I have been taking my dog to Dr. Short for over 8 years. Great guy, caring and their prices are reasonable / unlike many others in town. I highly recommend him.

I have had animals my entire life and truly have never been as disappointed as I am with this vet. We took one of our cats in because we suspected he had bladder crystals and it turns out he did. We brought the vet a urine sample and he showed it to me under the microscope. It was all going well until he told us that we had to put both our cats on a prescription diet. We feed our cats very high quality wet food because one of them is very picky. The vet told us we had to buy dry kibble from him and could no longer give our cats the other food. He also prescribed an antibiotic to help with the stones, which we gave to our cat, no problem. However, after a week of our cats not eating the new food, I called and had them give us a prescription wet food, which they didn't eat. We contacted our old vet in Virginia and they advised us to try a different brand of food but they couldn't send in a prescription since they hadn't seen our cat for this issue. So on Chewy, I ordered the food and was waiting and waiting for the vet to approve it but they never did. So I called, and to my surprise, they just denied the prescription (without contacting me) because the vet "didn't know anything about that food." I was shocked! I told them our cats hadn't eaten in over a month, and when they did eat, they'd just throw the food up. They were visibly losing weight. THEN, when I asked to have our records emailed to us because we were no longer going to be giving them our business, they said they don't have internet hooked up in their building so they couldn't send us our records. Very strange that 1) the vet wouldn't do research on this food to try and help our cats after we paid them over $300 and 2) that they don't have internet. In 2022. I wouldn't recommend this vet to anyone. Check out Chevy Chase vet in Lexington if you're looking for a new vet. They are FANTASTIC!
