I typically don't write reviews but felt compelled to because we had a great experience here last night and were extremely thankful. We've been around the block with medical issues with our dogs, and have our regular care vet that we love but have definitely had issues with other urgent care/emergency vets who are only interested in charging you the most amount of money possible. We brought one of our dogs in last night because of severe gastrointestinal issues with bloody diarrhea and Dr Duncan was able to immediately assess to provide exactly what we needed with the minimal amount of

It’s clean. Staff is very friendly and helpful. It is worth the drive from Chevy Chase to get prompt service. I’m glad I don’t hafta wait in the car and I can be in the exam room. Thank you. 🐾🐾

Sadly on December 18 my little constant companion, Pepi, passed away suddenly in my arms. To say I was beyond grief stricken and devastated would be an understatement. Bennett Creek Urgent Care took care of Pepi when I had to bring him in to them. They were so compassionate and kind, especially the male vet tech. That can make all the difference in the world in a profession where they sadly see loss probably almost every day. I won't hesitate to come back if they need arises for urgent care when it's not during my vet's hours.

I have 7 pets and I've been looking for a reliable, responsive veterinary office since I moved here 2 years ago. I finally found them. They are reasonably priced, offer a plethora of services, and are extremely professional and caring. The fact that they are also an urgent care and have a wide range of availability was the cherry on top.

We had to take our duck here for an emergency visit last night and it was a wonderful experience. Receptionists were super nice and informative over the phone, also very polite when we arrived. Quick wait times. The Dr we saw was incredibly nice and reassuring. After the examination she explained everything to us which was super comforting. They didn’t add any unnecessary charges. Also super clean and professional atmosphere. Highly recommend and if we lived closer we’d bring all of our animals here.

Thank you so much Bennet Creek Animal Hospital. I arrived 15 minutes before closing and half expected to be turned away but figured I’d give it a try before going to another emergency room. I was so surprised when the young lady at the desk told me to come and check in. Given the late hour, not one staff member made me feel bad for coming in late. Just love, kindness, grace and hospitality. Everyone I encountered was just wonderful. From initial check in, to the other young lady that collected my clipboard and confirmed apt details would be sent to banfield, to the angel who brought Simbatu out

The staff are phenomenal! They express such concern and care for your furbabies! I brought my pug in here after I received him from a family who no longer wanted him. He’d been neglected and has so many skin issues. The vet Dr. Hinkle was so confident and Bernie felt so comfortable with her.. he cried when she left the room. They took care of him and now he’s so much happier!!!! I would recommend this office to all my friends!!! We are coming back in 2 weeks and I can tell you … Bernie is already excited 🤣😊🐾🐶

In a pet crisis it is unbelievably comforting to have such a professional, upbeat team available after hours. The building was very nicely decorated, well lit, fully staffed, clean with spacious seating. All followed covid rules and disinfection. All procedures were fully discussed with accurate written estimate provided. will go again if needed

This place is awesome. They got my dog in very quickly when he became very sick on a Sunday. Their urgent care service was amazing, and my dog was quickly hospitalized and their high quality care kept him alive. Their advanced diagnostics quickly diagnosed him with an intestinal foreign body, and they were able to get him in immediately for emergency surgery. Their quality of care is fantastic, and they communicated quickly and clearly through the whole process. Thanks to the vets and staff there, my dog is still here today. Highly recommend!!

The entire experience is professional and of the highest quality in every aspect. My dog is not an easy guy to work with and the entire staff as well as the doctor take a calm, supportive and positive approach with him. I highly recommend this practice. We travel a far distance for this level of care

I have nothing but great things to say about this place. My dog broke her nail pretty much down to the root. She wasn't putting any pressure on her foot and you could tell she was in pain. I called 9 different emergency rooms since it was Labor Day weekend. There was either super long waits between 8-9 hrs without a guaranteed visit from a vet or they were closed. FINALLY I got in touch with this place and they told me to come in and they would see her. The front desk was amazing and super helpful the doctor was great! No nice and informative! She was in and out within two hours and was feeling

We had to take our cat "Sweetie" into Urgent Care at Bennett Creek over the holiday weekend with a sudden illness. This was our first visit and we were so impressed by the kindness and professional care of the staff. The hospital was clean, well organized, and our wait was not long before "Sweetie" was seen. Dr. Hinkle was gentle and reassuring… to our shy kitty who appreciated the way she was treated. We did, too! All of our questions were answered and the staff alleviated our anxiety. The bill was about half of what we would have paid at our current vet or VRA. We are considering transferring

Emergency visit on a Sunday for injured cat - they were faster than expected in examining, evaluating and prescribing meds for my cat. One day later, the cat is much better. Clean, up to date facilities, pleasant staff, doctor took time to explain and vet techs were good with my cat and professional.

We've been taking our pup here for a few years. The facility is lovely, staff are very kind and they've always been able to get us in for same day emergency appointments. Dr Deans is warm and personable and clearly loves our dog. She's helped us navigate some health issues in a non-invasive way, and I trust her opinion.

However, we've had some unpleasant experiences with Dr Walcoff. He's not nearly as friendly or enthusiastic towards our dog, and I feel like he is constantly suggesting pricey procedures that may not be necessary. He doesn't explain things well at

I took my egg bound chicken today and Dr. Hinkle was wonderful! I do my homework with my animals so it’s important to me to have a vet who helps me understand what’s going on every step of the way. Reasonable fees and I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome! Hoping my flock is healthy but if I need a vet, I’ll definitely be back here!

I've been taking my precious German Shepherds to Dr. Walcoff for ~20 years. We knew immediately in an emergency or urgent care situation, upon searching for over a year for a vet we liked, that Dr. Walcoff would take good care of our dogs, when he dropped everything to perform emergency surgery on our dog, while were not yet a client, due to bloat. He has consistently been reliable and knowledgeable on many health situations our pups have had over the years. He recommends various services and gives us the pros and cons of the services, and helps us to make the right decisions for our dogs

I absolutely love this place! Both Dr. Waldorf and Dr. Deans are awesome!! The staff is caring and attentive. The doctors call to check up on your pets after they have been treated. Are they a little pricey??, yes maybe but WELL worth it!!
I don't understand the negative reviews, I've been going there for almost 2 years and have seen both doctors and have been treated with kindness and respect, something you have to give to receive. I definitely recommend Bennett Creek to anyone who is serious about their pets (fur babies) care.

I live a block away from this vet so it is super convenient, however, the trend has always been "we want your money". We started going to see him in around 2006 with our now deceased dog. We now have a puppy and have only brought him in two or three times.

For one of his first visits, the puppy was brought in because he ate my wife's hair scrunchie. Of course I was on a business trip, so he got her to pay for all sorts of things. He said the dog had parasites and a sensitive stomach and prescribed all sorts of medicines and special food. He said the dog would need special food
