I can't thank Dr. Murphy enough for the care and concern he exhibited for my failing cat BabyCat. He is so knowledgeable, intuitive, and kind. He looks at your pet as whole - he doesn't treat just one symptom. He takes time to explain things to you. He gives you options and recommendations He is gifted in understanding animals and people. I am truly grateful to him. I highly recommend and can't thank him enough. He's a fantastic vet - the best I've been to, and I've been to many. Thank you again, Dr. Murphy.
I have been a client of Capitol Hill Animal Clinic for many years, going back to when it opened. Compared to other clinics in the city, they do a very thorough and professional job at a very reasonable cost. Dr. Dan Murphy especially is extremely knowledgeable, takes his time with your pet and explains what needs to be done and why. Dr. Muhlbacher is a bit more imperious but is still very competent. The staff are very helpful. Highly recommend.
The pet care was decent, about what you'd expect. But they were so unbelievably expensive that I will never consider returning here, even though I live right down the street. I took both my cat and dog in for their regular checkups and vaccines only to have them charge me well over 3x the price I paid at my last vet. On top of that, the Vet guilted me into services by "highly recommending" a couple shots and services that I researched later only to find that they were completely elective and not required. At no point did they indicate that their prices would be so obscene until I had waited in the lobby for 15min after my appt and was running so late that I couldn't bear to stick around and complain. This single visit, without anything special cost me nearly $600. They even charged me $5 for cleaning up the (very normal amount of) pet hair after the appointment! If you have ANY concern at all for your checkbook, then you avoid this veterinarian!
Capitol Hill Animal Clinic is one of the best vets I've ever been to. Both of their doctors are knowledgable, kind towards animals, willing to spend a substantial amount of time with you explaining what is going on and explaining treatment options. I have taken my cat to them twice now, once during the summer, when he was vomitting, and the doctor gave me a clear breakdown of costs before I agreed to tests and treatment, and we decided on a good treatment plan for my cat. My cat recovered, but unfortunately, I had to take him back to the vet this week because he was very sick with liver disease and anemia. Dr. Jim was very helpful in trying to diagnose the problem and concious of my budget. He spent a TON of time with me, explaining different diagnosis options and, when we finally figured out what was wrong, different treatment options and he suggested a helpful path for moving forward. My cat got worse, however, and so I had to take him back to put him to sleep. Dr. Jim and the technicians were extremely helpful and caring, and I really appreciate their kind words and their kind treatment of my cat. I would highly recommend Capitol HIll Animal Clinic to anyone.
Capitol Hill Vet Clinic is amazing! I took my Italian Greyhound puppy in for his first visit and they educated me about this breed in great detail. He had also picked up something (possibly from the breeder) and they gave me everything necessary to take care of him and all the information there is about the disease. They also gave me samples of flea control. The clinic also worked out a plan for his next shots, neutering, ect. After my visit they continually followed up to check on him. They forgot to charge me for one of the vaccines, but I didn't mind because the prices are very fair and so I paid it. Everyone was extremely informative, helpful, and friendly. I strongly recommend it!
