I have been taking my dog to Bradley Hills for eight years, and I have complete confidence in the care he gets there.  Dr. Weiss and his entire staff are very professional and kind.  They listen carefully and explain treatments and procedures in detail.  They seem to be up-to-date on new medications and research in vet medicine as well.   They also follow up every visit with an email or phone call to check on the patient.  The office environment is pleasant, and there is plenty of parking in the lot right in front.  I highly recommend this practice.

Our regular vet for the pets. Dr Weis is the principal veterinarian, and we find him very good with the pets. He is honest in his diagnoses and with prognosis. In our case, we have older pets, (age>12 years), so his prognoses were critical to our decision(s) for treatments; one being a temporary relief, for a dying pet. The staff is friendly, and have a very good rapport with the animals. Read Less

My first visit to Bradley Hills was very good. I was concerned for my dwarf Hotot who had stopped eating and drinking. Dr. Weiss was able to see my rabbit first thing in the morning on a Saturday. After arriving, I was met with friendly staff who got us into a patient room right away. Dr. Weiss examined my rabbit and prescribed her some probiotics. I was relieved to be able to be seen so quickly and to get a diagnosis that got her on the right track. Bunny is doing much better now. Thank you! (The cost was also very reasonable.) Read Less

Dr. Weiss is an amazing vet--a great diagnostician and brilliant surgeon. He's also a terrific person--really kind, decent and honest. He has operated on at least 13 animals my family and I have had over the years (cat, dogs, ferrets, rabbits, guinea pig) and even those with complex surgeries have come out well. And he once spared our beagle from unnecessary surgery recommended by an orthopedic surgeon. That surgeon told us the beagle had a completely torn ACL. He urged us to operate on the beagle as quickly as possible. Estimate: $2300, in addition to the $200 x-ray. I took the dog to Dr. Weiss--a general surgeon--for a second opinion. He felt around the beagle's leg for a bit, and said the ligament was likely just stretched or slightly torn. He recommended we limit the beagle's activity for six weeks. We did. Beagle's leg healed. Cost: about $70. Nine years later, beagle's leg is still fine. He gave our cat several extra years of life by removing cancerous tumors. He's the best. Wonderful person. Dedicated, talented vet. Staff is also really nice. Read Less

Dr. Weiss is the best vet I've been to in 26 years filled with lots of animals and vet visits. He's also a really kind person, has integrity and a great work ethic.I wish he took care of humans. I'd be his patient. So would some of my neighbors in Bethesda.Dr. Weiss has saved or extended the lives of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits and ferrets that I know or have owned.There was a case in our neighborhood where a dachshund ate a corn cob and was saved by Dr. Weiss. Owner was thrilled.He also removed a tumor wrapped around the main artery to a ferret's heart.In 2009, Dr. Weiss saved one of our beagles from unnecessary surgery. A well-recommended orthopedic surgeon had taken an x-ray on our limping beagle and then urged us to let him operate quickly to repair a torn ligament. I took the beagle to Dr. Weiss for a second opinion. He felt around the dog's leg for a bit--said he didn't need to see the x-ray. Dr. Weiss said the ligament was likely just stretched or slightly torn.He recommended a conservative approach--restricting the dog's movement for six weeks, then reevaluating.Four weeks later, the beagle was fine. Nine years later, still fine. Fee from Dr. Weiss? About $70.He also extended the life of our cat by removing several cancerous tumors.Great guy. Incredible vet. Read Less

My family had the pleasure of having Dr. Weiss as the veterinarian for our dog Sparky ever since he was a 6 weeks old. I cannot express how professional and caring Dr. Weiss is for the pets and the families that go to him - it's like he was an extension of your pet...like part of the family. We could never imagine taking Sparky to anyone else because you really felt how genuine and passionate Dr. Weiss is about animals and you can tell this is all he ever wanted to do. Sadly, we had to put Sparky down after 16 wonderful years and Dr. Weiss helped us so much through that ordeal. It was one of the toughest most challenging things our family ever went through and he provided ease and comfort to a level I haven't seen a professional do in any field. I couldn't imagine how anyone would be able to handle that ordeal, even from a veterinarian perspective, the way Dr. Weiss did. My family and I truly wish him and his team the best. We appreciate all they have done for us throughout the 16 years that Sparky lived. I absolutely recommend Dr. Weiss to all pet owners - you won't find anyone like him out there. Read Less

