Reviews of Lynn Animal Hospital (Veterinarian)

Ernesto Perdomo

Excellent and caring attention. Love the sweet vibe. For this You will pay $. Everyone is very nice.

Judith Arbacher

Everyone there is knowledgeable and caring, from the administrative staff to the medical staff. I left another vet practice and have been thrilled with Lynns. I look forward to trusting them with my dog's care for many years to come.

ANITA Woodland

Love the staff!

honeymother

Never again. May be fine with well vet checks but don't go in with an issue. Over the top expensive and extremely slow at follow-up and treatment. Not acceptable.

Andrew Ninnemann

Caring animal hospital with talented staff. They make my large dog feel comfortable at every visit.

Chris Kaltsas

My experience at Lynn has been great so far. Our cat, Tessa, has had a rough couple of months, and Dr. Frost has been great at working with us to figure out what's going with her. The pricing is also fair, and the assistants and receptionists are all friendly and easy to work with. Their rewards program is excellent too!

Sarah Fischer

Very helpful, professional, and caring staff. Very accommodating to get patients in when last minute health issues come up, i.e. a respitory infection w my cat. My kitty is seen by Dr. Stancliff-Lubow and she's great. Thank you Lynn Animal hospital.

Rosemary Kolesar

I have brought dogs here for over twenty years. The vets and support staff are attentive and efficient. Get the Pet Desk app for scheduling appointments!

Jennifer Hinchey

They are great. Dr. Freed is amazing and kind. They staff are very caring and the don't try to gouge your unnecessary treatment.

Joseph O'Mahone

We have been going here for nearly two decades and through half a dozen family dogs. So lucky to have found them, Doctor Carman is a fantastic human being.

Kristi

Our pets have had excellent care here. We have not had to wait too long, and we get sufficient time with the vets to ensure we understand everything.

We have taken our beagles there for over 30 years and have always appreciated the great care amour dogs received. One of our not so healthy dogs thought of Lynn as his home away from home!

Celia Menendez

We just started to take our beagle mix to Lynns Animals Hospital . I must say they have been very wonderful to us and our dog . The front desk people tend to be rude but every tech has been amazing . We have seen Dr.Frost love her she is compassionate and knowledgeable . Thank Lynn Animals Hospital for taking care of our fur baby !!

Linda Verrill

I have been using Lynn Animal Hospital for 16 years and have been completely happy with the level of care my 3 cats and 2 dogs receive there.

Yoga Space

Great Vets, great staff, will always use this animal hospital.

Aaron Lipford

It's always a wait when we get there, even with a appointment & it seems the prices has went up. Alittle expensive now.

David Harwell

The doctors and staff at Lynn Animal Hospital are very knowledgeable and caring. I wouldn't take my fury friends anywhere else.

julie wolf

Lynn animal hospital has been our vet since we moved here 13 years ago. Dr. Carman takes the time to explain what's going on, and go through options, costs, etc. He extended and improved the quality of our 17 year old cat's life (hyperthyroid, heart problems, and a painful blood clot) through attentive fine-tuning of meds, even finding a source for topical thyroid meds when the pills wouldn't go down anymore. And while it was expensive, upon his recommendation we had him remove 9 broken teeth (!) from our younger ex-feral when he first adopted us, with great results (eliminated bad breath and pain, much happier and more social cat). highly recommend.

Clarissa Melkonian

Best vet in Maryland!

Sarah McFarland

Dr. Carman always listens carefully and shows that he truly cares about our dog. She is an important member of our family and I am so glad that we have found a vet that treats her as one! He goes over multiple options with us and then makes his recommendation for the best one. His calm manor works very well with our hyperactive dog!

Iris McTaggart

It's sad to give Lynn animal hospital a one star review after the experience I went through. In the past they had great staff and great vets and would keep their doors open after hours when needed to care for an injured animal. Sadly this is not the case any more. This afternoon I called 15 minutes before closing to ask if I could bring a critically injured animal to them. The lady on the phone replied "We're only open another 15 minuets. No"I was horrified upon hearing this even though I live 5 minutes away from them. She asked no questions and made no suggestions to help us. It took us several hours to find the animal help and by that time, it was sadly too late. I miss the caring kindness we experienced in the past at Lynn. It is sad and disappointing to see the change now.

lawson l

If I could go higher in raitings I would. Dr. Carmen & staff really and truly are like family. With 4 pets that we've loyally taken to him for over 15 yrs says alot. They really get involved as if it were their fur baby. Gail the "JANE OF ALL TRADES IS GODDESS" she will make sure tour babies are cared for and hugged ..alot!

