Our baby Rue had complications from her GDV surgery and AMC was able to get her healthy within the week. Great, friendly staff that helped treat her pneumonia, they kept us informed every step of the way. Shout out to all the staff but specially Dr.Wiles, Dr.Chamber, & Dr.Stroop; they were so courteous and had the best bedside manor
I never imagined writing this, especially about an institution where we have had only positive experiences in the past. That history makes this failure all the more shocking. We brought our dog, Dr. Watson, to the Schwarzman Animal Medical Center ER during an acute pain crisis following extensive dental surgery. He was experiencing prolonged, episodic screaming that clearly followed a pain pattern. Both we and his primary care veterinarian repeatedly raised concern that this was severe neuropathic pain, not seizures. Despite this, the attending physician quickly anchored on a seizure-based explanation and failed to meaningfully reconsider it even after: Our primary care vet spoke directly with the ER doctor twice, advocating for pain-directed care. And our specialists later confirmed the presentation was inconsistent with seizures. No meaningful pain intervention was attempted. No pain-directed CRI was offered. Instead, our dog was treated with anticonvulsants and discharged still actively symptomatic, without ever interrupting the pain cycle that caused the emergency visit. Most distressingly, we were told ON CHRISTMAS that his condition was likely due to a BRAIN TUMOR and that we should prepare for humane euthanasia. This was presented as a likely outcome, not a remote possibility, but something to prepare for as it was most likley imminent. As a direct result, my husband had to immediately leave work and run uptown on the most lucrative night of the year for his profession, resulting in lost wages while we were already facing mounting medical expenses. This diagnosis later proved to be unsupported. Additional concerns included improper handling despite IVDD precautions, failure to administer his final pain medication before discharge, missing personal items, and exorbitant charges despite no effective pain relief being provided. We asked AMC to reconsider its refusal to remit charges for this visit, given the severity of these failures. To date, they have declined. Emergency medicine is complex. But pain should be treated while diagnoses are explored, catastrophic possibilities must be communicated with care, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, owners and referring veterinarians should be treated as PARTNERS. How an institution responds to clear failure matters. If I had listened to that attending physician and kept my dog there for 3 days while they explored other possibilities, and anchored into this neurology disorder, I'd not only have a much larger bill, but the VERY REAL possibility of a dead dog in regards to them suggesting euthanasia even though they had NO EVIDENCE of a brain tumor. We invite AMC to respond publicly and explain how this aligns with the standards they promote.
Our cat, Percy, our 13 year old sweet boy, as we called him, was given the greatest care recently when he was found to have cancer throughout his body. Everyone -- at the front desk, the dispensary, and of course the vets including Dr. Jennifer Huck, Dr. Joseph Belgrade, and Dr. Ezra Frager -- who was doctor who helped send Percy over the rainbow bridge on Christmas Eve -- treated him -- and us -- with the utmost care and concern. We are grateful for all they did for us and our sweet boy. The comfort room they provided our family in the ER while we waited with Percy for his final journey was also incredibly soothing. I have and will recommend the AMC to anyone in need of regular, special, or emergency care for their pet. Thank you.
The Animal Medical Center saved my 12-year-old Golden Retriever’s life, and I can’t thank them enough. My regular vet had been monitoring a small mass on her spleen, and after her third ultrasound, they recommended non-urgent spleen removal. That same evening, the mass ruptured, and my dog was in severe pain, unable to move or stand. From the moment we arrived at AMC around 11 PM, the team was exceptional. They immediately evaluated my dog, confirmed the rupture, and prepared for major surgery. Post-operation, she spent three days in the ICU, and the doctors provided multiple daily updates, which kept me reassured during such a traumatic time. Visiting her was heartbreaking—she was frail, heavily medicated, and unable to walk or eat initially. Despite a few complications, the 24/7 care team addressed every issue with expertise and compassion. After, just 48 hours after coming home, she was 99% her normal self—energetic, with a strong appetite and walking normally. The professionalism, expertise, and care from the AMC team were outstanding. A special shoutout to Dr. Langfitt, who was an incredible support every step of the way. Thank you, AMC, for saving my beloved dog!
There are truly no words that can encompass the amount of gratitude I have for this establishment!!! Recently, someone dear to me had to take his puppy to the Schwarzman ER. He was very close to dying. The doctor stated had he not been brought in he would had died. As soon as we got there they rushed him, literally, the attendant ran to the back to have him seen immediately!! Soon thereafter the doctor (unfortunately dont have her name 😕) came out and explained the state Lobo was in. He ended up being admitted to the I.C.U. and was there for 2 days. The communication provided by the attending doctors was above and beyond. The care and attention given to Lobo was superb!!! There are truly no words to express how thankful we are for everything and to everyone that treated Lobo! Thank you, thank you, thank you to all the doctors, nurses and staff for your love, care and attention. May God bless each and every one of you! And may you and your families receive ten-fold the love and care you gave. Lobo thanks you 🐶🥰