I originally came to Bradley Hills when I was concerned over an ear condition in one of my cats - the vet I was going to at the time just wasn't giving me very good information about the prognosis or treatment options, and even in asking questions I wasn't satisfied that I had enough information. So I took kitty over to Bradley Hills for a second opinion, and Dr. Mueller did a wonderful job of explaining everything to me in a way that I understood and also put my mind at ease for what the condition meant. I've gone ever since, bringing both my cats for annual exams/vaccinations and also other office visits as needed. The staff is friendly and helpful. Yes, it's expensive, but so is human medical care these days. The pricing is on par with any other vet in this area. But I've always felt I got my money's worth with top-flight care. Excellent veterinarian practice! Read Less

The doctor was super friendly and explained everything in detail and the rationale behind our puppy needing certain medications/not needing others. They do not try to oversell you on products/services/medications that aren't necessary, which is a nice break from other doctors and vets in the area.

We had to make a very difficult decision and have our pet gerbil put to sleep. He was Not Okay and we did not want to see him suffer anymore. We had seen a vet previously for him, but we did not like his bedside manner. He did not seem to understand gerbils or be terribly concerned for ours, so we wanted to find somewhere else. Given that it was early on a work day, we called BHAH because it was close and they were able to get us an appointment with Dr. Weiss for the procedure. Everyone was so kind, thoughtful, and understanding. Dr. Weiss explained the procedure and the method he would use, which was a lot more peaceful and humane for the little guy than how some places do it. We really appreciate the kindness and concern shown to us for even the life of the tiniest critter. That speaks volumes to me. Read Less

Dr. Weiss has great bedside manner but I'm not as confident about the medical care at this hospital. I went several times to this animal hospital but am no longer going. My dog went in for a broken tooth but he didn't pull the whole thing out (and then blamed me and said I didn't want the whole thing removed!). I then had to go to another vet, after her tooth continued to bleed, to have it extracted. My poor baby had to be anesthetized two times and I had to foot a huge bill. I also went to have an ear infection looked at but the ointment he gave me didn't work and I had to go to another vet to get a different ointment all the while her ear infection persisted. I really wish this place worked out because their prices are more reasonable but I guess this is a case of you get what you pay for. Read Less

Last month while on a walk with my leashed dog, my beautiful beloved little baby was viciously and violently attacked by another dog. A friend drove me right to Bradley Hills Animal Hospital where we'd been a customer for the nine years that I've had my dog. It was after hours and Dr. Weiss was gone, but they let me in and the vet tech, Christina assessed the severity of injuries and called Dr. Weiss. She took the first step in saving her life. I don't know where he was or what he was doing but he came back and saved her life. She was severely injured and in shock and had we moved her she would have died. I am absolutely confident of this fact. He put her in ICU and was up with her throughout the night. How on earth do you repay someone who does that for your dog? Over the next two weeks she was in and out of the hospital and had surgery-through it all he called and kept us up to date on her status in his extraordinarily kind and gentle manner. I could go on and on about this place....Christina, Victoria, Amber, Teresa, Brittany, Jesse (and whoever I am forgetting I am sorry) and the wonderful Dr. Weiss lovingly and skillfully helped us through this terrible ordeal. My entire family will be forever in their debt. I have also seen Dr. Mueller over the years for various issues. He too once identified an illness quickly and immediately hospitalized her. He also as kind and gentle as he is skilled.. There are not enough stars available for me to recommend this place. I could not be more impressed with the care I have received over the years.

I was quite impressed with this facility on my first visit. Dr. Weiss greeted my dog warmly, even sitting on the floor with her to gain her trust.  That was just about the last time we actually saw Dr. Weiss in person. From then on, I would relay symptoms to a vet technician who would, in turn, relay my update to Dr. Weiss and then his diagnosis/treatment options back to me.  My dog had a recurring problem with diarrhea. Dr. Weiss would prescribe a medication for a short term, then the diarrhea would return. Only after consulting with a specialist [extra expense] did I learn that placing my dog on the medication at a low dose permanently would resolve the problem with no side effects.My dog also had recurring scratching bouts for which Dr. Weiss prescribed [again, on short term bases] a steroid. After almost a year and half of this treatment, it was discovered that my dog had developed Cushing's disease---which can result from long-term steroid use.  I can't say that there was a direct cause and effect, of course.What finally turned me completely off was the front office staff. One of the women working there was a treasure---warm, caring, and reliable.  Reliability for other office staff was in short supply. I got tired of showing up to collect a prescription that had been promised over the phone, only to learn from some new face that it wasn't there and that she could find no confirmation it had been authorized.