Tom France

Been taking our fur babies here for over 15 years and they are great. Will always keep coming back as long as they are around.

Tammie Rinker

Great staff, especially good with my anxious dog.

Cherie Siebert

We've seen Dr Carmen at Lynn with all of our animal friends for at least 15 years. We've received the best care every single time, caring and expert. Couldn't possibly be better.

Michael Black

Great experience with the vet but was badly misled about using our pet insurance plan. As a result, we will not return because of the malfeasance and unprofessionalism of the staff. We left our old vet because we had purchased a pet insurance plan (Pet Assure) that the old vet did not take. After calling several local vets, we were told by Lynn Animal Hospital that they took this plan. I called ahead of time to make sure that they did. I asked again when we came in. And I asked a third time when I paid. When it came time to be reimbursed they then informed me that they did NOT take the plan. Making the entire matter more unpleasant, when I called about this matter after the visit, the front desk person said she would speak to the office manager and get back to me. Didn't happen. After waiting a week to hear from them, I called them back. The office manager answered the phone and immediately knew who I was. She offered no apology for not calling back and made it very clear that they never had taken Pet Assure and were not going to offer any kind of consideration, even though I was clear why we had come to them, that I had specifically asked about this and they had explicitly told me they used Pet Assure. You can see from other ratings that Lynn is well thought of and, as I stated at the beginning, our experience with the vet herself was very good. However, this experience with the staff left a bitter taste from beginning to end. Staff clearly told us our insurance would be accepted. We left our old vet, who we liked very much, because of that representation. And we found the office manager to be quite unsympathetic and adamant that they had made no mistakes. It was a real, "Sorry Charlie" attitude. Thanks so much, Lynn Animal Hospital for the professional treatment.

Lydia Prentiss

Love these folks. They take great care of my doggies. Great to have doctors and techs you can trust.

Marc

Lynn is great, Dr. Carman is always helpful, and so far I've always been satisfied with the amount charged for various services and drugs/food.

David Frost

Took good care of our dogs and cat.

Mary A Czan

Called with a broken nail for my dog and he was in a lot of pain they were able to get him in right away and take care of his general health at same time!!!! Thanks so much to the staff they were so nice and Dr Carman. MugZ is back to chasing squirrels out of our garden!

Karen Vartan

Lynn is a little place but it has great staff and has gotten better over the last 2 years. Prices are more reasonable than most other animal hospitals. They are definitely trying harder than other places to keep the loyalty of their clients.

Jonathan Morris

We've been bringing our dogs here for years. Dr. Carman is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and nice too. So glad they're in the neighborhood.

Lisa Haileab

I have to truly say that I am BEYOND impressed with the care and love my dog receives at Lynn Animal Hospital. I have had my puppy since he was 8 weeks old. The doctors, techs and staff have been incredible in providing him optimal care. He is now a year old and was neutered by Dr. Frost. She is diligent, highly skilled and extremely kind. My puppy is recovering very well. Prior to the surgery, I was called by one of the staff members to remind me of his appointment. She helped ease my anxiety about the procedure and answered my questions. Ace has been seen by every doctor there, and they're all wonderful. The prices are excellent! The staff at Lynn Animal Hospital are a blessing to my sweet pup and family!

Niloofar Zafari

I am changing my review from a year ago. This place is very expensive. . And they assured us they would email us records of our dogs vaccinations. NEVER did. Therefore they delayed our lease process, wasted 1 day that 3 people took off of work and never answered their phone when we tried to get the records back.

Justin Brower

I can't speak more highly of the staff at Lynn Animal Hospital. On June 8th, my wife and I adopted an 8 week old kitten named Jade. From the first visit, we were thrilled with the level of communication from the staff. Everyone was friendly, and Dr. Carman walked us through the necessary schedule of vaccinations for kittens. He prescribed an antibiotic and some eye ointment to clear up an upper respiratory infection and conjunctivitis that Jade had contracted prior to us adopting her. I wish I could say that thing turned out in the long run, but on June 18th, we woke up to find Jade very ill. We rushed her to Lynn Animal Hospital and into the care of Dr. Stancliff-Lubow. Jade was quickly diagnosed with FIP, and we ended up putting her to sleep shortly thereafter. Despite how it turned out, I am incredibly impressed by the experience we had with Lynn Animal Hospital. The compassion and patience from the staff the morning we put Jade down was, in a word, incredible. I should note, that morning the staff arrived to find a burst pipe in their bathroom which had flooded a portion of the building. You wouldn't know it from the experience we had. We never felt rushed, and it was clear we were their priority. They made letting Jade go as easy as it could be under the circumstances. We knew we were making the right call. Today, I got the mail, and found a sympathy card from Dr. Stancliff-Lubow. I really don't have words for how much that meant to my wife and I. Needless to say, as long as we're living in the area, we will be going to Lynn Animal Hospital.

