  • Isis Wattigney

    -Isis Wattingley from Stone Mountain, GA
    Pet Name: Isis

    Pet Image Dear Dr. Davis and staff,

    Want to let you know that Isis is doing great. She's happy dogs again, very active and loving. Her skin is almost completely healed and she's seems to be feeling fine. Attached is a picture of her yesterday playing in the back yard with her stuffed bunny.

    Thank you for your tender loving and superb care. I have no regrets deciding to let you try to save her. You did!

    Much love from us both,

    Wendy and Isis


  • Mimi Dugan

    -Shannon Dugan from Tucker, GA
    Pet Name: Mimi

    Dr. Hughes and Staff,

    I wanted to thank you so much for taking such good care of my pug "Mimi" a few weeks ago. Her eye has healed wonderfully and Dr. Winston said that it is the best possible scenario for an eye that has popped out. The nerve is still intact and she has some vision in that eye but we don't know how much. Her pupil does react but it is much slower and usually is larger than her good eye. She looks great and is back to her old self, just as if it never happened.

    I cannot thank you enough for your wonderful, compassionate care. Also, I truly appreciate the amount of time you took to explain everything to me.

    We are so blessed and thankful that you were all on duty that night.

    Thank you again and god bless you.

    Sincerely,
    Shannon and Mimi

  • Thank you

    -S. Simpson from Atlanta, GA
    Pet Name: Tucker

    Recently, we were faced with the difficult decision of putting our boxer, Tucker, down at your clinic. While this was a very hard decision, your staff made the situation much easier. I wanted to take a moment and express my gratitude to the entire staff. From the receptionist to the techs to the two ER doctors we came into contact with, everyone was very understanding and responsive.

    I felt much better knowing that the DGAEC staff was going to take the best care of Tucker when we made the decision to put him down. I have no doubt that the entire staff treated Tucker with compassion and respect.

    Tucker was part of our family and always will be and I wanted to thank the staff for the professionalism, courtesy, and compassion that we experienced.

    While I hope the majority of your patients do not have to make the decision we did, I will highly recommend your clinic to anyone I know with a pet.

    Again, thank you for your caring and professionalism.


  • Thank you!

    -The Cason Family from Stone Mountain, GA
    Pet Name: Lady Guinnevere

    Dear Doctors and Staff,
    Thank you for your compassion towards our family. You treated Lady Guinnevere with tenderness, treated my husband with kindness, and you were so thoughtful to make my daughter a beautiful keepsake of her beloved kitten. Your kindness helped our family through this very sad experience and it is much appreciated.


  • Many thanks...

    -Kelly Shobe from Snellville, GA
    Pet Name: Major

    Thank you very much for saving my life and even though you didn't get to see me at my best, I am up and running (trying to anyway) already! My mom is so happy that I am ok that she lets me lick her (but not on the the mouth)! I appreciate all the T.L.C. and Dr. Yeomans at Brookwood applauds your fine work too! XOXO Major Shobe


  • Amazing Staff

    -Katie Day from Doraville, GA
    Pet Name: Miles

    A few months ago our cat, Miles, was hit by a car. We ended up at the clinic and had to face the difficult decision of putting him to sleep. The veterinary staff and everyone working that night were so so compassionate and gave us all the time we needed. I am truly gratefully for their assistance and the great care they gave to a very feisty cat. It really meant a lot to us have him treated so well in the end. Thanks!

Emergency Care

If you feel you have an emergency with your pet, and your regular veterinarian is closed, please call the emergency clinic as soon as possible at 770-491-0661.

The staff at VCA Dekalb-Gwinnett Animal Emergency Hospital will be able to give you directions and briefly discuss your animal's situation. Unfortunately, we are unable to determine if it is an emergency over the phone and leave that decision up to you. If you feel it is an emergency, then it is an emergency. Please do not be angry with the staff at the emergency clinic when they cannot give you advice over the phone. It is impossible to determine an animal's condition without seeing the animal first and all staff members are instructed not to give medical advice over the phone.