I'll say this--the care you get depends on the doctor involved. Dr Mueller is a welcome addition. Maybe he will have some influence. In fact, I ended up using Dr. Mueller and his Hamden Lane clinic BECAUSE of a poor experience with Bradley HIlls!When we first got our dog, we noticed that she had a little mole like thing on her neck, near her collar. The collar was irritating it, and we took her in: Their diagnosis was she needed to be put under for a biopsy. Cost: $800 some dollars.Being a long time dog owner, though new to Bradley Hills, I new this was not the way to go. First, you are using anesthesia on a animal for what could be nothing. Next, was this test really necessary? I looked in Washington Consumer Checkbook and started calling around. I ended up at Hamden Lane, and with Dr. Mueller. He looked at it and said, "lets put some Cortaid on it". I said, "huh?" He wanted me to go to CVS, buy some cortisone cream and put in on every day for 2 weeks and see if it goes away. IT DID.I have been going to Dr. Mueller since, and now he is at Bradley Hills. I am  going to try and stick with him: he is a minimalist in terms of care of a dog and that is what I like. That is how I treat myself, and I am not going to subject my dog to unnecessary testing and drugs.More care--in people and animals--does not mean you get better outcomes. Bradley Hills, IMO, tries to provide the most care for the most money. Read Less

I just moved to Bethesda and decided to try this animal hospital from a referral from a colleague and because of their promotion for dental month. I'm not sure if I was their first appointment or not but right when I walked in the receptionist greeted me right away and my dog by name. She took me back to an exam room and a veterinary tech was with us within a few minutes. She took Tyler's vitals and then moments later we were greeted by Dr. Weiss. He was very friendly and listened attentively to what I had to say. He didn't try to push or sell any procedures such as dental cleaning and even suggested alternatives. He didn't rush our appointment at all and took his time asking us questions because I wasn't sure what to ask.Our first visit wasn't a cheap one at all, rather pretty pricey but you get what you pay for--in this case excellent service! I asked the office manager about payment options and they were able to work with me and my budget. This has been a first for me at any vet! Most other veterinary practices treat their hospital like a business expecting payment up front and in full. You can tell that this veterinary office takes great care with their pets as well as their owners! I feel very safe leaving my dog there and would recommend this vet to anyone! Read Less

if you have a ferret, and it needs surgery,or your dog or cat has orthopedic issues requiring surgery, Weiss is probably a go-to vet since he is known as a gifted surgeon but if you have a dog or a cat with routine complaints, you can probably get better care for a lot less. The office is understaffed and seemsmore than  a bit disorganized. The office physical space is very small and multiple animals have to wait for care in very close proximity. Dr. Weiss seems overbooked frequently  and I have heard from more than one pet owner about misdiagnoses.  If you get a recommendation for surgery, by all means, get a second opinion since surgery here is very expensive.   I would trade the "pet owner psychotherapy" (my words)  Bradley practices and the call backs by the staff after a pet visit for more reasonable prices.  I believe that Washington consumer checkbook rates this as in the top 3 most expensive vet practices in the DC area.

I have been using Dr. Weiss for over 10 years and he is one of the best in the area. He is very gentle with animals and thoroughly explains any procedures and reasoning for doing so. The vet is located in a residential area and his home is located on the premises, which is comforting to know in case your pet needs to stay the night. Read Less

