Beaux after treatment
Madeline C.

My little guy Beaux had slipped a disc in his back and was in a lot of pain. They took us immediately, were super friendly, communicated well and i am really halpy and satisfied with the service they provided. They also treated his pain right away. Thank you all so much!

This behavior is definitely unacceptable!  I think communication from staff would probably cut down on these issues.

We recently moved to Florida, and noticed one of our cats was hiding, and acting sickly. After researching vets in the area, we found that there weren't any immediate appointments available with anybody. We decided to take her to this emergency animal hospital as it was close, and open on a Sunday. For whatever reason, this facility requires customers and their furry patients wait outside and call upon arrival. We arrived at 11:15 for our 11:30 appointment time. A staff member came out fairly quickly, asked a few questions, then took our cat back with her in a carrier. So far so good. Sadly, that's where the good ended. There was NO communication from staff whatsoever for HOURS. No updates, no nothing. We ended up calling at 2:30 (still waiting in the parking lot), to be told our pet had been examined, but that the vet still had to talk with us. We waited another hour, and called back at 3:30. The person who answered abruptly put us on hold and retrieved the vet. The vet was friendly, and had many recommendation on tests, etc. The prices were not just excessive - they were borderline insane! After much deliberation with the staff, they agreed to treat minimally, until we could establish with a local vet. Anti-inflammatory pills, and liquid antibiotics were prescribed. More time passed - it would be after 5pm - NEARLY SIX HOURS LATER, that we had our pet back in the truck. Six hours for an exam and two scripts - absolutely mind-boggling, and a complete waste of time for all involved. At NO POINT did anyone inform us of the wait time. There was NO communication from staff - no updates, no progress reports - NOTHING. A call or text would have been very professional on their part! We had to make all the calls. If we hadn't called, we might still be waiting there now! The sign outside the office warning customers about their "behavior", as well as the filthy port-a-potty for customer use should have been big red flags - I missed them both. My advice to customers would be: 1. Don't bring your pet here unless they are SEVERELY ill, in pain, suffering, or actively dying. 2. Come here prepared to wait. Bring food, water, and entertainment. 3. Don't bring your kids (see #2 above). 4. If you do come here, be prepared to pay high prices. 5. Re-read tip #1. My advice to the business would be to COMMUNICATE with your customers - keep them in the loop, and be honest about potential wait times and/or delays due to more serious emergencies coming in. Given how much you charge for your services, you should be able to afford to hire another person to update customers, thereby freeing up your other staff. Just a suggestion.

I am so grateful for the Animal Emergency Hospital. We went this weekend for our jack russel/chi mix. We had trimmed her nails and one just was cut too short. We tried everything and couldn't get it to stop and it's crazy how much blood there was. She's not a big dog (well a bit on the heavy side) and it became very concerning just how much blood she was losing. Took her to the Animal Emergency Hospital and they got us in quickly and got her back to normal. They were wonderful and we were so glad they were there!!

Misdiagnosed my dog's condition prolonging ACTUAL treatment , we took our dog Raven to another Emergency vet an hour away , that properly cared for , diagnosed and treated our dog . The vet Cassandra Lee Van Nieuwal a new vet at this Local animal hospital , this could have went differently with communication but she failed us on her so called friday , overtired this 33 yr old misdiagnosed , failed us with her poor Communication, to trying to Hard Sell us , Thousands of dollars later leaving the vet work unsupervised to a helper , Giving a one star is overly generous to such a poorly run outfit ,after hours. The owner will be hearing from our attorney and I will also be making sure that this sort of event does not happen to any unsuspecting animal lover and resident . We were the only residents here on this day at this time. Avid this place if this vet is your only choice .

They were kind during the last moments of my beloved cat's last moments. Boyar was almost 17 years old. Thank you all for your sympathy and care.

Fraud! I took my sick cat there at the recommendation of a vet (because the vet was too busy). They took the cat in from the parking lot (like we are still full COVID lockdown) and pet "parents" were not allowed in the building. They called in 12 minutes (no way they had time evaluate him) and said they would keep him 60 hours and the bill would be $4000 WITHOUT me ever meeting the vet or any techs! This is for a cat who was playing, and eating an hour ago. The staff was rude and hateful when I asked them to bring the cat out so I could get him care someplace else. They called me "incompetent" (wrong use of word) when I asked again to bring my cat out. I would not take a dead opossum there much less a beloved pet. FOLLOW-UP: I immediately took my sweet cat to another vet. I was treated with respect, got to go inside, speak at length with the vet and staff. My cat was treated and the same procedure was $1200. I took him home the same day. And he is well! The ERHV is a horrible place and use extortion and cruelty in the most difficult times. AND I WISH I had read the YELP reviews before pulling into their prison-like facility.

Post surgery visit with my little guy.

One of my TNR kitties had his rear leg run over by a neighbor. He disappeared for a couple of days. When he came home we brought him to the emergency vet hospital. The staff is so very professional and amazingly kind. My boy had to have surgery to put his leg back in place. He is only 6 months old and has his whole life still to love on me. Obviously I went for the surgery option. The only other option was euthanasia which was not appropriate in this case. Yes it cost money to perform surgery and overnight care. The bill ran me $5k. Yes that is alot of money but reality is, it is not alot of money when you think about it. These are medical professionals with lots of overhead to operate a 24/7 365 days a year emergency animal hospital. Everything in this world is so expensive. Heck, how much is a stay in a human hospital overnight. Vets are doctors too with all the same kind of overhead to pay for. I know the money part can be difficult but it is more about the quality of life for the pet. The doctor was so caring and genuinely concerned. Ok the wait time when you arrive can be excruciating BUT you get to wait in your vehicle so you can talk on the phone, watch tv, listen to music, take a snooze. This is no different then taking your human loved one to an emergency hospital. You wait in a waiting room for hours before you know whats going on. Doctors, nurses and staff have many others they are trying to help, diagnose and triage, all behind the scenes. So give them a break and let them do their work with a clear head, not with someone being nasty or rude to them prior to maybe your pets surgery. Remember that the outcome of your pet may not always be what we hope for and that is not the doctor's fault so don't take it out on them. You will still owe the bill even if your pet passes same as you would with a hospital for humans. FYI my bionic boy is coming home today. Thank you Animal Emergency Doctors and Staff. Remember you have to visit your pet during their hospital stay to encourage them just as you would your visit your human loved one in a hospital. Just leave the flowers home and bring treats instead.

