    I was out of town when my cat was brought in for Diabetic ketoacidosis. My parents took them in to…read morestart the treatment and the nurse Lisa was sooooo helpful and kind with the whole process. I drove straight from the airport as soon as I got home and I was told by Lisa that I could come in anytime to see my cat to boost his spirits. I was waiting in a room for over an hour and was told I couldn't see my cat until a doctor came in and spoke with me, despite what Lisa had said in the past. Another nurse kept coming in and out just trying to talk money and financial plans and credit cards I could open up to help pay for the treatment. She was extremely insensitive to the fact that I just wanted to see my sick cat. I finally got to see him and discussed with Dr. Long that she hopes to see improvements the next day. The next day comes and Dr. Long goes on a spiel on how she thinks he's improved and is walking around in his cage and drinking water. I was so excited and ready to pay for another treatment right there. Luckily, My mom told me to see him before I pay for anything else. When they took me back to see him, he could barely open his eyes and hold his head up or even stand. I really would've appreciated HONESTY from the staff on his stability and chances of actually getting better. Again, THE NURSE LISA, was very kind, let me have time with my cat in a private room and was very honest with us about his recovery. Overall just wish there was more compassion and transparency with the whole process. It was really disappointing having my hopes up that my cat was getting better but In reality he looked worse than when he came in. And I did not appreciate the money hungry nurse trying to get more money out of me when I hadn't even seen my cat since he's been sick.

    I just got the word that my beloved Afghan was hit by a car through email. I called and the…read morereceptionist immediately tried to sell me a burial package. I explained that he slipped out of the gated dog park and disappeared. Therefore, I spent the entire day placing paid ads across social media. There was no empathy for my feelings as an owner just the sales pitch. When I explained that I needed time to organize and decide , she angrily hung up the phone in my face.

    I had to take my older cat in due to vomiting and general unwell, my usual vet is closed on the…read moreweekend and my cat seemed like she needed urgent care. Although I was here for several hours 12:30-6am, my cat was cared for and gently handled the whole time. They were relatively quick with the tests they ran, and everyone was knowledgable and extremely kind. They do xrays on site and are able to triage several pets at one time. There are at least 3 doctors I saw, and so many vet techs who seem to love what they do. I really appreciate all that was done for my cat. I attached my bill as well to my review. Although kind of expensive, it is worth it to have my cat be alive and well. They did give me a discount, again, they were very kind. Base visit is $180 and anything additional will be added in a quote they will show you before more care is applied to your pet. They see cats and dogs, as well as other animals and exotic animals such as birds/rabbits/bearded dragons/etc. I would definitely come back here if my cats were in distress.

Over a dozen team members immediately assembled like a trauma center, working tirelessly to try and bring her back. ​Although we couldn't save her, their incredible speed, devotion, and genuine compassion gave Genie every possible chance. They treated both of us with so much care during the hardest moment, and I will never forget what they did for us. We need more emergency centers like this--if you ever face a critical situation with your pet, please bring them here and support this extraordinary team with your business and appreciation. Highly recommend.

    I've sat on doing this review for a month but I will share my experience. I think having a true…read moreemergency vet is extremely important and I commend all the staff for this difficult job. My experience - extremely long wait. The pricing is insane but they are your babies so you basically just take a deep breath and sign away. My animal wound up needing emergency surgery after sitting there for about 6 hours. I was told the estimated price and the deposit needed. I did ask if they had a payment plan which the tech said "no it must be paid up front" which later one I realized that you can do care credit so I didn't appreciate that that wasn't recommended as an option for me. So I gave them $5,500 as a deposit and was ready to visit with my baby before leaving. As I was visiting they approached me and told me they didn't have what they needed for my cats surgery so basically I had to bring her up to UF animal hospital 2 hours away. They did refund about $3,900 back onto my credit card for the surgery deposit. I started my journey with my cat at 10am and didn't get to the UF hospital until 6:30pm. It was an extremely long day I'm proud of my girl for getting through it. All in all I would obviously go back to this hospital for an emergency just know the wait will be long, the price will be high, AND you can definitely apply for care credit and use it the same day. I was immediately approved at the other hospital and used it that night to pay for the surgery.

    The wait was FOREVER but when we finally spoke to a vet she was kind, caring and offered us a lot…read moreof support. We arrived at 7:45pm on a Tuesday night and didn't leave til well after 11:15. The only thing that really irked me was they told us we were "next" at 9:45 and we still weren't seen for close to another hour. I get how triage works, so we were patient. This place is definitely an ER for life or death type emergencies, at least 1 animal was put down while we were there tonight. I really don't think a lot of their negative reviews are fair.

    I had to take my little baby girl chihuahua in on a Sunday afternoon because she was passing blood…read moreand I was in fear for her life. Thank God these emergency clinics are open 24/7 because they were able to see her and admit her into their hospital. When I called the emergency number I was answered right away by a very kind person who listened and responded to my frantic questions. The staff was very calm and reassuring knowing that this is my baby. Once we got there the long wait began. I was there for about 4 hours, including an hour in the waiting room, before I was sent home without my pet. The male doctor who came to talk to me promised to send pictures of my puppy receiving treatment throughout the night and next day to reassure me but never did it. I'm a worried mess and calling to check on her is a challenge, I was on hold for over 20 minutes before I could talk to a live human. The building itself is very clean and cold! Bring a sweater if you are going to be here for a while. Every room I saw had a wash station and the staff was very accommodating by providing absorbent pads for my bleeding pup. At this time we are still waiting to see how she will do. She lost a lot of blood supposedly due to pancreatitis. Emergency care is extremely expensive so I advise getting pet insurance before your pet gets sick or injured. They do take Care Credit to help pay for costly treatments.

    I'm very grateful that my cat, Beau, is okay, and I want to be clear that the veterinarian who…read moretreated him was kind, professional, communicative, and took the situation seriously. The medical care itself was good. Unfortunately, the customer experience was not. I brought Beau in after witnessing him swallow hair ties, and I was terrified he might have an intestinal obstruction or need surgery. While I was sitting in the room crying and waiting for answers, a staff member came in to discuss pricing in a way that felt extremely cold and transactional, with almost no acknowledgment of what was happening or the fact that I was visibly distressed. I later specifically asked the front desk that this staff member not be sent back into the room. That request was ignored. She returned to address my complaint directly and told me, essentially, that this was "just her personality." In an already stressful emergency, that made the situation significantly worse. The veterinarian handled my concerns appropriately and apologized, which I appreciated. But emergency veterinary care requires more than competent medical treatment. People are often walking through the door scared, upset, and worried that they may lose a member of their family. Basic compassion matters. I'm thankful Beau is safe, but I left deeply disappointed in how I was treated. If you have another emergency veterinary option nearby, I would seriously consider it to avoid having a similar experience.
