Our Yorkie Sadie injured her back leg and was in distress !! Dr. Yeates and the entire staff are so kind and compassionate and took such good care of our Sadie! She needed X-rays and was given pain meds and an anti–inflammatory. They are reasonable and do not do a bunch of unnecessary tests like some places do. We were treated so respectfully, and every person who works there is wonderful !! I highly recommend that if you need urgent care, go to Acute Pet – your pet (and you) will be well taken care of!!

I took my pet to the AcutePet Urgent Care in Mount Pleasant on a Friday afternoon for an uncomfortable, but not life-threatening, emergency. Brittany at the front desk was kind and compassionate, making my case a priority. We ended up seeing Angelina, one of the vet technicians. She was super professional and knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything, including follow up care needs. She was considerate of my fur baby’s stress and anxiety, and his treatment was quick and thorough. The staff and care here is outstanding! Wish they could be our primary vet, but glad to know they are here for emergencies!! THANK YOU!

We had a very sick kitty and the staff at Acute Pet was outstanding. Dr. Powers was kind and considerate even though he had very tough news to share. The techs and front desk were very knowledgeable and helpful. I would highly recommend this clinic for your pets needs.

Had a wonderful experience at AcutePet Urgent Care. The office is beautiful and the staff so kind. My dog had an ear infection and needed to be seen, but our regular vet had no appointments for 2 more days. I called AcutePet and they saw her within 30 minutes. She did have the ear infection I thought she had and she was treated that afternoon. I would definitely use them again.

I cannot thank enough this place for saving my puppy. All the staff was really supportive and helpful. I really appreciated that the vet spoke Spanish to us. Sometimes it is hard to express yourself or understand instructions in a foreign language when in distress, this was so so helpful. I recommend this place 10/10.