I was initially a bit wary of this place, since read a negative review or two on the Google search page, but I decided to go anyway because I figure every establishments gets one or two cranky-pots :) Plus it was pretty close to where I live and it was the first search result! (My friend and I was betting on whether it was the first because it was the best result or because they paid to for it!)Though I am $100 bucks poorer, I was very satisfied with my experience with this veterinarian. Nestled in a very residential part of Bethesda/Potomac, the clinic looks like its an add on to the veterinarian's house. I brought my cat in for his usual UTI problem, but he must have chickened out when he realized he was going to the doctor so he healthied up by the time i got there! Even so, Dr. Weiss acknowledged that my cat seemed healthy and didn't try to force me to run a bunch of unnecessary tests. I had the appropriate medicine at home, so he didn't make me get additional medicine.  I know a lot of other doctors that would otherwise try to make and extra buck by making me pick up other medicine, so I appreciated his caring and reasonable approach. I also got a phone call the following day from the secretary to ask how my cat was doing. I hope my cat doesn't have any other illnesses, but if so, I'll return! Read Less

I drive about 45 minutes each way to see Dr. Weiss at Bradley Hills Animal Hospital.  I have two ferrets, and Dr. Weiss' expertise in ferrets initially drew me in, after being unsatisfied with a vet much closer to my home.  Dr. Weiss has always been very thorough, caring, and knowledgeable, and his staff has been great as well.  After good experiences with the ferrets there, I started taking my cat, who is a very high anxiety old lady and vet visits with her have always been stressful.  Dr. Weiss took extra measures not to stress her out (despite the fact that it took a little longer that way), which made the experience much less stressful for us as well!  In my experience, routine costs (exams, vaccinations, etc) are somewhere around average.  We've now had Dr. Weiss perform 3 surgeries on the ferrets, and while I know that I could find a cheaper price, I feel that the extra cost is worth it for the surgeon's skill and experience and the extra attention that the whole staff gives to each patient.

Dr. Weiss is an amazing vet--a great diagnostician and brilliant surgeon. He's also a terrific person--really kind, decent and honest. He has operated on at least 13 animals my family and I have had over the years (cat, dogs, ferrets, rabbits, guinea pig) and even those with complex surgeries have come out well. And he once spared our beagle from unnecessary surgery recommended by an orthopedic surgeon. That surgeon told us the beagle had a completely torn ACL. He urged us to operate on the beagle as quickly as possible. Estimate: $2300, in addition to the $200 x-ray. I took the dog to Dr. Weiss--a general surgeon--for a second opinion. He felt around the beagle's leg for a bit, and said the ligament was likely just stretched or slightly torn. He recommended we limit the beagle's activity for six weeks. We did. Beagle's leg healed. Cost: about $70. Nine years later, beagle's leg is still fine. He gave our cat several extra years of life by removing cancerous tumors. He's the best. Wonderful person. Dedicated, talented vet. Staff is also really nice. Read Less

I took the beagle to Dr. Weiss for a second opinion. He felt around the dog's leg for a bit--said he didn't need to see the x-ray. Dr. Weiss said the ligament was likely just stretched or slightly torn.He recommended a conservative approach--restricting the dog's movement for six weeks, then reevaluating.Four weeks later, the beagle was fine.

My family had the pleasure of having Dr. Weiss as the veterinarian for our dog Sparky ever since he was a 6 weeks old. I cannot express how professional and caring Dr. Weiss is for the pets and the families that go to him - it's like he was an extension of your pet...like part of the family. We could never imagine taking Sparky to anyone else because you really felt how genuine and passionate Dr. Weiss is about animals and you can tell this is all he ever wanted to do. Sadly, we had to put Sparky down after 16 wonderful years and Dr. Weiss helped us so much through that ordeal. It was one of the toughest most challenging things our family ever went through and he provided ease and comfort to a level I haven't seen a professional do in any field. I couldn't imagine how anyone would be able to handle that ordeal, even from a veterinarian perspective, the way Dr. Weiss did. My family and I truly wish him and his team the best. We appreciate all they have done for us throughout the 16 years that Sparky lived. I absolutely recommend Dr. Weiss to all pet owners - you won't find anyone like him out there. Read Less

I originally came to Bradley Hills when I was concerned over an ear condition in one of my cats - the vet I was going to at the time just wasn't giving me very good information about the prognosis or treatment options, and even in asking questions I wasn't satisfied that I had enough information. So I took kitty over to Bradley Hills for a second opinion, and Dr. Mueller did a wonderful job of explaining everything to me in a way that I understood and also put my mind at ease for what the condition meant. I've gone ever since, bringing both my cats for annual exams/vaccinations and also other office visits as needed. The staff is friendly and helpful.

