Description From a small, after-hours emergency clinic to a fully staffed, specialty veterinary hospital group with ‘round-the-clock emergency care, AERA has come a long way. In 1977, a dedicated and visionary group of veterinarians founded the Animal Emergency Group, a center designed to treat after-hours veterinary emergencies by creating a fully-staffed animal emergency medical facility. These doctors realized that rapid growth of the local pet population, along with broad technological advances in veterinary medicine, demanded a state-of-the-art facility to address the urgent and critical needs of beloved pets in their community. The Animal Emergency Group thus became one of the first hospitals dedicated to small animal emergency care in the Uni...

This is a fantastic practice. The staff are amazing, from doctors, nurses, and techs to office workers. Dr. Straus is an incredible clinician (I wish I had a human internist as good!) and our dog adores him and his colleagues. We are so grateful for the prompt care and careful follow up provided to Sam the dog as we try to get his GI disease under control.

I am very grateful to all the nurses and doctors that provided care of my Bruno while he was there. The surgery team is amazing and Dr. Brophy is truly one of the best surgeons I have had the pleasure of knowing. I knew he was in great hands with them. I can’t thank them all enough for taking such good care of my dog. He is now home and back to being his normal self. Bruno loves everyone there and says thank you for helping me again after I was naughty. Thank you all so much for everything you do. ❤️❤️❤️

Excellent experience. All staff members and the doctor were wonderful. The doctor clearly explained everything and provided us with options for treating our Maltese, Giulietta. He was very reassuring that she would be okay. The pharmacy director was also great. She took the time to explain exactly how to dispense the medication and also provided marked syringes with the medicines to ensure that we give Giulietta the proper dosages. Also, the facility was extremely clean. I highly recommend going to this Animal Emergency center if you pet becomes sick. With gratitude, Joyce Minardi.

It's been a few months since I came here with my dog, Scout, and I wanted to recognize this facility for how they treated my baby girl and myself during our visit here, as I ultimately ended up putting Scout down. They were so kind, empathetic and professional during the visit. Scout had been struggling really badly for a few days and we had taken her to my vet and wasn't able to get a good diagnosis of what was going on. Ultimately, I decided to go to this facility on emergency on the weekend, and after examination and ultra sound, the doctor let me know what was going on with her and how bad it was. I thought she was really helpful in giving me all the information, and unfortunately, had to make a really tough decision. The facility really helped ease the experience and were incredibly compassionate and supportive. That was a really tough day and I am very appreciative of the professionalism of the staff and especially the treating vet - she was very kind.

The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful. They make certain to greet you when you arrive and acknowledge your leaving. The care my pet and I received from Dr Chang and his staff was exceptional. Dr Chang explained the procedure for treatment and had the treatment dates scheduled for us. He made certain I understood what to expect once the treatments were over. Every step of the way he asked questions about my pet's reaction to the therapy treatment. He was concerned for my pet's well-being.

UPDATE! Dr.Jung has now successfully done both my cats Meadow & Kisses. I am beyond satisfied and he is so kind, honest and very knowledgeable. Both my cats are doing so well. Need a oral surgeon for your fur baby honestly Dr. Jung is the best! Thank you again! From the moment I walked in the staff was welcoming and accommodating. My baby girl Meadow needed full mouth extraction due to her stomatitis. Before surgery I was notified of what procedures needed to be done and what time medication to give. The staff explained it thoroughly and if I had questions they asked the doctor and got back to me quickly, which is amazing communication. Dr. Jung is.fantastic! He explained everything to me and even followed up me to check on meadow. He did an amazing job and I must say it's been 2 weeks and she has such an amazing improvement..Remember every cat is different so results may vary..Thank you to Dr. Jung's Dental assistant as well, she was so nice and explained all my concerns as well. Unfortunately i will be back as I have a second cat that needs treatment as well. I am not worried because Dr. Jung and staff are amazing! Thank you All!
