Everyone is very nice and took care of my Henry as if he were their own. I was extremely grateful how patient the vet tech was in explaining pricing and making the visit more affordable for me.

This place is all about making money. Full Blood work price is $450. Is this place crazy or what? Are everyone goes to this place rich? I have found vet near me, only takes 5 minutes from my house. Good review 4.5 rating. Called them and their full blood work is only $250. And has only main Doctor vs Germantown vet has too many Doctors that they can't not recognize patients (pets).

Over the 4 years, I could've save money and my Fendi could've treated well. I am so regret staying with this place. And they are so rushing to get checked out. Doctor's as well that seems don't care much about patients.

My Dog had a diarrhea issue. They want me to bring stool sample. I brought to it this morning and the front desk lady said need to fill up to 7.5ml. No one explained to me in my visit on 3/21/22 when I left the office. I live in 20 minutes away. If technician explained more throughly then I could only do one trip. I don't know you've people notice about this office is too many people works here easily turnaround too much.

We adopted a three year old Lab that is very timid/fearful, so we were very apprehensive about her first vet visit. Although Abby would have preferred to be anywhere other than at the vet's, it could not have gone better. The waiting area was spotless and comfortable. Our tech (Tiffany) was very understanding of Abby's fearfulness and tried her best to put her at ease. Dr. Tidd checked Abby out and explained all our vaccination options. Overall, the experienced was excellent.

During my last visit, the vet (Dr. Eastep) was most attentive and took her time with examining and reviewing test results for my pet. She gave good advice and answered all my questions - and I had many. Her staff went above and aboard to offer suggestions for specialized treats and took special care with my pet. As always, customer service was a 10!

I can't say enough good things about this place. EVERY single time we come in for the past several years, we've had an amazing, professional, caring experience with my super senior kitty. We started coming here for annual checkups a few years back, and during this time I've gotten to know the staff very well. As my kitty's health is starting to slowly decline, and we are coming in more often, it's been extremely comforting to come to a place where we feel well taken care of and really look forward to seeing all staff members.

I can't imagine going anywhere else for the quality of care we've received throughout the years. Absolute superior professionalism, caring, polite, always a pleasure to see them. We are always in good hands, I would highly recommend this place.

For many years I've been happy to get caring for my pets. There is my second cat who has been in good hands that completely satisfy my needs. I've highly recommended the clinic for pet owners.

Everyone in the office is friendly, knowledgable, professional, and most of all very gentle with all the pets. I always have a good feeling every time I take my dog to see the vet and always happy with the experience. The professionals are top notch and the cost is very reasonable. So glad I found the Germantown Veterinary Clinic. I have recommended this Vet and will continue to do so.

I have brought my kitties here since 2016 and have not been disappointed ever! All the vets are so loving and caring towards my babies - they make me feel safe. I also bring my senior dog here and even though he's a grouch they staff still manages to put him in a good mood when we're here. I love Germantown Vet so much that I'll keep bringing my current and future pets as long as I live within a drivable distance!

I was referred to this office by a friend and they have been very good with reminder calls, emails and text messages. Recently I noticed my puppy had something wrong with his right ear and I called Monday and was given an appointment right away. When we arrived the tech came out to the truck to retrieve him and the vet came out to explain the problem and solutions. I enjoy this office and my puppy has been very comfortable when we arrive and always willing to go with one of the techs. Thank you for all that you do.

Germantown Vet agreed to take my sister's dog as a temporary patient when Daisy was staying with me while my sister was dealing with cancer treatments and recuperation. They were amazing and very caring. The veterinarians, the animal techs, and the patient people who answer the phones and responded to all of my questions. I just adopted a shelter dog.

The staff spent so much time at our first visit to make sure that my little guy was well taken care of and that I understood everything that he would need. They were also able to schedule some much needed dental surgery within the week. All of the staff at Germantown Veterinary Clinic absolutely ROCK THE PLANET!

This vet is so organized and fast. Staff and doctors are very knowledgeable and understanding. I felt so comfortable and was reassured that my dog would be treated well and taken care of. Everyone was very nice and the vet tech explained everything in detail, including prices, before my dog had her exam. I definitely would recommend them to anyone that wants their pet to feel calm and enjoy their experience at the vet. I know my dog had fun there!

All the staff at Germantown Vet are of the highest caliber. From the moment you are greeted at the front desk through checking out upon completion of your visit, the process runs seamlessly. The vets and there assistants are never rushing to get the patient in and out. They listen intently and explain everything so clearly. If you have questions, they will take the time to explain so that we understand what is going on. We know our three dogs are in the best hands when we need to make a visit to Germantown Vet.

i just wanted to say thank you to everyone at The Germantown Veterinary Clinic, especially Dr Rizol for being so kind over the last few weeks and especially today when we had to say goodbye to our beloved cat Sally. Because of there kindness and understanding they helped us make it through a very difficult day. We will be forever grateful.

Brought our BIG 19lb baby Delilah here to be checked out because she seemed to have a cough that wasn’t getting better after a few months & some behavior problem (urinating is places other than the litter box) , she got some blood work done & some XRays to see if it was anything serious causing her pain. Well to our surprise she was diagnosed with asthma & also had a laceration on her upper gum from a bad tooth.

They prescribed her liquid prednisone & antibiotics for the asthma & then got her lungs strong enough to be under anesthesia to remove the tooth causing her pain. She since has had 2 teeth pulled the same day which we found out was causing her more pain then the top tooth. She’s such a happy baby & I cannot thank the staff here enough for loving our baby & treating her like a princess when she was at the office on multiple occasions. The Fassler family appreciates you for treating our family like your family...and here is my angel relaxing with her mama today

I have had 2 visits with different animals with this Vet. The first time was with my son's dog (Marley, a Pitbull) who has a big bark but is very sweet and loving. The Tech came in and Marley barked, he looked at her and offered her a treat(she was not there because she was ill) and was immediately rewarded with her wiggles and licks. I was very impressed as I had Marley at a different Vet that immediately muzzled her.

They were all patient and gentle with a very pregnant first time mom (the dog not me). My son moved and so they never got to see all the puppies(8) but their advise helped a lot. The 2nd time was with my older big mix breed, Shep, again so gentle with him. We talked for over a half hour about things we could do but agreed because there was only 1 thing going on that we would go the simple route to treat him. He has bounced back wonderfully. We will definitely be sticking with this vet. Next visit will be with our very busy, smart, a bit crazy Border Collie.

The Schneider family is eternally grateful for the excellent professional care & expertise that Gracie received from the wonderful staff at GVC this past week! Gracie was in serious condition when we brought her in on Monday & you all worked so hard & tonight she is at home, happy & alive! There is no other veterinary practice that comes close to GVC in Montgomery County! We love you all!
