Mission Veterinary Emergency & Specialty

My cat, Milo, got his paw stuck in between the panels of our garage door and I was in a panic! My local Emergency Vet was overwhelmed and could not see us. I drove 2 hours each way to have my cat seen at Mission Vet and emergency . They got him in right away and gave him some pain medicine. Everyone was very helpful and kind especially Dr. Houghton. Milo is on the mend and nothing was broken thankfully!! I have used their services before and would recommend them anyone in need. Thank you for helping my Milo♥️

Such an amazing team. Front desk and nurses/techs were so nice and helpful. Our puppy has a severe congenital heart condition so the news we received was devastating, but the cardiologist was so kind and compassionate and very thorough. There was no rush to the conversation and he gave my fiance and me confidence that this team will take good care of our baby during surgery. So thankful❤️ 100% recommend for any emergent or specialized care.

I hope I never have to visit an emergency veterinary hospital again, but if I do, I won't hesitate to bring my dog back to Mission Veterinary Emergency & Specialty. My dog, Violet, was brought in in critical condition with what was ultimately diagnosed as an Addisonian crisis. She required several days in the ICU with around-the-clock monitoring, blood pressure support, constant bloodwork, and incredible nursing care. There were moments when we truly didn't know if she was going to make it. The entire team treated her as if she were their own. Every doctor, technician, assistant, and client service representative we interacted with was compassionate, patient, and genuinely invested in her recovery. They answered our questions, kept us updated, celebrated every small improvement with us, and never made us feel like we were just another case. The team all expressed their love for Violet, and how much they would miss her (while still thrilled she was getting to come home!) Emergency veterinary medicine is expensive, there's no getting around that. Our bill was over $5,000, and that's a significant amount of money. But after seeing the level of expertise, the advanced equipment, the 24-hour monitoring, and the dedication of the staff who quite literally saved Violet's life, I understand what that cost represents. I would make the same decision again without hesitation. Today, Violet is home, eating with enthusiasm, sleeping in her own (our) bed, and continuing her recovery because of the care she received at Mission Veterinary Emergency & Specialty. Thank you for giving us more time with our girl. We will never forget what you did for our family.

I have been here multiple times over the years with various dogs and have always had a wonderful experience. But now I live out of town and have not had the need for an emergency vet service, but my little rescue pop developed a cardiac problem and in my small town, there are no specialist for that. They recommended I go to Mission med vet to see Dr. Murphy. So we made the trip and everything went perfectly. I couldn’t have been happier and my dog was very comfortable. The tech who checked us in was very thorough, polite, and professional. Dr. Murphy was fantastic! He took his time to explain what he thought was going on with my girl and started her on some medication. So far so good she has not had any more repeat episodes! Sure they are a little bit more expensive, but they do have a facility that’s open 24/7 and I’m sure that is expensive to do. Plus, Dr. Murphy is a specialist in cardiology. If I have the need, I will definitely take my pets back to Mission med vet. Thank you for everything!

I took my dog here in March for Enrlichiosis because we couldn't get him in to his regular vet. They immediately took him away from me and out of sight and I had no idea where they took him. He's always had separation anxiety from me, so I could only imagine how scared he was without me. They called us back and told us he was in bad shape and his condition was guarded. I was allowed to see him briefly before we left becuase they said the needed to keep him for 2 days. According to the rules, I was only allowed to see him twice a day for fifteen minutes, even though he was in guarded condition and it wasn't looking good. Dr. Roach gave me a ppor report on him the next morning, then changed her mind in the afternoon. She informed me that once things were corrected, he would start showing improvement and we could take him home. On the way to see him at 4, she called and told me he coded. When I got there, he was gone. I couldn't be with my boy in his final moments, and I wasn't able to be with him when he needed me most. His medical reports say he was vocalizing a lot. I know he was howling andcrying for me, but I couldn't be there to comfort him becuase of their rules. I tried calling to follow up about what happened with Dr. Roach, but she refused to talk to em or call me back. The receptionist questioned me about what I wnated with her and fielded the call for her. I wanted answers for closure, but she hid behind the woman at the desk and wouldn't talk to me. I shouldn't have been kept from my dog on his last days and it was unprofessional of Dr. Roach to hide from me and refuse to talk to me. Beware of this clinic if your dog is in bad shape and they need to keep them. They don't give visitation exceptions if your dog is critical. I don't recommend them.
