Reviews of Kentlands Veterinary Hospital (Veterinarian)

Anke Dannemann

If you're looking for a large group of caring vets, this is a great place for your domestic friend. They're not the cheapest place around, but they're really good and offer every service and shot necessary without going overboard and don't make you feel bad when you can't afford something expensive. We worked with several of their vets and is a family owned environment, with 2 generations practicing. With so many vets, you'll definitely find 1 who meets yours and your pets personality and that has the experience you're looking for and that meets your furry or feathered friends health needs. This is a place where my dog wags his tail when we arrive and after we leave.

I've been going to Kentlands Vet for the past two years and have had great experiences. I recently brought my dog in for a very peculiar digestive issue that I couldn't figure out and Dr. Stephanie figured it out within minutes of evaluating him. He's doing so much better now. Although I'm moving to Frederick in a month, I will continue to bring my dogs to Kentlands Vet instead of finding a local vet. It's worth the trip!

Elijah Kang

Best vet ever. Honest and affordable.

Vincent Comunale

Super nice staff and very detailed in their explanations, awesome vet!

April Febrey

The staff and doctors are wonderful! Our puppy is so happy every time we go there. And although it is in a strange location I never have a problem finding parking RIGHT in front. We couldn't be happier to bring our animals here.

Knowledgable people and caring.

My family has been going to Dr.Handel for 20+ years with all of our family dogs. He's extremely knowledgable and so patient with explaining all the options. We had to get knee surgery for our rescue pup and Dr.Handel took the time to explain her condition and all of our options which made us feel so much better.

Kelli Miller

We love this vet. Dr. Handel is fantastic and cares so much.

Jaime Prine

I have taken my pets to the Kentlands Veterinary Hospital for over 10 years. It's a very clean, friendly environment, they stick to the appointment times, and Dr. Dowdy and Dr. Handl are two of the most dedicated vets I've ever met. They genuinely care about the well being of the animals. They offer affordable treatment options and even make follow up phone calls (I've never met a vet who has done this before). I have recommended Kentlands Vet to all of my friends and every one of them has switched. I cannot recommend them enough. They have truly saved my pets lives.

As good as it

Great with our cat. Very helpful in prepping us for a successful RV trip with our kitty. Lots of helpful advice.

Last night, our 2 & 1/2 month old puppy had a paw accident which left her with with a broken/hanging nail/claw.Her being so young, we were still searching for a vet, so it caught us off guard when this accident happened. After calling around to a NUMBER of places, I’m soooooo happy that I came across this place! Not only did they agree to see Chanel on the same day, but they also made her first vet visit one to remember! They were extremely friendly and knew exactly what Chanel needed to keep her at ease as they removed the nail. Not only did we leave with a fixed claw/nail, but we also left knowing that we’ve found the PERFECT primary vet for our fur baby!

Marc Neilson

This is the nicest vet I have ever been to. Very clean exam rooms, super super friendly doctors, and a very well-run facility. My dog feels comfortable there as well, as everyone makes an effort to make him feel calm.

Laura Lianne

I have been taking my dogs, Petey and Lucy, to Kentlands for about 6 months. Both of them are agility dogs, and my older dog goes to Kentlands every week for underwater treadmill to help with conditioning for agility. My younger dog has had two injuries and has gone to Kentlands for rehab. Everyone is so friendly and they completely know what they are doing with rehabbing my dogs. I am so glad that I found this clinic!

Dr. Handel, Dr. Dowdy and the entire staff are fantastic. They truly care about your pets and will do anything to help them

Nicole

Great place with great people! Everyone that works in the office is very friendly and understanding. We've had a few issues needing same day service like bee stings and they took us within the hour. They usually have availability throughout the day for non emergency appointments as well. Have recommended to others and will continue to do so.

A. Thomas Grunley

Experienced doctors and a kind, helpful staff has made this our Veterinarian of choice since moving to the Kentlands. Highly recommended.

Robert Mann

Been taking our various pets here for years. All the vets and staff are attentive to both us, send our pets.

Jill Lane

Our beautiful cat named Gracie is a very happy and kind cat. We took her to this clinic because we had a coupon. The staff treated her so well, it was hard to stop her from purring on the exam table so they could check her vitals. She also got her rabies shot while there. Will go back and I highly recommend. We drove here from Rockville and would still go back. Its the doctor and the staff that make you feel comfortable.

