Report
We were not very happy with the focus on expensive testing. The vet is not good at providing a clear and reasonably priced approach to problems, and the front office staff is often disorganized and unreliable. We took our dog to a different vet who actually addressed her problems, so we cannot recommend Parkway these days.

They took care of our pup for 12.5 years, provided excellent care. Dr. Rhymes gave us a very accurate diagnosis for our dog at the end. Because of his treatment were were able to have 6 additional days with our dog, . We were able to have all family members to come and say their goodbyes. Shot out to Ali and Nicole as well. Thank you for your kindness and compassion at the end.

We just got a new shelter puppy who was experiencing diarrhea. The receptionist immediately set us up with an appointment to see Dr. Rhymes. He thoroughly checked our puppy and started him on some medications. We are very thankful for Dr. Rhymes and the Parkway Veterinary family.

Parkway Veterinary Clinic and Dr. Rhymes care so deeply about their animals and people. They go above and beyond to provide whatever is needed. They are so good to the rescue dogs of the region, specifically HART dogs. Dr. Rhymes got my adopted senior dog healthy again after he nearly died, and now I trust them so much that I changed my second dog's vet to Parkway. He squeezed her in as a new patient this week and is performing a surgery next week to remove a mast cell tumor. I drive from DC to ensure my dogs get the best care and it's worth it!

They saw us quickly and we switched vets given our larger anxious pup. We even had a welcome message out front to greet us. Thoughtful and prepared as we were quickly seen and given a thorough physical that found an ear infection. It exceeded our expectations and have found our new vet home!
