We couldn't be happier with the fine people at Liberty Falls. We adopted Roscoe from a rescue a litttle over ayear ago. We first took him to a vet in Arlington that my family had used for decades. It turned out that Roscoe was terrified of veterinarians. A neighbor suggested that they use Liberty Falls. They have an all-female staff and since Roscoe seems to get along with woman than men we gave them a try. Dr. Geldon is just amazing. Not only is she an incredible vet, she is also so kind and so willing to listen and give us advice as we navigate the worled that is a new shelter dog. Our first visit there she examined Roscoe and then we got him off the table. We had Roscoe on one side of the room and she sat down on the floor on the other side of the room and answered all of our questions as she slowly tossed treats across the room to Roscoe. She has helped us with extensive dental work that was needed and always returns our calls if we leave questions during the day with her staff. The staff also deserves a round of applause as well. Recomended highly! Rob, Anne and Roscoe read more

We recently adopted a new puppy from a pet rescue. We looked around for a veterinary clinic near to our home and Liberty Falls was highly recommended by our friends and neighbors. We were able to get an appointment soon which was good. The staff was also efficient in sending over new client forms, etc. They are located very conveniently on Falls Road and have plenty of parking available. For the appointment, we took our pet to the clinic and were met by a tech at the entrance. She took preliminary information for us and took the pet inside - not human visitors allowed at the moment. The doctor called us a few minutes later and gave us a detailed account of the visit. She also made recommendations for future care and vaccination schedules. She patiently answered all my questions - and I had a few! Our pet looked happy after his visit and we had a good experience sending him there. Definitely a good veterinary practice to consider if this location works for you. read more

Our dog Bisous had a wonderful experience with Dr. Laurie Fromberg. Bisous had a splenectomy to remove a tumor and the surgery and postoperative care went extremely well. Dr. Fromberg and her staff clearly care deeply about our dog just as much as we do and now our little old lady Bisous gets to come home to us so we can enjoy her for the next several years . Thank you Dr. Fromberg for being such a great doc! As someone who works with little creatures myself (pediatrician) I know talent when I see it. Liberty Falls vet clinic just made its best hiring decision by bringing on Dr. Fromberg read more

Not very pleased with this vet. They were wrong about my dogs eye and brought up putting him down on the first visit. A visit to an eye specialist who confirmed his eye was fully healed... I'm sure they must be better to their regular patients but this was our first visit and it will be our last. read more

Dr. Linda Banish misdiagnosed our cat Tikki with multiple problems she did not have, e.g., a serious heart problem and "most probably" cancer. Dr. Banish confidently claimed Tikki would likely die within 6-12 months if not treated. We spent a boat load of money at Liberty Falls as well as at another (emergency) vet hospital for diagnostics. As it turned out, changing Tikki's diet to a low sodium "y/d thyroid care" cat food did the trick almost immediately. Now, almost three (3) years later, Tikki is as healthy and happy as ever. Beware of diagnoses received at LF Vet Clinic. read more

Was a long term client of previous vet, who sold his practice and home there. Had an employment contract for many years. Became a personal friend. My dogs were a small account. Booked an appt, showed up, they discharged me as a client since moved a round, & working all over. They obviously have an interest in profit margins. read more

What a great place! The entire staff is both professional and competent. Our dog Camden has figured out a way to stay in trouble (open the cabinet and find a chocolate bar; climb the fence and rip off a dewclaw) but the team at Liberty Falls has been fantastic in taking care of her. The fact that they charge reasonable prices is a plus. The protocols that they are enforcing during the COVID epidemic are excellent. read more

she tried to overcharge me. my dog had eye removed. she stayed overnight as the vet said it be best.when my son picked her up vet said she had thrown up, so she gave me 15 doses of diarrhea meds which i ask why. she agreed it was a little too much and agreed to let me return it. the same ch thing happened with pills on first visit when she told is the eye had to come out. i called her about these horse size pills which my little shihtzus could not take. she agreed to take these back. i had to bring all these problems up,which were not necessary. i believe i was being cheated as my son didn't know many better. i am 84 years old and handicapped is the reason i couldn't take my self. she have me a lot of meds , of no use at cost of almost $350 plus operation of another $1200 for operation. the vet i believed tryed to over charge me. oh yes gave me meds and forgot to give me syringes to be able to give her the meds. they sent a employee over after they closed with them. she made me wait past the time meds was supposed to be taken to have employee bring me these necessary items. i don't thing she had my pet in her mine as she did money. mary dillard read more

