All Creatures Veterinary Emergency Clinic

I'm very thankful for the service this vet offers and their hours. I've had to take my cats here on multiple occasions unfortunately. My only complaint is their pricing can be all over the place. Reasonable in some areas, and not so much in others. Even for an after hours ER. Read Less

MY FIRST EXPERIENCE HERE WAS AMAZON I THINK GOD I FOUND THIS PLACE FOR MY GUINEA PIGS PLUS MY BABY GIRL POODLE . THE STAFF WAS ON PONT AND VERY KIND OF MY GUINEA'S BABIES I RECOMMEND FOR EVERYONE TO COME HERE FOR THERE BABY'S. THANK YOU. Read Less

Sunday afternoon we rushed our Husky in. She was disoriented and had trouble walking. Within minutes the team checked her vitals and kept us calm. The doctor diagnosed our Husky, explained our options and the importance of each option. Unfortunately our Husky had eaten marijuana she found in the yard after a party. Doctor Pfeiff assured us Mia would be back to normal in under 96 hours. Less than 24 hours later she's up and running. When the doctor loves animals so much she kisses your dog on the head you know you've come to the right place. Within 20 hours our normal vet was following up with us per Dr. Pfeiff's instructions. Thank you so much. Read Less

Brought my 3 1/2 month old pup in, as he was acting a bit peculiar. Better be safe than sorry on the weekend ... you never know. The staff was incredibly welcoming and accommodating.  They put us in their puppy room and came back and said it may be a while as they had some emergencies, which of course they are an emergency clinic. I have to admit I wasn't looking forward to an indefinite waiting, however I'm fortunate as my pup is  very patient.  Not long after we were brought in the room, the doctor came in, she was WONDERFUL!  Thank you so much for the time you spent with us and the amazing care you gave Maverick .

I had to put my dog of 13 years down. I had bottle fed this dog as a baby, so to say I was deeply emotionally attached to him is an understatement. The vet (Dr. Boyle) I think, and her team, showed compassion, empathy and a level of professionalism I have not experienced anywhere else in my life. The vet explained things in a way I could understand and gave me her honest, medical opinion on the situation. It looked grim but I trusted her. I was a mess, they didn't rush me and let me decide whenever I was ready. I wasn't sure if I was making the right decision, mostly because I didn't want to do it, but she (the vet) comforted me and said she thought I was doing the right thing for him even though it was hard. This was extremely reassuring. When it was done they told me they were sorry for my loss which I could tell they actually meant and they let me stay with him until I was ready to leave. This place is amazing and I will never take my beloved animals anywhere else but here from now on. Read Less

I am blown away at the compassion we received last night from Dr. Lisa Bowers and the staff. We'd brought in a stray kitten who'd been hit by a car. Due to her traumatic head injury, we had to make a difficult decision regarding the kitty. Dr. Bowers was so wonderful with us...taking time to explain everything, and then being patient and giving us time to think things over. We never felt rushed and we were treated with such kindness by all of the employees there. I can't thank them enough, and if I ever need an emergency vet clinic in the future, I will not hesitate to go back. Read Less

The staff here is wonderful and nice, but they stuck me and my dog into a hot isolation room for 2 hours while they were "getting a price estimate." That's fine, I expected some kind of wait, but I had to end up leaving all together because of an emergency occurring with another animal. Again, this is totally fine and of course I want them to save lives, so I told them I would simply come in later. Before coming in, I gave them a call and made sure service would be more swift this time around. To my surprise, and annoyance, I again was forced to wait about 2 hours to just get a price check. I understand it's a business and they get busy, but this was just ridiculous. I'll be going elsewhere from now on! Read Less

Love this place! So kind and compassionate! They will call you with updates on your animal, and will answer anytime you call to check even (even if it's to the point of possible annoyance...I'm THAT pet parent).  They even called a day after my kitty checked out just to follow up. Prices are not unreasonable for EMERGENCY care. Yes, it cost more than a routine vet visit-but chances are if you're going to an emergency clinic it's not routine anymore. Highly recommend and would go there again! Read Less

