I'm writing this review more from a business perspective so that I can attempt to take out all the negative emotions from my recent visit. Firstly, if your animal doesn't have VISIBLE signs of trauma, DO NOT TAKE YOUR ANIMAL HERE. My mother's dog had not eaten in 2 days and was somewhat lethargic and throwing up. Unfortunately, it fell on a weekend and had no choice but to go here. Since the dog's issues were internal, we didn't know how "urgent" her condition was, but just because her injuries weren't visible, doesn't m... read more
We had to take our dog to MedVet Akron, transferred her from VCA Great Lakes ER in Warrensville, Ohio. She had low blood sugar and needed to be on an IV dextrose drip overnight. VCA didn’t have a vet after 1:00 a.m. so they had us transport her to MedVet Akron. They charged us $3,000 before they even took her inside! We were not allowed inside because of Covid restrictions. They ended up keeping her overnight and the reports from the vet were that her prognosis was “grim” and they weren’t giving us hope that she would recove... read more
They are NOT a 24/7 facility. They may be open but if you take your pet in on a Sunday it will be forced to wait until Monday morning for proper treatment. Our dog is paralyzed because they waited to perform an emergency surgery. Our dog had IVDD. Every website or research we have looked at states the first 24 hours is critical for a good outcome. Our regular vet also said it is critical. Yet they told us an overwhelming body of evidence shows otherwise. When asked to provide this "evidence" they could not and refused to do ... read more
Business response:
Hi, Sherry. We're sorry that you were unhappy with your experience, but this was not at our location. We do hope your dog is doing better. We will pass along your message to the hospital you were visiting.
MedVet Emergency made a nightmare even worse. Our 13 year old Aussie bloated around midnight. Recognizing the signs and knowing they only have a few hours before certain death, we rushed him to the Medvet Emergency in Copley, 20 minutes from our home.. Called in route and they were waiting for our arrival. Xray confirmed a flipped stomach. And here is were it became even more of a nightmare. Do you know that this EMERGENCY clinic is NOT prepared for emergencies? It takes 1-2 hours to call in a surgeon - they do not st... read more

We went to MedVet this afternoon because our cat, Schrodinger, was lethargic and in pain suddenly. They listened, got her in right away, and were very attentive and supportive. I would recommend this place for urgent care pet needs. We will bring her back for tests if needed. Thank you to the staff! You do a great job.
MedVet Akron saved our Daisy. Everyone was so kind and efficient while she was in their care. They are a top notch operation.
We drove from Dover Ohio to put our family dog of 12 years to sleep it has been the most difficult of time .