Dr. Geldon and her team are top drawer. They immediately connect with your pet to make them feel safe and loved. During my dog Gigi's first visit to the clinic, Gigi started kissing Dr Geldon's face, as she was giving her a vaccine. That's how fabulous this magical vet office is. 5 stars! read more

We were pleased with the previous vet and also pleased with the vet that took over his practice Dr. Geldon. That is for a short time at least. She started out as a sweet vet and then turned into a nasty person. Her staff was so unprofessional and I was told by two staffers that left the practice that it was a cut throat environment. I had to walk on eggshells when talking to her staff as they never wanted to be bothered with questions. Dr. Geldon also almost killed my puppy by prescribing a double dose of a certain medication I was unfamiliar with and I did give one dose. If I hadn't checked it could have done some severe damage. Now for us to switch to another vet a year before my 14 year old passed you know it was pretty bad. I would never recommend this practice to anybody that owns any kind of animal. Toxic! read more

If you want SKY HIGH prices coupled with bad business practices, you have found your vet. Be careful! Make sure you always know what you are getting and what the conditions are. Read the fine print. And good luck. read more

An inexpensive AND knowledgeable Veterinarian in Potomac? Yes Virginia, there is a Santa Claus! The downsides are, it's a little tricky to find and you have a 1 in 5 chance of not getting in for an emergency appointment. I'll admit I was skeptical in the extreme. I have guinea pigs and having them seen by a vet qualified in exotics care is a financial near death experience (easily $300+). However, I had been referred by a friend who sang his and his staffs' praises and wooed me there with a song of low prices and quality care. After calling to make an emergency appointment for one of my guinea pig and hearing the dulcet tones "It's $40 for an exam" over the receiver, I began to believe. Trying to find the office was a bit of a challenge since it's in a residential neighborhood and on Dr. Weitzman's property, but in a separate building from his home. Eventually I did figure this out and though there isn't a lot of parking directly in front of this office, I managed to find a place. Dr. Chaplin is the vet in his practice who sees exotics and she's the vet who I first met. She thoroughly examined my pet's eye, explained the causes of the injury and how to treat it, gave us some ophthalmic antibiotic ointment and a treatment plan. She even demonstrated how to apply the ointment and fully described the rest of the treatments in detail. I was relieved and impressed. As I went to pay my bill, which was under $60 for the medications and the exam, I was a believer! I have since been back several times with other guinea pigs and my cat. I have seen Dr's Weitzman and Chaplin and I continue to be amazed at the quality and affordability of the care my pets receive here. The only issue I've had is twice out of the 10 times I've visited, I couldn't get in for an emergency appointment because both doctors were unavailable. I did have my pets seen elsewhere for those visits, but despite this, I will continue to give them my business because my pets receive great care and my wallet gets a rest. read more

We switched to Liberty Falls a few years ago after our previous vet retired. We switched well before COVID so I had the chance to be with my pets during multiple visits. I am extremely happy with the care my dog and cats receive at Liberty Falls. We have 1 dog and 3 cats so it's important to us to have a vet in whom we feel very confident. One of my cats needed bloodwork; the tech was exceptionally skillful at drawing blood. My pets are more relaxed at Liberty Falls then I've very seen them at the vet. read more

