Gentle Care Animal Hospital

Very kind and caring staff. Our veterinarian was very thorough and paid very close attention to our concerns and questions regarding our older gentleman cat. I was very impressed with how thorough our visit went with x-rays and I really appreciate it.

Everybody is top notch at Gentle Care! The care we receive is unbelievable every time we go and that is usually once a week!!! I have been taking my pets to Dr Stevens for almost 20 years. She is professional, loving, very brilliant, and won’t stop helping you until she finds the best cure for your fur baby!! Her staff is amazing and awesome and patient! If you want your pet to have the best care possible Gentle Care Animal Hospital and Dr Stevens is where you should go!!!

We moved to Forest, VA late 2021 with our two cats and two dogs. The cats were 16 and 18 and the dogs 10 and 12. Our “farm” is all special needs with special food, meds, and health conditions. We had to set up vet care quickly but knew no one for a reference and the hospital we originally called was not very nice or helpful. I should also add that I am an overly dramatic pet owner and love these animals as if they were my children. I came across the reviews for Gentle Care and they were fairly close to home in Farmington. I always read reviews and discard folks who are mad that they had to pay for pet care or at the price. Pets are expensive and anyone who tells you they aren’t are lying to you or fall into another bucket of people who I won’t address in this review. I also discard those who try to provide a direct correlation to the death of a pet with a hospital unless they have the empirical data to prove this. I was looking for reviews about how this vet handled aging animals, how they deal with challenging cranky pets, etc. From the time I first reached out to just this last week they have been part of our animal care team. Dr. Davenport has been more kind and available then I could even expect and Mary, Hannah, and the rest of the team are just fantastic. I am not always easy to deal with as I work a ton, travel for work, and sometimes, just like my little toothless chorkie, can get cranky but they kindly deal with it and I have formed good relationships there. I honestly can’t say enough at how great they have been when unanticipated medical events have occurred or when my anxiety has me in a panic calling for their guidance. Our cats have since passed but they helped us through one getting GI Lymphoma and the other having a stroke. Our dogs still go there and will as long as we live in town.

I have been going to this vet ever since I had my very first dog as a kid and I would never go anywhere else! Now I’m an adult bringing my four legged family here! The staff is the most caring and compassionate! All the vets are wonderful! Dr. Stevens is amazing and patient even with the grumpiest pets! If you consider your pets family like myself I would only suggest gentle care animal hospital! They are an amazing team!
