We love district vet!
The doctor and nurses who took care of our dog Luna were extremely kind and knowledgeable. Luna has severe separation anxiety, and she was totally... relaxed and happy when I picked her up after oral surgery. They were caring enough to call and check up on her the following day. I highly recommend this veterinary practice!read more
"I’m impressed with the care provided at this dog hospital. The entire staff and the doctors are very kind. It’s a very clean and pleasant place.... Being my first time here, I felt very welcomed."read more
Dr. Nichols is a some kind of pitbull whisperer. Made our nervous pup feel right home, even though she wasn't excited about her blood test.
What a sweet and pro team!! My dog and I literally enjoyed this vet visit so much
We’ve been going to DistrictVet at least since 2011. Dr. Hassell (who we see) and the staff have always been professional, knowledgeable and... friendly. Before you agree to testing, a procedure, or a treatment, ASK how much it will cost: How much for the blood test? How much for the nail trim? How much for the two-week pill regimen for the cat’s infection? The doctor should be able to give you a ballpark figure within a range for a specific test or treatment. They’ve always been there for us. We had two cats who got the best care, and each one lived a long life. Now we have two new cats. We can depend on DistrictVet.read more

I'm telling you just don't go anywhere else. You will not find a better place than here anywhere ever!!! If I had the characters and the time I would... tell you my story but trust me there's no better placeread more

great staff from front desk, techs, and vets!
Very caring staff and doctors! Hazel loves going there!!
Wow, I wish I would have came here first, this is a great place and it’s a lot cheaper as well. For all my fellow pet parents in the yard, skip... Small Door and come here. My dog became sick, I called this place in the morning and had an appointment that afternoon. Definitely a better place, highly recommend! My dog approves too!read more
Love them and so do my dogs!
Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable
The doctors are great. Technicians are hit or miss, possibly overwhelmed. Parking can be very challenging.Update: All the technicians we encountered... on our few last visits were pleasant, helpful, and understanding.read more
Best vet in the city, imo. The owner has been my vet since before he owned his own practice. A true gem.
I recently had an ER situation with my boy Rufus. I contacted the Navy Yard location. As soon as we arrived I immediately felt supported. Shana... was on point especially with her service delivery. I must say Dr. Walker exceeded my expectations. I am grateful for their service and care.Stephenread more
I visited the location at 3748 10th St NE, and I am so pleased with the care that my cat (Brandon) received today. The entire staff was a joy to work... with and the care that Brandon received can never be understated. Each staff member that interacted with Brandon demonstrated patience and they were extremely kind towards him. I could tell that he felt at ease with the staff. I am very pleased with my visit today.read more
