My cat, Hope, needed boosters and an annual check up and I am SO glad I went to Adams Morgan Animal Hospital. Everything was easy and affordable and Hope left happy for a cat that had to get her shots. I so appreciate this place!

I brought my two dogs in here for the first time yesterday for a checkup and vaccinations. Dr. Boone and his staff are awesome. They were incredibly patient with my two temperamental Aussies who required a muzzle for their bloodwork and vaccines. The prices are very reasonable considering the location and Dr. Boone is very honest. For example, I inquired about dental cleanings for my pups and he said that it wasn't necessary at this time and even gave me some tips on what treats would help with tartar buildup. He even had his staff build a very detailed estimate for what the cost of a dental

I brought my cats here for over six years, seeing Dr. Boone (Jr) and Dr. Madden several times each.
Vet care - I was always pleased with their attention to the animals and advice given to me, especially initially as a very nervous, probably over-eager first-time cat owner. Both doctors and vet techs seemed to remember my cats and have a way with calming them. Office staff (because there are several negative reviewers on this point) - On occasion over several years people may not have been overly cheery at busy times but they were always professional and patient in explaining prices and then evolving

Just called and the voicemail just hangs up on you after it says no one to answer the phone. This is not the kind of service you'd want if you have an emergency or need to speak to someone...

I've been with this vet since 2011 and they've always exceeded my expectations. Today, during a time of crisis, they failed. My beagle broke his toenail and the quick was exposed, sensitive, and bleeding non stop for over 10 minutes. I explained this when i called them, also noting my dog wouldn't put pressure on his paw and I couldn't stop the bleeding, and without asking my name or checking my dog's chart, I was met with a cold, "Sir. We're booked for today. Let me give you the number for an emergency vet clinic." Her rude and dismissive manner was beneath
