  The kind people at VRCC were able to help my cat when, like usual, all the 24/7 ER vets in the springs had long waits. The hour drive for me is SO worth it to know my baby is in good hands here!

  Our experience here has been with both the emergency and internal medicine departments. We’ve had positive experience with both. We brought our sassy sick cat in during a very serious point of her illness having been told that she has limited options and we need to put her down from a previous emergency center. The VRCC emergency vet and team eased our concerns and gave us hope by sharing a positive prognosis and a treatment plan that wouldn’t require long term inpatient care nor a need to put her down. She was kept overnight and seen by Dr. Groth an internal medicine specialist who saw her the next morning and evaluated her bloodwork. She gave reassurance by discussing a routine procedure for our cat’s diagnosis and an illustration of what longterm care looks like. With a short phase of feeding tube and medication management, our cat is able to have a manageable life again. We still see the internal medicine staff on a routine basis to monitor our cat’s bloodwork and despite how difficult our baby can be they do everything they can to keep her comfortable and are extremely patient with her. We are truly grateful for that. What we also appreciate is how collaborative Dr. Groth is in the care and treatment of our cat and support various options to our lifestyle and our cats temperament. She is very knowledgeable and I trust her guidance with every decision we’ve made. They are a busy facility but honestly with the serious care they do from emergency visits to routine appointments it’s understandable. Be patient when you are waiting for appointments and have trust during emergency situations they prioritize and triage appropriately. I also want to recognize the friendliness of the front desk staff who are super attentive and have positive attitudes during all hours. Medications can be picked up at all hours which makes it convenient. We highly recommend bringing your fur babies here!

  I brought my son to you in December of 2025 to diagnose him. You never once asked me about him. He did nit allow his feet to be touched. I could not brush him. I had him groomed under sedation every 4 months. He could not be forced into compliance without a fight. You told me he was difficult. I loved that dog more than anything. I put him to sleep since you diagnosed him with lymphoma. The treatment was swallowing pills which he would nit do. I was blessed to live with this rescue for 8 1/2 years. I still cry for my loss of such a special boy. I hope this note will touch someone so the next time a dog comes in that u treat them like they are special because they all are. You treated mu dog like just another number. I will never use your facility again.

  the front office staff was superb. it’s a tough job and I have all the respect for them. Dr Rump was kind but also misled me into admitting my sick senior cat telling me he is middle aged (at 13) and would be fine and has so many years ahead then he deteriorated and then I was convinced to keep him admitted and treated even though i asked about age and life expectancy and quality but was reassured he would be ok with the treatment and then $ 5,000 + later he is dying … it’s all just a money grab .. i feel bad for overnight MD and crew because they are pushed into these situations and have to try their hardest to save these pets when they probably wouldn’t have recommended that treatment

  We had a wonderful experience this morning. Despite arriving 15 minutes early, we were seen right away. Dr. Lee and other staff had a wonderful bedside manner and explained everything clearly and thoroughly. My dog, who absolutely hates the vet, needed an ultrasound on her heart. My daughter and I were allowed to not only be with her in the ultrasound room, but also to feed her treats during so that she was completely distracted and at ease. This was the most positive experience my dog has ever had at the vet.
