A very long time ago, I went to District Vet for a quick need…read more My dog had a tick and because I tend to get squeamish, they were happy help me and my dog out with a quick appointment for tick removal. Since I had a primary vet, there was no need for me to return on a regular basis but they left a good impression. Now, I have an elderly dog with a terminal condition and needed a hospital to visit for a non-critical emergency need. I had taken him to another hospital nearby the week prior, and they suggested I make the decision to put him down over the weekend despite the fact that he's eating, drinking, playing and sleeping as normal. They thought his nasal tumor growth had progressed enough to impact his quality of life. What they didn't catch was that his new, swelling over his eye was actually a huge abscess that then erupted two days after getting an injectable antibiotic. Quite frankly, it was disgusting and caught me way off guard but it also became immediately clear that once ruptured my dog's eye visibility resumed (despite a very messy process to recognize that.) To ensure that there wasn't any additional care needed for the abscess site, I set up an appointment here because I refused to go back to the other hospital. Luckily, from the moment I arrived I picked up on good vibes. The vet tech that I met with first had done a great job reviewing all of the notes and health history files I had sent over prior to the appointment so I pretty much only had to just confirmed the accuracy, Dr. Thomas Landes then came in and he was just wonderful. He was friendly and asked thoughtful questions to better understand the current state of affairs. I was appreciative how communicative he was throughout my dog's exam (commenting positively on things like my dog's strong heartbeat) and they proposed a game plan for next steps. They took him back, further took care of the abscess and gave me some instruction on how to manage the care at home. Honestly, it was just so refreshing to have a positive but realistic doctor that had a great understanding on my dog's life stage and was helpful in ensuring that my dog received care as well as maintains a high quality of life as long as possible. Grateful to have DIstrict Vet nearby should any other non-emergency needs come up in this late stage of my dog's life.

I've finally officially have given up on this vet and his staff. I moved to DC about 2 years ago…read moreand was looking for a new vet. I wanted a place that was more of a locally-owned office, hoping it would result in more personalized care and attention. That has been the complete opposite of what I've experienced of this terrible operation. This is an office run by a father and son vet. Our first visit was with Dr. Jerrold Boone (the son) and my partner and I were slightly confused by his evaluation. During our first visit, he went off (without us prompting) on how he was not responsible for the death of a dog from nearby Life of Riley (a pet hotel, which is known for several dog deaths...Google it!). Apparently, they bring the dogs to this vet. Dr. Boone insisted he didn't kill any of them. Okay, we didn't think that. But maybe we should now? He also has incorrectly written up the dog's prescriptions, which is incredibly concerning as our dog has a number of health problems and needs his medication and accurate dosage. The next visit, we saw his father, Dr. James Boone. We surely thought he must be better. But in fact, he was even worse. Our dog had a growth on its body and we were wondering what it could be. He said it could be cancer. Or it might not be. It could be anything. Well, we were certainly glad we made that visit. He also got weirdly transfixed on a comment my partner made about the dog occasionally having an accident in the house, which then took up the majority of our visit. The final straw is the way we felt treated by the front desk. They often would pick up, then immediately put us on hold. They of course were never friendly, and sometimes would hang up before we could even ask them anything. On a recent call, I asked for the prescription to be refilled for my dog for a medication that was vital for his survival. I called it in that morning, and when I called back, they INSISTED that they called it in. I called my pharmacy, and they never got a call. I had to call the vet back again, and learned the reason it couldn't get filled was that the hospital tried to give a different pill size dosage. It's a discrepancy but they should have called me back. They knew this medication was vital and now it was the end of the day. The vet had to re-issue the prescription but by this point, my pharmacy was closed so I had to send it to the nearby CVS (not ideal, but whatever). I gave them the exact address, and went to the CVS pharmacy...waited in that line (we all know!) and when I got to the front, they actually didn't have the prescription. Where was it? At another CVS pharmacy over 5 miles away. I don't have a car in DC so I then had to get an Uber, just so I could get my dog's medication. This incompetency runs SO deep here. You've been warned. And I've now switched to another vet that is nowhere near me but was referred by another doctor. Here's hoping they are an improvement. Honestly, they couldn't be much worse.

His issue was not resolved and he came back with a broken back. I was told that they were going to take great care of my fur baby. THAT WAS LIE! I took him for an emergency visit because he was straining to pee, had blood in his urine, and not eating. THEY DO NOT ALLOW YOU TO BE WITH YOUR PET DURING THE VISIT. YOUR PET IS TAKEN IN THE BACK WHERE YOU CANT SEE WHATS GOING ON. They admitted my dog for treatment and when I picked him up he was sedated on pain medication (something that wasn't discussed prior to giving him the medication). When he woke up from the medication at home, he screamed in pain, I took him outside to use the bathroom that night, he immediately fell over, and could no longer walk! I called the vet the next morning and they told me that he was fine at the appointment. I knew something was wrong. I repeated asked did anything happen during his appointment and I was assured everything was alright. My baby was in extreme pain, his neck was stiff as if he has had a stroke. I called multiple time and finally spoke with Dr. Boyce, she told me to bring my dog in for more testing because he may have a tick-borne disease. I knew that wasn't right, he is on monthly preventative medication. They just wanted my money for useless testing. I called again and the vet finally told me that they had ran blood work on him and put him in the cage and when they removed him from the cage he was screaming anytime someone would touch him so they gave him pain medication. I want to know how much force they used when trying to restrict him for blood work, I want to know why this wasn't originally told to me when I ask what happened at his appointment instead of being pushed to pay for useless testing, I want to know why they didn't send him home with pain medication knowing that he was in extreme pain. On top of that, the reason for his visit wasn't resolved. I WILL NEVER RETURN HERE. They injured my dogs back during his visit and failed to tell me what happened, I had to pry the information out of them. The recovery from this visit has cost me SO MUCH MONEY! I had to put my dog in a wheelchair and re-teach him how to walk. I have been spending $100 a week in acupuncture visits to fix his injured back for almost a year and we are still going through treatments! I now take my pet to Animal Center Watkins Park. At Watkins park, they found out that my dog had bladder stones (reason for blood in urine) and they recommended a new diet for his gastrointestinal issues. They also allow you to be in the same room during the visit and they recommended him to the neurologist that is fixing his back. APAW does not care about your pet and will injure your pet just to make a buck, BEWARE!

After investigating all my dog walking options, I decided to stay with the Brookland outlet of Saving Grace because I had such a good experience with my former location, they came highly recommended by some friends in the new 'hood, and the owners are sons of a former teacher of my children. Basically, I'm loyal and it's all about relationships. I have not been disappointed! Patrick and Adam have been great with my 2 dogs who have different needs. One is an active rescue mutt who loves a good long walk, and the other is an English Bulldog 1+ yr old puppy with lots of energy but not a lot of walking stamina who just recently had ACL and meniscus surgery! Saving Grace Brookland has been responsive, accommodating, flexible, and helpful in adjusting to our various needs over the past 9 months since we started with them. They are responsive to emails, and leave a daily update about their visit in a notebook at my house. Overall great, can't say enough nice things! Glad they are in the neighborhood for my doggos!
