Veterinarians near Nokesville, VA

“I and my husband have been a client of Dr. Swanson for at least 30 years. My husband passed away in 2015 and I have lived alone with the 3 dachshund dogs we bought when they were 8 weeks old.

We began bringing our dachshund’s to you when your office was across from Jimmy Phillips. Remember the lady who bought the cat in she found on the side of the road. It was injured and very sick looking. You were sooooooooooooooo
Mad ? saying why do all these people bring these road animals in…”Who’s going to pay for the work I have to do”

One dog passed about 3 years ago due to kidney failure and I still enjoy the company of the 2 females.

They are about 12 years old and recently they became ill with a “coughing wheezing” sound and have trouble breathing. Overnight they turned from active happy dogs into barely eating or moving around.

Now on a very limited income I called Dr. Swanson and asked if he would do a health check on my
dogs but I could not afford to pay for it.

He refused and I understand that. He wants to be paid for the service he renders.

A 30 year client may have been offered a payment option from someone with a heart ❤️ .

I could not have been more disappointed.

I’ve always felt you had a cold heart ❤️ BUT NOW I KNOW!!!!!”

“Dr. Brown and her staff have been our Veterinary for over 15 years. We always receive the BEST care with the BEST service and advice. All the staff always know and talk to our pets making us always feel like one big family!”

“The staff provided exceptional assistance, addressing all inquiries with expertise. They were aware of my heightened apprehension regarding my baby boy Max undergoing anesthesia, given his age and heart condition. The most crucial outcome is that Max is now safely back home and recovering well. You provided exceptional care and my Max is back home with me.”

“Signal Hill has taken care of 4 of my pets now and always gives us the best care and service from their gotcha day to their goodbye day we have never been displeased. Unlike other places I’ve experienced in the past, every staff member is knowledgeable and friendly and caring. We made sure we started our new pup there the day after we got her for a wellness check and look forward to many years of them caring for her and our older dog they already know well. Thanks, Signal Hill ❤️”

“We've been taking our dog to Caring Hands Bristow for four years and they are wonderful. They are knowledgeable and thorough with both acute and chronic issues and always take great care of our Liberty.”

“Exceptional staff, warm and friendly to humans and animals alike. We've had dogs since 1986, and several vets over the years. Ohana is by leaps and bounds(pun intended!) the best one--the others don't even compare!”

“This was the first time coming to Community Critter Care, and I was really excited to take my dog here because of all the good reviews, but this Veterinary met all my expectations and more. Dr. Magerkorth is an amazing veterinarian and explained everything to me about my pet, and Taylor was also amazing with how she treated me and my dog, thank you so much, will definitely be coming back here as my regular veterinarian.”

“I have been going here for a couple years now and have been really happy with them. Communication is wonderful. The front desk staff are friendly and personable. It easy to make an appointment or reschedule if needed. Dr. Munzig has been my pups primary vet and has helped through dealing with his severe allergies. She is easy to talk to and non-judgmental. She seems to really care in her heart about all her furry patients. I will definitely keep going to her!”

“I’ve been taking my dog to Deepwood for over a decade and I absolutely would not go anywhere else. When you find a Vet this knowledgeable, fair, no nonsense and compassionate you have zero need to look elsewhere. I have full confidence in Dr Wanda Pool and her staff. She will give you peace of mind and a piece of her heart. She loves all the critters and creatures. The office is run efficiently and the techs show tender care. Take your pets to Deepwood and Sit, Stay and get the Treat of excellent care for your fur baby.”

“I have very strong feelings about Veterinarians, having worked for a very wonderful vet office. Dr. Martinez was exactly what I look for in a vet and was so grateful they were able to see my pet at short notice last week. We will be returning!”

“Pet centre animal hospital is the best vet I have used, they have been my regular vet for the past 5 years or so. No other vet that I have tried has shown the level of care, professionalism, and knowledge that they do. EVERY person I have dealt with at Pet centre animal hospital from the receptionists to the techs to the doctors has been nothing short of amazing!”

“I recently had to let my beloved shih tzu Bubba cross that rainbow bridge. The care and kindness expressed by Dr. Kelly went above and beyond and brought us peace during this most difficult time. The staff was also exceptional.”

“Just brought my cat home from surgery. The vets and other staff at Catlett and Compassion Animal Hospitals have my complete trust. I won't take my pets anywhere else.”

“This place is amazing. They are compassionate and understanding. We couldn't ask for better people. They try to explain everything and make sure you understand the recommended care plan.”

“My furkids had their first appointment at this clinic today, I followed Dr. Anne Williams here as she's been our vet for 20+ years. From filling out new client paperwork to sending over my old files to making an appointment (texting when their phone was down and online) to the interactions at the appointment, the staff and vet tech are all caring, calm, and helpful!! It's a better environment for us (me & my furkids) and I think for her too!

Our appointment was on-time and NOT rushed! The vet tech asked a lot of questions, was fine when for anything I wanted to discuss with Dr. Williams, stayed during the exam (I never had a tech stay before), and bonus, helped me cleaned a cat butt without a single complaint, stating over and over it's part of his job and he wants my furkid comfy (I have a long-hair cat no matter how drugged he is and how many chill sprays I use always poops in the car, fresh sample but it sticks to his furry butt).

As for Dr. Williams, we adore her. I don't drive 45+ minutes one-way with car-hating cats (and a dog!) for just anyone. She's so knowledgeable about a variety of dog/cat topics, always learning and growing as a vet, believes in modern and holistic medicine, and has always been honest with me. She doesn't do unnecessary tests, vaccines/meds, etc. and this clinic feels like they'll be fine with it (and they don't have fees for every little thing either, it's a bit nicer on the wallet!). She's amazing with my furkids and really cares about their well-being, she's a big part of their health and care!”

