The team at Fort Hunt Animal Hospital is awesome! I started using them with my dog Cooper when he was neutered and took my cat Sketch there recently when I was worried he wasn’t well. They gave me great information and options for Sketch and even called to check on him! Luckily he’s much better and it’s because of the great team. You can tell they really love what they do and they value their clients. Read Less

This is the first vet I've found in the area that doesn't make money their 1st priority.  I took my sick dog and the bill was $325.00 as opposed to my previous vet at which the bill was never under $600.00!!! The veterinarian was very compassionate. I will return to this practice. Read Less

This place is amazing. Everyone is really nice and great at what they do. My cat has been having a ton of health problems and Dr Kingsley has been going above and beyond trying to make him better. I feel like the people here genuinely care about my cat and have his best interests in mind. I live pretty far away from Ft Hunt and will gladly make the trek to them because they’re worth the trouble. I wouldn’t take my cat anywhere else. Read Less

Great staff. Very supportive with a hard decision that we had to make. Was very patient and did not rush the process. Very articulate with the process and very sympathetic and understanding and supportive with the decision. They even offered a house call if we chose to take our pet home to spend more time with her if needed. Read Less

This place is hands down amazing. We see Dr. Kingsley and she treats our dog with tender care. The whole staff is amazing from arrival to departure, getting down on their hands and knees to make sure your pet feels comfortable upon arrival for weigh in and giving treats upon departure!!Recommend this place :) Read Less

Excellent experience two times now. Veterinarians are very professional and very thorough. Did not push for treatments (made suggestions and gave options). They listened and then addressed the concerns and issues completely. Whole staff are kind, caring, and compassionate towards our pets. Would definitely recommend and we'll be back. Read Less

Our beloved Maine coon cat suffered a medical emergency. Dr. Julie Pearson and her team acted quickly and saved my cat's life. Dr. Pearson is just excellent. Warm efficient and very knowledgeable. So happy to have finally found a vet I respect and trust. Read Less

Called here for 2nd opinion for a sick cat, and they were able to see me same day! Dr Barker (yes, her real name) listened to me and my cat, and she is currently doing much better. Received not only 1, but 2, follow up phone calls on her progress. Just found my new vet home for all my pets. Read Less

We have enjoyed the care we have received at Fort Hunt.  The lobby area is split into a section for cats and a section for dogs.  The front desk staff is always kind and welcoming.  But honestly, the best part of this vet is our doctor, Dr. Pearson.  She always takes time with us to discuss our pets and we feel she genuinely cares about us and our pets.  It is rare in this business world when you can find anyone who actually cares about their customers and Dr Pearson does that.

I adopted a cat who had been a long time resident at an animal shelter and was seen at Ft Hunt during her time there. We wanted to have her tested for a UTI/urinary issues and the shelter foster arranged with ft hunt to pick up a urine sample test kit so that I could bring a sample in. Our cat had been mistreated before she arrived at the animal shelter, so we can't pick her up and trying to get her in a carrier is terrifying for her. I brought the sample in and I explained the situation and that this had already been arranged. The receptionist was polite and pleasant. But, a young tech who seemed to have an attitude from the start told me that they couldn't test the sample without giving her an exam. (That was the second thing she said, the first was "I'm putting a catheter in a patient right now, so we don't have time to deal with this." I came during normal business hours and I had not asked to speak to this vet tech in particular -- this was pretty unprofessional.)  The tech told me they couldn't prescribe medicine without seeing the cat. I politely told her I understood and wasn't asking for a prescription at this time, just lab results. Also, according to the cat's records, she had been examined at ft hunt six months before for the same issue. I also explained that if treatment were needed, we would need a dr who could do house calls because of our situation. Amazingly, she then said she could just give me some gabapentin for the cat so that we could bring her in. Gabapentin is a prescription medication... and she had just told me that the reason they needed an exam was because they can't prescribe without seeing the cat! That made it pretty obvious to me that demanding an exam had nothing to do with concern for the cat's health.The receptionist told us the manager would call later. We had to call later and got the same response, but by then it was too late to take the sample elsewhere. I later out found out that FT Hunt does house calls, which is what we will need for this cat in the future. But after FT Hunt was as difficult as possible about a reasonable (and prearranged) request for an existing patient, I can't imagine working with them. So they've lost an existing patient and a potential new customer. Read Less