See all

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.

The veteran doctors were too busy doing huddle meetings with staff and the person who tried to draw my cats' blood had to try multiple times. They eventually got someone else. They found a mass in her bladder and recommended I see a specialist. After 4 hours of being there and waiting for test results, they sent us HOME and charged me for pain meds, antibiotics, and anti-inflammatories which she never consumed because she just kept bleeding. At 2:30am I called back because she had bled more, they mentioned something about a blood transfusion. By 4am she was yeowling in pain, I brought her back in and they said she had lost so much blood she was anemic. At 6:17am I decided to put her to sleep. Reflecting on this experience now, and speaking with her regular vet (who was closed on Sunday) they should have never sent us home while she was actively hemorrhaging. My impression is that this corporate business has "too many cooks in the kitchen" and the majority are inexperienced or get too busy to effectively communicate with one another. They should have hospitalized her and offered to keep her stable until the morning when I could get her to her regular vet who would have probably done surgery to excise the mass. Overall, it was a traumatic experience that cost me $1500 for a dead cat.

I don't think I will ever have enough words to express how grateful I am to this veterinary team…read more They saved my baby Ónyx's life. Ónyx was only 9 weeks old when he accidentally swallowed a piece of a treat that became lodged in his airway. We brought him in because his breathing sounded strange, but we could have never imagined how quickly everything would change. The director immediately performed X-rays, and within less than 30 minutes, Ónyx went into respiratory shock. From that moment, I watched the entire team move with an urgency, coordination, and dedication that I will never forget. Everyone ran to help my puppy. Dr. Timberlake had to perform an emergency endoscopy to remove the foreign object from his airway a procedure that carried significant risk for such a tiny, 9-week-old puppy. It was one of the most terrifying moments of my life. Dr. Timberlake successfully removed the object and saved Ónyx's life. Afterward, he remained under constant observation and oxygen support for hours. Dr. Peña was absolutely wonderful as well, and every single assistant treated Ónyx with so much love, gentleness, and respect. They did not leave him alone for even one second. There was always someone watching him, caring for him, and making sure he was safe. As a pet mom standing there terrified and feeling completely helpless, seeing the way this team cared for my baby meant more than I can explain. They didn't treat Ónyx like "just another patient." They treated him like his life mattered. They treated him like the deeply loved baby that he is to us. Because of their knowledge, their quick response, their teamwork, and their dedication, I have my baby home with me today. I can watch him eat, sleep, play, and be his happy little self again. There is no review and no amount of stars that could ever truly represent the gratitude I feel. Dr. Timberlake, Dr. Peña, and the entire team: thank you from the deepest part of my heart. Thank you for running for my puppy. Thank you for not giving up on him. Thank you for caring for him every single second. Thank you for saving Ónyx. I will be eternally grateful to all of you. Because of you, I still have my baby with me.

Having to say goodbye to my sweet boy Koda was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. Everyone there was so incredibly kind, gentle, and compassionate throughout the entire process. It will stay with me forever is how the doctor helping Koda continued talking to him throughout the entire process, even after she had called his time of death. She continued speaking to him so gently, and that meant more to me than I could ever explain. In a moment when my world felt like it was falling apart, that small act of kindness showed me just how much care and respect they had for him, even in his final moments. Another gesture that touched my heart was giving me a towel for his little sister to have. Having something of his for Daphne to hold onto brings me comfort, and it was such a thoughtful thing to do. It showed that they cared not only about Koda, but also about the family he was leaving behind. They made an unbearable experience a little gentler, and I will always be grateful for the compassion they showed both Koda and me. I couldn't have asked for a kinder, more compassionate team to help me say goodbye to my boy. They treated him with dignity and love until the very end, and those are things I will never forget. I'm so sorry I forgot y'all's names but tech with the L and R tattoo just know I'm forever grateful for you.

When I tell you the doctor saved my dog's life after an attack by an unknown animal (though…read moresuspected coyote because of where we were), I mean it. I had originally brought my boy to a different emergency vet and they did everything wrong, but I didn't know it until my pup was getting worse (much worse) within a couple days. I brought him to Dr. Hassan and he very quickly made a turn for the better. And when that same dog had a stroke a year ago, Doc did everything right. Dr. Hassan gave me 2.5 more active, healthy years with my pup than I otherwise would have had. How do I quantify what that means to me? I can't. The entire staff is incredible. They truly do care. My dog died in July. He was up at my parents' house in Georgia for a visit (their dog and mine were besties). He was fine when I left, but a few days later he was not at all fine. I called Dr. Hassan and even though I couldn't bring Floyd () in since he was out of state, after telling them what was going on with him, Dr. prescribed meds for him as a last-ditch effort. They filled them on site, I picked them up, and made a mad dash to get to him. It was too late by the time I got to him because I couldn't get the meds in him and he died just a few hours later (so the meds would not have helped at that point anyway), but just the fact that they gave me the opportunity to try means the world to me.
