In 1995 the original Animal Emergency Critical Care opened in Leesburg, Virginia, and since then has grown to be an elite AAHA-accredited referral hospital and full-service emergency room and ICU for pets with specialty veterinarians, and a dedicated, passionate team of nurses, assistants, and client service representatives.
For 28 years seeing thousands of patients annually, their team is not only able to respond quickly in an emergency, their training and experience in treating the most critically ill patients is why VCA Animal Emergency Critical Care is the emergency team you can trust.