All of my thanks to Dr. Taylor - it means so much knowing how loved you are by our kitty Toby! I can't wait to bring our little girl kitty to meet you on her next visit! 2 thumbs up for Fort Hunt Animal Hospital! Read Less

I am a foster mom for King Street Cats and the shelter and Fort Hunt have a relationship. I do not have any other experience with vets, but everyone at this place is always nice and helpful. The waiting area is clean and there are even cats in residence! Read Less

I can't thank Dr. Barker enough for helping me through such a difficult time when putting my 18 year old dog Wee pup down. She was incredibly kind and sensitive to all my needs. I will never forget the sweet word of reassurance she shared with me. This is truly an incredible place and I can highly recommend it. Read Less

Love the doctors and staff at this place. Professional and informed. They really try to figure out the root cause. And the prices are reasonable. They are also very sweet and loving towards my three cats, which I appreciate. Read Less

My dog? well, he's a 16 pound Chihuahua-Jack Russell mix who was born with a Napoleon complex...in other words, he's pretty much the butthead of the neighbor when it comes to most people and other dogs. Thank goodness we found Ft Hunt Animal hospital! I had been boarding him once a year at another facility-it was good kennel but it took me almost an hour to get there, so when i realized Ft Hunt was in my neighborhood, I thought I would give them a try. It's been 2 years and I recommend them to friends-I could not be happier with the care. We use them for boarding and also his regular medical care. I love that all the techs know him by name and even though he's a bit of a pistol and sometimes has to wear the "party hat" (muzzle) when he's being trimmed, he doesn't hold it against them. He's even had his teeth cleaned there, which is a scary prospect for someone who lost a dog during a teeth cleaning, but he came through just fine and they promptly let me know he was doing well once he was out of the cleaning.He always seems happy when we pick him up from boarding and he's usually smelling especially nice due to the bath he gets. We make his boarding time a "spa" experience and usually have  him bathed and trimmed while he's visiting--he even gets an extra walk each day just to keep him content. Read Less

Fantastic team, Dr Baker went above and beyond her duties to make sure my Doxie had a proper diagnosis. Without Dr Bakers intense dedication to detail, my little dog was able to bounce back from her illness and faces a bright and successful recovery. Dr Baker, not only resolved my fears but she also showed great empathy and kindness through the entire process. Read Less

My boyfriend and I recently moved to the area and we were referred to Dr. Barker by a friend of ours. She was absolutely amazing, as well as the rest of the staff. Everybody went out of their way to be friendly and caring towards my high-energy canine! The facility was clean and welcoming. Dr. Barker spent time with me explaining everything that she was going to do, and getting to know my pet. Great experience. I'm happy, and Milo is happy :) Read Less

Had a very sad experience resulting in the death of our cat during surgery. Had been taking our cats here for years without any problems, but we were never fond of the young doctor they currently have that performed the surgery. A very sad loss for my family. Read Less

The staff at Fort Hunt Animal Hospital was the nicest veterinary staff I have ever met. When my cat got a urinary infection, one of my mom's friends told her about this place. I knew this place would be good when I called and the person who made the appointment was very friendly and helpful. My cat has had a history of urinary infections. Other vets that I had been to simply looked at my cat and charged me 900+ dollars for procedures and medication. The veteranarian here looked at my cat, and carefully explained to me what the problem was by showing us a chart of a cat's urinary tract. Because of this, I knew exactly what my cat's problem was and had a better idea of how to prevent it in the future. At the end of the visit, I was grateful to know that my cat did not end up having an unecesarry and expensive procedure. I ended up paying only about $250 for medication and food; which was about a quarter of what I had paid at other vets for the same problem My visit here was a very pleasant one. The vet and the vet techs were very friendly, and I could tell my cat was comfortable as well. Read Less