This place rocks as far as service, expertise and compassion for animals. Took our dogs here on separate occasions for their ailments and animals were well cared for, treated approximately and priced fairly. I have moved further down into the Central Valley; however, I still make the pilgrimage (roughly 2 hours) to drive here for my pets' emergency needs. Thank you All Creatures!! Read Less

I recently needed to get some late night care for my cat, Luke Skywalker.  He was feverish, slow-moving and you could tell was NOT doing well.  I remembered I had accompanied my sister (and her dog) to the All Creatures Veterinary Clinic on West Lane and was impressed with the quality of care and the concern and support she had received.So...Luke and I set off to visit them about 11PM on a Friday night.  Our reception was good and the amazing Dr. Damron (who was going into a surgery), stuck her head out to check on how much of an emergency we had (I was concerned Luke had eaten snail bait from a neighbor's yard), and she calmed me by reassuring me his symptoms were not poison-related.  The staff got Luke and I in a waiting room, set him up with an IV for fluid and we waited less than 30 minutes before Dr. Damron was able to examine him...they had done blood tests in the meantime.  They kept him for the night so he could stay on the IV for fluids and receive some other medications.  I picked him up before 7:30AM the next morning...their requirement.  I took Luke directly to his regular vet and they had already received the fax from All Creatures with all the information about our visit.I will tell you that I would not hesitate to use them again or to refer anyone to them.  They care, they take time with you and your animal (I saw them handle one other patient while I was there).  Dr. Damron herself called me 2 days later to check on how Luke was doing!!  I can't begin to recommend All Creatures Veterinary Clinic enough!!  They are excellent and provide outstanding service...with great care and compassion!

My lovely dog was extremely ill and I had to rush her to the nearest emergency vet and All Creatures Vet was nothing but kind and helpful. Unfortunately my dog was too sick to survive but the nurses and Dr. was very sweet and calmed me. After putting her down one of the nurses gave me a hug and comforted me which was nice. Not only that but a fews weeks later they sent me a sympathy card which I really appreciated. They went above and beyond to make sure I was ok and took care of my baby for a short time she was there.

Amazing place!! I brought in my 7 month old puppy in because he had gotten into some Sugar Free gum (he stole it out of my moms purse). Well little did we know how dangerous this is because it contains Xylitol. This can be deadly if not treated in time. So i called ahead and told them what happened and that i would be coming in within a matter of minutes. When i got there they were already waiting for me and took my baby right in, didnt waste any time. The Vet was very informational and was keeping me updated every chance she got. You can truely tell she cares for the animals she treats and wants the best for them. Which is the most important thing for me, ive seen alot of vets who almost seem to not even care but this place was very different. The assistants and girls in the front super nice and also showed so much love for our pup. Will definately come in again if i had to for any reason, but i pray i dont have to. Lol only down side is obviously the crazy outrageous bill, bt i feel like thats the same at any vet. So id rather pay that to a place that does a good job. Read Less

This "Dr" assumed my dog was a pit bull and refused to perform an emergency csection unless she spayed my dog for an overpopulation in their area. My dog comes from a line of service dogs and all her pups have been sold to loving homes outside the country so won't be adding to their shelters. Then gave me illegitimate "opinions" not facts on why my dog should be spayed. Was trying to charge me $2400+ for the service when the most I've known an emergency csection to go for in several states for no more then $1000, but i was willing to pay whatever to help my dog. I had to come take my dog home, while she continued to push with a pup still stuck in her birth canal until the next morning when I was able to get to our regular vet who performed the csection, no questions asked and all under $1000. Staff seemed nice at first but tried to work me over like a greedy mechanic shop. Shame on you people. Not all blacks have pit bulls, and I graduated Tuskegee University with honors and BS in Animals Science. Once I get my DVM I will be sure to open a clinic near by and be your biggest competitor!

