When seconds matter, experience matters

Emergencies happen – the pace and strain required to attend to these emergencies may not be something your regular practice is equipped or even interested in handling in the middle of their normal day. Luckily, Dr. Cooper and her team have a niche for emergency and urgent care and over 30 years combined experience in specialty emergency and critical care practice. Not only do they have a unique and skilled background in dealing with life-threatening emergencies, but they share a passion to provide and care for pets that require urgent and emergency services.

We are equipped to handle same-day emergencies so that your pet can receive the time and care they deserve, in a productive and efficient manner. Together at Banderas Pet hospital, we have found a way to provide the same real-time care for pets experiencing emergencies when your family veterinarian may not be able to have them seen on a same-day basis.

Our ER Team

He worked for over 15 years in emergency and specialty care also in LA and came to Banderas pet Hospital to help Dr. Cooper expand these services.

Tori – Worked at the same emergency and critical care facility as Dr. Cooper and Manny, then moved to full time overnight care for critical patients before transitioning back into primary care to help Dr. Cooper at Banderas Pet hospital.
