  First, I want to say that I have been taking my dog to another Bond Vet location for years and I love the company as a whole, never having anything but great experiences at the Logan Circle, Bethesda, Capitol Hill, and Arlington locations. My dog has a number of medical issues which I have been managing for years and I regularly bring her in for different tests and treatments. I started going to the Cathedral Heights location 4 months ago because it is much closer to my home. The receptionists and nurses are lovely, however, I will not be returning after a recent experience. When I switched over to this location 4 months ago, the vet required a full med exam on my dog before she would be willing to continue prescribing her ongoing treatments, all long term and very common. I understood, we had the appointment and I have brought my dog in 2 additional times in the last 3 months. Last week the pet pharmacy I use reached out to them for a refill authorization for one of her long term medications which my dog has been on for a year. After they reached out 4 times over several days with no response I called the Cathedral Heights location to ask them to respond since my dogs meds are running out and I want to avoid a lapse. Hours later I received a message from the vet saying that she would not renew the rx without first taking my dogs blood pressure which she said needed to be monitored every 6 months, (for which I would need to make an appointment, meaning $100+ to take her blood pressure). I asked why I hadn’t been told that since starting the medication a year ago and, more importantly, why her blood pressure hadn’t been taken in the first appointment 4 months ago or the following 2 visits, including one last week, given the meds she was on. I explained that her meds are running out in a day and asked if they could at least renew a short term rx so she wouldn’t have a lapse in treatment until I could bring her in again. The vet said she was unwilling to do this for even a week while waiting for an appointment. At this point I was extremely frustrated and called one of her old vets for their opinion. They confirmed that what the Cathedral Heights vet was asking for was not standard or necessary. The old vet went on to arrange a week long supply of her meds so that she won’t miss any days in the short term and are taking care of her rx refill. I do not know if the Cathedral Heights location is overly cautious and inefficient or purposefully inflexible and requiring unnecessary medical tests to bring in more money, but I will not be returning. I would recommend Bond Vet to everyone, with the exception of this location.

  It's newly opened and clean and visited because it's close to home. But they don't have any skills with handling cats. I had to hold the cat even when they weighed cat. The nurse was just looking from the side. How do I know the exact weight of the cat? Also, the doctor didn't even look at the teeth and had to hold it by me throughout the clinic. They only did blood tests. Also, they didn't cut the cat's nails and didn't do urine tests. They gave me the medicine and told me to come within 30 days so I wouldn't be able to pay extra, but I couldn't visit again because I couldn't take the medicine. Also, they couldn't get through the phone I paid over a thousand dollars for the test, but the test was only blood tests and vaccines Also, the another clinic I was visiting in the past, they cut the cat's nails and did all the blood and urine tests right away. I don't think there's a professional who can do that for a cat to visit here. I wasted time and money. I won't visit again
