Services
St. Charles Animal Hospital offers a variety of veterinary services to pets, both big and small, in our clean, modern facilities located at 11685 Doolittle Drive in Waldorf. We have appointments from 8 AM to 7 PM, Monday through Friday and 8 AM to 1 PM on Saturdays. Early drop offs are available for your convenience starting at 7 AM, Monday through Friday.
Because of the shorter lifespan of our pets, we stress the importance of an annual physical examination. As our pets get into middle age, we then recommend physical examinations twice a year. Thorough check-ups and preventive care can help prevent or alleviate serious health problems. Diagnostic and Therapeutic Services: Our hospital is equipped to provide diagnostic and therapeutic services to care for your pets' complete health care needs.
As a young child I found a stray dog while playing outside and immediately fell in love with her! I brought her home and much to my surprise, my parents let me keep her. I must have been about seven years old at the time. Soon thereafter, Taffy decided to eat a sponge and developed a complete obstruction - vomiting was all that she could do.
Join our team of happy faces and plan to enjoy your career as a veterinarian! We are looking for a new or recent graduate that would like to have a long term relationship with us. Be prepared to learn new skills and practice high quality medicine and surgery, while potentially expanding your areas of special interest.
One of the things that many clients fear the most is anesthesia. This need not be the case! As a veterinarian, I have been using various anesthetics for over 47 years. Over the years I have seen the development of many new drugs and the drugs that we are currently using are so safe that we do not hesitate to anesthetize any pet that needs to have a procedure done.

So friendly, competent, they cater to us neurotic pet owners' emotions, they fawn over your babies, and do whatever it takes to make your pets comfortable, including treats and cuddles. They are thorough, educate owners, answer questions thoroughly, and make sure your comfortable before you leave. Always a great experience.

Saint Charles Animal Hospital is awesome. We transferred care of our fur babies from another local veterinarian and it is like night and day. So caring and responsive. Also they are very up on new treatments and explain everything very well.

After calling eight times in a row, someone finally picked up with hanging up on me. My family just moved to the area and need a new vet anyway, but today, because one of our dogs got (what I suspect) is kennel cough. He coughs so hard he barfs up his food and water. I don’t want him getting dehydrated or worse. Not only is it a “two to three week wait, I just don’t know because I didn’t work this weekend” is what the receptionist said. Then proceeded to rattle off a list of places all the way to Annapolis to take him, I’m in La Plata, but admits she doesn’t know anything about any

Thank you so much to all of the doctors and staff at St. Charles animal hospital. They were extremely professional and very animal oriented. They treated every animal as if they were a human being treating them with with love and affection and most importantly treating them like their own. I had a last minute surgery for my beloved cat and he was definitely in great hands during the entire procedure alongside daily updates and in depth explanations on what was wrong. They always had a positive attitude towards their job daily and provided a comfortable atmosphere that made me and my wife happy

Initially my dog was being seen by Petsmart. When he was diagnosed with bladder stones and needed surgery, they were unable to do it and suggested I go to a local pet hospital. I was referred to this place by a coworker.
They were very helpful at the consultation. Due to COVID-19, their process for seeing pets is down to a science. Everything was done with precision mainly from the car. The staff were friendly.
The day of surgery was stressful for me and Bishop but Dr. Neuman and staff eased our fears. What was supposed to be a regular routine surgery turned into something more complicated and
