I cannot speak highly enough about this Vet Hospital. They are truly the best. My 17-year-old cat was sick and I took him to four different vets but no one could figure out what was wrong. Dr. Walker was friendly and spent a lot of time with me asking questions about him to determine how to test and treat his illness. She and her team discovered a tumor no one else had noticed and while it was terminal, they were beyond kind and gracious. They always talked through all my options, gave realistic advice, supported my choices, and gave my cat the best treatment I could have asked for. When I had to put him down Dr. Walker let me bring my family into the room, gave me as much time as I wanted and let me hold him for the procedure. They even sent a signed condolence letter in the mail from the entire office. On top of their excellent service, their office itself is clean, well managed, has good reading material and free snacks. The office hours are great and having been to a number of different places in DC I can say with confidence that their prices are very reasonable. I have since gotten a new kitten and of course the only place I want her to go is District Vet. Again, the entire team is amazing and absolutely worth your time and money.

Dr. Teich is one of the most gifted veterinarians I have ever met and I strongly recommend him to all pet owners in the DC area. I had the fortune of having him care for my dog for the first time three years ago, and since then both my dog and I have looked forward to visits to his office. Within minutes of first meeting my dog, Dr. Teich sat on the floor with him and took as much time as necessary to calm my anxious German Shepherd before proceeding with the checkup procedures. I advised him that my dog was adopted from a local rescue and was particularly sensitive about examinations of his hind quarters. Instead of suggesting a muzzle, Dr. Teich adopted for an approach to build a bond with my dog, and the trust my dog exhibited toward Dr. Teich was rarely witnessed with other veterinarians. Dr. Teich is truly gifted and has an uncanny ability to put dogs at ease so that they trust him and feel comfortable in his care. Dr. Teich gives freely of his own time and has always been extremely responsive to phonecalls and emails. Pet owners in DC are extremely fortunate to have someone of his caliber looking after their beloved family members.

Although going to the vet is never a fun or inexpensive experience, District Vet has made it an enjoyable experience for us. Our dog, Fonzi, is always getting sick or injured, so we have had a more than an affordable number of visits in the past two or three years. Each time we visit, we are greeted in, and a doctor quickly meets for our appointments with little or no waiting room time. Every doctor I have met (three so far) has been very friendly and knowledgeable. I have never second guessed their opinions or thought they were trying to upsell me, and I can tell they have a grave concern for our pet. District Vet seems to handle most situations that are not emergencies but I have called in an emergency, and they gave us sound advice and recommended us to visit a nearby, and trusted 24-hour vet. Our Fonzi is still alive and doing very well and I have no doubt that District Vet is responsible for his good health. Thank you!

Dr Dan and Jennifer were awesome-- it was so great to have them come to our house and check out our two cats, Ben and Zeina. They got to see them in their home environment and helped us with a number of questions we had. Weve had the female for 10 years and the male for 2 years. We have to keep them separated because the male always tries to attack the female. We talked through a number of possibilities and decided to try a prescribed application to their ears for 60 days. I was impressed with how Dr. Dan and Jennifer work together and how well equipped and well prepared they were when they arrived. I think their rate was reasonable too. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM AND PLAN TO GO SEE THEM NEXT TIME.

I was recommended to Dr. Teich by a friend whos a vet tech at a different area animal hospital and he definitely lives up the the good word my friend put in for him. I took my dog to District Vet for the first time today and was very happy with the experience. Dr. Teich is knowledgeable, friendly, and took the time to make Lyra comfortable in the office. The whole staff really cares about the animals who come in their doors. I didnt feel rushed and I didnt feel like I was sold anything unnecessary or overpriced. I will definitely continue to go back for all future vet visits.

Absolutely love this practice!! The staff is amazing and extremely caring! Had an emergency with my cat. I called them before they opened to see if I could get an appointment. They called me back as soon as someone was in the office, and I was there within 20 minutes of them calling me. Dr. Dan explained everything that was going on, and I never felt like I was being left out. They have a parking lot, and they are walking distance to the metro. I absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a vet in DC!

I first met Dr. Dan Teich many years ago when I brought my two dogs to him while he worked at another clinic, and I have seen him in action many times. I appreciate that he takes the time to get to know the pets as well their human companions. He truly listens and cares about all of his clients, and he doesnt rush through issues just to get on to the next patient. I am glad that he has moved into his own practice, and still take my dogs to him to this day. I honestly could not recommend him enough.

The staff at District Vet are kind, warm and sharp. Dr. Teich will spend the time during an appointment to get to know your dog and any issues it may be having, and the appointment doesnt have the rushed feeling like it does at other vets. Dr. Teich was also able to correctly treat my dogs eye condition on his first try where 4 other vets before him had failed.

Dr. Teich and his team take amazing care of my dog! We never feel rushed during an appointment, and my dog gets the individual care that he needs. He is not an easy patient at all, but Dr. Teich has kept him healthy and happy over the years. The new hospital is stunning and spacious, and parking is super easy too. I cant recommend District Vet enough!

Dr. Teich is AMAZING!!! He is incredibly brilliant and kind. He is able to diagnose problems when other vets could not. He made our visit well worth the hour-long drive in DC traffic! Im so happy that he is treating my furbaby. Looking forward to our next visit.

Took my senior cat in to get a cough checked on. I found it to be a clean, comfortable office with very friendly and helpful staff and vet techs. Doctor Walker was very warm and knowledgeable. This is definitely going to be my DC vet office from now on.