Irene was such a kind and wonderful vet tech! I was so nervous with what happened to my dog but Irene was so supportive and gentle him throughout the whole visit. I was also stressed about the cost but she was great at explaining everything and walking through the steps of the care with us. Irene was very understanding and nonjudgmental too, which is very important for care of any patients! Great customer service. The location is close to our home too, which helps a lot! I thought the vet doctor was a bit abrupt but I understand it is a tough job and being up late at night. They prepared our prescriptions and after-visit summary with clear instructions and everything. Very grateful for their services and I'm sure my doggie appreciates it too! Will keep this place in mind for the future Read Less

My black lab fell in the pool on christmas day. No one was open but them. He went into shock and i didnt know what to do. I brought him here right away and without missing a beat, the vets got right to work. I thought i was gonna lose him but they took care of him and he's back to his good ol self. Cant thank them enough. Read Less

Our 2 dogs were playing in the back yard, a loud yelp...He was laying there, lethargic. The other dog concerned stayed by his side. He wouldnt move much but seemed conscious. I rushed him to vet. They did exam & xrays, as I was returning home to pick up family they called and said he was having seizures, we'd have to say goodbye - turns out his neck was broken. They provided exceptional medical support for his comfort - pain meds, anti seizure meds, oxygen...we arrived quickly to say goodbye, I talked to him and sang to him as they helped him pass, I was afraid it would be violent or something but - I've never seen an animal euthanized so peacefully, it was so quick. I am so happy they cared for him & our family as they did - extremely caring and professional. (Mochi the chiweenie) Read Less

This has got to be the most compassionate animal hospital I have ever been to. Crystal is amazing! She has the kindest soul! She made us feel so at ease. We came in with my sisnlaws dog, sadly he didn't make it. 13 years and we lost him today. Crystal held him so passionately even though she knew he was gone. She just took such great care of us! I couldn't have imagined better care and love from anyone else. I'm at a lost for words but I just have to say how wonderful crystal was to us! She's so patient and sweet and caring she was everything awesome wrapped into one person! Thank you crystal for your human kindness! Thank you for doing what you do! Thank u for your amazing heart of gold! You gave us so much time to grieve and you reassured us each time that we were fine and we could stay all night with our loved one if we wanted to! So thank you again! I don't know why the bad reviews, these people are amazing and they don't try to gauge you for money! I was willing to pay anything but they are great! I wished I lived closer I would bring my furbaby here. Read Less

Our puppy broke her leg on a Sunday evening. Dr Dameron and her staff were wonderful in helping us when no one else would. They are a blessing! We will go no where else for any future emergency needs. Thank you All Creatures Veterinary Emergency Clinic, you are awesome! Read Less

I took my dog here after noticing that she clearly wasn't feeling well. It was the only place I can find that was open and I was just hoping for the best. I get there and I was greeted and brought into a "doctor" room instead of the waiting room (so I felt really lucky and loved that they were so prompt). I wish I got the name of the vet assistant/tech that greeted me, she was really nice and patient with me. She did a few quick check-ups (heart beat, temperature) before calling in the doctor. Then Dr. Carol came in and further examined Miley and gave me a few different things that could have been wrong. She answered all of the questions I had. Her and the vet tech were very patient with me, I was such a MESS because of the financial costs and also seeing my dog like that. I was going to give 4 stars because the prices were high. But then I thought about it and started to understand, that this was an after-hours emergency vet clinic so of course they would be a little more pricey.So I give them 5 for being so patient with me, watching me cry, doing all that they could, going back and forth with new estimates, and explaining everything to me and answering all of my questions. Customer service was worth 5 stars even though I didn't really have any big services done. I went home with pain killers and antibiotics, I plan to visit more vet clinics in the morning. But they typed up a report for me to bring so that I wouldn't have to explain everything all over again.Thank you All Creatures Veterinary Emergency Clinic. I appreciate it. Read Less

Very compassionate and kind when our lil 7 lb Yorkie had his eye pop out of socket... got him on pain meds right away and quick surgery procedure. We are not sure yet about his vision being restored but Dr. Case definitely saved his eye. Read Less

HORRIBLE. The only way my dog could get the treatment was if it stayed over night. The treatment would be around $280 but the over night stay would be $900. Very disappointing with the lack of help they give. The diagnosed my dog with something but didn't even bother helping us get an affordable treatment. Read Less

I took our cat socks there last night they got us in right away. They all fell in love with socks he was such a good boy for not feeling good and being at the vets they made him feel very comfortable. He just laid there and let them do what was needed.  It really shows how much they love animals. I highly recommend them The whole staff was above and beyond kind. Thank you from socks and our family. Read Less

