Too much ambiguity at too great an expense. After $300 of tests, one would hope for more definitive analysis, but as I've experienced too often in the past, the trend is to lead animal lovers on with a nebulas glimmer of hope, one step at a time resulting in monstrous bills and a dead pet in the end. In my decades of association with Vets, I understand that these are animal lovers who will do anything and everything to save the creature ... but fail to understand that most people to not have unlimited resources to fund such activity. In my life, I have only found one practical Vet who would be honest enough to tell the truth ... before charging $1200+ to the distraught pet owner and dragging on the inevitable grief. You have a terrific Staff ... but need to keep it real for working folks!

This place is a rip off plain and simple..........What they charge you here would cost you is usually 4 to 8 times more than your regular vet, but you have no choice. If you have an emergency and you can't afford to save your dog, this place will "NOT" help you, unless you surrender your dog. They do not care if you can afford it or not. They will take your dog and you will never get it back. They also will hold your pet hostage until you pay them. Don't listen to their BS. They are a rip off clinic and only care about charging 4 to 8 times more and they have a bad habit of doing more to make more money than is necessary and this came from a lot of vets who agree this place is a rip off ....The person answering the complaints from this vet emergency is just trying to cover up what they do wrong. I have talked to tons of people who tell me that there regular vet said this place charges way too much for the same thing you can get done at your regular vet during regular business hours....This place is a rip off

This place has got to be the biggest scam I have ever came in to contact with. My girlfriend brings a dog in a few days ago for them to take $1,000 dollars to give her pain medicine, take an X-ray, keep the dog over night, and tell her they think her neck is broken. So they give the animal back the next day after going up there for them to say, "Oh she is doing alot better, she is walking around and holding her head up, we think she just slipped a disk but make sure you make a follow up with a Vet's office in the morning. We could not bring the dog anywhere that morning due to both of us working, but when I got home I walked into the house to hear her yelping at the top of her lungs laying on her neck and could not move. We bring the dog back to them that evening and asked if there was anything they could do for her or please figure out exactly what is wrong. Just for them to get smart with my girlfriend and ask for another $1000 because the "might" know what is wrong with her and she "might" need surgery. I'm sorry but the $1000 the night prior was't good enough for them to figure it out then?!? Instead a bunch of "we think" and "maybe's" is all we get. Then the decision of putting the animal to sleep... WoW Thanks for nothing and helping us put my dog to sleep for $1000. I hope the government shuts this place down like they did the dog pound on American Way for animal abuse. I would honestly, if I didn't work for a living" stand in front of this place 24/7 and beg people to not go in... Plus the women in there all look like the night shift women at a Kroger, beards, mustaches, hairy moles, etc...

There aren't enough words to describe how wonderful the staff at the AEC were to my poor baby. He suffered a heat stroke and was in very critical conditions for days. He had to stay two night at the emergency center. Thanks to their knowledgeable doctors( Dr. Dixon, Dr. Moffatt, Dr. Breland, and Dr. Bell-just to name a few :) ) and caring staff, he miraculously made a full recovery. I was the worried mother that called every single hour to check on him, and thanks to the technicians, was put at ease repeatedly. I encourage anyone seeking emergency medical attention for their baby to take them to the AEC immediately. Special thanks, again to the doctors and technicians, from my sweet Ruger and myself!!

We had a bitch that accidentally bred with her son. They don't carry the shot to prevent conception. Thats an emergency they "don't" handle.
