Dupont Veterinary Clinic

I had a great experience here with Dr. Fontaine and the rest of the staff at Dupont Vet Clinic! I took my newly adopted shelter cat for a wellness appointment and vaccine. It was efficient, and Dr. Fontaine answered all my questions and gave me some great cat advice. I also was able to schedule the appointment just one day after calling. Everyone I interacted with at the clinic loves animals and is very kind. Look forward to coming here for years to come!

Very welcoming and homey. Such an amazing staff (technicians, receptionist, doctors and nurses). My baby had to get a surgery and it went great. The care and attention they provide to fur baby parents and the fur babies; it’s just wonderful. Definitely recommend this veterinary clinic!

So grateful I found this clinic. My cats have been to 4 different vets across the DMV area and this is the best care we’ve ever received. Prices are also very reasonable especially considering the area. I have been bringing my super senior kitty in with some major heath needs and it has been an emotional journey. I feel every vet we’ve seen has been truly invested in providing me with all the information they could possibly give me and advised what they believe would be the best option for both my cats.
The staff has been so supportive, caring and concerned for both me and my babies. I have been super emotional in the office and every tech and vet and the people at the desk people have made me feel cared about and supported. Not only can I feel that they are genuinely invested in my cats’ welfare but they have been so supportive and comforting to me as a pet parent during this stressful process of caring for an elderly kitty. Cannot recommend this veterinary clinic enough. (Photos added for extra cuteness)

Dr Jones performed a perfect spay on rescue Kitty. The follow up appointment went well with helpful care tips considering her bread and having been rescued recently.

Took my cat here to get treated for worms and had an excellent experience. I was able to get an appointment the same day I called, and the staff was very nice and fawned all over my cat. They were very quick to see me and efficient in getting me in and out in a reasonable time. Dr. Fontaine was very nice and professional, easy to talk to, and made me feel comfortable. She recommended a clinic where I could get affordable vaccinations for my cat, which was greatly appreciated.

Had a great experience with Dr. Brennan taking care of our kitten. In addition, the rest of the staff was great - notably the vet technicians who assisted as well. Highly recommend this location for your vet needs. Also, shoutout to Stephanie who helped schedule us on short notice and get us setup as a new customer. Street parking can be hard to find so recommend budgeting a little extra time to find a spot.

Love this vet, always very accommodating to my Great Dane Bailey. They give top notch care and have always been able to diagnose whatever issues we are seeing the dr for. Highly recommend this vet.

I don’t think I’ve ever experienced such an amazing vet experience for my 2 cats here at Dupont Vet Clinic than compared to other clinics I’ve been to. Dr. Brennan listened to the health concerns I had of my cat, advised me with a plan of action, and gave price transparency based of each course of action that was available for my cat.

Love love love this clinic they have been so supportive in helping me care for my cat who is very ill. After calling several clinics I became so stressed because of how expensive services were. I began loosing hope I did not want my pet to pass away because of finances so I tried one last time and found DuPont clinic Stephanie was so compassionate about my concerns and the health of my cat so she told me to come in asap and they would work with me as far as expenses. Since my cat have been home the staff and vet have called and checked on not only the cat but also me. The staff from the front desk to the vets were so amazing I had to give them all hugs. Thank you so much to everyone for not giving up on my cat Little G when I thought there was no hope ! ❤

I adore Dupont Vet Clinic, for years I had Babygirl and Leo under their care. In 2020 we experienced many things during Covid. This Clinic was and is always ethically responsible and morally caring with Deep Compassion for the little furry family members we place in their care. We lost Babygirl and Leo years apart but not related to anything Dupont had or had not done. Our furbabies were joined at the furry paws. They started out as friend-a-mies but became close like sister and brother. During their lifetime, Dupont was there. Babygirl once came down with a strange anomaly in her ear, a rare tumor, benign but critical to her continued ability to hear and see. My current Vet. Which is Al-lynn Animal Hospital had back then in 2020, recommended me to a surgical vet way out in Virginia for the delicate surgery. When I got there, the vet (whom shall remain nameless) recommended surgery after 2 x-rays. However the surgery was frightening and I was told she would be disfigured for life and lose her hearing in the left side and lose an eye since he had to cut a certain way.
I cried, paid the $500.00 for x-rays done and went home with a heavy heart. Well I was between vets, I always use 2, because of distance, and price, and integrity. No vet is perfect nor do all doctors know everything and it's advisable to always not panic, use wisdom, calm down, pray, listen to God, hear from God and then ACT on what you are told. I am a believer and woman grounded In Christ. I decided to call Dupont, although they too had told me, the type of surgery Babygirl needed, they did not accommodate. Well God told me to call Dupont and ask AGAIN. So I told the rep that answered my call PLEASE 🙏 ask doctor MAVERICK if he knew anyone, someone who could help my darling Babygirl? My 5 minute on hold felt like eternity. Finally this second call 2 weeks after the first death diagnosis yielded hope. Doc MAVERICK came to the phone. Told me they meaning Dupont Clinic was not equipped to perform the surgery Babygirl needed. HOWEVER, he knew of a traveling specialist on wheels that could be called to travel to Dupont to do the surgery. When I explained to doc MAVERICK that most of my funds had been spent on the vet in Virginia that wanted to turn my Babygirl into Frankenstein and I had not much left. Doc MAVERICK told me he'd do his best to ask the surgeon on wheels to discount the needed surgery, but no promises. I think it took a few days. But finally Dupont called me back, the front desk clerk told me the day I could come to Dupont for the surgery for Babygirl but first visit would be a consultation with the specialist. The Doctor on Wheels not only was compassionate but lowered the cost so Babygirl could get surgery and live. I had gotten my stimulus checks in 2020. I used both and by God's mercy the amount charged, was half of the cost of the total surgery, with $400 left over which was enough to get aftercare by Doctor MAVERICK and the awesome staff of DUPONT CLINIC. I WAS grateful in tears once the on call surgeon met with me on consult to discuss the surgical procedure in details. The on call surgeon was kind, highly professional, ethically responsible and deep love and compassion for furry babies and respectful for the parents. I was further surprised that the consult turned into DAY OF SURGERY, as the need was great after the on call surgeon had assessed Babygirl. I had come prepared as the other vet had scared me so bad. But the on-call surgeon at Dupont Clinic told me, most of what the other vet said, was not true. Now Babygirl did have a polyp in her right ear, attached, growing from the bone in her ear, which was rare. The polyp was angled in a weird place down in her ear canal near her right eye and growing out of the skull close to the bone of the right ear, but not cancerous, not a tumor, only a polyp although tricky it could be removed. The surgery was done and Babygirl had an overnight stay for observation, I think I got to take her home in 2 or 3 days later. DUPONT CLINIC and Doc MAVERICK are awesome!

