My mom and I had to rush our sweet cat Caleb, that was having violent seizures out of the blue. The veterinarian and staff were ready for him when we got there. Unfortunately, we had to have him euthanized after what the veterinarian explained what kind of life he could experience. On top of that, he already incurred brain damage from his fever. The veterinarian and staff were so kind and compassionate and gave all the time we needed to say goodbye to him as he took his last breath. Again, thank you Jefferson animal hospital!
My 10 year old lab had complications from a mass removal. She had to have an emergency surgery bc her incision came apart performed by Dr. Shumar. She was amazing. My dog was seen here until her wound completely closed up which took about a month. They took such good care of her. Everyone was over the top nice. She stayed at the hospital for a total of 4 nights. I was able to call and check on her at anytime. Dr. Cheever was one of the best and thorough vets I’ve ever seen. Thank to all the nurses and staff who helped in her recovery!
I came here with no prior knowledge or experience with any animal ER when my cat was having some severe stomach problems. Aside from the stressful circumstances that lead me here, I have nothing but good things to say about my experience.
Dr. Shumar took care of Levi and I’m very thankful she did. She was very kind, informative, and transparent about his immediate needs vs things that could wait for a follow up vet visit. Given the cost of an ER vs his regular vet, I am so grateful to have had help navigating the fine line between saving money and ensuring the comfort/health of my cat.
The interior is very clean and pretty. It might not matter as much to others,...read full review
