Kanawha Valley Veterinary Emergency Hospital

This place was amazing tonight! We took our dog in because he got very sick very fast and unfortunately he had parvo. They were so nice and honest. They told us our options and unfortunately the best option for our pup was to be put down 😭 they made the process easy and comforting for all of us! Thank you

We took in our 4year old a chiweenie dog. She was experiencing severe bruising and swelling of her neck. Thankfully they were not busy when we got there and they took her straight back. The staff was so kind and compassionate toward her. They were so helpful to us to figure out what was going on. After some testing and thinking back to the past week or two, we suspected she had gotten into some rat poison we found in the walls of our home while remodeling our kitchen. It was a very good possibility after looking at her symptoms that she had ingested some just a week or two prior. They were so attentive and prompt in caring for her. Hopefully the medicine they prescribed works and she will be on the road to recovery. 10/10 recommend this place the night that we went which was 11/15

Cannot say enough good things! The staff, the care, and the transparency of the prices are just a few to mention. Our kiddo was very sick early one morning and was placed in the ICU. The medical staff worked very quickly to take care of our boy. He was never alone and we were kept updated by both the Vet and her team. *Louie Gibson says thank you!!* The estimate was easy to understand and did not feel like we were being taken advantage of -- but rather we had realistic expectations. Granted, our pup is 15 lbs but we've experienced much higher bills for services that provide MUCH less quality in care. From an ICU nurse and his family -- thank you guys for everything. You gave the care to our four-legged family the way I'd want my two-legged family cared for. ❤️

My animal passed away unfortunately.. but they handled it very promptly, compassionately.. they were amazing with my children. Even my special needs child. They allowed my children to say goodbye.. they were very reasonably priced, and charged me much less than what they originally said.. it was a very sad day yesterday but they handled the experience amazingly. I'm glad my friend recommended I go there.

I wish I could actually rate our visit, but we got turned away. I drove there from Man for my dog Dixie to get care after being in a dog fight. The receptionist told me they were not taking any more animals today unless they were previous patients of theirs. She said they had one vet who was in surgery. And that I could drive even further to Huntington or Fairmont. I already brought my dog in pain from 20 minutes past Man. I told her there was no way we could go even further. She said I could try again tomorrow. I told her no thanks. The pet owners in the waiting room even got a little upset that they wouldn't see Dixie because they said she was an emergency. One of the people waiting even asked the receptionist if Dixie could go in the place of her dog, and she was told no. I told them all thanks for trying to help and that I would try a regular local vet Monday and hope that her leg isn't too badly infected by then. I sat in my truck after that and cried for about 10 minutes before leaving the parking lot because I felt like I failed her. I added pics of her leg.
