I've been going to Georgetown Vet for nine years now. One dog, two cats. Drs Furst and Gamez are dedicated, skilled, understanding; the medical assistants are each really quite wonderful (one even came to my home multiple times over Christmas holidays to deliver IV meds!) and the front staff could not be more efficient and personable. Terrific group of experts. May, 2025 read more

See all

On a Saturday morning, I waited over 30 minutes to see the Vet for yearly routine shots. They charged $38 to surface clean my one year old dog's ears. I would not have paid that if they had quoted it. I could have done it myself. It used to be something Dr. Peppard did as part of a yearly visit. Over $300 later, we left. read more

Not only was my dog misdiagnosed and given the incorrect medication, he almost died from his illness. In addition, the technician (not the doctor) told us that my dog had a "behavioral issue". To add insult to injury, I was charged FULL FEE for seeing a technician as the doctor was no where in sight. There are three other vets within 5 miles of this one; use one of them instead. read more

I just moved to the area and have been searching online for vet reviews. I have 2 dogs and a cat. I called Georgetown Vet and talked with the receptionist who was super helpful. Dr. Rosenblitt saw both my dogs and was so sweet and kind. She explained everything they were going to do and if anything more popped up that they wanted to look for, Liz would come out and let me know as well as price difference. Liz was awesome about explaining things as well as Kate when she told me my dog had Anaplasmosis (tick borne disease) Everyone was so wonderful with my dogs and I am so appreciative to have just moved here and found an awesome vet on the first try. I have to say I was pleasantly pleased with the pricing as well. I highly recommend them. read more

in the quest to find a Veterinary Clinic that is run by and employs compassionate, economical, helpful, engaged and understanding staff this turned out to NOT be one. In fact, they "fired" me and my dogs by turning their backs on helping my dog because they didn't like filling out the forms necessary for me to receive reimbursement from the insurance company we pay a lot of money to each month so we can provide the best care for our dogs. I have NO idea why it became such a drama and they (not sure exactly who but it appears the Vet and the office manager, who is the Chief Vet's wife) seem to have decided on their own that I asked them to perform some sort of unethical act by requesting they are specific in wording their diagnosis instead of sending in a form to the insurance company that says "dental procedure". The insurance supervisor said that it was too vague and that though the Dr says there's bacteria in the dogs mouth that must be removed, she refused to write anything more than Dental procedure making it seem it's a routine dental cleaning and would cost me $500 out of pocket when I pay $125 a month for my 2 dogs BECAUSE CT is way more expensive than NY and therefore monthly premiums cost more....bottom line, Georgetown is not interested in forging relationships with clients and helping their pets if they can't pay out of their nose. Also, I have learned that when wives of the Vet's are the office manager's they are very snippy and feel like they can afford to turn away clients. At this point, we are looking at this as an adventure to find the best care possible for our fur babies. next week We have an appointment at yet, another Vet clinic, not a private one, not run by a wife fingers crossed we found our Vet, the receptionist said they deal with insurance form all week long and understand the sensitivity in wording the claims properly and how important it is for pet owners. Also at this clinic, 1st appointment is free. Visits are not cheap if it's not a "revisit" but at this point, I think we're prepared. BTW, here's a great article: http://www.veterinaryteambrief.com/article/challenging-client-setting-boundaries-showing-compassion and this one too: http://www.angryvet.com/the-cost-of-veterinary-medicine/ read more

I was recently referred to Dr. Gamez by my regular vet for the care of a sick goldfish. That alone speaks volumes about the compassion of this veterinarian (it's not easy to find someone who will treat goldfish!). My initial impression was that the office was very clean and the staff friendly. What really impressed me was the wide variety of animals being treated. As for my goldfish, Dr. Gamez and her staff were very caring, and went above and beyond my expectations to find a cure. I have owned several pets (two dogs, many cats) over the years, and have visited many vets. It's obvious that Dr. Gamez is someone who genuinely cares about the animals she treats and I'd trust her with the wellbeing if my pets. Other reviewers have commented on cost, but I didn't find their pricing to be different from what I pay elsewhere (just ask for pricing at the start so there are no surprises at checkout). Overall, I would absolutely, and wholeheartedly, recommend Georgetown Veterinary. read more

The last reviewer complained about this vet not filing out insurance papers. It is impossible to conclude from Dremora D's complaint that the vet declined to fill out the papers because of a desire to not fill out forms, as opposed to ethical or regulatory concerns in reporting procedures to an insurance company. If this is not the vet who can assist you in this way, Dremora D., go to someone else. But a one-star review, because of this "problem", is unjustified. This vet is excellent; professional and kind. And unlike some, they do not gouge clients by promoting products (shamelessly, profit-driven recommendations). My rating is on the basis of the care of the animals, not merely their pursuit of repeat clients. I have a happy macaw. read more

I have always been a huge fan of Georgetown Veterinary Hospital, but I am now eternally grateful for the care, compassion and guidance that they provide. My 10 year old golden retriever has been cared for there since he was a puppy and now is recovering from major surgery. He is doing remarkably well and I know that we have the expertise of their doctors and technicians to thank for his amazing progress. They understand that they are working on my first baby and know what he means to our family. They have treated him - and us - with endless kindness throughout this journey and I cannot say thank you enough! If you want excellent care and compassionate providers, Georgetown Veterinary Hospital is the place for you! PS - I could not disagree more with Demora D's review. I know the vets, technicians and staff at this hospital very well and I have NEVER had a bad experience. They could not be nicer and more helpful to me, my family and my dog. They proactively complete my insurance forms each time that we visit - I don't even have to ask. I am saddened that her review lowers the rating of this wonderful veterinary practice when her issue may actually be with the insurance company. (Note: check out her other reviews for proof that she frequently bashes businesses and her issues all seem to involve customer service problems....hmmm) read more

AMAZING. No other way to say it. Drs Gomas and Truffini truly care about each animal as well as all their staff and amazingly friendly receptionists. They do what they do because they love animals. They work closely with ROAR shelter where I personally work and we are so happy to be this connected with them because they work with our crazy rescue schedules so easily and with big smiles! Dr Gomas is wonderful with my pet bird Cha Cha and I would recommend anyone at this practice to anybody needing a vet. They are incredible and I trust their opinions 100%. read more

There are many vets to choose from in the area, but I highly recommend this one! In addition to being at the top of their classes at prestigious veterinary schools, all three of the doctors are very knowledgeable and caring. The staff in front is also great. I have been taking my dog here for almost his entire life (7 short years), and I grew to know each doctor, tech, assistant and receptionist, and consider them all my friends for what they did for my dog (and me!). Sadly, he lost his life this month due to a terminal illness, but he died surrounded by love. I received handwritten sympathy cards from each of the doctors, hugs from the staff, and a pawprint impression of my little guy a week later. They really care here! If you love your pet, they will love him too. read more

Buyer Beware 12 years ago I adopted a puppy I thought Georgetown Vet Hospital would be good fit for me. it was close to my home and I thought if there was a 911 I could rush my dog over to them pretty fast . I made the appt , she went in and oh boy I received serious over charging on my bill and she received unessasary meds during her visit there. It still bothers me to this day that I found out later on that my puppy had way too much anesthesia and meds for her size . She went in for vaccinations and to be spayed it was a whopping $1000!! I was really struggling then financially, but my pet was important to me. I didn't know any better, and I wasn't educated like I am now on what she really needed. I probably could have done a few things and gone back to have a few things done. Also they wouldn't let me make payments I paid the whole thing at the door ....I love the vets I have now , and found out that not every vet like Georgetown Vet price Gouge !!! read more