We got a new puppy in late summer of 2014 and we were devastated when we found out that our vet of 18 years planned to retire in 2015. Our puppy got an ear infection a few months ago so I took him to a place near our house. They took care of him, but the front office staff left me flat and the vet gave him a duplicate vaccine. I asked around and several people recommended Liberty Falls Veterinary Clinic. Before I could make a routine appointment to see Dr. Geldon, my dog got an infection from a laceration on his leg. I called Dr. Geldon's office on a Saturday morning at 9am and was seen at 10am. I could not believe that they made time for me without even knowing us and on a busy Saturday to boot! The front office staff/tech was extremely friendly and competent. Dr. Geldon was not only wonderful with Lucky, but she was great with my young daughter who is an aspiring veterinarian. Dr. Geldon got down on the floor to examine Lucky and let my daughter assist her in the examination. Dr. Geldon and her staff helped me in the following week to assess his health and healing process via phone. Now that he is better I plan to return to this practice for all of our veterinary care. I cannot thank them enough for their quick response, excellent care and friendliness. This is a great practice. Oh, they have easy, free parking and the place is spotless! read more

Very Unprofessional!! We brought our puppy here for a 1st exam with Dr. Geldon and it was a nightmare! Demonstrated Unprofessional behaviors: -Uncleanliness (vet assistant/tech was difficult about wiping down the exam table with ethanol when asked-she did it with attitude and great reluctance) -Dr. Geldon did not wash her hands before touching our puppy. -Dr. Geldon sat on the exam table when talking with us, then put the our puppy on the table without cleaning it off. -Our puppy's stool sample was taken and never put in another bag and labeled before testing, staff had to ask us if it was our puppy's sample!! Totally unacceptable and sloppy! -We were told that the office works on no news is good news for test results which is inadequate. I called the next day, late afternoon, to confirm nothing was wrong with the stool sample to find out our pup had giardia and we were not called because Dr. Geldon was out (though who knows if it was our puppy's stool tested with their sloppy sample labeling). -After deflecting pressure to medicate our puppy right away with the latest and greatest drug for something not serious enough for them to bother calling us for we were told that our puppy needed the medication per 'Dr.'s orders'. We said we would discuss it after researching the med when Dr. Geldon returned and were never contacted again-so much for caring about a patient! - Told us to use force on our puppy to get it to stop teething on us and then used force on our puppy!! - Decided to snuggle and bring other assistant to cuddle and fuss over our puppy without permission. -Tried to give our puppy random treats without permission. Would a family practice doctor treat someone's toddler this way? NO Would you randomly touch someone's toddler? NO Use force on someone's toddler? NO Offer random candy to someone's toddler? NO Then don't touch the puppy outside of professional work either! Puppies are NOT communal property! All in all we experience one unprofessional action after the next and will never be returning. More concerned with forcing their opinions than your pet's well being. read more

I had the unfortunate experience of having to put my dog down after 14.5 years in a rather sudden scenario. Dr Gelb and Dr. Banish were both very attentive and kind- the assistant even offered to drive me home after, as I was alone and very emotional. Of course it was an awful experience, but the staff made it as painless as could be. When we had been to Dr Weitzman previously, he was as very attentive as well- even calling on weekends to check in on my little guy! read more

I have a 10 week old English bulldog named Bronx. My sons teacher recommended we use him as Bronx's vet because he too own 2 English bulldogs and he has used him for years.. What a nice guy!!! that Dr. Weitzman. Informative, patient, funny wrapped up in one. The office was clean, cozy and the rest of the staff had the same bedside manner as Dr. Weitzman. Well, it sure is true that laughter and smile is infectious...their rates are reasonable. Im sure you can go elsewhere for less but, why would you? Growing up my grandma always said, "Quality not Quantity". read more

I'll have to echo the other reviewers that this place is great. We took our two French Bulldogs here for the first time over a few months ago, and we were truly satisfied with the service we received from Dr. Weitzman and his staff. After moving into the area, we were worried about finding a vet we were confident in taking care of our boys. Atlas Vet in DC did such a great job the last four years, and Liberty Falls matched the great service we received and more. Dr. Weitzman was both very knowledgeable and professional in his examination of our boys and in fielding our questions. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a new vet. read more

Spent thousands there on a misdiagnosis. It is dirty, filthy, and when you leave you feel like you have animal urine on you. I will never take our animals there and know several several people who have switched. read more

