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.
As an emergency clinician, Dr. Holley “Jo” Eike enjoys working on new diabetes cases and the client conversations relating to this condition. She also finds wound management and laceration repair cases particularly gratifying.
Dr. Eike’s hobbies include fitness and longbow archery. She has three cats, Smokey, Thetford and Teton, and a ball python, Britney Spears.
Dr. Jennifer Munkres’ favorite type of veterinary work is that which truly changes a pet’s life for the better – and seeing owners elated that their beloved pet is returning home to them.
Her special interests include cytology, hematology, stabilizing and treating animals in shock and critically ill pets, all things related to ultrasounds and learning technical procedures like pericardiocentesis.
Dr. Munkres’ family includes her husband and their two cats and two dogs. She enjoys learning to play alto saxophone, exercising with her personal trainer, pistol shooting, reading and working on her fixer-upper home.
Dr. Chad Powers enjoys all aspects of emergency medicine, particularly trauma.
Dr. Powers and his wife like sharing their love of the outdoors with their son and daughter. Camping and hiking are two of the family’s favorite pastimes.
Dr. Rider enjoys any being around horses, reading, star gazing and volunteer work.
We know an unexpected trip to the emergency pet hospital can be stressful, and we want you to be prepared so you have one less thing to worry about. Our entire BluePearl team will be with you every step of the way.
