South Carolina Veterinary Specialists & Emergency Care

They were so amazing and me and my friend thought taking her dog through the doors would be her last time anywhere. Well it was. We said goodbye to her. They said take all the time we needed. The staff understands that people come in there a wreck and they don’t seem to be bothered by it. They are very understanding group of people and they are the best I have ever met. They were very caring and they understood that talking and being compassionate and caring about other people’s animals means alot to other people. I highly recommend this vet…

We unfortunately had to bring one of our dogs in after a dog fight last night and although they were short staffed I think they did a great job prioritizing and triaging pets! Dr. Kelly was fantastic, listened to what had happened, assessed our girl and talked through all of our options being super considerate of our budget as well as realistic about the most significant wound she had. I also work in the field as a tech and previous management- I can certainly say the team present last night was very professional, proficient and knowledgeable. CSRs were personable and kept the front end clean. Amongst the surge of pets coming in the techs also kept the lobby well informed. This team truly cares and I am grateful they were able to help us out last night while we were traveling! Thank yall!

If you are looking for a place to go, don’t look any further, come here. We were having a medical emergency with our baby Schnauzer and they met us at the door. Our check in was so easy and their prices are very reasonable. Our baby is 15 years old and is fully blind. They stayed with her the entire time. When one would leave another would stay with her so she wouldn’t be to overwhelmed with fear. They were very thorough in checking her out and keeping her overnight. We can’t thank Dr Kelly and all the medical staff. Front desk staff too!

Tiana Jane, Big Mama, our 2 yrs old black lab puppy, decided she wanted to climb up on the Guest Bedroom dresser and play with a bottle of aspirin. Chewed up the bottle and chomped down only God knows how many highly toxic aspirin. Being the sharing puppy that she is, she decided to take the bottle and share with our Lil' Man, Caesar Augustus, our 5 yrs old brindle Boston terrier. Barely gone for three and a half hours for friends giving Thanksgiving dinner, we came home to find 11 piles of vomit with hundreds of little pieces of aspirin in it and the chewed up bottle throughout the house. Our primary veterinarian St Andrews veterinarian care, had always recommended that if there were ever to be any emergencies South Carolina veterinarian emergency care was the place we were to go. The puppy babies are our children, literally, and the thought of aspirin toxicity killing them was a nightmare. We immediately called, they had us follow up with poison control authority to establish a case for coordinated medical Care and treatment. Within less than 45 minutes Poison control established a case and both babies were admitted into the emergency care of South Carolina veterinarian specialists. Both puppy babies were hospitalized. The facility staff carefully coordinated Care and treatment with poison control, vitals and blood work were monitored extensively. They were kind enough to allow us to bring back their puppy blankets, their protein food and treats, even a t-shirt for each one of them that had our scent so they would know they were not alone. The compassion, the due diligence and ensuring their safe well-being was priceless. 2 Days later, both of the babies are home and recovering. Snuggled up on the couch on their pillows and under their blanket like the little humans that they are, two weeks of medication to monitor liver functions and protect their internal systems, we give Praise to God and Thanksgiving for the South Carolina veterinarian emergency care and the staff that brought our babies home to us! Blessings and gratitude, The Von Roue Family

5 stars isn’t enough. The entire time my pet was at SCVSEC, every single staff member treated him as if he were their own pet. From daily updates to hearing how much the staff adored Sonny made such a stressful situation so much less stressful. Every concern or question I had was addressed with ample information and empathy. The reception staff were happy to give me updates multiple times a day and were so friendly. Extra thank you to both techs named Danielle, that loved and cared for Sonny during his visit. Dr. Reiser, I can’t thank you enough for the time you put into Sonny’s care and consistently updating me. You can tell you absolutely love your job and hearing from you every single day was the best part of my day. You are so kind and knowledgeable and i’m so glad you were apart of Sonny’s care team. THANK YOU SCVSEC!
