Pikesville Animal Hospital

You only have to look inside this facility to know the dedication that Dr. Zumpano has to his practice. Quite simply he offers the latest and up to date technology that is offered in vet medicine to date. He backs this up with a knowledge that you will never see at your regular vets office. This may sound a bit harsh but I have met with more than 20 vets in the maryland/va area and I've endured 3 emergency centers with crisis situations. Pikesville Animal Hospital has been dropped in the middle of pikesville like a gift from heaven above!!. For those of us who treat our dogs and cats like family members... FINALLY we have a doctor who can diagnose and treat every condition or symptom.. ON SITE! Thats right! He draws blood and tests it! He scrapes skin and diagnoses it! Do you know what a relief it is to walk into a doctors office and walk out with a complete diagnosis and game plan for a full recovery?
Well let me tell you what it feels like. It feels like you've won the friggin emotional lottery and you will keep coming back over and over because this is where you go when you want your precious baby fixed.
And just to offer a bit more to Dr. Z's character...He kisses on the mouth!
Thats right... When he thought I wasn't looking he took a full tongue kiss from my puppy straight to the lips!
IN my life.. I have never seen that kind of compassion from ALL the vets in maryland, lined up one-by-one!
Tell you what. Next time you're in pikesville just stop in and take a look around. Talk to his amazing techs who are always at the desk.. always answer the phone on the first ring... Just stop in and say hello!

If you love your cat and dog like a child... trust me! Having Pikesville Animal Hospital on speed dial is going to give you alot of peace of mind! This place is lightyears ahead of the vets I've used in the past.

Dr. Zumpano and his staff are the best in the business. They treated my cat very well and made both of us feel comfortable. We were very informed about the treatments that our kitty received and she recovered back to 100%. We will never take her anywhere else.

It is rare to find a vet as committed as Dr Z. After some negative vet experiences in my past, I feel lucky to have found a vet like Dr Z for my pooch (my baby). After my scavenger of a dog ate something that made her incredibly sick, Dr Z nursed patiently nursed her back to health. He constantly educated me on her condition, and was truly invested in her recovery. Not to mention that the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. My pooch deserves the best and she has it with Dr Z. Highly recommended.

My husband and I took our puppy to this animal hospital after he got attacked (and scratched in the eye!) by a mean cat. I had read great reviews about this place, and was not at all dissapointed. The place is great! The staff is very nice and Dr. Zumpano is kind, compassionate and extremely good at what he does.
We've been going there ever since! The service is amazing (they even call to check up on you!) and the quality your pet receives is the best.
Why go anywhere else? If you love your pet and want the best for him, I highly reccomend this place.

Our baby (90lbs) 1 1/2 yr old boxer was very sick. We were clients of another vet in Owings Mills and we were so upset with the customer service there. We would take him there and have to wait 45-60 minutes each time we came and that is very hard for us to do as our boxer is very hyper and to hold a 90 lb dog back after about 10 minutes your arm feels like it is about to fall off. So we had enough and decided to look for a new vet. I found Dr Zumpano in the yellow pages and figured why no try it out. So I called up and told Shelly at the front our issue with the other vet and how we needed our boxer to be seen as he was sick etc. We brought him in right away and when we arrived we did not even wait one second in the waiting room we went right back. I was amazed how fast and how nice everyone was. Dr Zumpano was very concerned and cared about our boxer like he was his own. Not to mention our boy is so hyper around other and Dr Zumpano handled him with no problem. We have found our new vet and could not ask for anything better. Not to mention all the staff was so kind and understanding.

When Dr. Z was at the Village Vet in Mt. Washington I had taken my cat there. He diagnosed her with renal disease and guided me along the way in her care without haggling my checkbook. When he left, I was sad and disappointed but continued to take my other pets there but the experience wasn't as great. I just recently discovered that Dr. Z is back which is a Godsend because the Village Vet has really seemed to gone downhill since they began letting go of their key staff members. I highly recommend Pikesville Animal Hospital if you want a professional opinion without being made to feel as though you're just another payment coming through the door.

Dr. Zumpano correctly diagnosed and nursed my marmelade tabby, Whimsey, through hepatic lipidosis while at AMC. When I took Whimsey to see him in his new practice, Dr. Zumpano remembered all the details of the case as if it were yesterday!! I am so relieved that he's back in town. I feel entirely confident leaving Whimsey in his care. I can't say that of anyone else. The new facility and the staff are wonderful too!!

I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Zumpano at AMC of Mt. Washington,so there was no doubt in my mind when I decided to take the newest addition to my family to get neutered at his new facility. Dr. Zumpano is and always has been extremely professional and compassionate and is probably the best veterinarian in the Baltimore area! I am comforted in knowing that he has registered nurses working for him (Dana was awesome) and experienced front end staff that are both personable and knowledgeable. I cannot thank him enough for taking such great care of my little guy! There's no question that the rest of my brood will be seeing him in the near future!

Dr. Zumpano had made a very positive impression on me when he was at AMC and helped us with our Golden a few years back, so when we inherited an 18 year old beagle recently I made an appointment with him. His skills and caring, as well as the detailed personal attention, is the best I have experienced in a vet. You don't feel rushed or gouged as you do with so many other practices. I highly reccomend him.

Today was my first visit to Pikesville Animal Hospital and very impressed of how spacious the facility is and current technology used for treatment. Dr. Zumpano spoke to my wife and I in an informative yet sincere way focused on the best interest of my pet. Other Vets could learn from Dr. Zupano combined treatment methods of my pet and customer relationships and professionalism that is essential in keeping customers returning year after year. Its wonderful to know that my Vet has a higher degree of treatment than any other animal hospital Ive seen in a long time..

Dr. Zumpano should really be called an Animal Pediatrician ~ he treats each patient as tenderly and gently as if he or she were a small child, and the animals react accordingly.
Our 8 year old Chinese Crested was having a mulitude of problems that our regular vet kept misdiagnosing and mis-medicating - making our baby increasingly sicker. Dr. Zumpano figured out the problem, got him on the proper treatment and he's doing great!

Rather than tensing up like they used to when we went to the vet's office, now when they see Dr.Z they get all excited and give him licks & kisses!

Dr. Zumpano treats our 3 dogs like they are his own and always displays a caring affection and a calm manner. He fully explains what he thinks is wrong and why he is recommending his treatment; he does everything possible to make sure the cure is not worse then the sickness; he calls us at home to see how they are doing and e-mails us for updates. I have never met such a kind and caring doctor for humans or our pets!
Other doctors and vets could learn a lot from how Dr. Zumpano treats his patients and their owners, listening for clues that owners feel are really important and taking the time patiently to make sure the owners know they have done everything possible for their beloved pets.
Plus our three dogs love him back and are never afraid to go to the vet anymore.

Dr. Zumpano has been the vet for both my personal pets and a number of dogs in the dog rescue I work with. He has always been very professional and genuinely cares for each and every patient. I am looking forward to the opening of Pikesville Animal Hospital.
