Dr. Pearson is the best! I was unable to get in with a cardiologist for months when my elderly cat was diagnosed with a heart murmur. Dr. Pearson was able to do an echo the next day and consult with her cardiologist. She is also an all around great veterinarian and compassionate person!

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Pearson and Sonopaws. The practice I work for utilizes her services often. She is everything you would want in a veterinarian. Above all else, she is highly skilled and proficient in ultrasounds, but her professionalism with all our staff and clients, and compassion for the patients cannot be matched. She has a very calming presence around our patients, which is so helpful in keeping their stress levels down during the ultrasound. We were thrilled when Dr. Pearson moved back to the Northern Virginia area and hope to continue to work with her for many years. I would personally recommend Sonopaws for any ultrasound services you need.

I worked with Dr. Pearson for several years and can highly recommend her ultrasound services. She performed numerous ultrasounds on my patients and is very thorough and highly skilled. She has lots of experience and continuing education in this field. I've even had her ultrasound my own dog. I can't say enough good things about her.

I had the great pleasure to work with Dr. Pearson while she and her family were stationed in San Angelo. I purchased an ultrasound machine while she worked for me and it was obvious she not only had great interest in ultrasound, but she was very talented in performing the procedures. Dr. Pearson is an excellent veterinarian and high would highly recommend her for any of your ultrasound needs.

Dr. Pearson is an absolutely wonderful veterinarian. She ultrasounded several of my dogs for different maladies and she was able to immediately identify the issues which needed to be addressed. Her skill with internal organ and cardiac ultrasound is phenomenal. Nothing gets past her! I am always impressed by how kind and gentle she is, using the lightest touch and sweetest voice with my babies. Perhaps the most important quality you want in a veterinarian is someone who treats your animals as they would their own. Dr. Pearson always acted like my pets were truly part of her family. She has an amazing passion for what she does, and is highly skilled at it.
Thank you Dr Pearson, for always treating us so expertly and well. Good luck in all your endeavors. All the dogs are healthy to this day, thanks to you.
All our adoration,
Brittany and the pack, especially Mirko!

Dr Julie is wonderful! She is so passionate about what she does and loves animals which shows in her dedication to them and their owners! I always feel she takes the time to talk with me and I never feel like a bother, she’s super friendly and open! She did an ultrasound of my kitty twice and was very detailed with her report and was very patient and understanding of my questions. She always makes my kitty feel comfortable and safe! Highly recommend her services!

I worked closely with Dr. Pearson for 3 years, and I cannot say enough good things about her! She has scanned my own pet for wellness checkups, as well as numerous other patients in our busy practice in northern VA. She is thorough but fast, and has a keen eye for abnormalities. Dr. Pearson has a true passion for imaging, wonderful bedside manner, and sincerely wants the best for her patients and clients. Highly recommend her service.

I worked with Dr. Pearson for several years. She is a highly skilled ultrasonographer, very thorough and attentive to both the patients and their owners. She helped with many of my cases, including my own dog, who needed cardiac ultrasound. She was an excellent colleague, and I highly recommend her for any ultrasound evaluations.

I cannot say enough about the quality and talents of Dr. Pearson. Not only is she a fabulous veterinarian both medically as well as surgically, she has unbelievable ultrasound talents. Our veterinary practice group had the pleasure of working with her when she was in the DC area for several years and we so miss her many diagnostic strengths. Indeed she was an ultrasound powerhouse for our practices and this skill is sorely missed because she was such a “go to” resource. Coupled with all of her plus’, Dr. Julie Pearson is a warm compassionate gift to veterinary medicine and to the clients and patients she serves.

