3.0 of 5 stars. My cat developed some troubling UTI-like symptoms when we were visiting Baltimore last weekend, so I took her in for an emergency visit on Saturday. I mostly just wanted to make sure she wasn't...

Doggie Day Cares

Falls Road Doggie Day care is absolutely wonderful. My dog Que LOVES his time there! When i drop him off he practically pulls my arm off trying to get to the door and when i pick him up you can see the smile on his face. He has become much more socialized and I don't have to worry about him alone at home while im at work. I have recommended the day care at falls road to many of my friends and they are just as happy with the results as I am.

great for exotics

i switched to falls road after getting a yellow nape amazonian parrot that my usual vet had no experience with. Dr.Herko is extremely knowledgeable and friendly and can handle any exotic pets!

Care at its best

I just wanted to say how grateful I am that Falls Road is there. When my dog ate a bunch of raisins he was rushed by my father to the Falls Road for emergency care. And what care he received!! Top notch...

I feel scammed, should be zero stars by Sarah K. at InsiderPages

Falls Road MIGHT practice good medicine, but if you dont have thousands of dollars to give them YOU WILL NEVER KNOW: My cat hurt herself at night, so I took her to the 24hr emergency center. I understood the...

Pricey and uneven by Christy W. at InsiderPages

I have been going to Falls Road for years, started when it was relatively affordable. We saw Dr. Gold once and loved him, but he is no longer there. The vets there seem to turn over so fast you may never see...

Care has declined and prices outrageous

We have been taking our cats (4 of them) over the course of 9 years here. We have watched the care get slowly worse. Our latest visit have seen us wait up to 90- minutes past our scheduled appointment time...

Spay/Neuter Procedure by Martha H. at InsiderPages

Harrowing experience for me & my two Yorkies. Found the place to be more like a money making factory than a caring place for animals. For instance, a Corona virus shot was recommended, in addition to the shots...

TERRIBLE

This is the most wretched vet I have been to. Here is a breakdown of the problems: 1. Support staff up front are incompetent on many levels. I showed up for an appt to be told I was there on the wrong day --...

INACCURATE ESTIMATE & VERY VERY EXPENSIVE by Sharon Z. at InsiderPages

We had to take our cat Leo to FRAH as an emergency with what we believed to be an upper respiratory infection. The vet said she was sure that it was an URI, listened to his chest (which sounded good), gave us...

Inconsistent

I would describe this place as very inconsistent. I've had good experiences and horrible ones. My dog sees a different doc each time. Some great and others terrible. My dog's records have been mixed up at...

I'VE HAD WORSE by china r. at InsiderPages

I've been taking my dog to the hospital for only about 3mos. I haven't had any problems generally out of the staff. There was one vet who rubbed me wrong but 1 out of 3 isn't bad. I don't think that they are...

Falls Road Doggie Daycare

Daycare is subpar. My dog came home smelling like urine and was dirty. It seems as though there are too many dogs for the size of the facility (which is really quite small) and not many people are working the...

Great Place.

I moved here about a year ago and was very happy to find this vet. Everyone is very friendly and my dog doesn't despise going there. I would recommend it to anyone.

Dr. Keith Gold opened his own practice in 2003. It is called CHADWELL ANIMAL HOSPITAL and it is located at 3004 Emmorton Road, Abingdon, MD 21009 (443-512-8338). Dr. Gold WAS the professional backbone behind...

I DON'T THINK SO

As a former employee and animal lover, i wouldn't recomend taking your pet to FRAH. The bills can be redicuous ( including unneeded radiographs and medications ) and I've personally seen acts committed on...

Offers care for the less common types of pets by Katherine M. at InsiderPages

Falls Road Animal hospital cares for a lot of cats and dogs but what isn't so obvious is that they also care for a lot of species that aren't so common. I took my water turtles there when they had respiratory...
