Potomac Animal Wellness Services

I am in LOVE with PAWS! My husband & I recently adopted a kitten found wandering our neighborhood. We haven't had a pet in a few years, after losing a beloved cat to kidney failure. I wanted to get Maggie checked out right away to make sure she was healthy since she came from the streets. PAWS gave me an appointment the SAME day I called when our former vet and other local places couldn't see us until weeks in the future. Dr. Parkin and the entire staff have been absolutely wonderful with us, giving excellent customer service, recommending and performing only essential treatment after fully explaining to me what and why they were doing so. The staff is also very friendly and seems to take personal interest in my pet. Costs are discussed upfront and they are understanding about my need to budget. Because I began our relationship with them during COVID times, I have not actually been inside the office to attest to their space, but I have been VERY impressed by their handling of business during the challenging times - their process is very seamless, efficient, timely and yet, still personal. I am looking forward to a long relationship with PAWS.

At PAWS, the staff and the Veterinarians are amazing. Since we have moved to Southern Maryland, they have become helpful & friendly neighbors. We trust them wholeheartedly with our four feline family members.

Always courteous and knowledgeable! You will NOT be judged! They do what they can and give it to you straight - not beating around the bush here! Easy and affordable! All prices will be given to you upfront so you know what to expect and you make the decision. They care about your pet and will always give suggestions, but the choice is always yours and nothing is forced upon you. It gets even better. This vet office is open on weekends! Which is literally a Godsend for people who have busy work weeks or even end up with an emergency on their hands during a weekend. All the vets here are caring and accommodating. 10+ stars.

Always greeted when you walk in the door. Generally they take you back to the room before or at your appointment time. Everything is explained, your animals are generally taken to the back for things like blood draws since they can take the appropriate steps to make sure your pet is the most comfortable as well as you. The vets examine your pets and explain all of their findings and any corrective actions necessary. They are kind and empathetic to your personal situation and quite honestly I totally trust them. They are up front with the costs of everything and don't force anything or make you feel uncomfortable in any way. While I doubt they are the least expensive vet out there, I firmly believe they are well worth every dime you pay. Oh and not to mention the place is always clean and the are open 7 days week.

I recently took my 2 dogs to PAWS and our experience could not have been better. They had their annual check-up, vaccines, some medicine for ear infections, and we were in and out in less than an hour . I would definitely recommend anyone searching for a new vet to visit PAWS.
