Doctor Blackwood is seriously the best vet I have ever met and has been a Godsend for my chocolate lab who has had a rough year. I am thankful we live in NOVA, as I feel she is truly the best vet there is. She is caring, compassionate, and really loves the dogs the way you want to see your pet cared for. She knows what shes doing and is incredibly knowledgeable in her field and so responsive. Not sure what kind of awards there are for vets, but Dr. Blackwood deserves every single one of them. Thank you so much for all you have done for our pup!

My husband and I have only been using Clifton-Centreville Animal Clinic for the past 4-months but I only have positive things to say about the staff and vets! We have a 6-month old golden retriever and today we needed to see the vet ASAP for a bee sting and allergic reaction. The team got us in as quickly as they could and took good care of her. They made me feel at ease and kept me up to date on how she was doing. Being a vet is one of the hardest jobs, so many of us pet owners love our pets as children and part of the family that it can be scary when you don't know what's wrong with them or how

I started going to this practice when Dr. Netchirt was the owner. He was amazing. Recently, I took my 10 week old puppy to Dr. Blackwood. Although I'm sure she's competent, she disregarded almost everything our competent breeder advised. She told me that Victor dogf ood was recalled. It was not. As a matter of fact, it has one of the highest rated among dog foods. Her vaccine schedule, and neutering schedule was disregarded research and studies about waiting for full growth. I was not confident that she is up-to-date on new research for dogs. I will not be going back.
