Kingsview Animal Hospital Alexandria, Maryland

Love the cozy vibes here. I always tell people it’s like going to a bright therapist’s office. My cat has never been calmer at a vet’s clinic before. The staff is wonderful, from the receptionists to the technicians to the doctors. They always take some time to make sure your pet is comfortable with them at the onset of appointment. Dr. Minger is so kind-hearted — you can tell he truly cares for the animals and is passionate about his work.

We are new clients of Kingsview Animal Hospital, and could not be happier. On our visit with our cat, we encountered, a clean, modern clinic, helpful, knowledgeable staff, and a veterinarian, Dr. Monger, who took time to exam and diagnose our kitten. The attached photo demonstrates how comfortable she was while we were there.

Been taking my two dogs to Kingsview for 2 years. Dr. Thorndkye and the staff are phenomenal. Can't say enough good things about their professionalism and the level of care they give my dogs.

Nor is the best vet tech for your dog’s nail trim! She is so calm, and does a fabulous job. My dog’s nails were nice and short, but not too far. We always have a great encounter every time we go to Kingsview Animal Hospital! Highly recommend

Excellent job and very nice staff

Dropped off an injured bird. The people seemed super nice.

Very caring and friendly place.

Kingsview is the best vet I have ever used. They are very considerate and have helped us through several issues with our dogs. They are always willing to talk through concerns on the phone and give excellent and thorough advice and care. They seem very fairly priced as well. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for an excellent quality vet!

This is a state of the art Animals Hospitals with wonderful Veterinarians. I highly recommend and trust my fur babies to Dr. Thorndike and Dr. Grim.

Look no further for a vet!! Spotless, very nice staff.

I love Kingsview and so does our dog! The office is nice and clean, and the staff is always amazing! I highly recommend Kingsview Animal Hospital for any Vet needs.

Very caring and attentive doctors and staff. I (and my pups) appreciate Kingsview so much.

Always the best team care for my babies Jilly and Jackson.

They are always so kind. Their love of animals always shows through. The take the time to ensure you understand everything you need to.

I really wanted to like this place. I gave them a lot of chances. I will say the times I did deal with them they seemed to deal with my 10 year old shih tzu very well. The reason for the poor review is due to their lack of professionalism after I scheduled a dental cleaning for her. I was told to get her blood work done within 30 days of the anesthesia. I had the bloodwork completed and scheduled the appointment within the 30 days. They cancelled her appointment THREE (3) times. Each time the appointment was cancelled the day before (with little to no notice because drop off is 8 AM). I kept rescheduling her appointment even though they kept moving it a month out every time. She had her blood work in October and the last appointment they cancelled was in January. So not only did they waste my money (with bloodwork that had to be redone later), my time (I kept having to change my day off due to the rescheduling) but it also showed they really don’t follow best practice when it comes to care. You can’t tell me to have blood work done within 30 days but then say it’s ok to use bloodwork from two months ago. They are extremely unprofessional. I work in healthcare during a pandemic too and I can understand having to reschedule once maybe twice. But having to reschedule 3 times, with poor notice, and not following best practice for the safety of my dog is beyond me. I ended up taking her to a different clinic that did not give me half the hassle. It’s a shame because I live two minutes from this clinic but I’d rather drive the 20 minutes to make sure I am getting the best service.

I cannot say enough good things about Kingsview. I have been bringing my dog Koda to them since I adopted her in 2017 and they have always been there for us. Koda has had increasing health issues this past year and we've had a lot of appointments. Kingsview did everything they could to figure out the issues, and eventually referred us (and sent all of Koda's records) to VCA Southpaws, where Koda was diagnosed with Addison's disease by the Southpaws internal medicine department. I trust Kingsview 100%, they are the main reason I was able to get Koda's diagnosis, especially Dr. Grim who has seen Koda several times this year. Often dogs with Addison's end up very sick before getting diagnosed, but because of Kingsview we were able to get Koda diagnosed before her condition became severe. Additionally, Koda has some separation anxiety and the car appointments have been very hard for her, she HATES going inside without me. Dr. Grim and the vet techs have been incredibly accommodating and understanding of this and they have all taken steps to make appointments as easy for Koda as possible. Dr. Grim is compassionate, efficient, and knowledgable. She is easy to talk to and does a great job of communicating the veterinary info in a way that is easy to understand. All of the Kingsview staff are amazing and I appreciate everyone there SO much. (Bonus: picture of my adorable Koda, who is happy and much healthier now thanks to Kingsview!)

Curb service is great. Very professional and responsive.

Everyone here is great with pets, patient with owners, and very knowledgeable. My dog wags when she realizes she's going to see the vet.

Dr. Thorndike provides trustworthy and highly personalized care. She is outwardly loving, reliable, and responsive. The team at Kingsview Animal Hospital works in collaboration with her to ensure a compassionate experience for both the pet and owner.

We love this place. They take very good care of our baby and are genuinely concerned about their well being.

The team at Kingsview always take such great care of my dog.

Incredible experience and vip attention thank you to Sara who take care of my baby dog all the time

Dr was great. The tech and secretory was horrible.

They are great! They are willing to have a two way discussion with you about the pros and cons of different vaccines, flea & tick treatments, and heartworm treatments based on your pets lifestyle and health. They give lots of treats and praise and get on your pets level vs. putting them on the scary exam table. It is a great independent vet office. It's hard to find independent vets these days. VCA and Bandfield clinics are both owned by Mars Corp. and tend to push medicines and dog/cat foods that Mars Corp makes.

Super friendly staff. Great "bedside" manner. I'd highly recommend them!! Bonus points, Bunker (my puppy) loves them.

I think Dr. Fowler is a fantastic vet. She diagnosed my dog with osteosarcoma but worked with me to develop a plan of action instead of just giving up as another vet had done. If it had not been for her compassion and support, I might have given up. I would choose no one else. My dog is still alive a year later.

Kingsview Animal Hospital is the best of the best. Excellent plus. Since 1994, Dr. Hart and his loyal and devoted staff have personally taken care of our 3 wonderful golden retrievers; Sir Bozworth, Sir Finnegan and now our 10 month old Sir Alexander (Alex). Your pet will always feel special and you know they will be well cared for in many ways. They show concern when you are upset or need immediate help. They will always try to make sure you get an appointment if your pet is not well. And of course, if your pet needs more types of alternative care because of cancer or other types of specific issues, they will make sure you are referred to the best. Denise has been with Dr. Hart since we started going to him and she is a life saver. She is fantastic! Honestly, the entire staff is way above average. Dr. Grimm is excellent as well. She has also been a part of Sir Finnegan and Sir Alex's care. If you have a question, the staff are all well educated and can help you. I could go on and on but if you are looking for a family-friendly and well educated place to take youur pet. This is the place. I am not one to complain about a 15 minute wait. If I know my pet is going to be well taken care of - I will wait because I know what kind of care will be taken with my Golden. Plus, I rarely have to wait. I highly recommend Kingsview Animal Hospital.

Dr. Yokota and the staff are very pleasant and easy to talk to. The office is modern, clean and has a good atmosphere. Dr. Yokota always tries to stay within my budget, while giving my Bacon the best treatment. She always discusses options and why she recommends one over another. Office visits are a little pricey, but I feel I've gotten expert care since my dog became a patient. I love coming here and so does my dog Bacon!

An impressive sensitivity to the needs of our dog and a very thorough walkthrough of all options and best practices to improve and maintain our dog's health.

Good vets. Always takes the time to explain everything. Appoints are on-time and no wasted time waiting. They also care for the animals they're treating.