“I have been bringing my dog to see Dr. Kunze for his enlarged prostate. The treatment has been a success so far. I'm very impressed by Dr. Kunze and her knowledge and care. Kudos to the clinic staff, as everyone is friendly, and very helpful. I would recommend Companion Animal Clinic of Gainesville to everyone.”

“This is a great place for very care, and they have the highest quality food for your pet. I've been taking my dogs to see Carol since 2005. I prefer the care she provides over the standard vet offices that don't even get to know your pet. Great place and friendly staff!!”

“I love this practice. All of the vets are caring, knowledgable and very personable. They explain things in layman's terms so you understand what is going on with your pet. I wouldn't go anyplace else for our vet services unless referred to a specialist by one of the docs. They know the best places to send your animal to get speciality care. Their front desk is also super and very friendly. Their techs are the best and are also very caring of your animal. You can't miss with this practice. They are the best.”

“This is a very professional veterinary and Pet Care Center. We have used them for our fairly large dog. They are top drawer professionals. Who love animals little pricey? Perhaps, but they will make you feel confident.”

“I found this vet to be exceptional very thorough very friendly and she did whatever she could to help my cat and I was so appreciative this is the best place I've been to a vet in 30 years”

“My normal vet wasn't able to see us today for an emergency case of kennel cough. The receptionist was wonderful in accommodating same day and also calling over to our other vet to get records. Dr Morrow and her assistant were incredibly compassionate, and thorough. I highly recommend this office. We will be switching to Dr. Morrow moving forward as we were so pleased.”

“Great vet! My cat has been seen here for 4 years and I recommend this vets office to everyone!! They’ve been so kind, compassionate, flexible, and accommodating. They are also very informative and I TRUST them which is the biggest blessing.
They also have taken same day appointments when my cat has been sick.”

“Dr. Dove and his staff will take good care of you and your dog. He's the premiere dog obstetrician in Virginia, so if you're a breeder, he's your guy. But honestly, he's a goodhearted dog lover who will do what's best for your pup.”

“Today was my first time at a Banfield. I actually switched Vets, due to my old one tripling the price of insurance for ONE DOG ?. The team at the Manassas location provided excellent customer service, and made sure that my dogs and I felt at home. They were all very informative! I also spoke to Wanda over the phone before coming in, and she was AMAZING! Unfortunately, the wait time was pretty long. It was about 40 minutes before a veterinary assistant was able to come in the room to get us started. At my old vet, I was out the door within 30 minutes. In my opinion, that would probably be the only downside, but I understand things happen and it can get hectic sometimes.”

“Updated on 6/11/2024:
After receiving a response on this review, I emailed them my concerns & within a few days had a call back from this location to which they scheduled me to being Daisy in for her missing bordetella vaccine, the Docter was extremely nice & the appointment went smoothly. Any other visit Ive had with them has gone smoothly. I do appreciate that they listened to my concern & made sure that they made it right. Thank you so much to the team!

I have used Banfield for years. And we moved to Gainesville area about a year ago & they have always been good for the most part. I knew my puppy plan was expiring & I had not renewed because I fostered another pup for a year & had him on this plan, since he found a forever home a few months back, I continued paying until I knew it was expiring, called banfield to ask what to do in order for it not to renew & I did as I was told, then I had to make an appointment for my actual pup Daisy, and she is due for bordetella vaccine so I called WEEKS ahead of time, explained very specifically that I needed to get her in BEFORE the plan expired & they made my appointment for weeks out. That should’ve been my first red flag was that it took weeks to get her appointment scheduled. I come in today June 6th 2024 for her drop off appointment and I’m glad that I asked before I even left about her plan and the receptionist told me that the plan expired YESTERDAY. I explained to her that I specifically made this appointment and I wanted to be before her plan expired because I’m going through a moving situation right now where I just don’t have the out-of-pocket expense at the moment. She did ask the manager what they could do for me since it wasn’t my mistake, but all they were willing to do was waive the cost of visit & I would still have to pay out-of-pocket for the vaccines. This was not my mistake, I was off yesterday. I could’ve very well come in yesterday or even sooner, but I did what I was scheduled to do even after a specifically explaining that I needed to get this done before my plan expired. This is Completely unacceptable, as a manager of a Dog daycare myself, I am not Inexperienced when it comes to vaccines, There’s a reason I called ahead and planned ahead for this visit. My Financial situations is a little tough at the moment and that’s completely completely on me but again this is why A.) I pay for a plan to begin with B.) I planned ahead, I paid my entire plan over the course of 12 months & never missed a payment & I had the full intecion of using what I paid for. Which was the visit & vaccines, I was never late and even after explaining this to the person that scheduled my appointment, they scheduled me a day after my plan expired? That almost seems like it was on purpose. Was that person even listening to me? Did they just make an appointment to get me out of their way? Now my dog has an expired vaccine until I can figure out whether its worth it to go back to them or not. I love having the plan because it honestly alleviates a lot of financial burden throughout the year, especially when it comes to vaccines or just visits, but it seems unfair that I as a Customer who have made all payments year round, never had any issues have to go through this. Completely Unprofessional on behalf of the person who scheduled my appointment. I am not faulting the person I spoke to today because she was nothing but nice and I know she couldn’t do anything that her manager wouldn’t allow her to do. But it Seems unfair that I paid for a service & was not able to get full use out of it because of the negligence of one employee. Id give an update but I highly doubt there will be one.”
