Our emergency vet hospital offers urgent/emergency veterinary care for your pets on the same day when your pet’s condition is not life-threatening, and immediate medical attention is necessary. We are open 5 days a week and aim to accommodate your schedule and minimize your pet’s stress.
We recommend scheduling a same-day appointment for your convenience. However, walk-ins are also welcome and will be attended to at the earliest available time-slot. In the event of a full schedule, please be prepared for potentially longer wait times.

Dr. Purificacion was born the Philippines, where her dream of becoming a veterinarian was kindled by raising a Shih Tzu and Lhasa Apso duo at home. Her love for animals led her to completion of her veterinary medicine degree at the De La Salle Araneta University Philippines, and clinical clerkship at the Louisiana State University.
Dr. Ertola grew up in San Francisco, where she spent her childhood engaging in activities centered around animals. She volunteered to help socialize shelter cats, worked at a summer camp with the SCPA Hearing Dogs program, and took horseback riding lessons with her cowboy grandpa. Now residing in Bonita with her husband (whom she met at UC San Diego), her two young daughters, and their tri-pawed fur baby Lab mix, Riley, Dr. Ertola cherishes her role as a veterinarian.
