Anybody tried Bond Vet yet?

Bond Vet is opening a bunch of clinics in the area with an urgent care model, which seems like a useful addition to the vet care landscape. I noticed their new location on Arlington Road in Bethesda today, not yet open but will be really convenient when it is. Reviews on Yelp are very mixed. Anybody tried them yet?

Yes, I used them for urgent care (at my regular vet's recommendation) when my vet had no more appointments in the day. They were fantastic, frankly, and saved me and my pup from a night of misery.

PP, that is great to hear! Which location did you go to?

Haven't used them, but the one in Clarendon looks reasonably busy.

I'm PP--I went to Clarendon

Bumping this. I'm seeking a new vet for my old lady (16) and a new pup. I've been at Friendship forever, but ready to consider other options. Has anyone been to the Bond in Bethesda?

Thanks for bumping. I'm the OP of the original thread and am also curious about experiences at the Bethesda location. And is there parking onsite through that gate right by the building?

We were thinking about trying them as they had a low first time visit cost but we thought dog was ok. Curious about them too.

Thinking of trying Bond Vet also. We have been extremely disappointed with our current vet, Palisades Ver Clinic. Our dog had a major medical issue, and we couldn’t even get our vet from Palisades to call us back. Totally unprofessional.

Update. I brought my 16 year old to Bethesda Bond, and I'm so happy. The space was calm and welcoming. The vet (Dr. Owens) spent a ton of time with me answering questions, talking about different treatments, how to prioritize actions, etc. I've never had a vet spend that much time with me and really thinking through what made the most sense for her age. It was really refreshing. I'm sold. I'm bringing my new pup there as well.

That's wonderful, PP! Is there parking right behind the clinic, where it looks like there's a parking gate to enter? I've only driven by on my way up and down Arlington Road.

Thanks for posting. Good to hear.

NP who is considering switching to the Bethesda Bond Vet location from City Paws uptown, as we have moved to Bethesda. Would love more recent feedback.
