VCA Animal Emergency Center

This place is Literally a LIFE SAVER! They... Dr. Christine Washington & Dr. Virgo saved my Pomeranian when St. Francis veterinary specialist & emergency Melissa Ehrlich, DVM & I quote... "... if you cannot afford to pay $8,000 for your pet, maybe you should put him down"... BEFORE Even examining or getting his xrays. Boots went from great to fatal in almost 24 hours with no prior warning signs of stones in his urethra that stopped him from urinating, eating and drinking water & vomitting it back up. I never felt so hopeless in my life. This dog has helped me thru 2 breast cancer diagnosis & multiple surgeries. He's the love of our entire family's Life! If you seen him you'd fall in love! Christine checked in on him on her days off and over the holidays! I'm most grateful and will only take our 3 FurBabies & granddawgies here. THANK YOU Christine Washington & VCA

This was my first time ever visiting an emergency vet and let me tell you. They have the NICEST workers there. They took care of my sweet baby Bella and also me. I was a mess. Thank you VCA for what you’ve done and what you continue to do for everyone! Bella (A.K.A. Best Kitty In The World) according to you all is doing amazing and I’m sure she appreciates all that y’all have done aswell

I need to say thank you so much for the care you gave my best friend and little one last night. I am from out of state and Bella was having issues breathing. I rushed her to this location and they immediately treated Bella like family and made me feel so comfortable and safe. She left with the medication she needed and is doing so much better. I appreciate you all caring. She is family and this location cares hands down. I am beyond grateful!!!

My 13 year old dog started having a seizure on the morning of July 4th. Being a holiday I struggled to find an emergency vet that was open but I called this business asked the prices and told them I would be heading their way with my dog and they said they would be ready for me. As soon as I got there they rushed to my car and helped me pick up my 60lbs seizing dog and bring her straight in to the back where the doctor was ready and waiting. She was seizing for a substantial time and I decided it would be best to put her down. The Doctor was empathetic, kind, and extremely professional. I’m really really glad I went here and I’m grateful they took the situation as seriously as it felt to me. She was a very good dog.

Brought my pet chicken in recently for digestive issues. Dr. Benfield was amazing and was clearly familiar with birds. She walked us through each step that was needed and explained any risks. It’s great to know we have an awesome vet nearby in case there is another issue with our flock. Would highly recommend to other chicken owners.
