Emergency veterinarian service

If I could give this office more than 5 stars I would.

I noticed my French bulldog acting off, he was shaking, panting, stiff, rigid, and in excruciating pain in his lower back region. After visiting with another vet that gave my baby pain killers, I was concerned he was having a reaction to the pain medicine - falling over, labored breathing, shaking, and super stiff. At this point he wasn't able to stand on his own because his back legs were not functioning. We called Bradenton vet ER and they told us to bring him over.

They took him immediately and started examining him - wasting no time.

Dr King was the vet that helped us. She was kind and very intelligent. She presented us with what she thought and gave us options on how to proceed. I could not have asked for a better vet - kind, intelligent, and thorough.

Through this process, the entire staff was very warm and comforting, specifically vet tech Joey helped us. He was sincere, caring, and even told me I could call him to check on my baby throughout the night after having to hospitalize him. He gave me an update and a picture in the middle of the night and reassured me he was being taken care of.

The next morning they informed me he would need emergency back surgery and they got me in contact with the neurologist within 15 minutes. From there my Luca had the surgery and is finally not in pain. He is currently still under the care of Bradenton vet ER and we are hoping for a speedy recovery. If you have any problems with your animal, they are in the best care here.

Was in town for Christmas and of course the dog decided to have an issue on Christmas night. Did a search and saw this as the closest option.

Called ahead to confirm they had space. Walked in, got checked in and was in the room within 10min. Was seen quickly by the tech. and the vet. We were in and out within an hour.

Service and all the employees were great. They charged more than reasonable prices and didn’t waste time or money upselling unnecessary tests or medications.

Would more than recommend, and use them again if needed. Thanks to there wonderful staff for their support.

We were visiting from out of town and unfortunately our golden started acting weird and walking wobbly. The vet on call was so kind and caring and checked Harley out in the lobby. He immediately knew the issue, told us not to worry, and patiently answered all of our frantic questions. He was 100% correct and Harley is back to his normal happy, energetic self today! We can't say thank you enough for the care, kindness, patience and reassurance we received. Highly recommend!

I just took my 12 year old dog at 3am the night after Christmas. The staff was very pleasant on the phone and in person.
Dr Ross was very personable and thorough with her examination. She gave me options for treatment with associated costs, so I could make a decision that would make sense all around.
She gave my dog 3 shots and medicines to go home. The office also followed up with a phone call to check up on my pup 2 days later.
In addition to the great service received in a very clean environment, the fees were reasonable for an emergency. I highly recommend this vetenary practice and feel relieved I know where to go without hesitation next time the need arises.

Our 13yo lab needed to be seen on a Friday night and being new to the area with no established vet, we had to hope that we could trust all these great reviews! We were so comforted by the staff from the first phone call, to when we walked out the door. They were so caring, calming and compassionate. We could not recommend them more highly! We are so grateful to have found them!
5/3/24: a sad update on Bella. Because of the sweet and competent care we received in January, we were able to have an additional 4 months with our beloved girl. We knew we had reached the end with her yesterday. We now live over an hour away from this location but knew we had to bring her back to these angels who work at this practice. It was the hardest and saddest decision to make but I will never ever forget how special they made her last moments. I can not recommend this practice more highly! We will be forever grateful for their kindest and compassion!

I had to bring our pup Bitsy in today at 130am. She was very sick.
Not only was my phone call answered quickly, but you could hear the care in his voice. Office is clean and well kept. Staff is courteous, professional, compassionate and caring. I cant say enough. They went above and beyond what I expected. If you have a pet emergency, these are the people to see.
If I could give more than 5 stars I would.

My dog Georgia ate part of a stuffed animal and she became very sick. After going to 3 other vets that were unable to help we rushed her in on a Saturday night around 7:30pm. They did surgery late that night to remove a large piece stuck in her intestines. The staff was wonderful. Special thanks to Dr Tricia Anderson for explaining the procedure and doing the surgery. Thank you Leo for her reassurance and following up with us. I would absolutely go there again.

I cannot thank the staff enough for the care and compassion they showed me while trying to navigate my poor babies condition. They did everything with so much love i could have not asked for anything else. They explained everything to me so i never felt as if i had any unanswered questions. Thank you for everything during this difficult time.
