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. Caroline Andrews finds laceration repairs, urethral obstruction and trauma cases the most gratifying to treat.
In her free time, Dr. Andrews enjoys riding her horse, Cupid, going fishing on the boat and baking sweet treats. She shares her home with her boyfriend, Charles, and their two miniature dachshunds, Murphy and Hamlet.
If Dr. Andrews had any other job besides being a veterinarian, she would be a wedding cakebaker. She is most excited about being in Charleston for the amazing food and spending time with her family.
Dr. Katharine Cappe finds endocrine diseases, canine reproduction and reproductive emergencies the most gratifying to treat.
Dr. Cappe enjoys the company of her two corgis, Hank and Daphne, two French bulldogs, Quinn and Eloise, and her rescue cat, Hugh Mungus. In her free time, she plays soccer with a local league and competes in reining with her horse, Wallas Corona.
