While the circumstances surrounding my pets' visits may not always have been optimal, the service, compassion, intelligence, and understanding have always been top notch. Sometimes, there is a long wait, but this is an emergency center in an area where there are not many others (if any). Patients are prioritized just like at a human ER. I have had pets rushed in and others with less life-threatening issues have waited patiently for excellent service. Never have I felt forced into any option, and all options have been discussed thoroughly with me each time. I am grateful to have a trustworthy emergency vet care center close to home.
High quality emergency vet care for your pet. Open 24hrs. My Pomeranian got attacked by a Rottweiler. I rushed him over here and they took him in right away. They immediately gave him a sedative to calm him down. They overestimated the costs upfront, which was fine because after surgery, they readjusted the costs to a lower amount. The cost seems about right. The quality of the care was outstanding. Very capable and friendly staff. I think most of the negative reviews are due to the cost. Vets are not cheap, no matter where you go, so get over it! These vets saved my dog, and he has recovered perfectly!
DO NOT TAKE YOUR PETS HERE! I took my pet in and got a quote of over $700 to treat my animal. When I refused and asked that my pet be brought back the person left and brought me back another quote, NOT MY PET! Then I was told my pet would be brought out, they took there sweet time and charged me for a consultation fee that I was not made aware of when I came in. These people are extortionists trying to use your pet as leverage. TAKE YOUR PET ANYWHERE ELSE BUT HERE!
This place will see you quickly and is open 24 hours. They also will milk your very last dollar and tell you when you run out of money that if they can't find what's wrong (or you're out of cash) it may be time to put your pet down. Day 1 was $900 worth of tests and they had no clue what was wrong. Low and behold it turns out my dog had a serious ulcer that's very treatable but because they wasted time doing a bunch of heart stuff. Day 2 she needed a blood transfusion because she was bleeding to death and other tests for another $1000! That's about $2000 in two days when if they just would've diagnosed the ulcer it may have been under half that. Originally, for the blood transfusion and over night care they were asking $2500! My dog's not out of the woods and we found better care for her. Come here only for super emergencies and if you have super deep pockets.
I just got home from the VET, and long behold no one even got to see or help my dog. I called at 9:25PM with a concern about my dog possibly having stomach bloat. I was told it could be "life-threatening". As I arrived (two other in there) I was put in the room immediately with my dog and was told to fill out a form. I finished up and sat there for an hour with no assistance or anyone coming in the check up on my dog. For a so called "life-threatening" situation they really took it serious. The whole time while sitting in there I can hear the people in the back chatting it up about their plans for the weekend. Completely unprofessional, I will never attend there again. I got up and walked out and took my dog else where. When I left no one was up front and no one was there.
