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. Brittany Hayes is most interested in working with blocked cats and increasing her knowledge in pain management solutions.
Dr. Hayes enjoys reading, hiking, riding her bike, being outdoors and spending time with her three cats, a Maine coon named Dayman, a domestic shorthair named Troll and a Persian named Charlie.
Dr. Kelly Himeback’s clinical interests include stabilizing and treating poly traumas, toxin ingestions and acute abdomens, such as GDV or septic peritonitis. She loves the feeling she gets when she sees a pet who comes in in critical condition, getting to walk out of the hospital with their family.
In her free time, Dr. Himeback enjoys hiking with her two labrador retrievers, spending time with her family, running road races, skiing, biking, reading and baking.
Dr. Melendez enjoys creating art, reading and traveling. She has a cat named Kyo.
Dr. Sarah Muhrer has over 10 years of emergency care experience. She finds multi-trauma cases and toxicities the most gratifying to treat.
Outside of work, Dr. Muhrer loves competing in competitive dog sports with her border collie Epi and rescue dog Cadence. She also has a cat named Artemis and a turtle named Carapace who she has taught to do tricks.
When she’s not with her talented pets, Dr. Muhrer spends her time traveling and playing ultimate frisbee.
