What reviewers say

60% Mixed sentiment
based on 548 reviews

Coastal Veterinary Emergency Clinic provides urgent and after-hours care for pets, earning widespread praise for its deeply compassionate veterinary team, attentive technicians, and supportive approach during end-of-life decisions. Many clients highlight the thorough explanations provided by doctors and the gentle handling of anxious or injured animals. However, the facility frequently struggles with severe wait times, communication gaps during busy periods, and front desk friction. Pricing tends to run high, as is typical for emergency care, and occasional triage or diagnostic missteps are noted by frustrated pet owners. Overall, the practice remains a vital, comforting resource for late-night emergencies despite operational bottlenecks.
