    We recently had to take our boxer to this clinic in an emergency situation on a Sunday. Heavy labored breathing and panting. Signs to us of a possible heart attack or stroke. The vet did x-ray blood work and diagnosed her with "abdominal" inflammation. Gave her a shot of Rimydal and told us to dose her with Kaopectate. She worsened all that day and was in obvious pain. We took her to her vet the next morning who referred us to Circle City Animal. They immediately diagnosed her with neurological symptoms and did an ultrasound of her abdomen showing tumor on spleen/heart and bleeding around her heart. We had to put our beloved baby down. I don't know if she had been properly diagnosed on Sunday if we could have saved her, but I do know she wouldn't have been in screaming (yes, screaming) pain for over 24 hours. If your pet has a true unexplained emergency, please take them to Circle City. The Airport Animal Emergi-Center is just a general vet. They don't appear to have the knowledge to properly diagnose true emergencies.

    The vet seemed knowledgeable enough, but everything else left a lot to be desired. If it's an emergency situation where you are low on funds, don't go here! They will not allow friends to call in and donate over the phone to help out. They will tell you they can't do anything without money up front, but then when you show up ready to pay, they'll go ahead and run tests and refuse to run your card until afterwards when they can go ahead and bill you for what they just did. The vet and the techs don't seem to communicate well either, different aftercare instructions from both of them!

    I have had the opportunity to visit this facility several times. Each time the staff have been extremely caring and helpful. The past few times I've been there my dogs have been seen by Dr. Jonathan Sheff. He's one of the best vets I've ever been associated with. He's extremely thorough when checking each pet and explains everything completely. Our pets are like family members to us. We trust the Airport Animal Emergi-Center completely when we have a problem that needs immediate attention. I recommend them constantly. Our thanks to the staff and doctors there.

    the staff was wonderful. they helped my dog so much. she unfortunately passed away but not because of lack of medical care. the doctor and staff were just so loving and caring. they made us feel like it was their baby too. highly recommend going there for emergency treatment. THANK YOU!

    We took our Boxer pup there for the night. He was stable but had to have an IV drip and stay the night. They told us we had to pay 500 upfront and 2000 when we picked him up, or we had to have him put down. I went back to see him, and They had put him in a cage on the floor with his head hanging out. they detached his IV and threw it on the floor. They were doing nothing for him and he ended up passing away. This was the most horrifying experience i have ever had at a vet. Please do NOT EVER take an animal here!!! They care nothing about animals! They only care about money!
