Small Business Spotlight: Sadie Veterinary Urgent Care — Compassionate and Convenient Pet Care in East Portland
This past weekend, we found ourselves in a situation many pet owners dread: our dog, Kimber, ripped her paw pads wide open. With our regular vet unavailable, we turned to Sadie Urgent Care, a local pet urgent care clinic specializing in after-hours medical needs. While no one ever hopes to need emergency services, our experience at Sadie was nothing short of exceptional.
Why We Chose Sadie Veterinary Urgent Care
Sadie Veterinary Urgent Care was the closest option available, and their extended hours were a lifesaver. Open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. most days of the week, they provide access to quality care when other clinics are closed. But beyond convenience, Sadie stands out for its thoughtful, compassionate approach to pet care.
A Calming Environment for Pets and Owners Alike
From the moment we walked in, it was clear that Sadie is different. The clinic is designed with intention, creating a calming environment that helped ease our anxiety, and Kimber’s. The waiting area is quiet, and the overall atmosphere is serene—perfect for keeping stressed pets and their worried owners calm.
Quick and Compassionate Care
Although the clinic operates by appointment only, we were fortunate to get a slot on Sunday after calling on Saturday when they were fully booked. Check-in was a breeze; we were greeted warmly and only had to wait a few minutes before Kimber was seen. The staff, primarily women, were not just friendly and knowledgeable but also incredibly compassionate and respectful to both Kimber and us.
Quality Care and Clear Communication
Kimber’s injury was assessed, and the staff provided clear, concise communication about her treatment plan, which included pain management and monitoring to deter excessive licking of the wounds. We were given specific instructions on what to do if any issues arose, and we felt comfortable and reassured as we left with a solid plan in place.
Encouraging the Portland Community to Choose Sadie in Times of Need
We’re so grateful to have found a clinic like Sadie Veterinary Urgent Care, and we want to encourage other Portland pet owners to consider them in their time of need. Whether it’s an unexpected injury or an illness that can’t wait, Sadie’s team is there to help with services ranging from in-house x-rays and lab testing to pain management and minor surgical procedures.
Their compassionate care and commitment to pet health truly make them a standout option for urgent veterinary services in Portland.
If you’re in a pinch and need quick, reliable care for your pet, we highly recommend Sadie Urgent Care. You can find them at 8037 SE Stark St. or check their website for more information about their services and availability.
And to the team at Sadie, thank you for taking such great care of Kimber! We hope to never need urgent care again, but if we do, we know where we’re going!
