Old Farm Veterinary Hospital

I have seen this vet multiple times for my dog and they are very comprehensive and professional. I also appreciate when they follow up after appointments for issues other than preventative health. Have recommended to friends numerous times.

Old Farm Veterinary Hopsital has amazing service and is pleasant to bring pets for checkups. The technicians and vet were incredibly nice and thorough with the visit. They also provide plenty of information on how to best care for your pet after a procedure or just for regular pet hygiene.

I have been taking my dogs here since I moved to Frederick about 9 months ago and the staff here go above and beyond for your furry love bugs! Dr. Wilson helped me make a sound decision for my pups knee issues without bias or judgment. I also board my pups here, and weather it's a day visit or over the weekend, they come out all smiles and tail wags! during extended stays they will even email me updates and pictures of how the pups are doing. Highly recommend!

It is pretty sad when one judgmental team member can taint the entire team of a practice… I never had a problem with Dr. Wilson or Dr. Hiltner at Old Farm, but I cannot say the same about Ms. DeLacey, their newest colleague. She decided (at our euthanasia appointment) that since I would not pay for more tests (or really, repeat the same tests I had just gotten done a few days prior at another vet that I was referred to by Old Farm- i.e. a urinalysis, physical exam, ultrasound of bladder and kidneys, and full bloodwork panel), she was not going to help me humanely end my dog’s suffering. So she refused, treating the whole situation like it was a moral dilemma involving an owner vouching for convenience euthanasia… nothing about the decision was for my convenience… My poor dog was suffering… she was a 13 year old, completely incontinent collie mix with symptoms of late-stage Cushing’s disease. Her quality of life had diminished… But in Kelley’s opinion after “seeing her in the exam room” (not even an exam, just a visual scan), she was not eligible for euthanasia… She (Kelley) believed my dog had a treatable condition (contrary to what the test results actually said, but I don’t believe she even looked at them) and so did not feel “comfortable” going forward with the euthanasia… Then, as if to add insult to injury, she said if money was the reason we weren’t going to repeat all the tests to find the same results, she would print out a list of local shelters and rescues for me that we could surrender our dog to… again, this is a geriatric, anxious 13 year old collie with a terminal illness and no control of her bladder or bowels… so we aren’t allowed to end her suffering in a kind, loving way surrounded by her family of 13 years, but it is okay, in fact recommended that we surrender her to the shelter where she can die alone and scared? Not to mention we sadly had to put our other senior dog down just 10 days prior… she was a 14 year old poodle that had trouble seeing, hearing, and walking… but we were not even questioned about that when we made the call… Dr. Wilson trusted me as her dog owner to know what was best and when I said her quality of life was very low, no tests were required, no “permission” was needed by the vet, I was shown endless compassion and understanding… so what was the difference? If anything, my collie was suffering far more physically and mentally than my poodle was… We thankfully found a vet who went above and beyond to help us that night when we were not even his client and helped us give our dog the respectful and kind goodbye she deserved… a little kindness and understanding goes a long way… There is a severe lack of consistency of care at this practice now and I cannot recommend it… I have had 14 years of positive experiences with Dr. Wilson and Dr. Hiltner, but how I was treated by Kelley DeLacey made an already gut-wrenching situation so much more traumatizing than it should have been, all because she had a preconceived idea about me and was upset that she was not going to make more money off my poor dog’s suffering… I felt as though I was on trial, attempting to convince my own vet through my tears that I was not an evil person or a bad dog owner, that I was doing what I really believed was best for her, but all I got in return was rejection and then told to surrender my dog to the shelter… would not wish that scenario on anyone…

We love Old Farm Veterinary Hospital and let me tell you why: 1) The entire office smells, looks and is very clean. 2) The office staff is friendly, knowledgeable and loving to all pets. 3) The doctors are all knowledgeable, caring, friendly and love their job of taking care of pets. Dr. Wilson did surgery on our puppy and he did an excellent job. Kudos to Dr. Wilson! 4) Their office is conveniently located with six day a week office hours. There is also plenty of parking and never a long wait on the inside. 5) They do boarding for their customers and take excellent care of all their "patrons." 6) This facility is always doing something in the Frederick community to help animals. 7) They are growing and added Dr. Darcey. She is wonderful. It's businesses like this that make Frederick a great place to live. BTW, this office does excellent grooming and awesome nail trims!
