🎄 We’re here when you need us, even during the holidays.

MedVet hospitals are open 24/7 for emergency care, every day of the year. Because pets don’t take holidays, and neither do we. 💙

📍 Reminder: A few MedVet locations are not open 24/7 or may have limited holiday hours. Visit our website to find your nearest MedVet and view current hours: https://hubs.la/Q03YYBP30

Jasper the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel gave us a little holiday surprise when he came to MedVet Diley Hill after swallowing something he definitely shouldn’t have: feminine hygiene products 😳

Our ER team safely induced vomiting to help his body bring the items back up, and thankfully, the procedure was successful. Jasper was feeling much better afterward and showed up in the most Grinchy Christmas pajamas, so of course we had to snap a photo by the tree. 🎄

Foreign body ingestions are more common than you might think, especially in curious dogs and cats. Spot the signs early, know when to act, and keep your pets safe: https://hubs.la/Q03YTvD00

This time of year is a meaningful reminder of why we do what we do. Behind every case, every late night, and every recovery is a connection built on trust, compassion, and care.

Hearing directly from pet parents about their experiences is something our teams never take for granted. Drs. Terah Webb, Taylor Johannigman, and Brandon Verkinderen took a look at a few of many kind reviews from the pet parents of recent patients. Your words inspire us, uplift us, and reinforce the impact of the work happening inside our hospitals every day. 🌟

This holiday season, we’re sharing a little joy from the heart of our hospitals. Our incredible Drs. Twila Booke and Zachary Niman took a moment to read some of the kind words sent by the pet parents of a few recent patients.

To everyone who has trusted us with their beloved pets: thank you. Your support, stories, and smiles mean the world to us. 💫

From all of us at MedVet, we wish you a safe, happy, and heartwarming holiday season. ❤️

Pets are more than companions. They are family, sources of comfort, routine, and connection. When a pet is sick or facing a medical decision, the impact can be felt across an entire household. 💙🐾

Our MedVet Social Work team shares how they view pets within family systems, the many roles animals play in our lives, and the emotional, social, and health benefits they provide. They also discuss thoughtful considerations families may face when navigating care options during times of illness, helping pet parents feel supported, informed, and understood.

When Uma, a 2-year-old cat, started showing signs of spinal pain and head twitching, her family brought her to MedVet Cincinnati's Neurology team for help.

An MRI performed by Dr. Meghan Slanina revealed that Uma had a malformation in the back of her skull that was putting pressure on her brain due to fluid buildup. To relieve this pressure, Drs. Maya Krasnow and Kelli Mossine performed delicate surgery to remove part of the abnormal bone and drain the excess fluid.

Tests later showed that Uma had angiomatosis, a rare developmental condition where blood vessels grow abnormally and can cause swelling or pressure in nearby tissues.

Thanks to her skilled care team, Uma recovered beautifully, and her spinal pain and head twitching have improved. We’re so proud of this brave girl and the Neurology team who helped her heal ❤️‍🩹
