Animal ER of University Park

My dog Q died over a year ago. I’ve been grieving ever since because of the regrets I hold taking my boy to this vet. Q had monthly seizures. On January 23rd 2021 Q had multiple seizures. I took him to this vet. Later in the day they sent me a text stating that while in their care Q had another seizure but he was okay. They sent me photos and I thought he was in good hands. The following day the call me and say he was ready for pickup and that he was wobbly but walking and he had just eaten. I drove to the vet to pick him up. There were extra fees which I didn’t care about because he was worth it to me. Then two young girls brought Q out on a gurney. They didn’t want to touch him and I couldn’t blame them because when I tell you he reeked of feces and urine I mean it was awful. I didn’t think much of the gurney because they mentioned he was wobbly. Then I took him home. Q didn’t walk for 9 days after. It was a literal nightmare. I started fearing the worst. Maybe they dropped him and hurt him some how. I went to his primary vet that referred a Nuro doctor. Apparently Q had a stroke in the care of this emergency vet. After weeks of 24 hour care he started walking again. Unfortunately, Q ended up dying in March after a tumor ruptured on his spleen. After thousands and thousands of dollars on treatment and medication this was the reason for all of the seizures. A stupid tumor that could have been removed but nobody did a simple ultrasound until it was too late. I will never get over the way he must have been treated in his time of weakness. It’s so painful to think you’re doing the right thing and in fact I made the decision to put him in the wrong hands. Ultimately, shortening his life. Hear me… Don’t take your pet here.

I took my little girl there, she was vomiting blood. They gave her excellent care. I would highly recommend this hospital! Everyone is so nice and compassionate! They gave well written after care instructions and made sure I understood everything…

All of the staff at Animal ER of University Park were so helpful during such a stressful time with our little puggle. They were conscientious, thorough and informative. They took time to explain and work on a treatment plan. Great people!

My mini Goldendoodle 7 month old puppy devoured an 8 oz bag of Raisinetes that were accidentally left out. Not only are they covered in chocolate but raisins (grapes) are highly toxic to dogs. Of course it happened on a weekend but after the shock of learning she needed fluids and daily kidney levels check she stayed for 48 hours. The entire staff was very kind and professional. I especially was grateful for the phone call updates and texts with pics of my baby. It was an expensive mistake on my part but SO glad she is ok and the Vets were wonderful. While I don't want to have to go back - I won't hesitate to if needed.

Very pleasant and nice staff. Brought my dog in after a long night of her in a manic state due to UTI. She's an old girl of 12, with advanced arthritis, but the staff were gentle with her and didn't cause any undue stress to treat her. We left with some medications and she has been feeling so much better. Its reassuring to know this place is open 24 hours with great care when faced with a medical pet emergency
