Central Pennsylvania Veterinary Emergency Treatment Services

You never want to have to go to an emergency vet and I was so scared to take my baby to strangers but I didn't have a choice my local vet recommended them and they accepted us despite being busy. From the moment we got there I knew it was the right choice we were sitting in the waiting room maybe 5 minutes and they were apologizing about the delay, probably because people think an emergency room you just walk right in and they take you but that's not how it works. Everything was very thoroughly explained and everyday was so extremely kind and patient. Every single person you could tell liked their job and liked helping animals and genuinely cared about your pet and you as the pet parent. Our dog had to undergo surgery and was there for about 48 hours and she is doing amazing so far. I'm so

The staff and doctor were nice and friendly, I just don’t like their system and how they take your pet away from you and keep coming back to you to talk to you and make decisions while your pet is kept away and you don’t see him! My dog Pepper was diagnosed with cancer and it wasn’t anything they could do for him and we wanted to spend the last day with him at home so after we got him back and while we were driving home he passed in my arm and I only had 5 minutes with him after I find out he is in end of his life😞 if they had let us stay with him when we went in the hospital I would of be with him to comfort him in his last hours of his life! This is not good for the pet and owner to be separated in a stressful time of emergency when you need your loved ones around you the most.

I had a really great experience at CPVets! My cat was having stomach issues/lethargy and I took her to CPVets. They were upfront about the fees over the phone. Then, soon after arriving, I spoke to the vet about the best plan of action for my cat and the vet checked with me about every procedure before completing it. All three vets I saw there were very transparent about the price and risks of certain treatment paths and I felt like they gave excellent and rational advice. They were kind throughout my visit and were very patient with my rambunctious cat. My cat has now recovered from her stomach problem and is back to her rambunctious behavior. I would highly recommend CPVets!!

Very nice staff. The vet is wonderful and we just happened to get there at a good time because we didn't wait but 2 hours from start to finish. It was way cheaper than what we were expecting too. Someone told me they were cheaper than Metzger and did great care. I definitely can agree with the great care. I've never taken a cat to metzgers so I can't verify that. But I HIGHLY recommend them!

This is my favorite ER vet in State College. I’ve had to take 4-5 of my cats there over the years. Overnight stays can get pricey, but that’s honestly the case anywhere - even your local vet. They’re super responsive and attentive. Their new facility is pretty great too. I like that you can now wait inside instead of having to stay in your car. I’ve always had positive experiences with all of that staff.
