Welcome to CARE

The advanced medical center for pets.

In a way, pets are like people. Sometimes they require special, expert care – and that can happen suddenly. That’s why CARE is here. We’ve assembled the board–certified specialties your pet needs and deserves, in a setting that’s medically advanced and always compassionate. We also have 24-hour emergency services, all under one roof, for your peace of mind.

We drive ourselves to exceed your expectations while treating every pet as if he or she was our own. For referrals, we work closely with your veterinarian and, as a team, diagnose the condition and plan a course of treatment with careful consideration for quality of life.

Because our focus is on pets’ more advanced medical needs, we do not offer these services: spay and neuter services, teeth cleaning, vaccinations and immunizations and boarding. These are areas of expertise for primary veterinarians.

CARE is the pet equivalent of a human medical center.

Comment on Facebook Grady was diagnosed ...

Grady, wishing you well and a good recovery. My Jack Russell, PeaPod had this also. She put up a good fight for a year, she was 15 yrs old. Praying for you.

Susan and I (Grady's parents) tried to post a review of CARE but somehow our limited tech skills kept us from posting it correctly. So here is our review! 5 Stars to CARE's (Charlotte Animal Referral and Emergency) neurology department for all that they have done for our dog Grady. Grady was diagnosed with meningoencephalitis (inflammation of the brain and spinal cord) in April and has been going to CARE for chemical infusions every three to four weeks. We live in Wrightsville Beach, NC and CARE has not only provided us with expert medical care but has also gone the extra mile to adjust their schedule to meet Grady's needs. EVERYONE has been really friendly and it didn't take us long to realize that we had found the right facility to help diagnose and treat Grady's disease. He is now in remission and even though we realize the disease could possibly return one day we find comfort in knowing that Grady once again has a happy and healthy life. Kudos to Drs. Wininger, Fauber and Kowal and all who assisted in Grady's recovery! He can actually enjoy boat rides again!😊

I love Grady!! He’s such a sweet boy and I’m so happy he’s in remission; even though we won’t see him anymore!

Congratulations Grady and all your docs at CARE 🎉🐾🦴

Go Grady!

Dr. Rouben and Dr. Bishop could compete daily for Men’s Best Dressed Fashion Icon (down to the socks). Wolfie decided to throw his “hat in the ring” sporting a button down plaid shirt with a pull over sweater and matching bow tie. Now we just need to find them a runway!

Ha! I love it! All I know is that Dr. Bishop was such a great doctor to my Bentley. I wouldn't have cared if he wore a potato sack! CARE is the best. Hands down! Dr. Flood was amazing too. She really gave me a lot of support on Bentley's last day and I won't ever forget how I was treated. Thank you all.

Ditto. Dr Bishop took care of Maddie and we will always we grateful

Our Wolfie wins of course 😋 Angel Marcalle

This is Hannah one of our vet tech interns and Dandy, an 8 week old Husky pup. Dandy was bitten in the head by a much larger dog and had to undergo an emergency craniectomy to treat his brain swelling and to remove skull fragments. Dandy recovered quickly following surgery and is on his way to making a full recovery! Dandy’s neuro team (Dr. Fauber, Dr. Curtis, Angelica and Hannah) wish him the very best! #carecharlotte #vetneurosurgery #huskiesofinstagram

Over the past several months we have been talking to our staff about the shocking videos of racism and brutality and the protests that followed. At CARE, diversity is one of our seven core values. However, we realized that upholding that core value can be challenging...
