Big Sky Animal Medical Center

Over the weekend, my standard poodle (Spice) was bit in the face by a rattlesnake. Our usual vet was closed but directed us to Big Sky. There were multiple emergency patients at the time, but the vet tech and vet still made the time to patiently answer our many frazzled questions and address our concerns thoroughly. He stayed overnight, we were able to get updates that night and the next morning, and they gave us very detailed home care info. His swelling went 85% down within 24 hours of being home. Two days after coming home, he's becoming himself again. We are so grateful to Big Sky for helping us all through this terrifying situation. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

We had to take our 14 year old mini schnauzer there as she was having some problems walking. She has disc problems in her back and apparently did something like pinched a nerve. The attending Veterinarian Cathy Davis was awesome! All the staff were kind, considerate and knowledgeable. I was very satisfied with the treatment my little Angel received.

My dog is afraid of everything including people. I was able to stay in my car until a room was ready for me. The vet I dealt with was very patient she took her time letting my dog to stay calm. She was able to assess the problem without much contact. I was able to take my dog to the car and went back in to take care of the bill. All in all it was not a bad experience.

I use this vet for emergency services and they are wonderful each time. Our dog Walter was able to live a longer life due to the emergency surgery and care received here. More recently I took my cat in on Monday for labored breathing and a high breath rate. They were able to get him stabilized and on a medication plan. Dr. Richardson has been knowledgeable, helpful, and compassionate each time we’ve had to see her. The vet techs are also wonderful. If you are having a pet emergency I would recommend this vet.

I had to bring my beautiful baby King from Helena to Great Falls to be seen because we have no emergency vets at my clinic. Unfortunately King was too sick and passed over the rainbow bridge. The staff were so kind and caring, they allowed us time to say goodbye and allowed us to wait for my son to get there from Helena to say goodbye also. Jeni was our nurse and she was so kind and gave King lots of love, I can’t remember the doctors name, but she was amazing also! Thank you all so much. The Miller family ♥️🌈🐾
