Coming back to update because the folks here are really just so wonderful. Since our early visits…read moremy pup ended up needing five surgeries, four of which were done here (one required a specialist). Not only were the staff fantastic in vet care, they also helped me walk through options, get set up with the specialist, and provide great care whenever we are in town. We're sad to lose them when we move away from VA, but so appreciative and grateful - they even gave great tips on what to look out for in our new area! Cannot recommend their services enough, Sunday and I are beyond grateful for what they do.

My husband and I have been clients of Old Dominion Animal Hospital located at 811 Preston Avenue,…read moreCharlottesville, Virginia for over 2 decades. Over the last 20 plus years we have had dozens of our family pets, including rescues, vetted at Old Dominion Animal Hospital. During this span of time, we became well acquainted with Dr. Alison Kramer, Dr. Chuck Wood, Dr. Garrett Wood and Meredith West and their staff. The front desk staff are great! They have always been "here/there" assisting with our concerns/needs and responsibly solving our issues. We have a high regard for Dr. Garrett Wood and his very capable staff and will always recommend Old Dominion Animal Hospital to others.

Dr. Anderson is by far the best veterinarian who has taken care of our dogs-and we have used…read moreseveral vets in the Charlottesville area. He spends a significant amount of time with us during each visit and has been available via text and phone calls after hours and even during the weekend. He has taken time to get to know us and our dogs which is more than I can say for the other vets in our area. I highly recommend dr Anderson and his practice.

We went in for a first visit on a busy Friday afternoon, and though the wait was long, it was…read moretotally worth it. Everyone was so nice and kind, and they went above and beyond to make sure that my pet was calm and well taken care of while waiting. I feel confident about the way the vet approached my pet's needs, and I left feeling so glad that we had found such a wonderful new vet! Highly recommended!

It ends up that our girl has a very rare disease that I truly doubt her "old" vet would have been able to figure out in time to save her. That was almost a year and a half ago. She is doing great and her disease is under control due to the care she has gotten at Willow River. The staff is very helpful, and the doctor warm and caring. What more can you ask for?

A friend recommended Autumn Trails as my veterinary service and specifically spoke very highly of Dr. Young. From the moment I arrived, the entire staff was friendly, professional, and welcoming. Dr. Young was fantastic! With the medication he administered, my cat Zac's eyes were noticeably better by that same evening. Dr. Young is not only skilled but also such a kind and witty individual. I wish I could remember the technician's name--she was so caring, gentle, and sweet with Zac. I also really appreciate that this office is open 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. That's a huge plus for me since, somehow, my pets always seem to need care on weekends! I highly recommend Autumn Trails. I was extremely impressed with the entire experience!

When my big boy hated going to the vet, she was able to give me resources and tools so that he could go and not feel so agitated. I've had a couple different vets there as well and they've all been wonderful. The vet tech crew has impeccable bedside manner. They are all very kind and welcoming! Even when they're busy, they make the time to ask after how you're doing and how your pets are doing. I would highly recommend using Georgetown if you like quality care and affordable pricing for your fur babies!

She explained all vaccines to me for my puppy and we talked about heartworm and flea and tick pills. The staff that came in when giving my puppy vaccines were kind and gentle with him.

My fiancé and I recently moved to Charlottesville from the west coast. We would take our dogs to…read morethe VCA office over there and wanted to do the same here. I am very pleased to say that we get the same great treatment with this team. Dr. Cain is amazing with both of our dogs, Ruka and Chico. I love how friendly and caring the assistants and technicians are with our dogs. Ashley is very friendly, especially when it comes to our dogs. Staesha is also friendly and caring! Makes us happy when she pops in to say hi to our dog Ruka. He's a Ridgeback, which she shared she grew up with :) Cherish always welcomes our dogs and makes their tails wag! One thing we hate is when we feel rushed with our appointments, and Dr. Cain has never made us feel that way. He always explains things thoroughly and never makes us feel like any questions we ask are not good ones. Our little dog recently had oral surgery with dental extractions and we were very worried. Dr. Cain and his team assured us everything would be alright and kept us updated throughout the process. Our dogs love going to the vet now because of their amazing treatment, but it also could be because of the treats they spoil them with. Their customer service is great and am always able to schedule an appointment with no problem, even same day appointments. I either always speak to Jessie or Shane, they are always able to squeeze us in, especially for their nail trimming appointments! Their kindness and overall expertise is the reason why we always recommend VCA Albemarle to our friends.

To go over to Greenbrier Emergency Veterinarian. No warning about how expense Greenbrier would be. The cat got good care at Greenbrier but was not prepared for how expense it would be. Payment needed to be made in advance before any care was given. Had to run home and get another CC that I don't normally carry with be. The practice is open late Friday - Monday 7:30 AM. Had to pick the cat up Monday morning doing a snow storm still with catheter sticking out his rear. Then take him to properly only vet open doing the snow storm. They keep him while I waited half a day in the lobby. Was told best to keep the catheter in for 48 hours. Cost at Greenbrier $2,900 and another $350 at Meadow Creek. I ask them if I came to them first what the charge would be for the same procedure. Was told $700. At Greenbrier I was also told that my cat may need to go next store to the specially surgical veterinarians for a future procedure . That they were the only ones that did that procedure in our area. Cost would be about $5,000. At Meadow Creek they told me that they could do the same procedure and cost would be about $2,000. They put the cat on a special diet and medicine so hopeful he will not need to have it done. Can not say enough nice thinks about Mesdow Creek and staff. I expect that they will be my new veterinarian. Finale thought my father was a veterinarian and I use to help him out at his practice. I know a few things about the business.

From our first phone call onward, the staff communicated thoughtfully and consistently--keeping me informed at every step, explaining options, and providing the facts I needed to make the right decisions. Being separated from one of my dogs for several days in the hospital was difficult; their frequent updates and reassurances meant the world to me. Our communications with the entire team, from the front desk through the surgeons, cardiologist, and oncologist, were consistently clear, compassionate, and genuinely helpful. Expectations were managed with transparent information at every turn. Through the tense weeks that followed, and ultimately when we received the all-clear, the team proved exemplary in every way. Their professionalism, kindness, and steady support were deeply appreciated.

That level of care and reassurance meant so much to me. It's clear that they genuinely love animals and truly care about the health and well-being of every pet they treat. I highly recommend them!
