Preventive care
Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.

Great hospital with great doctors and vet techs. We took our puppy for a new client/wellness exam and we were given all the information needed and he was greeted very well. They were very accommodating with the prescriptions we were using and have an online portal for easy ordering. Dr. Butala was amazing, very patient with all our questions, and answered all of them very thoroughly. She was very gentle when examining our puppy and he was very calm during the whole exam. This will be our place to go to for the rest of our time in VA.

Good things first - Staff up front is very friendly and responsive. The vet I had met is very nice and kind. If I only had to rate for those SPECIFIC things I would rate them 4-5 stars. Bad things - I’ve never had a vet where I felt like I was a sucker just trying to transact for more goods or services I don’t need. You’ll feel this way as soon as you walk-in, products literally everywhere as if it’s a store more-so than a veterinary clinic. I’ve gone to this place twice so far. 1st time - Dog needed a few shots and heart worm test. All in all, 3 or 4 shots plus the visit was over $300. They also wanted to sell me the heart guard specifically, they were going to charge either $150 or $180, I cannot recall the price anymore, but it was one of those two values. ITS $70 ONLINE! I get marking up a little because they should be able to make some money and they have to carry inventory. To literally sell for over 100% what consumers can buy online is robbery in my mind. I asked for a prescription instead. If you don’t ask, they will just sell you it and mention nothing about saving money. The heart guard is what made me skeptical about the whole merchandise thing to begin with. Second visit - a checkup for my dog over $130 for 2 ear swab checks to make sure the ear infection was gone and looked at my dog for a total of less than 1 minute. (Not kidding). $60 of the 130 was for a “ear cleaner” that I didn’t ask for, they just came out with it, labeled it with my dogs name and basically said there’s “excess debris in her ear” they didn’t actually look at her ears, they took two swabs. I told them I had ear cleaner at home and I was told, “this has keto, etc” basically an up sell technique and I didn’t want to ask how much it was so I ended up just going along with it. It was $60, online it’s $25. Again, over 100% markup. They honestly probably get the product for retail price which would be around $13. (I don’t know that for sure) All in all, I needed a vet in the area and I found them online. If you want to be overcharged on normal checkups and then sold things you do not need for OVER TWICE what you can buy it for online then go here. They also tried to sell me dog food during my first appointment which I can only imagine is also marked up crazily. I really don’t know if I would trust them if my dog was seriously ill because I feel like they would recommend whatever the most expensive thing is. If you go here, don’t buy any of their products and ask for a prescription instead, unless you’re ok with being charged over double for what you can get online.

Visiting Virginia Beach with my dog. Ran out of an important prescription and needed the assistance of a local vet. Luckily, I found Princess Anne Veterinary Center. Everyone was courteous and extremely helpful. We had a great visit; much y dog was checked out thoroughly, and Princess Anne staff were great about working with our home vet. I’m glad to know that from now on when we’re visiting the area, they will be there for us.

I recently switched from another Veterinarian that I was not happy with and Princess Anne Veterinary far exceeded my expectations. The front office staff, Vet Tech, Ashley and Dr. Butala and Dr. Dalton were wonderful! I'm so glad I have a place now to take my Pups and know they are cared for.
