Pet Emergencies - are you prepared?

On Sunday 4.29.12, Sissy (12 wks old) had to have emergency surgery to remove an object from her intestine and we took her to Carolina Veterinary Specialists in Greensboro, NC. I have nothing but praise for the staff and the facilities. I was really impressed with the way they kept me informed and updated as to what was going on with Sissy (better than a hospital does for human patients imo). They are open 24/7 and I was encouraged to call anytime to check on Sissy which I did. I couldnt sleep and I called at 2:00 in the morning to speak with a tech and one time spoke with a vet . Sissy was there 2 nights and imo she received excellent care. I recommend them highly if you have a problem your regular vet cannot handle. FYI during the week they are a regular animal hospital in addition to ER.

The address is:

Carolina Veterinary Specialists

In the Portland, Oregon area - Dove Lewis gets all of the media attention - but I take my kitties to the Emergency Veternary Clinic in Tualatin.
(funny how often they like to wait to get sick until the regular vet is closed. )

This place is fabulous - once saved my in-laws kitty cat when she was very sick with pancreatitis. Address is: 19314 SW Mohave Ct Tualatin, OR 97062
