“An Emergency Animal Care clinic located in Grand Terrace, California.”
Service Good For Our GangI have been to this clinic two times personally, not including several other family visits. On my last visit I had been attacked by the neighbor's German Shepard, it tore me up bad. I got a lot of stitches with drains in several places. They got me right in. Just like a regular ER - the most serious cases get priority. The counter staff has been pleasant on most visits. The Vets are competent, professional, sensitive, the pricing is not inflated for after hours services. There is no other place in town with this service and I'm glad it's avalable. This is an Emergency Clinic only. posted: August 8th, 2008 |
Not spectacular, but the only ER in the I.E.I went to this place a long time ago, when I was about 2 years old. I don't remember much except it was very crowded, and full of barking dogs that made me nervous. My meowmy says that she was irritated because the vet tech was scolding her about my condition. I had gone to my regular vet's office about a week prior, and suddenly came down with lots of sneezes and a very runny nose. My meowmy was worried that I might have something very serious, and since it was a weekend, she took me into the Animal Emergency Clinic because we lived nearby and she had seen it when driving to work one day. The vet tech asked my meowmy if I had been around other cats recently, and my meowmy said no. But then when the vet tech heard that I had been to my regular vet's office, she said to my meowmy, "I thought you said the cat hadn't been in contact with other cats!" Well duh, I hadn't been. I didn't come in contact with any other cats the day I had seen my vet. My meowmy thought it was kind of lame, like how dare somebody suggest that she is not doing what's in the best interest for her kitty. Anyway, the veterinarian at this place was very nice, we don't remember her name, but it was a woman. She wanted to do a lot of tests on me that my meowmy thought were unnecessary (like a blood panel). We just did the X-ray of my lungs (and I still have the film to this day!) and then when that turned up normal we just paid and left. We weren't even offered antibiotics. It wasn't the greatest experience I've ever had, but honestly, where else are you able to go if you've got an emergency? I have done an extensive search all over the Inland Empire and this ER is the only one within a 20-mile radius of my house. If I had some money I would open up my own ER and treat all the animals with such great care that everybody would come to my place instead! (Incidentally, the clinic has moved and is no longer on Barton Road. The new address is 12022 La Crosse Ave., Grand Terrace.) posted: May 3rd, 2008 |
Two excelent experiencesour first visit to the emergency clinic was with our newly adopted Great Dant Thunder. Upon arriving in the clinic which was packed on a sunday afternoon the receptionist talked with us immediately about his symptoms and went back to get vet techs to see him. We had a feeling he had bloated and they did too, we were bumped to the head of the line and they took him back immediately. Shortly after the vet came and talked to us and informed us he had indeed bloated. We made the very painful decision to have him put down and the vet was very caring and understanding. We got to say goodbye and our friend was sent to sleep. They discounted our bill and only charged us for his pain medication and not the trocorization and only one xray instead of the two they took. Our second visit was for Diesel our Dane puppy. He had gotten into something and punctured his back leg. He was bleeding but not seriously so we had about an hour wait, more critical dogs were coming in and we didnt mind waiting to see the vet. We were allowed to wait in a room and that was nice. They put a staple in his leg and gave him antibiotics that were less expensive than our normal vet would have charged! Once again the vet was very nice and attentive. I really like living so close to a quality emergency clinic especially with the danes being so prone to bloating. |
