Portland Veterinary Emergency and Specialty Care

"Brought my cat in because she opened her incision up after her spay. Everyone was so lovely! They were triaging urgent patients appropriately even though it seemed like a very busy night. Thank you to the doctor and the nurses for helping my Lulu! If you go to the ER please be patient. Pets are triaged and the most in need go first. I know people get frustrated with waiting but they took wonderful care of my little fur baby as well as other more urgent cases. Thank you all!"

"A month ago we brought our very sick dog here in the middle of the night and were received by an incredibly kind and knowledgeable team. She stayed overnight and had labs and imaging done and their team was extremely transparent and upfront about the cost. They gave us our options clearly and were understandable about financial hesitation. Our pet insurance rejected our claim to cover our dog's visit and Renee and the team at PVESC have been so helpful with our appeal. They are wonderful here, and while I hope we don't have to return with our dog any time soon, I know that she would be well cared for if we needed to."

"Professional, empathetic, and communicative. People will always remember how someone else made them feel, especially in an emergency. As a health care worker, I have tremendous respect and gratitude for the way my partner and I were received by the staff at Portland Veterinary Emergency the night that our cat was hit by a car. It was a heartbreaking night to lose someone who we loved so deeply, but I am so grateful for the kindness and professionalism that we were shown. Finn will have a memorial in our backyard, the place that he was the happiest."

"We brought our cat in for an emergency, completely unaware of what happened to her. She was rapidly failing, couldn’t meow, move or even pick her head up. Within 24 hours, after staying the night, she was back to herself and home. The day shift doctor, Dr. O’Brien was very knowledgeable, informative and compassionate. Calling us throughout the day to give us updates, even as little as “she’s eating and being sassy.” I couldn’t thank the staff enough for saving our girls life."

"We brought our pup here for an emergency and I can not say enough about the exemplary care that was provided. For the minute we walked in, to the following day, everyone that we encountered was compassionate and knowledgeable. The staff went above and beyond to provide the best care and comfort to our pup. They treated our pup with such dignity and provided us with clear and supportive answers. We are from out of state and were extremely fortunate to have found this practice. A special note of thanks to Dr Eifler and Dr Landry for their knowledge, professionalism and extraordinary compassion. Truly exceptional."
