What reviewers say

60% Mixed sentiment
based on 661 reviews

The 24-hour emergency and specialty hospital provides around-the-clock medical care for pets in critical condition. The facility features a team of knowledgeable veterinary professionals who deliver thorough treatment plans and compassionate end-of-life care. While medical outcomes and bedside manner during critical moments receive high praise from many pet parents, operations face frequent challenges with extended wait times, high pricing structures, and inconsistent front desk communication across shifts.
