What do pet parents says?
Here to piggyback off of my boyfriends review for our beloved furbaby, Elliot. Elliot's cancer diagnosis was the worst news of my life. To say I was... riddled with fear, confusion, hurt, anger, all of the worst emotions imaginable, is an understatement. Reece and I spent hours upon hours sorting through various hospitals to take on our Elliot's case, knowing we were placing his life in their hands and praying they would treat him like their own. We needed a vet that would respect our approach to keeping him happy and healthy holistically first, and only providing the best care if we decided on surgery. I was unable to make the appointment but I made one rule clear: at this appointment, if any staff member were to make Reece, Elliot, his case or our concerns feel like a transaction or inconvenience, they both were to leave and we would keep searching for care until we found the best fit. We were not wasting time on any place or people who instilled anything in us other than compassion, patience, and trust. I spent those couple hours that they were gone scared and anxious, not knowing what was to come next.Reece's text about how the appointment went dissipated nearly all of my worries and he came home with absolutely glowing reviews about everyone he encountered from Mindy and Anastasia at the front desk, to Anthony the tech (who approached our reactive boy with confidence and trust), and Dr. Hassel, who took the time to review my lengthy sheets of concerns, questions, and even reviewed a detailed diet change I laid out for Elliot. All of this to say thank you. I am relieved to know we found humans for our angel and his diagnosis that we can trust. This has been an extremely terrifying time for us, but Dr. Hassle's reassurance that Elliot will do great has been a massive ease. Thank you for treating our boy with love, compassion, and care. There is nothing we wouldn't do for him and would not place him in the care of a facility that we wouldn't trust to do the same.read more
After our dog, Elliot, was diagnosed with a Mast Cell Tumour, my girlfriend and I were really worried and looked up lots of different vets by... reviews. I am so glad we (finally) decided on District Brookland. After what was a worrying few days waiting for the appointment, to be greeted at the door by Anastasia and Mindy with a smile, we instantly felt welcome. They had a room already prepared for us despite being 30 mins early. Anthony, the tech, was also fantastic and was really confident with our pitbull, despite knowing he can be reactive. This made life so much easier as our dog was then calm, despite the situation. The cherry on the already great cake was Dr Hassell, again great with our dog and took every one of my 101 questions in his stride. He is a highly intelligent, patient and capable vet (and therapist after calming all my nerves!), who I have full faith in when it comes to the upcoming surgery. I just want to thank all of the team for turning what was a horrible few days into a much more tolerable situation for us. Thank you from us and our Stink!read more
We started taking our cat, Bling, to District Vet when we moved to Brookland about two years ago and every time we go, we are met with kindness,... generosity of time and resources, and seemingly endless understanding by all the staff and doctors here. Dr. Makhijani especially is so selfless and compassionate. When it was time to say goodbye to Bling, Dr. Makhijani was honest and clear in her assessment and helped us through every step of the process. We were so blessed to have her there not just as a doctor, but also as a warm and comforting presence.When we're ready to welcome another kitty into our house, we have no question about who we'll trust with their care. Thank you, District Vet.read more

My cat was doing very poorly. My regular vet was unavailable. I called District Vet (had read wonderful reviews) for an appointment. Even though it... was very last minute they were able to accommodate my cat at the Navy Yard location the next day. My appointment was with Dr Lee and she was awesome. Very professional, very knowledgeable, very thorough. All the news was not good I was relieved to have the information. The tech, front desk staff, everyone I encountered were all great. I highly recommend this practice. Thank you all so much for being so responsive.read more
As usual, the experience with Ada at District Veterinary Hospital was great!! Highly recommend!!
Great staff here from the front desk to the veterinarian. Make sure you pay the parking meter enough.
I had a great experience taking my cat here but I would like to shoutout Ava who was such a big help during my visit to the vet. She was patient,... taking the time to make sure my cat felt calm and comfortable. She answered all of my questions without making me feel rushed, which I really appreciated. It’s clear she cares about what she does, and it made the whole experience so much easier.read more
Ada? 👍👍👍
I have been going to District Vet for over two years with our two dogs and one cat. We have an elderly cattle dog mix with chronic health issue and... Dr Evans has provided outstanding care to her and our other two pets, who have had mostly wellness visits and dentals. The whole team of care providers from front of house to techs and even the other vets, like Dr Frost have all been super helpful, informative, friendly and professional.We travel from ADMO to Eastern Market because great vet care is worth it.read more

Nikki was a great help with my grand pup Sasha every time I have bring her in. She is very pleasant and positive to be around.
All the doctors here are amazing! I drive from Baltimore just so my three cats can receive care here. Compassionate, kind and knowledgeable. They... will email me on their day off to give me results and discuss care plans. We almost lost one of our fur babies at Thanksgiving but thanks to the vets and techs here she was saved. And DYANA!!!!!!!! She is amazing and is the cat whisperer. She has a calming way way with the animals that is so appreciated.read more

I’ve been coming to District Vet for a couple years now and love this place! Everyone there is ready to love on your pets and always have time for... your questions. I’ve had to call the non-emergency line and make same day appointments and the desk staff is on it.I’ve seen Dr. Camden and Dr. Hayes (all positives), but Dr. Frost has a special place in my heart. She guided me through the excruciating process of my senior cat’s illness and saying goodbye. I’m back with my new cat and know she’s in good hands with Dr. Frost for many years to come.read more
