AAHA Accredited

Emerald City Emergency Clinic (ECEC) is an AAHA accredited practice. The American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) is an organization that sets “The Standard of Veterinary Excellence,” established by a group of veterinary professionals dedicated to quality and consistent pet care. Being accredited demonstrates that ECEC upholds the gold standard of veterinary care – meaning this is what your patient will receive while in our hospital.

To become accredited, a practice must undergo an evaluation of over 900 general and mandatory standards, ranging from pet care, pain management, cleanliness, and record keeping. Only about 15% of veterinary practices in the U.S. hold this distinction. We are very proud to belong to this organization and to have obtained this accreditation status.

We Believe Pets Are Family

Your pet will be in great hands with our highly-experienced emergency veterinarians and our caring team of veterinary nurses.

Open 24/7, 365 days a year

The recent Los Angeles wildfires have left many animals in urgent need of help. In the coming days, more and more animals suffering from burns and other injuries will require critical medical care.  

Lakefield is supporting @pasadenahumane, which has taken in over 400 animals since the fires began and is at capacity with drop-offs and goods donations. They are in greater need of monetary support to assist with treatment and ongoing care.  

We are doing our part by matching up to $5,000 for the Pasadena Humane to help support lifesaving care for these animals, you can donate directly through this social media post.   Together, we can make a difference.