Dr. Pearson is the most professional, compassionate, and supportive vet I've ever had in 30+ years. One example: after the airlines refused to allow my otherwise healthy but slow 15 year-old dog to board an aircraft in Las Vegas due to heat restrictions, I had to hire someone to transport him overland to northern Virginia. The trip took four days; unfortunately, the person I hired just put him in the back of the van with 6 other dogs, and he was forced to fend for himself to get food and water. He arrived in VA late on a Sunday night, extremely dehydrated and underfed, unable to stand. Dr. Pearson had been our vet two years prior, before we were stationed overseas, so she was the first person I called. She immediately remembered me and my dog, and said she would meet me at her Ft. Hunt office within the hour. When I arrived, her husband and daughter were there too. Even though I had disrupted their evening, they were concerned only with the health of my dog, and sought to reassure me. Dr. Pearson quickly assessed my dog's situation, and provided urgent care which had him largely back to normal within a couple of hours. She followed up with me by text and calls over the next couple of days to be sure he had fully recovered. My dog lived another 18 good months, until he could no longer walk. Even though he hadn't been a patient of hers for over a year, Dr. Pearson was the first person I called for guidance on evaluating his quality of life, and whether it was time to let him go. She spent almost an hour counseling me on the decision, and she gave me the peace of mind I had been searching for. Dr. Pearson truly cares about her patients and their human families, and she gives her best to each and every one of them.

I am a veterinarian who has had the pleasure of working with Dr. Pearson for several years. Her passion for ultrasonography as well as her skills are unparalleled. She has helped with the diagnosis and management of many of my colleagues and my own cases and I would trust her wholeheartedly to perform ultrasounds and echocardiograms on my patients. Her upbeat attitude and commitment to being proficient in ultrasonography is a winning combination. I strongly recommend her services and know Dr. Pearson and Sonopaws would be the first business I would call when looking for an ultrasonographer.

Dr. Pearson is one of the best veterinarians I have ever known and is considered an expert in advanced diagnostic techniques. She has provided excellent, compassionate, and loving care to my Weimaraner, Calvin. Julie is also an incredible person and huge animal lover. I highly recommend seeking out Dr. Pearson's care, you won't be disappointed.

I found Dr. Pearson through a mutual friend after having hard time diagnosing my 14yr old dog with 3 re-reoccurring UTIs and significant discomfort. She want even in our local area, but happened to be traveling thru and flexed her schedule to support our needs. Her incredible attention to detail, experience, expertise, coupled with her compassion, thoughtfulness and professional nature made her a pleasure to work with during the most frustrating times managing a dogs health plans when they are not well.

I give her my highest recommendation, and endorse her for your pet’s sonogram, or any veterinary care.

Dr. Pearson is an absolutely fantastic veterinarian! I worked with her for 3 years and trust her completely. She has a wonderful way of explaining any diagnosis that is both very thorough and easy to comprehend. I highly recommend her ultrasound services.

I highly recommend Dr. Pearson for any patient that needs ultrasound services. Having worked with her closely for 3 years, I can attest to her friendly bedside manner and excellent ultrasound skill set. Using her extensive training, she is always thorough and helps make the ultrasound scan a calming experience for each patient.

My experience was extremely positive. Dr. Pearson not only ensures my dog, Verdell was as comfortable as possible during the ultrasound and answered all my questions with ease and confidence. It’s clear that ultrasonography is a passion of hers! Highly recommend!

Dr. Pearson is amazing! My dog was back to her normal self within a day. She is thorough and knowledgeable ensuring the well being of my furr baby! She is simply the best and I fully recommend her.

Sonopaws is one of the most amazing ultrasound experiences I have ever had the privilege of witnessing as a veterinarian and as a pet owner. Dr. P is extremely thorough and knowledgeable. Needing an ultrasound or an echocardiogram for your pet can be extremely stressful. Sonopaws will provide this essential diagnostic test with the utmost skill and professionalism. I would recommend her services to each and everyone of my friends, family, and colleagues.

Dr. Julie is just amazing. She is competent, caring, professional, and super friendly. She is also ethical, conscientious, and reasonable. I trust Dr. Julie more than any other veterinarian and can't recommend her enough. Below is a photo of my pup, Maddie, getting a sonogram by Dr. Julie for bladder issues.

We used Dr. Pearson with Sonopaws for a patient who needed an echocardiogram and an abdominal ultrasound. Thanks to Sonopaws, we were able to provide our patient with both scans in-house, the next day. Our client was relieved she didn’t have to drive far with her dog and wait for an appointment at a referral practice. Sonopaws allows us to go one step further in patient care, while being convenient and affordable for our clients.
