The Cat Hospital of Fairfax Inc

Dr Bolton and her assistant was warm, gentle, professional and knowledgeable about my cats condition and needs. It was the best visit my cat experienced in his 19 year life time. If I need a gentle and qualified vet for Habeeb’s needs, I know exactly where to go 💗

Dr Brown and his team are exceptional. They kept me informed, responded in a timely fashion and respected my role in decision making. I am impressed and have full confidence in the care provided in both the Fairfax and Arlington locations. If you are looking for the best care for your cat, start and end your search here!

Overall, I was not impressed by the services of this establishment and felt like they were just trying to make a buck off my situation. While the staff was overall friendly, I felt they were more focused on making money. We had just moved to the area and my cat was not adjusting well to his new home. He was panting heavily, shaking, and not eating as much as usual. I told the vet I thought it was anxiety related but wanted a professional opinion. "Because of COVID," I was not allowed into the establishment. The vets recommendation, before examining him but based on the information I provided including a video of him shaking, was to run a full blood panel and xray which would require sedation. Now worried that this was something super serious, I agreed to the work. $900 later, they said that the xrays turned up nothing and that the video I sent them was nothing to worry about, he was just stressed. They said the bloodwork would come in the following week and they would call with updates. They never called. I understand the rule "no news is good news" but after spending nearly $900 for all this work, I expected at least a follow-up. However, I do get weekly emails about his "prescription" which includes flea medicine (even though he's a completely indoor cat) and calming food.

If only I could give The Cat Hospital of Fairfax 10 stars I would. I have a cat that has been sick and they have gone above and beyond. I have had to reach out to them with questions many times and they are always very responsive and caring. They call or email me back quickly. My cat used to see Dr. Ellison but since her retirement we now see Dr. Colahan.

I am so so so happy to have found this feline only clinic. The staff was amazing from the very first phone call. I told them my little girl was sick and they got her in the very same day. Dr. Colahan called and sent multiple emails to follow up to see how my little girl was doing. She followed up with the specialist my cat was referred to. Overall, it was such a positive experience. I was so upset about my little girl but thanks to the Cat Hospital of Fairfax she is doing much better.
