I had to take my 10 year old Boxer there for an injury to his leg after hours. The front staff was great and answered all my questions. However after I picked my dog up when they finished his sutures he was bleeding more than when I dropped him off. They prescribed way too much medication and for two days until I consulted with another vet my dog would not eat, drink, pee or poop because he was so medicated. After following other vet's directions and cut his medication in more than half he was eating and drinking and moving around normal and still had pain management. I took him in for follow up to get a tube removed and Surgeon Lineberger was awful. He said my dog was going to lose his leg and wanted to keep him for weeks to do a procedure and charge me $3,000-6,000. He did not answer any of my questions and said there was nothing I could do for him at home. I took my dog for a second opinion the next morning at Academy Acres and 2 weeks later my dog's leg was almost completely healed for only $52.00 I was able to soak his leg in water and iodine and continue medication and the dead skin fell off and his new skin grew back together. The sutures they supposedly did the night he was injured had all fallen out before the skin was closed and had to be re-sutured. Lineberger jumped the gun and thank the Lord I got another opinion and my dog's leg was spared!

My family has taken our pets to this location three times now. The doctors and nurses are so caring and knowledgeable. They know how to comfort not only the animals but also children who come exhausted in the middle of the night and worried about their pet. The staff at Animal ER was able to accurately identify what the problem was with each incident and prescribe treatment to bring our babies back to 100% health. In one case, our primary vet, who knew our dwarf rabbit better, gave the wrong diagnosis. Animal ER saved our bunny's life with the correct diagnosis and effective treatment for seizures caused by a parasite. Thank-you, Animal ER for excellent service and caring. Two paws up!!!

2 out of the 3 times I've visited, it was for end-of-life care for my critters. The staff was so professional and caring that it made a very difficult time a bit more bearable. For the other time, the care was quick, professional and effective. For after hours veterinary care, I would recommend Animal ER to anyone!