We tried several different vets in DC before landing at DuPont Vet Clinic and we’ll never go anywhere else. The staff are amazing, the animal care is great. And I’ve never felt like the prices were extraordinary, and certainly never felt like we were pushed into anything unnecessary (which I can’t say is true of most veterinary offices these days)!

When I lived in Bethesda I battled traffic and parking to take my dogs to Dr. Dan Shillito at DuPont Veterinary Clinic. I used to volunteer at Washington Animal Rescue League (now the Humane Rescue Alliance) and Dr. Dan was one of the vets.

I can’t remember all of his degrees and experience, but he is super qualified and also one of the nicest, kindest people I have ever met.

Dr. Jan Rosen, who was Dr. Dan’s supervisor at WARL, is the head veterinarian at Dupont Veterinary Clinic. She is excellent, too.

Lauren, a tech at WARL, also left WARL to go to DuPont Veterinary Clinic. She is such a sweetheart.

They are well worth the traffic. :)

Highly recommend this vet! My cat recently had a minor allergic reaction to a routine vaccination and they gave initial recommendations over the phone, accommodated us coming back for monitoring and did an amazing job handling my extremely uncooperative and aggressive cat. She may hate the vet, but I love Dupont Vet Clinic and am so glad they're taking care of her.

We went to Dupont Veterinary for almost a year while we were living in DC and we loved it. Dr. Mavrich is a great vet, and was always so kind and caring and would even call to follow-up with us to make sure our dog was doing well. I highly recommend Dupont Veterinary to anyone that lives in the area.

GREAT ATMOSPHERE EXCELLENT SERVICE AND SUCH A BEAUTIFUL TEAM WITH THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE IN THE DC MD VA!!!

Love Dupont Veterinary Clinic soooooo much. Always make sure my little Ellie feels comfortable and also takes great care of her in her visits. That goes for both Doctors and staff members. 10/10 best Vet.

I will never have enough good things to say about the entire team at this office. Despite being in a city, they have such a small town feel. They know their clients and care for everyone on a personal level. My pets are always in great hands here.

I can not emphasize how much I appreciate Dupont Vet Clinic. Their staff is always kind and courteous, going above and beyond. After the visits and exams, the doctor goes out of her way to call me and check in that everything is alright and that my cats are happy and well. I am very very pleased with my experiences at Dupont Vet Clinic.

From the front desk to the vet techs and veterinarians, the clinic staff are consistently professional, responsive, and kind. Pretty sure my dog gets a much better healthcare experience than I do as a human! Whether via email, phone, or in person, Dupont staff patiently answer my questions and show real concern for my senior dog. Vet care can be expensive no matter where you go - but the Dupont clinic always clearly communicates cost, sending estimate invoices in advance and looking up prices on tests and medications so there are no surprises. I have never felt pressured to commit to more expensive procedures. The focus is always on what's best for my dog. I can't speak highly enough of Dr. Monique Jones. She provides excellent communication and is clearly dedicated to providing the best care possible and finding answers for when things aren't going quite right for your pet. Our conversations are never rushed - she makes sure my questions are answered and we are on the same page moving forward. I have found her more responsive, available, and approachable than nearly every medical professional I've encountered - both those caring for humans and for animals! There is a real sense of relief and support knowing I have the Dupont Veterinary Clinic nearby if/when needed.

Honestly I don't have enough good things to say about Dupont Vet Clinic - my dog is literally the devil the second he steps foot in the door, and they are always SO accommodating and understanding and patient when he's literally trying kill them the entire time. There's a vet tech gentleman with longer hair who is so phenomenal with my dog while he's being evil/nervous/won't calm down. A few years ago my dog ingested a shoe and they ultimately did his surgery to remove it, but gave me the names and numbers and referrals to other vets and hospitals in the area to ensure I could look into other options and prices for I had all the info, just 10/10 recommend, I keep moving farther away and won't switch vets.