Ahmad W. Hanif

My dog likes it here so we like it here

Kate Byrne

I have been using their services for years and can't say enough good things. They are kind, patient, and trustworthy. The staff and doctors go out of their way to explain everything that's going on and the options of treatment. They are the first vet I recommend to anyone who ask (or doesn't ask

Kate Hogan

Top notch! Jessica Lorey (rehab specialist) and Dr. Handel are absolutely among the best veterinary and rehab specialists with whom I have worked. My dogs are not necessarily the easiest to work with, particularly if you are accustomed to rehabbing disabled dogs. They both seem to understand/appreciate the power and intensity of my dogs and work with me to harness it in an intelligent, constructive manner. As a result, both of my dogs really enjoy going there and so do I :-)

Scott Fisher

We have been going to the Kentlands Veterinary for 7 years for our 2 cats they are friendly, honest and offer healthy alternatives for treatment of our animals. I would recommend them. Scott

Fontella Lynn Davis

Amazing staff and doctors, not going anywhere else after such an amazing experience

Blue-Eyed Kitty

Have been going there for years. They truly care about your animals and give great care, including tips to prevent future issues

Adria Lafferty

Awesome team! Dr. Handel actually spends time with you and answers any questions. They are not judgmental or pushy about anything at all. I have a sport dog and am doing therapy with Jess, she’s wonderful! Dr. Handel actually came and checked on my dog during therapy, which is something you just don’t see! Highly recommend!

Anna B

I like Dr. Handel but one of the receptionist is so rude, overall most of the staff are full of attitude, maybe is time to cleanup!!!

Daniel Norton

Been with his vet for over 10 years. Excellent vet and terrific staff.

Debra B

I hesitate to review this vet, because if more people knew how comprehensive, committed and kind the entire staff here are, they'd be totally swamped and getting an appointment would be impossible! This is the best clinic in Maryland. Dr. Handel is very active in the community - check the license of other vets and you'll see his signature on behalf of the State licensing board. They are also the go-to vet for the boarding kennel I use. Our pets have been patients here for years, and it seems most other local professionals in pet-related fields know and love this group. Please go elsewhere so things won't change!!!

I have a GSD that participates in the very physically demanding sport of Schutzhund/IPO. He had a grade I luxated patella that went undiagnosed for a very long time and as a result, his rear wasn't as strong as it could be and he struggled with jumping not only physically at times but also mentally. Neither the orthopedic vet or my vet suggested underwater treadmill (actually, the Ortho vet said it wouldn't do any good) or laser treatment, but at the advice of a friend, I decided to give Jessica Lorey a try. The consult was thorough and she explained exactly how underwater treadmill would improve my dog's condition and strengthen everything around the knee and in the rear along with why some initial laser treatments would help. She also took the time to explain how that physical improvement would effect my dog's mental confidence to then re-train jumping. She was correct on ALL accounts! She stayed interested in every part of his training progression and truly gets excited when he succeeds. She loves him and he loves her! we now don't have to concentrate on the knee, however, I am continuing with Jess. We go once a week and she has developed a program for total conditioning. She has strengthened his core and overall strength and endurance. The sport of Schutzhund/IPO is very demanding physically and I feel Jessica is the best investment I can make to keep my dog fit and to safeguard against injuries for the sport that he loves so much so! Thank you for your expertise Jess!!!

Do not take your guinea pig to them!!! My guinea pig stop eating hay and they said he was fine and might just being picky. I visited again one week later when he completely stopped eating or moving. What they suggested was just random exams and had no recommendation of what to do. They don't know how to diagnose or treat a guinea pig. Their suggestion is no better than google.

Vanessa Jones

Great quality people and place. Pricey.

Sonia Thiady

It’s been 13 years with them . They are amazing

Summer Brenwald

I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt that Dr. Handel and his team care as much about my furbaby as I do. They have done so much for me and my boxer, Apollo. He's been going to the Kentlands vet for about 5-6 years. I know pretty much all of the staff. I highly recommend Jess Lorey as a veterinary physical therapist. She has worked with Apollo through 3 different surgeries, ongoing PT/hydortherapy. This clinic is one of the best around. And, your furbaby will be in good hands.

David Levy

Great Veterinary practice. Know what they are doing and do it in a kind manner. Highly recommend!

Robyn Winstead

The staff here are all really friendly and understanding. My dog gets very skittish during vet visits and they went out of their way to both make her comfortable and give her a good association.

Przemek Klosowski

Took good care of our pup.

I have had experience with the rehab department of Kentlands for over two years. I cannot think of one negative thing to say about my experiences. As an experienced dog owner and one who has dogs who participate in performance dog sports (flyball, agility, etc) it is important to me that the care they receive is outstanding and up to date. I have been taking my dogs to Jess for both rehab (after ACL surgery) and conditioning for performance sports. The quality of care she provides is equal to or above all of the "top notch" rehab facilities I have visited in the DC Metro area (with the bonus being she is closer to me than the usual hour drive I used to take). She provides good diagnostics and personalized care to match each individualized dog's needs. She does not provide a cookie cutter approach to rehab and understands the importance of rehabbing and conditioning dogs at the level they are at so they can reach peak performance. Not to mention that after recent renovations the facility feels fresh and new. Lastly, I am forever grateful to this veterinary hospital for providing vet care to my sick dog (even though we had only been going to rehab there) in a life threatening emergency. The staff here goes "above and beyond"

Alan Nelson

Great Vet. Supports their local scout troop as well

Gabriela Philippon

The veterinarians here are fabulous. The staff are super welcoming and friendly all the time. My dog feels at ease and loves the attention... and that is what counts for me.

Great vet services, love the DVM's and staff
