Kansas City Animal Emergency

This is the best vet and team you will ever meet. Dr. Farmer is bright and clearly has experience with a wide array of animal cases and emergencies. She stayed all night with our dog even though they typically close at 2am. She helped arrange vet care for our dog for the rest of the weekend until she would be back. She tried everything she could think of to save our dog. She also watched our dog, looked for change, looked for response to medicine and accounted for all of that. She made time to talk to us during this process between triaging patients and emergency surgeries. She cared about how the entire experience was going to affect our family, including our children. Her team also cared greatly for our dog, nursed her back to health, did extra research to look into her rather obscure condition, they went above and beyond. Dr. Farmer made calls to other vets about our dog, did research, and put so much effort into making her better. She also is extremely reasonable and upfront about pricing. When I left our dog in her care I was given an itemized view of what we were looking at and told by her staff she is amazing at staying within those ranges. She is intelligent, compassionate, and reasonable. I cannot thank her and her team for saving our dog enough. The smile on my daughter’s face to know her dog was able to come home will stay with me forever. If you need ER vet care this is the only place in Kansas City to go!

A shout out to Dr Kelly Farmer and staff for the care and wisdom demonstrated in the treatment of my 12 year old dog 17 days ago. I had tried another service the day before that really didn’t address the issues my dog had and didn’t care when I called back the next morning. But Dr Kelly and staff pressed in on helping my very sick dog and got her a med IV that put her on the road for healing. She now eats and keeps food and water down and has the most energy I’ve seen since our adoption 4 months ago. Thank you KCAE. I recommend every animal lover to keep them in mind

Super impressed with this clinic. My Leo had a reaction to his second dose of vaccines and Dr. Kelly Farmer & her team treated Leo with urgency and got him back home with in the same night. Could not thank them enough ❤️

I would never suggest taking your dog here the wait was horrible we waited over 2 hours just to see the vet and I understand emergency vets are busy but waiting over 2 hours was to long while we had other dogs and pets at home, our dog was very uncomfortable the entire time we were there and they was very scared around the vet. Definitely trust your dogs intuition if your dog is scared in a place they should be comfortable in while being taken care of. Please look for different places before coming here i would have rather drove an hour to kansas for a 24 hour emergency vet clinic before I brought ny pet here if I would have known how the vet here was like.

Dr. Farmer and her staff were wonderful for me and our dog. Our dog is being treated for heartworms, and I was afraid her heart felt like it wasn't functioning properly, and our regular vet recommended I go to KC Animal Emergency. When I arrived, they were *really*, *really* busy, but I feel like the staff triaged patients, and set priorities, appropriately. For our dog, we discussed the situation, and I opted to leave for a couple of hours while they handled other animals, and I came back about 11:00 after they had performed an ultrasound and determined our dog was in no immediate danger. I'm glad there's an "after hours" vet resource up north!
