Provided by YP.comBeen going to Beltway since I was a teen, and my mom had dogs. I once went to another vet and they were expensive. Like Dr. Smiths no nonsense approach to canine health. Still miss Dr Shortall, now gone 4 years. All he had to do was lay a hand on a dog and know instinctively what was wrong. He also rebuilt my dogs ear canal!

Provided by YP.comDR.Shortall and the staff at BELTWAY ANIMAL HOSPITAL are the BEST. Been going there a long time DR.really shows care and love not only the animals but, also for the parents of their fur babies. I would tell any one to take their pets to Beltway Animal Hospital... :)

Provided by YP.comI was stunned to read the review from the lady that had her cat put down. I couldn't imagine this was the vet I know.
Because Thank God for them, is all I can say. Before I went to Beltway Animal Hospital, I took my dogs to the fancy over-priced fou-fou vet, who, in fact did everything wrong.
Beltway Animal Hospital are amazing. They are the reason my little man is still with me after 16 eventful years. They're kind, knowledgable, and fair. And I'm so grateful to them. Would rave about them to anybody!

Provided by YP.comI unfortunately had to take my cat here to be euthanized. Having worked in veterinary medicine in the past, I know how certain things should be done, and when they are being done the wrong way. Everything about this visit was WRONG. During what was already a difficult time for me, the staff was uncaring and rude. Upon entering the exam room with my cat, the Dr did not even bother to introduce himself to me. I explained to the staff that my kitty could be difficult to handle at the vet and requested that they give him an injection of a sedative prior to attempting to handle him. They did not listen to me, let alone even acknowledge the fact that I had even said anything. They ended up choking my cat with a no slip leash that is meant for use in dogs while trying to restrain him, which is not the right way to restrain a cat, and if you ask me, it is bordering on cruelty. I was completely horrified and shocked at this point. My cat, while being handled at the vet is always very vocal and loud, and he could not even get any sounds out of his mouth due to the technician having the leash so tight around his neck. After the Dr put my cat to sleep, I got no condolences from him. He simply stated without feeling that he was gone, and then left the room.
I really have no idea why this man is a veterinarian. If him and his staff will handle and treat a pet this way in front of an owner, I hate to think how they treat pets that are dropped off at the clinic and entrusted to their CARE, if you can call it that.
