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!!!!!”

“Annabelle loves her visit to PWAH. We appreciate the friendly comforting smilefrom Dawn and the staff. Dr. Brown is professional and takes great care of our Doxie.”

“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.”

“Lovely and passionate staff and technicians. Took our kitty to the clinic for an emergency appointment. They were willing to work with our budget and to walk us through the ordeal of emergency surgery. They also provided us a carrier for free since we were not expecting to have to need one so soon. We adopted our kitty only two days ago and she needed emergency care. I've taken my turtles to the clinic in the past, and haven't been disappointed. Not sure if they still see reptiles, since the doctor had to be scheduled two weeks in advance, but they are caring enough to guide me to other exotic vets and to call me for a follow-up.”

“The staff were extremely kind and knowledgeable, providing excellent explanations on the post op care for our puppy, as well as immediate and clear communication about our dog's status after his surgery. All instructions provided were easy to understand and follow. The cherry on top is how affordable Anicira was, making it an easy choice where to get our dog neutered and where to bring other pets for future surgical needs. We would highly recommend Anicira to anyone in need of care for their pets.”

“Dr. Martinez was very kind and patient answering all of my questions. He did not try to sell me anything extra and was easy to talk to. Nice office. I highly recommend it.”

“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.”

“On one of the hardest days of my life so far, I was met with genuine compassion and support from the staff here. Although this was my first time visiting the practice, they made us feel like family and were so gentle with us as we had to put down our Blake ❤️. I regret that I cannot recall the names of the vet & techs that helped us, but I thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you did for us and our baby boy. I know where we are taking the rest of our babies.?After looking at the staff on the website, I know it was Dr. Drape and the tech was Hope. Thank you both so much. ❤️”

“Not only did they take us on an emergency basis (not even being patients of the practice) but they stayed late to help treat our dog. They made what was a stressful event into a positive experience from start to finish and we can not thank them enough! Dr. Munzing and Chris were fantastic with our normally vet-nervous dog! Thank you so much for taking care of us!”

“Community Critter Care (Dr. John Magerkorth) is the best veterinary practice I’ve ever worked with. The entire staff is so caring and patient with my pets. Dr. John goes above and beyond to explain everything (and he has a great sense of humor.) You can really tell that they are in veterinary care because they truly love all animals. They have been wonderful with both my dog and cat.”

“I have always had pets, but Deepwood has the best and most caring team I have ever seen at any veterinary clinic. We have been with them for over 15 years and could not imagine going anywhere else. If you have pets, please know you can trust the folks at Deepwood. These are good people.”

“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”

“Dr. Medici is amazing! She truly seems to care for the animals and is informative and compassionate towards the owners! She has cared for all of my dogs, and my parent's dogs. Whether a simple preventative exam or a more serious illness, Dr. Medici is thorough and thoughtful. The team at Ohana is also friendly, kind and professional.”

“We bring all our fur babies here. We have several. We have Guinea pigs, a cat, and a dog. The piggies are regularly visited by the techs who handle them with care. We had an unfortunate incident with one of our piggies last summer and he passed away, but the team did everything they could to take care of him. They feel and love the pets like they are their own. The love for animals is evident in the interactions. They are always willing to help explain needed services and help me move something if I need to, due to finances, and they are super gentle. That’s important. All of our animals have received regular care that is excellent. We have been customers for almost 4 years, and I’m so grateful we got his clinic. I would recommend them to anyone!”

“PetCentre is a fine vet hospital and an amazing play care. Clean and safe with a huge outdoor space. My dog LOVES to go and it is a godsend. The staff is attentive and careful.”

“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.”

“We spent 23 years at Old Bridge Vet and over the years we have watched them decline. Finally, enough was enough and it was time for a change. We had friends who recommended you to us and yesterday was a breath of fresh air and a great change! Thank you and look forward to many years with you!”

“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.”

“My dog has food allergies she went I'm for a sick visit staff let me know price ahead of time doctor was knowledgeable answered my questions before I could remember them They were great with my Samantha. I definitely recommend them .”

“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.”

“Morganna definitely has my stamp of approval. Reasonably priced, excellent veterinary care. Dr. Fuller is smart, gentle and kind with my pets and unlike most vets, actually seems to like animals.”

“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.”

“Caring Hands Hospital certainly lived up to their name. I brought my female miniature schnauzer, Misty, into their facility tonight. Misty was listless, weak and didn't want to go for walks during this past week. I thought it was arthritis, after all she is, was 13.5 years old, about 95 in our years. The doctor suggest diagnostics of blood and an x-ray. I couldn't afford both, so we opted for an x-ray. The x-ray showed advanced liver cancer. Misty never whimpered or yelped; she never told me she was in pain. I had to give her up to doggie heaven tonight. The Caring Hands doctor and her team were so caring and gentle with Misty and me. They had a room set aside for me to spend our last minutes together. They gave her a shot to lessen her pain. The room had a poem about dogs, a couch, and water therapy flowing. They provided options on how Misty's remains were to be handled and really made this unexpected ordeal relativity painless for both of us. I highly recommend this place. I will take my male miniature schnauzer to them from now on.”
