Inland Valley Veterinary Specialists & Emergency Center

We had an emergency at 6am and Inland Valley Veterinary ER was closest to our home. The friendly receptionist put us at ease with her thorough questions before admitting our dog. Dr Carrol was so kind and answered every one of our questions.She recommended needed testing and bloodwork for our Lucy and we had to leave her for a couple of hours. At pick up, Dr Erik came in and set us up with treatment going forward and explained everything to our satisfaction. Great staff that i highly recommend!

can’t thank this veterinary team enough for saving my dog’s life. I rushed in early Monday morning around 5:30 a.m. when my dog had a severe allergic reaction, and they immediately took action. The staff was incredibly kind, attentive, and efficient. They quickly administered the necessary injections and gave me clear recommendations to help reduce the swelling and support his recovery. Thanks to their care, my dog Charlie is doing so much better, and I am beyond grateful. It’s such a relief to know there’s a place you can trust in an emergency. Highly recommend to anyone looking for compassionate and prompt veterinary care.

Davina was wonderful. When I called ahead because I had 3 really sick dogs, she was super helpful and I felt she was sincerely caring. She also was ready for us as we walked in the door. Polite, professional , and friendly. It’s hard to have an emergency for a loved one. Having 3 is extra challenging. So I appreciated working with such a kind person. She also offered us cleaning supplies when my dogs were sick in the car. This is the best emergency hospital you can take a loved one. Veterinarians and staff have excellent knowledge, expertise, and care. I feel confident they will help my dogs feel better. They really do care.

We had an emergency with our dog tonight and the team at Inland Valley Veterinary Specialists & Emergency Center was amazing. Dr. Houfek took great care of our dog and acted quickly to help us. We were seen very fast, and the entire staff was kind, professional, and very communicative throughout the whole visit. They explained everything clearly and made a stressful situation much easier for us. We are very grateful for the excellent care they provided.

Took my beloved 17 year old dog Jersey here, as a walk in visit, to have him put down. The staff was great. The check in process was quick (as we’d never been here before). We did not have to wait in the waiting room, we were taken right back. The Tech was VERY kind, patient, compassionate, and professional. We could not have had a better experience and I’m so thankful for Jersey’s peaceful passing in my arms. Thank you for our positive experience with your staff and services rendered, during an extremely difficult and heartbreaking time.

Over the course of a month, four different outside veterinarians checked my cat Benny for a watery left eye, decreased appetite, and decreased activity. None could find anything other than a plugged tear duct. Benny finally got so dehydrated that I brought him to the emergency room at Inland Valley Veterinary Specialists. The doctor there that night, Dr. Jeffrey Patlogar, examined him and immediately suspected a tumor behind the left eye. He recommended an ophthalmologist, who ordered a CT scan, which indeed showed the tumor. Dr. Patlogar knew it was most likely a lymphoma, and started prednisone and L-asparaginase while waiting for an oncologist to see Benny. The oncologist concurred completely with Dr. Patlogar's assessment and treatment. Because of his timely decisions, Benny survived long enough to get radiation therapy. He has been back to his old self since. I am amazed at, and very grateful for, Dr. Patlogar's clinical expertise. He basically saved Benny. Furthermore, everyone at IVVS from the receptionists to the nurses consistently showed compassion and attention to my cat and me. If and when Benny gets sick again, we will be coming back to this ER.

In December my cat broke her leg and I took her here for emergency services. For the past 10-weeks I have come her once a week to have her x-rays, casts, and checked for her progress. This is the best animal care service I have ever had. The front desk staff, the animal support technicians and Vet doctors are all so kind, careful and caring of the pets brought in. My cat was naturally nervous and in pain but she was always treated so gently and with professional care. She got adorable cat casts every week after her leg was checked. This allowed her to heal well of the time. I was also given great customer service and courtesy by everyone there. Special thanks to Dr. Monty, who is empathetic, knowledgeable, funny and an expert in veterinary practice. He help guide me through my cats long healing progress. I would absolutely recommend here. A whole lot of heart to help heel here. Thank you IVVS.
