If your vet is closed and you can't get in touch with them, this is the place to go. They will save your pets life, they will let you know the cost up front, but just know they are a LOT more expensive than your regular vet. This is an emergency clinic and you will pay emergency room prices. So make sure you are financially prepared for that before showing up because they DO WANT payment up front before they will care for your pet. With that said, once they've received payment, they will do everything they can to care for your pet. The downside to my experience is that when my pet was released within hours after having a major surgery, it was the day after a holiday and I had to try 4 other vet clinics before I found a vet that would take her in for after care. They also transferred my records to a vet that was closed, then the CD of her x-rays from her surgery was blank. They were waiting on multiple people at the same time because they require you and everyone else to pick up their pet by a set time in the morning or they charge you and additional fee. I felt like we were falling thru the cracks getting what we needed and rushed out the door because they were so focused on getting everyone out the door with their pets by the daily deadline. My experience was on a holiday weekend. So they have been short staffed and overwhelmed with additional pets from the long weekend.
