About

The Animal ER of University Park, L.L.C. is staffed by veterinarians and licensed or highly experienced veterinary technicians who are physically present during all operating hours. The Animal ER is a well equipped facility with diagnostic, surgical and life-saving equipment. The Animal ER of University Park was created because the people of north Sarasota county and the entirety of Manatee county were having to travel too far for veterinary emergency care which at the time was located in south Sarasota county. The founders of the Animal ER recognized this need, and in November of 2002 opened the Animal ER to serve the people and pets of Manatee and north Sarasota counties.

They were great with my husband and I we were from out of state.. and our baby Gracie got sick and we had to put her down. I cried and sobbed and the Dr and the assistant held me. Hardest thing I ever had to do. We held Gracie until she took her last breath... they got us a paw print and a lock of her hair! Wonderful place

Business Response:

Peggy, thank you for the kind words in the midst of you sorrow. Gracie was an adorable little fluff ball. I know she will be missed. Hugs to you and your husband.

We took our sweet baby girl Izzy in on Monday night in a comatose state after ingesting way too many Advil. I can’t open a child proof bottle, but she did. Everyone we came in contact with was wonderful and so caring! They sent us updates and pictures every few hours which made us feel so much better. They were so good at letting us come visit and answered any question we had. Our 5 pound baby would not be alive today without the loving care she received from this terrific staff! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I had an excellent experience here! On Sunday I woke up about noon and when I walked into the kitchen I was horrified to find bloody diarrhea everywhere! My poor dog was was in the guest bathroom and there was blood all over the floor there as well. I scooped up Bailey in a towel and drove to Animal ER of University Park in a panic. I was sure he was dying. I was met by Cindy who was at the desk and she was so kind. Bailey had another episode right there and Cindy assured me that she had seen this many times and that he would be alright. I calmed down immediately. She brought us to a treatment room after alerting a doctor and stayed with us for a while. She pointed out that Bailey was alert, able to walk normally and though he was was panting a bit, he was breathing ok. When the doctor came in she took all his vitals and information. She suspected that he had hemorrhagic pancreatitis and explained things clearly and answered all my questions patiently. He needed to be hydrated and treated with antibiotics so they would need to keep him overnight. She assured me they would text me regular updates and photos and if I had any questions I could call anytime. The med tech took him from my arms. Just minutes later the doctor returned, went over the treatment plan and gave me an estimate that was not cheap, but was reasonable for an overnight stay on a Sunday at an ER. I received three text messages with photos of Bailey informing me about his progress and a "good night" text. They called and told me he was doing well and could go home. When I arrived the receptionist said that I had a 90$ refund! They gave me his meds and went over everything with me. Dr. S. and CVTech Teresa N. and everyone else I met - took a horrifying situation and turned it around to a very positive experience. Bailey had had hemorrhagic pancreatitis and he is well on his way to recovery. My regular Vet received a fax of Bailey's chart and I had a copy as well. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH!

Business Response:

********** Thank you so much for this wonderful review and more importantly for letting us know how Baily is doing. Our work in emergency medicine can be grueling but clients like you and patients like Baily are our reward. Thank you again.

One of our fur babies was a very bad epileptic and was having seizures,the Dr’s there found that he had swallowed a piece of a tennis ball and it got stuck in his intestines he needed surgery right away. After surgery it was touch and go as he is a very delicate dog because of his illness. No one was sure he was going to pull through EVERY Dr. And tech. That helped our boy we couldn’t be more then thankful for they kept us updated on his progress around the clock sent pictures at night we couldn’t have asked for more then what they did for him and us. That was a long time ago ......... But now when it was time for him to pass everyone there were just as caring and thoughtful to our baby and us as they were when he needed his operation. I can’t say how caring and compassionate, thoughtful and so much more everyone was to us and it was so helpful to us that day when we had to say goodbye to our beautiful beautiful fur baby that we felt that everyone at the ER were not strangers to us and cared for our boy when we couldn’t. Thank you to all the Dr’s and techs and staff at the animal er for us your the best we can’t thank you enough
