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. Gina Watzka’s clinical interests include anesthesia, internal medicine, preventative medicine, and pain management.
Dr. Watzka enjoys gardening, playing the clarinet and bassoon, and working on arts and crafts projects. She loves spending time with her family, including her three cats: Fraidy Cat, Pearl and Captain Crunch.
Dr. Kristen Woltman chose the veterinary profession at the age of 8 due to her love of animals and desire to help. She believes that pets are an extension of one’s family and values the opportunity to develop a relationship with both owners and pets.
In her spare time, Dr. Woltman enjoys hiking, yoga, and horseback riding.
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.
During an emergency, every second counts. If your pet is experiencing an emergency, call us so we can talk you through their situation and be with you.
Our goal is always for your pet to have the best chance at a complete recovery so they can return home with you, happy and healthy.
