We found Hayfield under the unfortunate circumstance of having to put our old girl down. During a pandemic, they made sure we were able to be with her in her final minutes and sent a sweet card with her ashes that contained her sweet nose print. Since, we've taken our dogs nowhere else. We love that the staff listens to us about our concerns, sometimes even offering advice over the phone before asking us to come in. They really are a gem location!

This place was great 12 months ago, and then quickly went down hill. I have a laundry list of poor service, but here are my main 3.
First, you cannot get through to them without calling a half dozen times. If you don’t allow people inside and they have to call when they arrive, plus people calling for other services, maybe train your reception to answer and put people on hold. Second, Dr. Segal was fantastic, then she suddenly left ( along with 3 other vets I was told) and now I think they are way understaffed or the remaining vets do not know what is going on. My German Shepard was “recommended”

Although the Doctors are great, I would recommend staying away from this hospital since it has a terrible customer service and vet assistant team. They are impatient, unprofessional, rude and really treated you like you were an inconvenience. This was the first place I went to with my new adopted puppy and they would really disregard all of my concerns, they were impersonal and made me concerned of how my puppy was being treated inside during tech visits. I did not feel supported nor cared for in this facility. I would recommend going elsewhere as will I from now on.

My Yukon goes here and they take great care of him. I personally love the curbside pick up and drop off, being a mom of 4. The vet calls be during eat visit and explains everything and answers all my questions. I highly recommend them!

This is a great place to take your pet for normal care. Dr. Embree has been amazing! She cared for my cat through the end of her life and my current two cats for years. Unfortunately, this week when one of my cats was facing the end of her life miscommunication in the office had me facing this tough decision at an emergency vet. I found the staff (not the actual Dr.) to be rather uncaring. I will be finding another practice - although if Dr. Embree were to move I would follow her.

Dr. Marciano is fantastic. I appreciate that she answers all of my thousands of (silly) questions thoroughly and honestly. I never feel like I'm being encouraged to do anything just for monetary reasons. It's obvious that she really enjoys what she does and cares about her patients. Their front office staff is also very kind and responsive. I've emailed a couple of times and they always respond really quickly. I'd definitely recommend this vet to anyone in the area.

Honestly they were good at first. For five years they took care of my cat and she was fine. Unfortunately this week I came back to get my dog I got just a couple weeks ago, and she’s limping. She wasn’t like that before, and they said “She was like that before, and we noticed it”. They never told us about this until we called them up about why my dog was limping so much. That’s where we got the “She was like that before”. I have reason to believe they might have dropped my dog while giving her a bath. Now I get that accidents happen, but they NEVER told us about this. With all this

I’m. Cece and my Mommy called 2 hrs ago to get a same day appt for a Bordetella vaccine. The lady answering the phone was great, told her to call when we got to the parking lot. I was in and out within 30mins and ready for my boarding in a few days. Love the gentleman who cared for me with the locks. Thanks for such prompt and convenient service. Love Cece

We were in transition and could not keep our chinnies in the hotel so we were able to board them here. Wonderful and friendly staff, they even sent us pics *see attached. And not many exotic vets around (on post only does cats and dogs) so we are also happy we have a vet near post!!! Thank you to the wonderful and friendly staff, especially to the gentleman who also has a chinchilla as well (sorry I forgot to write your name down)!!!!!

I breed ferrets, and many vets do not even see ferrets, plus many who do are not familiar with health problems that are related to breeding issues and intact ferrets.
One of my jills became very ill suddenly, and my usual ferret vet had recently retired, and so I found Hayfield Animal Hospital online. I called, for an appointment, and the first… opening they had was 48 hours away. But, they had one of their vets who treats ferrets filling in at one of their sister locations that evening, and were able to get me in there in a few hours.
Because the staff there were not trained in handling

We’ve been taking our dog, Rocky, here for about two years. They’ve always accommodated urgent and last minute visits. They’re busy but everyone is always wonderful.

I do recommend Hayfield Animal Hospital however don’t recommend Rebecca Goldstones, BVM&S. She was rude and condescending. I will return but I’ll never see her again.

The end-of-life care our family received at Hayfield Animal Hospital exceeded all expectations. Making the decision to say goodbye to our baby girl was nearly impossible. We were treated with kindness and… compassion the whole visit. They allow you all the time you need in the room with your babe, and give you a bell to ring when you’re ready for the doctor to come in. During your alone time they offer treats like jerky and peanut butter to make your pet’s final moments sweet and enjoyable. Another amazing kindness was the placing of a catheter in our pup’s leg, so the

Love it there! We just moved to Alexandria and needed a new animal hospital. Yelp gave them awesome reviews and we experienced the same treatment. Friendly, knowledgeable and everything you hope to get when you take your fur babies to the vet. 5 stars for sure!
