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. Nathan Bodnar’s special interests include toxicology and endocrine emergencies.
Dr. Bodnar enjoys spending time with his wife and kids along with his dogs and cats. He also enjoys spending time outdoors hiking and exploring new areas.
Dr. Jennifer Cordova’s special interests include emergency medicine and critical care because every case is different and provides the opportunity to collaborate and learn something new. She finds emergency surgery gratifying, especially hemoabdomen splenectomies and repairing soft tissue lacerations and wounds.
Dr. Cordova enjoys traveling to national parks, trying new restaurants, and laying out by the pool. Her favorite state that she’s visited is Alaska. She has two Siberian huskies (Kaci and June Bug), three cats (Loki, Leela, and Logan), and a Sulcata tortoise (Appa).
Dr. Courtney Meason-Smith has a strong interest in dermatology research, such as skin microbiomes in healthy and allergic dogs and cats and fungal infectious diseases of small animals. She finds laceration repairs and abscess or wound management the most gratifying to treat.
Outside of work, Dr. Meason-Smith spends most of her time with her family. Her hobbies include brewing beer, boating on the lake, traveling on camper trips, cooking and gardening.
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.
