Dr. Ciampa is a fantastic vet. However the overall practice has gone way downhill. My pets have been clients of Kenwood for nearly 20 years. And I tend to be loyal by nature. I also really have liked working with Dr. Ciampa. Over the past few years, Kenwood has eliminated evening and Saturday morning hours. Prices are higher than anywhere else that I am aware of. When you call to make an appointment, it is not uncommon to sit on hold for 10-15 minutes. It is difficult to get a same day sick visit for your pet and if you do get one, you pay more. Can you imagine being charged more by your pediatrician when you make a same day, weekday sick visit appointment? Kind of crazy, right?

Our go-to vet. Dr. Dougherty and her staff are amazing, and made us and our dog feel right at home. We just moved back to the area and can't imagine going elsewhere for veterinary services!

While I've only crossed their threshold a half dozen times over a few years, so far, the prompt and attentive service is always there. The dog seems to enjoy the place too, which always surprises me given how and where he gets poked and prodded while in that building. They must do something right in that regard, and consistently so. Seems more of a dog office than one for cats, but I also didn't make a list.

Really loved this vet. I recently moved to the DC area and needed to find a new vet for my 10lb dog so she could have a regular checkup and get her annual vaccinations. They did have to call me to reschedule my original appointment because of availability of their vets, but the team was super kind and accommodating- they got me in sooner because of the reschedule, which was impressive. I came in for the visit yesterday, and while I was waiting in the waiting room, I noticed that a large poodle had been brought in for a quick surgery follow-up. Dr. Champa came out to check on the poodle, and immediately knelt down on the floor to be at the dog's level- this was so awesome to see! A vet who really gets IN THERE with their patients is super rare. The next thing I noticed was someone coming in to pick up their dog- the vet tech immediately came out to greet the owner and they actually seemed like old friends! This vet tech- named Rob- had an absolutely excellent way of communicating and connecting with everyone who came in - he helped with my appointment as well, and went above and beyond to make my lil dog feel comfortable. THANK YOU ROB! You are awesome! When it comes to my actual appointment, I left super happy. Dr. Champa spent 10 mins on the floor talking to my dog and giving her treats so she had less anxiety before her shots, and she went out of her way to inform me about the specific shots being administered, challenges I should look out for being new to DC (rabies, ticks, etc.), and even suggested a cheaper way to get heartworm prevention. Dr. Champa is one of the most thorough and knowledgeable vets I have ever come across - I didn't feel rushed during my appointment, and I felt like she truly had my pet's best interest at heart when recommending next steps. She also spent extra time answering my questions about the best way to clean my dog's teeth! I feel that Kenwood Animal Hospital is truly a great place for my pets. The staff is caring and they are also reasonably priced. Kenwood also has parking right out front, so that was easy too! Highly recommend this place and Dr. Champa!

Dr. Talbott has been great with my cats. One was very sick for a couple weeks and we had a very hard time figuring out what was going on and he required several ER visits. Dr. Talbott was quick to respond to my questions in email or with a phone call. I think one day I talked to her 3 times. She was amazing throughout the whole process and helped quell all my fears and and answer all my questions.

Kenwood is a fantastic vet. They are very caring for our dog and very knowledgeable when it comes to our dog. They are very informative with each visit, and the puppy plan ended up being a great option and price!! I would recommend anyone in the area take their dog to Kenwood, you will be very pleased.