What an extraordinary evening find - All Creatures ER Clinic. Thank you for helping out our Wheezy Bird last night with her stuck egg. We are grateful. After frantically calling numerous after-hours Vet Clinics from San Jose to UC Davis, we were referred to All Creatures by UC Davis. We live in Tracy and due to the distance, they felt we needed to be seen ASAP. They took us in as soon as we got there and were quickly greeted by the staff. They shared they were working with dog at the moment but would be right with us and put us into a warmer room than the lobby. Finally, Dr. Case came out to examine Wheezy and said she was going to take her to the back to see about massaging the egg out. Anything to help Wheezy! When she came back, Wheezy didn't have the egg anymore (they had to break it to free it from her) and didn't appear distressed. She shared that Wheezy's lack of calcium may have contributed to laying a larger-then-normal size and shape egg. We'll increase her calcium and will locate a regular Dr for her. All in all, we are very grateful with our experience with All Creatures. I read some reviews that noted the staff wasn't friendly but ask you to think of this - they're there to save your fur/feather family. If you want a cup of tea and a warm snuggle upon your arrival, go somewhere else - All Creatures is about your baby, not you.  Thank you, All Creatures! Read Less

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!!!  My boy had a swollen face, fever, and wouldn't eat/drink. I took him in and they were so friendly, nice, caring, and informative. My boy Simon loves women, he was quite happy to be there with them. The Dr was very very nice. She was not in a rush, wanted to answer any questions we had. She also spoke to us when we picked him up. They took great care of my Simon. Read Less

My sweet dog lived with a genetic heart defect and when he went into cardiac arrest one Saturday evening, I rushed him to All Creatures. Everyone was so empathic and comforting. This vet clinic loves its clients and serves with professionalism and kindness. Read Less

Thank you for the paw prints of friday. That was one the most heartbreaking days. He wasnt just a pet he was family. I was thinking the day after we lost him how I wish I would of thought to get paw prints. 2 days later I received the card from your staff with his paw prints inclosed. Thank You all so much.

During the middle of the night our one year old Maltese was breathing heavy and started to worry us. Our daytime vet had the number for here so we called and the receptionist was extremely kind and gave us information. We went in and they checked him out. Thankfully everything sounded healthy and normal. A lot of vets will push extra tests just to take your money. This one was honest and told us there was no need for X-rays or anything. We are very thankful for the staff here! Read Less

They have the absolute top vets in Stockton/Lodi area.  They care beyond  words for animals. I prefer them over my regular vet whom I only trust for basic things like shots. Dr. Turner, Dr. Dameron, Dr Ayers are amount a few of the stellar staff here.  They work long shifts to give our babies the best care.  Thank you all for your love and dedication to animals. Read Less

Amazing! All Creatures was probably the best vetinary experience we have ever had. The doctors on staff really knew what they were talking about and gave us, what I felt was, excellent medical advice. The doctors and assisting staff there were supportive and truly seemed to care about the well being of our pets. I didn't feel judged or get the vibe that it was all about the money either. I would absolutely recommend All Creatures Vet Emergency to anyone with a pet emergency or even just pet questions. Also, a special thank you to Dr. Turner and Dr. Damon, you two give vetinary doctors a very good name. Thanks again to all of the staff for everything. Read Less

Amazing pet service care.My baby Camie was hit by a car and they did so much for her to make sure she was comfortable as well as me. Dr.Damron is a great vet and would recommend her to anyone. Their staff was understanding and helpful at my time of need. Read Less

We can't say enough complimentary things about our experience here! We had great service here recently when our cat became ill in the middle of the night. The staff was friendly and put us at ease. They ran tests on our cat and quickly contacted our vets office with the results. We would return without a doubt and highly recommend this clinic to anyone. Thank you again for taking such good care of our cat! Read Less

Fast, Good service. New emergency clinic in Stockton. Way better than the other emergency clinics I have taken my pets to. The veterinarians are nice and patient. They really care about the animals and treat them so well. I will continue to take my pets here. Read Less

I'm not too happy with them. I went there as an emergency and was charged an amount , but they call me late at night a few days later telling me they meant to charge me a higher amount . Is that my problem? Is it my problem that they are disorganized? Read Less