I have used Dr Weitzman and now Dr Geldon for years...with both of my dogs...sadly, we just had to put our dog to sleep...Dr Geldon , Coty and the entire staff were above and beyond...they are warm and compassionate, and provided the best care, as they always have ...I would highly recommend them to care for your pets.. They will take great care with your pet!! read more

We've been using Dr. Weitzman since we moved to the area nearly 10 years ago. We have a small-breed dog. Overall we've had a very positive experience with both Dr. Weitzman and his staff. Dr. Weitzman consistently comes across as a caring, gentle and confident vet. In addition to quality general wellness care, we'd had a very usual dermatological events occur with our pet and Dr. Weitzman went the extra mile to research the case and run lab test to determine the root-cause. His staff is always helpful, especially in emergencies where they do their best to fit you in. Vets aren't cheap anywhere you go, but we have found Dr. Weitzman's prices to be on the 'reasonable side', especially given the Potomac location. His offices and set up (connected to his residence) are a little dated, and records management is still manual. But if you look past that, and focus on the care and treatment provided, we don't think you'll find better, personalized care anywhere else. read more

Dr. Weitzman has been the "family" veterinarian for our dogs for around 40 years. I would never let another doctor look at my dogs, and when I have to take my dogs to the Animal Hospital, I always bring them to see Dr. Weitzman the next day. I don't trust another doctor's diagnoses. Dr. Weitzman has something that is lacking in other Veterinarians. He has common sense and respect for the dignity of the animal. I've had other Doctors suggest all sorts of very expensive tests and procedures, etc. to determine the problem, and Dr. Weitzman carefully examines my dog and says that they are unnecessary and will put the dog through unwarranted pain and suffering. He is far more reasonable that any of his local competitors, and I would never let any of them touch my dog. read more

I've been going here for over 20 years. Dr Weitzman and the other veterinarians are knowledge, friendly, and compassionate...they have a great supporting staff also and their prices, I think, are reasonable...highly recommend them! read more

Dr. Weitzman has been treating our "boy" (we do not use the "D" word in our home) for ten years. It would be an understatement to say that Dr. Weitzman is one wonderful vet! The office is clean, comfortable and perfect for a vet's office. The staff is friendly, kind and accommodating. I would recommend this team to all who love their pets as though they were their children. You cannot find a better group. Barbara GG of Potomac, MD read more

We spent time searching for a new vet for our 16 year old mini poodle after a bad experience at our previous vet's office. I didn't think the office itself was all that great, but Dr. Geldon more than made up for that. She has a "can do" attitude mixed in with a genuine love for pets. That came across immediately. Anyway our mini is deaf and mostly blind and has become a biter in this scary world. As a result, we have had a problem with the simplest tasks... giving pills, cleaning ears, grooming, etc. Dr. Geldon addressed all and our mini left with clean ears, hair out of her eyes, fresh anals (hey, it's a part of life), and new pills... one that she will actually chew because it is beef flavored. We left feeling very positive that we had found the right doctor to take care of our golden girl. Also, everyone was very friendly and we had the last appointment of the day. read more

He is an awesome vet. We take our French Bulldog to him and he is very knowledgeable about the breed. For any Frenchie owners out there, I would highly recommend Dr. Weitzman. read more

I've been going to Dr. Weitzman for about 15 years now and he's excellent. I drive out to Potomac from Chevy Chase to see him. I rescue older dogs so I need a vet quite often. When one of my dogs had a bad reaction to some medication and had to have IV fluid injected subcutaneously, he met me at his office on Saturday and Sunday to do the procedure and saved my dogs life. And the staff is equally as wonderful. And the waiting room and offices where the pets are seen have always been clean. I would highly recommend him and his prices are, I think, quite reasonable. read more

I have been going to Liberty Falls for over 20 years now and find both the vets and the staff helpful & compassionate. The new addition of Dr. Elise Geldon has only made the clinic better. I trust both Dr. Weitzman & Dr. Geldon totally with my Shih-poo Mushroom. The staff is ultra friendly and will try to help you in any way they can. The location is easy to get to and there is never a problem parking. Prices are basically competitive with most of the other vets in the area. If you are looking for a caring, informed & compassionate vet & staff.....try Liberty Falls......... read more

