Pet emergencies can be scary – we’re here to help you handle them.
We understand that seeing your pet sick, hurt or in distress can be stressful – especially if you don’t know what’s wrong. Fortunately, our experienced ER clinicians are prepared to take action and help.
Acting quickly in an emergency may save your pet’s life.
If your pet is experiencing an emergency, you’ll have an entire veterinary team helping them so you can get back to what matters most – spending precious moments together.
Experience makes all the difference.
Our emergency team is made up of veterinarians, vet technicians and assistants, and support staff with rigorous training and experience in specialty medicine. The team works hand in hand to provide the comprehensive, compassionate care your pet needs and deserves. Because we’re a multidisciplinary hospital, the team can consult the expertise of other specialty departments, too.
Dr. Katelyn Doolittle is dedicated to providing compassionate, empathetic care to every patient while ensuring pet owners feel informed and supported throughout their visit. She believes that clear communication and a collaborative approach help families make the best decisions for their pets.
Dr. Doolittle’s professional interests include small animal surgery, veterinary behavior, and diagnostic cytology. Prior to emergency medicine, she practiced in general practice, where she developed a strong foundation in dermatology, otology and nutrition. She enjoys the challenge of solving diagnostic puzzles and is passionate about continually expanding her knowledge to provide the highest quality care.
One thing Dr. Doolittle doesn’t mind is hearing jokes about her last name. She knows that veterinary visits – especially emergency ones – can be stressful, and if seeing “Dr. Doolittle” brings a smile or helps put someone at ease, she’s happy to embrace it.
When she’s not caring for patients, Dr. Doolittle is busy keeping up with her two energetic toddlers and her four dogs – Marnie, Mia, Nala and Rocky. She enjoys spending time with her family, gardening, swimming and listening to just about every genre of music. Whether at home or in the clinic, she values making meaningful connections and bringing warmth and positivity to those around her.
Dr. Eugene Ervin has worked as a veterinarian in a mixed animal practice, at a private veterinary research facility and at a busy small animal practice. He is always prepared to perform needed surgeries, whether it is a simple laceration or a gastric dilation volvulus.
Dr. Ervin enjoys hunting, fishing, camping and hiking. He and his wife have two boys and two girls, not to mention a Great Pyrenees named Bert, a cat named Tiki, three Nubian goats and a flock of chickens, ducks and geese.
Dr. Brianna Thorne is interested in all aspects of emergency medicine, especially critical patients.
Dr. Thorne enjoys watching baseball, fostering dogs and kittens and spending time with her family and pets.