Last month while on a walk with my leashed dog, my beautiful beloved little baby was viciously and violently attacked by another dog. A friend drove me right to Bradley Hills Animal Hospital where we'd been a customer for the nine years that I've had my dog. It was after hours and Dr. Weiss was gone, but they let me in and the vet tech, Christina assessed the severity of injuries and called Dr. Weiss. She took the first step in saving her life. I don't know where he was or what he was doing but he came back and saved her life. She was severely injured and in shock and had we moved her she would have died. I am absolutely confident of this fact. He put her in ICU and was up with her throughout the night. How on earth do you repay someone who does that for your dog? Over the next two weeks she was in and out of the hospital and had surgery-through it all he called and kept us up to date on her status in his extraordinarily kind and gentle manner. I could go on and on about this place....Christina, Victoria, Amber, Teresa, Brittany, Jesse (and whoever I am forgetting I am sorry) and the wonderful Dr. Weiss lovingly and skillfully helped us through this terrible ordeal. My entire family will be forever in their debt. I have also seen Dr. Mueller over the years for various issues. He too once identified an illness quickly and immediately hospitalized her.

I was quite impressed with this facility on my first visit. Dr. Weiss greeted my dog warmly, even sitting on the floor with her to gain her trust.  That was just about the last time we actually saw Dr. Weiss in person. From then on, I would relay symptoms to a vet technician who would, in turn, relay my update to Dr. Weiss and then his diagnosis/treatment options back to me.  My dog had a recurring problem with diarrhea. Dr. Weiss would prescribe a medication for a short term, then the diarrhea would return. Only after consulting with a specialist [extra expense] did I learn that placing my dog on the medication at a low dose permanently would resolve the problem with no side effects.My dog also had recurring scratching bouts for which Dr. Weiss prescribed [again, on short term bases] a steroid. After almost a year and half of this treatment, it was discovered that my dog had developed Cushing's disease---which can result from long-term steroid use.  I can't say that there was a direct cause and effect, of course.What finally turned me completely off was the front office staff. One of the women working there was a treasure---warm, caring, and reliable.  Reliability for other office staff was in short supply. I got tired of showing up to collect a prescription that had been promised over the phone, only to learn from some new face that it wasn't there and that she could find no confirmation it had been authorized.

I'll say this--the care you get depends on the doctor involved. Dr Mueller is a welcome addition. Maybe he will have some influence. In fact, I ended up using Dr. Mueller and his Hamden Lane clinic BECAUSE of a poor experience with Bradley HIlls!When we first got our dog, we noticed that she had a little mole like thing on her neck, near her collar. The collar was irritating it, and we took her in: Their diagnosis was she needed to be put under for a biopsy. Cost: $800 some dollars.Being a long time dog owner, though new to Bradley Hills, I new this was not the way to go. First, you are using anesthesia on a animal for what could be nothing. Next, was this test really necessary? I looked in Washington Consumer Checkbook and started calling around. I ended up at Hamden Lane, and with Dr. Mueller. He looked at it and said, "lets put some Cortaid on it". I said, "huh?" He wanted me to go to CVS, buy some cortisone cream and put in on every day for 2 weeks and see if it goes away. IT DID.I have been going to Dr. Mueller since, and now he is at Bradley Hills. I am  going to try and stick with him: he is a minimalist in terms of care of a dog and that is what I like. That is how I treat myself, and I am not going to subject my dog to unnecessary testing and drugs.More care--in people and animals--does not mean you get better outcomes. Bradley Hills, IMO, tries to provide the most care for the most money. Read Less

Only downside - we were not impressed by the vet tech's handling of our gerbil - she sort of dumped him out of the carrier onto the scale and grabbed him by his tail. BUT she seemed sort of young and he is really squirmy. Would still go back. Read Less

I just moved to Bethesda and decided to try this animal hospital from a referral from a colleague and because of their promotion for dental month. I'm not sure if I was their first appointment or not but right when I walked in the receptionist greeted me right away and my dog by name. She took me back to an exam room and a veterinary tech was with us within a few minutes. She took Tyler's vitals and then moments later we were greeted by Dr. Weiss. He was very friendly and listened attentively to what I had to say. He didn't try to push or sell any procedures such as dental cleaning and even suggested alternatives. He didn't rush our appointment at all and took his time asking us questions because I wasn't sure what to ask.Our first visit wasn't a cheap one at all, rather pretty pricey but you get what you pay for--in this case excellent service! I asked the office manager about payment options and they were able to work with me and my budget. This has been a first for me at any vet! Most other veterinary practices treat their hospital like a business expecting payment up front and in full. You can tell that this veterinary office takes great care with their pets as well as their owners! I feel very safe leaving my dog there and would recommend this vet to anyone! Read Less