Michaela Tucker

Friendly people. They take good care of our furry friends and man's best friend

Cat Calvosa

I transferred to this vet from Banfield Pet Hospital, because I wasn't pleased with Banfieds lack of compassion toward their patients and how they just threw a stack of papers at me to read rather than explaining to me what was going on with my pet. Right away when I moved over to Lynn Animal Hospital I was please with the friendly attitude of the staff. They were very helpful and understood my concerns right away. I have 3 cats which are very nervous about Vet visits, but the doctors here made them feel safe and secure. They explained to me what was going on and were as gental as possible to my kitties. I highly recommend this Vet to anyone with pets.

Heaz Kissinger

We took our dog here tonight in an emergency. Everyone was so accommodating, friendly, caring, and wonderful. Rita behind the desk was wonderfully efficient and kind. Even the staff members who weren't directly working with our dog chatted with us amicably. It was fantastic. In the exam room, Dr. R and the vet techs were all very gentle, spoke in friendly and calm voices to my dog, and were incredibly knowledgeable. Their tableside manner towards my pup was perfect. Dr. R presented us with several options for treatment/plans, gave her opinion, and then allowed us to make our own decision on what to do. It was one of the best experiences I've ever had in any kind of medical setting. We've been normally going to another vet, but (unless we move out of the area) I think we're going to switch to Lynn for our regular checkups, etc. They are awesome! (Cross posted on Yelp, fyi)

James Sullivan

Staff is very knowledgeable and clearly passionate about their work, great with the animals, very friendly.

Linda Grizlby

T was like going to a bad mechanic. Made an appointment for 2 things, the female vet added on enough stuff to add up to over $700! Had to take my dog to a better vet. I do NOT recommend!

Bradley Lubow

It is a great facility. The doctors are top notch and have always had our pet's best interests at heart.

Norita Moreland

The vets are awesome as well as all the staff

I've been coming here for years. Lynn Animal Hospital has always been a very caring and professional animal hospital. It is obvious they care very much for animals and they deliver excellent care.

Veronica Hester

Staff is friendly

Peggy Yates

We have had difficult decisions to make lately at Lynn Animal Hospital. The staff and doctors have been wonderful! Dr. Frost especially gave great advice and heartfelt compassion. Our family is so very thankful for her and everyone else at Lynn!

Jimmie Ryan

It's a very good vet, however very expensive

Luke Edwards-Stuart

Great first experience

Luis F.

Great service and staff. I trust my dogs to them.

This review and rating is for Dr. shmidt. I had taken my cat to Lynn for 2+ years without complaint. When my cat's eye was injured by a wand toy when I was playing with him (ARGH!), I took my cat in (early Saturday morning). I was totally freaked out, and my husband accompanied me. Shmidt saw my cat for ten minutes, during which time he lost all credibility and his treatment of my cat fell below the minimum standard of care. First, after I told him exactly how the injury happened and when, shmidt wildly speculated with no rationale that the eye injury could have happened last night "or from prior injuries, I don't know." what? After showing us how to apply antibiotic ointment to the eye, he did not indicate how often to apply it. I had to expressly ask if 3 times a day was enough, and he said yes. My husband asked if it would be a problem that my cat has been rubbing his eye, and shmidt responded curtly, "well, he's going to rub his eye after you apply the medicine." That obviously did not answer the question. Then, shmidt looked at my cat's teeth and he smiled at me and said roguishly that he was making sure I didn't knock out any of my cat's teeth. What? And that was the end of the appt. it cost us $80. I got two other opinions from other vets, one from a recommended pet ER, and both said it was important to monitor the rubbing of the eye. One vet strongly encouraged the use of an Elizabethan collar to prevent rubbing, so we bought one and put it on my cat. My husband took my cat in again when lynn was open again (after the weekend) to be checked out by another vet at Lynn, and he had a completely different experience with Dr. Miller. Dr. Miller said we could apply the ointment every 3 hours, which is much more than the 3 times per day that shmidt said. Dr. Miller also gave my cat pain medicine, which shmidt had not even indicated was a possibility. She said it was important to monitor the rubbing of the eye in case it looked worse thereafter, which was something shmidt did not even consider. She was interested in my cat's well being and thorough. We were not charged for this visit. My cat's eye is healing wonderfully now, thank god. But I am afraid to speculate how things might have turned out if I had not consulted with 2 other vets and Dr. Miller. Shmidt has absolutely no business treating your pet. He acted with complete apathy for my cat's well being, and he showed a lack of competence and a lack thoroughness that is well below the minimum standard of care for a professional vet. I caution those who trust Lynn with your pets to ensure that shmidt is not the vet who has been assigned to your next appt.

