Bluegrass Veterinary Specialists + Animal Emergency

Our 12 week old Danny, was lifeless! His vet had did what she could. He was septic, glucose 33, and body temp 92. We carried a lifeless dog in there, and the boy we are bringing home is the same happy little Danny we grew to love. The entire staff were amazing, but Dr. Brad won me over. He asked me to give Danny 24 more hours to try to fight. I thought no way this 2.6 lb baby is pulling through this. Hours later Danny stood, then he ate, then he was 24 hours seizure free. We owe them so much for saving our precious boy. Dr. Brad you have a special place in our hearts, and we thank you for saving our boy!

We took my dog here last night as a recommendation from her primary vet due to him thinking she needed 24/7 monitoring due to a pancreatitis flare up. They were so sweet to her and I truly feel like they helped save her life. There were no surprise costs because the doctor and vet tech explained a rough estimate and everything they thought would need to be done which I really appreciated, and after I paid the deposit the total cost ended up being cheaper than the original estimate. When I walked in to pick her up I could hear the staff engaging with her as if she were their own dogs. She has never been away from me for an extended period of time and they kept her as comfortable as possible. I had a horrible experience with an emergency vet in Richmond Kentucky, and even though that PTSD never goes away this place helped me regain some trust in emergency vet care. Thank you to all the staff who helped Keke!

10/10 recommend this vet hospital!!!! These skilled workers saved our baby. Our dog,she’s a lab and she got fixed earlier that day at a different office, and later in the night jumped up and ripped a stitch, and started hemorrhaging blood from three different areas in her stomach, and bluegrass veterinary clinic was the only 24 hour vet near that would willingly take her with open arms. As soon as we arrived the doctors were standing arms open ready to take our girl into surgery, and kept her over night afterwards and took the best possible care of her. She’s well and healthy and thankfully healthy because of this vet!! Here she was right after staying over night!

we took our sweet girl, carrie, here when we found her suddenly paralyzed in her back two legs and miserable. the veterinarians and techs were so kind and helpful and it was so obvious that they love animals and what they do. they took such great care of our little angel. when her condition worsened, we had her euthanized here at home, and a few days later, we just got a card in the mail from everyone at bluegrass vet specialists. such a kind and sweet touch and a reminder that carrie was loved by everyone she met. thank you all for all that you do, and for doing your best to keep carrie comfortable in her last days.

My cat was hurt on a Sunday evening. They got us in fairly quickly. They took such good care of our fur baby. They were very kind and understanding with us, too. They are upfront about all costs before they do anything, which I appreciate. They are reasonably priced for an emergency, after hours call.