I love Liberty Falls Veterinary Clinic! I've been taking my dogs to Dr. Weitzman for years. I like that he tries the least expensive options first. And I finally met Dr. Geldon, and she is great! I recently had to put my dog down, and she was able to come to my house so that my dog was more comfortable. read more

I usually don't write a review but I want people to know that Dr. Geldon and Dr. Weitzman are amazing! They saved my dog's life. She had a small bowel obstruction and required emergency surgery and they operated on her and is taking great care of her. We were so worried about our dog but thank God she is ok. We are very lucky to have good vets around and nearby! read more

I met Dr Geldon for the first time August 4, 2016. She was delightful, informative, thorough and clear. She gave me options that were logical to our situation. She called after hours with lab results - twice. After years of service from just okay vets, she was a refreshing breath of fresh air. She is, hands down, my new vet. Thank you for everything, Dr. Geldon. read more

Liberty Falls Veterinary Clinic is a top notch place with a great staff. Dr. Geldon has been our Vet for 5 years now and she has always taken great care of our fur babies! I switched vets and found Dr. Geldon and will be a loyal client for many years to come. She is has always been spot on with any issues that our dogs have had and looks for alternative ways to help when ever possible. We still come to see Dr. Geldon for care of our dogs ... when we come to visit family unless there is an emergency. read more

Dr. Weitzman is an incredible vet, however, you must get all your surgery quotes IN WRITING!! Bills consistently return 2-3x higher than quoted, and if you don't have the original quote, upon which no doubt you made your decision, you are completely out of luck- and the billing department is not nice, so.... a big and rather tragic drawback to an otherwise stellar vet. I finally switched vets :-( read more

I would give this place 100 stars if I could. I have followed Dr. Geldon from her old practice in Olney to Liberty Falls - even when I moved. Regardless of whether we lived in Maryland, DC, or Virginia, Dr. Geldon is always worth the drive. She always takes such great care of our pup and is extremely thorough in her work. She has always been available for questions, both before and after visits, and has been extremely accommodating with fitting us in for unplanned visits. Although our dog is not a fan of the vet, she is always excited to see Dr. Geldon and her staff. There is no one else I trust more when it comes to my dog. You won't find a better vet! read more

Have only been going to Dr. Geldon for 10 months with a puppy, but have been extremely pleased. Not only is Dr Geldon wonderful, the office staff are very friendly and helpful. I came from another practice in Potomac that was very large and had an unfortunate experience with one of the Doctors.(I won't go into details) So when I first came to Liberty Falls I was elated with the warm, friendly vibe I got the moment I walked in the door. They have always been helpful and professional. read more

My four babies don't get stressed returning like they do at others. We drive 20-30 minutes to go to this vet while passing many on our way because they are honest, care, and treat you like family. You are not just an appointment they want check off the to do list. The kindness is noticable and appreciated especially when your furbabies dont feel well. Dr. Geldon is by far the best vet I've ever worked with (my favorite). Receptionists are great too. We will never "stray". :) read more

Dr. Weitzman, who has been my vet for years, referred me to his associate Dr Elise Geldon. My dog has a rare and very serious disease. Dr. Geldon has been simply amazing from diagnostics, research, through treatment she left absolutely no stone unturned. He is alive because of her diligence. I have never encountered a vet (and with 3 dogs I have been to many) who was a responsive as Dr. Geldon. She answered every call, email, and text and was incredibly patient in answering my questions and holding my hand. I'd recommend her to anyone in search of a smart, compassionate, and responsive vet. read more

I have been using Dr. Elise Geldon(the colleague of Dr. Weitzman) since we moved here to Maryland(4 years). We have had positive experiences with all of the staff in the office as well as Dr. Geldon every single time we have needed a visit. She is very caring and knowledgeable and I feel completely confident placing our very special pets in her care. She does a wonderful job and I am so lucky we found her! I recommend her to all of my friends looking for a great vet. read more

Great Vets! They really care and follow up with calls. Warm and kind people to pets and their owners.
