's back legs suddenly gave out. They triaged him immediately upon arrival but then there was a 6-8hr wait to see the doctor .Yikes. We stayed and made the best of the situation. They gave him meds to keep him comfortable. I sent my son to the store to get a crate as our dog would not endure sitting there for several hours in my lap. Finally got in with the doctor and was given our options on how to take care of our dog. Over all a good experience, just didn't like how long it took“

“Will they always be able to fit you in last minute? No. But you will get unbelievable care for your pets here, with so much compassion and love from everyone (receptionist/office manager, vet techs, and vets-- all softies!). Really really reasonable pricing with no upselling. Dr Kirkendall is my favorite vet of all time, and she has returned my calls at all hours because she CARES about her "babies."“

“i wish i can give more than 5 stars. i recently brought my little dieselin in for his first check up since we brought him home. the staff was outstanding from the time i walked in to the time i walked out after my appointment.“

“Best Vet hospital. Extremely friendly and attentive staff. Dr. Boyce, Dr. Johnson and their team are attentive, knowledgeable and understanding. Overall, they are exceptional. I highly recommend them for all your pets needs/care.“

“I had a great experience during my visit with my pet. Dr. Tibbs was very knowledgeable and answered my thousands of questions. My cat was difficult during the visit, but Dr. Tibbs and Brandon were able to handle her. Brandon was very comforting to my cat because she was very afraid. Michelle who was at the front desk was very friendly and also answered all question asked. Overall, it was a great visit with a knowledgeable and friendly staff.“

“Everyone here is always so wonderful. They are kind and patient even when I need to take the last hour appointments due to my work schedule. Special shout out to Kiana and Skye for being lovely receptionists and to Lisa Nicole for being so wonderful taking care of my million questions!“

“Have taken all of my pets here for my whole life and quality of care has been fantastic the whole time.“

“Dr. Carey has been unfailingly kind and skilled in her treatment of my fur friends over the years. I can't thank her enough.“

“I called ahead of time to let them know my dog was wobbling back and forth. I was so scared as she never had anything like this happen to her. This was at four in the afternoon. They were quick and kind caring for my fur baby and me since I was a bit emotional from worrying. I am thankful for their swift care for her. She's home with us resting and the doctor asked us to come back first thing in the morning for some more fluids. And finally to receive the results of her bloodwork.“