Good vet care here, but their prices are rape. If you must go here, though, make sure to get an appointment with the head vet Dr. Weiss. You can tell he cares about each little critter he sees. I brought an X-Ray done from another hospital on my cat, who has arthritis, and he spent a good few minutes looking at it.A good friend who's not on yelp brings her dogs here, and has been happy with their services.  They do accept Care Credit - always a bonus in my book.

if you have a ferret, and it needs surgery,or your dog or cat has orthopedic issues requiring surgery, Weiss is probably a go-to vet since he is known as a gifted surgeon but if you have a dog or a cat with routine complaints, you can probably get better care for a lot less. The office is understaffed and seemsmore than  a bit disorganized. The office physical space is very small and multiple animals have to wait for care in very close proximity. Dr. Weiss seems overbooked frequently  and I have heard from more than one pet owner about misdiagnoses.  If you get a recommendation for surgery, by all means, get a second opinion since surgery here is very expensive.   I would trade the "pet owner psychotherapy" (my words)  Bradley practices and the call backs by the staff after a pet visit for more reasonable prices.  I believe that Washington consumer checkbook rates this as in the top 3 most expensive vet practices in the DC area.

I am very, very protective of my dog, and Dr Weiss is the only primary vet I'd trust her with. I know folks who've worked at several vets office who say that this is the only place they know of where the animals are treated the same whether or not the owner is there, which is a huge thing. My dog actually really loves Dr Weiss and all of his staff. Yes, prices are high but it's worth it and we get some money back from our insurance company. Dr Weiss has done several surgeries on our girl and we've had a good experience each time. They also took fantastic care of her when she had a life threatening bout of pancreatitis. Read Less

I have been using Dr. Weiss for over 10 years and he is one of the best in the area. He is very gentle with animals and thoroughly explains any procedures and reasoning for doing so. The vet is located in a residential area and his home is located on the premises, which is comforting to know in case your pet needs to stay the night. Read Less

I was initially a bit wary of this place, since read a negative review or two on the Google search page, but I decided to go anyway because I figure every establishments gets one or two cranky-pots :) Plus it was pretty close to where I live and it was the first search result! (My friend and I was betting on whether it was the first because it was the best result or because they paid to for it!)Though I am $100 bucks poorer, I was very satisfied with my experience with this veterinarian. Nestled in a very residential part of Bethesda/Potomac, the clinic looks like its an add on to the veterinarian's house. I brought my cat in for his usual UTI problem, but he must have chickened out when he realized he was going to the doctor so he healthied up by the time i got there! Even so, Dr. Weiss acknowledged that my cat seemed healthy and didn't try to force me to run a bunch of unnecessary tests. I had the appropriate medicine at home, so he didn't make me get additional medicine.  I know a lot of other doctors that would otherwise try to make and extra buck by making me pick up other medicine, so I appreciated his caring and reasonable approach. I also got a phone call the following day from the secretary to ask how my cat was doing. I hope my cat doesn't have any other illnesses, but if so, I'll return! Read Less

I drive about 45 minutes each way to see Dr. Weiss at Bradley Hills Animal Hospital.  I have two ferrets, and Dr. Weiss' expertise in ferrets initially drew me in, after being unsatisfied with a vet much closer to my home.  Dr. Weiss has always been very thorough, caring, and knowledgeable, and his staff has been great as well.  After good experiences with the ferrets there, I started taking my cat, who is a very high anxiety old lady and vet visits with her have always been stressful.  Dr. Weiss took extra measures not to stress her out (despite the fact that it took a little longer that way), which made the experience much less stressful for us as well!  In my experience, routine costs (exams, vaccinations, etc) are somewhere around average.  We've now had Dr. Weiss perform 3 surgeries on the ferrets, and while I know that I could find a cheaper price, I feel that the extra cost is worth it for the surgeon's skill and experience and the extra attention that the whole staff gives to each patient.