Sally Maier

They squeezed my dog and I in at the last minute, and were very friendly, helpful, and quick.

Robert Slack

The staff at Lynn Animal Hospital are competent and caring, but they will nickle and dime you mercilessly. My dog needed two shots so he could be boarded and one of the shots required a two-week booster. They conducted an unnecessary "recheck examination" for the shot and the booster shot--he had just had his annual physical the month before--inflating the cost of the shots to nearly $200. I could have gotten these shots for $40 other places. So find out exactly what they plan on charging you for before agreeing to have any service performed. As an aside, when I complained about the absurd $200 bill for two shots I received a letter essentially implying that if I truly loved my dog I wouldn't bristle at paying through the teeth--and complained the vets made less than human medical practitioners, as if this unsurprising fact gives them license to gouge pet owners.

Darryl Calloway

Lynn Animal Hospital treats my animals with caring and compassion. It's good to have a place in the neighborhood that is professional and experienced.

Kenneth Leonard

Nobody loves the vet, but so far I have been pleased with the service and value

Tarr O'Connell

I love my vet. I've been seen by most of the doctors and theyve been conscientious and compassionate. They explain procedures and options and aren't rude or judgemental. I had to have my senior cat euthanized and I cried like a baby but Dr. Stancliff gave me the time and ability to be with my cat in the end and I really appreciated being able to have that.

Doris V. Richardson

I had a wonderful experience. I arrived early for my appointment and was taken immediately to see the doctor. I was in and out in under 20 minutes. You can't beat that experience.

Cinthia Rodriguez

Yummy love this place.

Sue Andrusko

Gold Star to everyone. First time meeting Dr. Frost. She was great with my Susie. I could not have asked for a better place to take my dog. Thank you, everyone for making us feel welcome.

Allie Doten

Dr. Christina Stancliff-Lubow and her entire staff were so accommodating, friendly, and empathetic. She talked me through every step of the visit and made sure my dog felt comfortable. The whole staff went above and beyond, fitting me in last minute and staying open an hour late to make sure my dog had the best treatment possible.

Yuri Kubota

Dr. Carman is very knowledgeable about guinea pigs. Meadow is getting better after giving her medicines for 4 days. She is still recovering, but looks much better. Thank you very much!

Jim Dearstine

Have been With them for 58+ years, They have always been there for us. Awsome !!!!

Bob Hunt

I trust them with the valuable part of my life

Carroll Thomas

They are fantastic! Midnight always enjoys being pampered at Lynn Hospital!!

Eloise Morrisey

I have been coming to Lynn for over 20 years. They are very caring and truly concerned about the health of Fur Babies. I only board there when I'm going away. Thank you for the excellent way you take care of Coco and Rocky.

prubin8

Great veterinarians, but staff are often uninformed and unreliable in terms of getting back to you to report test results. My cat and kittens had Bartonella, and I had to pull teeth and wait weeks to get the test results. During that time, my niece and nephew were exposed and interacted with the kittens.

bill carroll

They are good with dogs.

Erika Nizborski-Spencer

I’ve been taking all of my pets here for about 8 years now. Wonderful staff, great doctors, and convenient location. If your looking for compassionate and knowledgeable care in the Hyattsville or Riverdale Park area I highly recommend Lynn Animal Hospital!

cassie O

My Scrappy loves Dr Stancliff-Lubow!

Gabrielle Davis

I love bringing my 200lbs Cane Corso, Sheamus here! The staff and doctors treat him as if he were their own, and my family as if we are family too!! They are very knowledgeable and ready to answer any questions, are super friendly and helpful. Can't wait for his next appointment!!

Jonathan Cass

Overall a good experience. Helped diagnose a rare condition in my dog and get her back to good health. Easy to get appointments here. Removed a star because sometimes they are upsell heavy but that has gotten better.

Lindy Whetzel

Very caring staff and doctors. No long wait time - we would be lost without our folks at Lynn Animal Hospital!!!

Louis Tartaglia

Very nice and affordable

Jamie Gibson

Rebecca Frost

Great vet!

Terri Basile

Richard Irish

SMH... I can't think of anything to improve my experience. Rachael Frost and her support team represent the best.

