Always Come Back. – After my cat was diagnosed, and given a prescription for medication (thank god she didn't need surgery), the assistant showed me how to "pill" my cat and answered all of my (very tired three-in-the-morning) questions about how much bland diet to feed her, what times of day, etc. etc. etc.

Thank You – Dogs and cats are expensive, and when they get sick on the weekend, it's going to be even more costly. Pet owners who don't understand this are likely to be frustrated with E.C. Emergency Clinic. I adopted a dog from a legit rescue on Tuesday, and it was horribly sick by Thursday. When I took it into a ""regular"" vet, they tentatively diagnosed her as having pain from her spay stitches. Wrong. By early Saturday morning, I knew my dog was worse than ever, and I took her to EC Emergency Clinic. The assistant was s... read more

Thanks Much – I took my dog to other clinics trying to find out why in the world he was acting like he was 90. He wouldn't eat and was loosing weight fast. The other doctors said the end was near but Dr Corrigan figured out that he had Addisons disease. It is incurable but a cheap pill you can get anywhere solved the problem. Why didn't the others figure this out? If I had gone to Emerald City first, I would have saved my self a ton of money and allot of sleepless nights. My Boy and I were treated like we were important. I'd... read more

They patiently and warmly give me answers – When I call for an update on the dog, they patiently and warmly give me answers. They call when any treatment plans change. They let me know what to expect in the next day or two. They helped me get an interest-free payment plan so I can afford to save and rehabilitate my pup. Most importantly, they genuinely care about both the dog and me, and it shows.

The assistant was so thoughtful and caring. Yes, they took my dogger to the back to be examined, but that's partially because they had to hook her up to an IV immediately. The vet (I forget her name) came out within a few minutes to tell me what tests they'd like to run, and all the possible outcomes. She was honest yet positive and supportive.

My golden retriever recently had an emergency surgery. I was nothing but impressed with the staff. They were amazing with my dog and were so kind to me during the process. Every single person I dealt with at the clinic was wonderful. Thank you Emerald City for the excellent care for my dog and the kindness you showed me during this difficult time.

Not shocked or bothered – I was neither shocked nor bothered by the price tag, which was around $415. Heck, a routine visit to the gynecologist costs me $200 (or would, if I didn't have health insurance) - why should I expect emergency services for my cat to be in any way cheap? When I think "emergency room" I think possibly $1,000's spent...

It seems like everyone either loves this place or hates it. While this is not my favorite place in the world (who loves the emergency room?!?), I feel I need to defend it a little. A lot of the negative reviews seem to come from people who are unwilling to accept that emergency medical care is expensive, period - whether the patient has two legs or four. I didn't think there was anything wrong with the way my cat (and I) were treated. The receptionist went through a list of questions for me and listened to my answers careful... read more

I feel a need to further my positive shout out to this place. The staff very lovingly took care of my beloved dog during her final hours. In the process, they also took care of me. I thank them for their compassion toward me and my puppy. Their understanding helped me through one of the worst evenings I've ever experienced. Should you ever need urgent care for your pet, I highly recommend this clinic.