Cathy Barks

Dr. Stancliff-Lubow is wonderful.

linda mager

I saw Dr. Carmen on feb 15 with my 5 year puffpuff a female guinea pig. He was wonderful Spent 1 hour and Bill was 96.00 Was shocked at how small bill was. I would highly recommend him to all. He was funny kind thoughtful and gentle. My baby has a chance please keep her in prayers.j

Tia Shearer

We have a cat who can be extremely tricky at the vet, and everyone at our recent visit was WONDERFUL with her. This was the calmest she has ever been at a check-up!

Kai Hudek

Friendly staff and great with our dog. Inexpensive as well.

Mechelle Myers

Caring helpful and knowledgeable. Dr Carman always takes the time to fully explain any condition or treatment. He truly cares and it shows. I have taken my furbabies to Lynn for the last 25 years, and will continue for all future furbabies.

Mary E. Collins Baugher

Dr. Carmen and the vet techs are wonderful. My dog is at ease going to the vet in no small part to the wonderful manner they have with the animals and the excellent compassionate care they give. They also give me all the information on treatment options without it being overwhelming.

Elise Christopher

Such nice staff - they take great care of our puppy

Dian Kelly Carroll

Good vets and staff.

Stivell Campbell

Good pet care and service

Rebecca Long

I was very impressed with the practice and with Dr. Frost. After my cat had a traumatizing experience the last time he was at the vet, I've been leery of trying to find a new one for him after moving to NE DC from Alexandria, VA, but my cat has been scratching one of his ears so badly that he broke skin over the weekend and I needed to get him seen. Lynn Animal Hospital took us in right before they closed on the Saturday, and Dr. Frost and the assistants were very helpful and kind. My cat is a typical cat, so doesn't like to be poked and prodded but they knew how to swaddle him in a towel and also knew when to let him calm down a bit before trying more. I'm very happy to have found a vet that knows what they're doing for my d*ck head cat.

Crystall Evans

Customer for 24 years. Dr. Carmen

Sarah Heitkemper

I love Lynn Animal Hospital! The doctors and staff are all caring and professional. My dogs actually love going to the vet!

Megan Toney

They are amazing!

Matthew Liptak

Good service. The doctor took time to explain everything, but with vets these days it sometimes feels as if they are half salesmen half doctor,

Pat Doyen

Love this place! Always helpful, and reasonably priced. My cat is very calm with them.

Janet Taylor

Excellent care for your pet. I've been taking my dog to Lynn Animal Hospital for five years. Dr. Carman always provides honest and sound advice. The facility is clean. They also have a good traffic flow to minimize pet to pet contact, if you pet is overeager/afraid of other pets.

Jaime Flores

Bring your pets for a great service .

Laura Atkinson

I’ve always got greattreatment for my dog here

Bryton Bode

Have been bringing in our two cats here for over two years now. An amazing staff. Very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Prices are very reasonable for the area. Wouldn't trust our pets to any other locations.

Mirna Hernandez

Son muy amables y muy cariñoso con las mascotas

Linda Jenkins

We have been with Dr Carmen and Lynn Animal Hospital for almost 30 years. Dr. Carmen has taken care of three of our Chow Chow’s and they can be a handful. Many Vets don’t want to deal with the Chow breed. But Dr. Carmen took care of Oscar who was a big (88) pounds and had a very unique personality, Barry who was a little better and now my baby Tony who probably has the best disposition. We love Dr. Carmen

Lisa Holt

The doctors get very detailed in explaining things to pet owners. The staff is always very helpful :)

Adrian Phelps

They really care about the well being of your pet!! Very compassionate and professional!!

Diana Schwarzmann

Lynn Animal Hospital is great! I recently switched from another vet and I'm so glad I did. They provide my pet (and me) with top rate treatment, and show that they care. They provide the type of service that pet owners expect and much more. So I can't think of any way they could have improved on my last experience.

Robert Dickson

Our dogs have received wonderful care from the vets here.

Michael Jones

Competent staff, friendly vets. Good for routine check-ups.

Mandy Lease

I love the staff at Lynn Animal hospital. They are always friendly and supportive. Dr. Frost is the best. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my cat Shadow's care and well being.

Cherly Adams

Very caring a patient staff. We lost a life long family, four legged one this week, and they did everything they could to make it the least stressful as they could. First, they did their best to correct the problem, and when it became apparent that was not going to happen, they assisted us in saying goodbye. I highly recommend them for their skill and for their empathy.

Stephen Decker

Friendly and great pet care.

Teena Huang

Friendly local neighborhood vet.

Sam Greenberg

Friendly and helpful.

John Campbell

The best veterinary cat in Riverdale & Hyattsville, bar none.
