Clinic
EmanciPET World Headquarters, located in East Austin, fills appointments for pet owners who live in the area and also operates a shuttle vehicle to serve clients who live in surrounding communities. We will travel to communities within 30 minutes driving distance of our clinic, pick up pets at predetermined locations and bring them to the clinic for surgery on the same day. All pets who receive spay or neuter surgery at the clinic go home on the day of surgery - they are picked up by their owners at the clinic or returned to surrounding communities via the shuttle van in the late afternoon.
EmanciPET has a very high standard of care for the animals entrusted to us. Experienced veterinarians perform all spay and neuter surgeries, and each doctor is assisted by a team of three trained veterinary technicians. Because of the nature of our mission, EmanciPET’s stationary clinic does not operate like a regular vet clinic. Our veterinarians must perform many surgeries every day, and under most circumstances they do not meet the clients we serve. Our veterinary technicians are charged with building positive relationships with clients - obtaining background information, answering questions and educating clients about preventive health care. Because their role is especially important at EmanciPET, all our technicians undergo thorough, structured training and testing. The technicians who communicate with our clients truly understand the surgical process and the preventive health services we offer.
EmanciPET has spayed or neutered over 65,000 pets to date with very few complications. We do understand, however the necessity of a prescribed emergency protocol. Dr. Kimberly Bodner carries a pager by which clients can reach her with post op questions or concerns 24 hours a day. If there is a true emergency and our stationary facility is not open or capable of dealing with the problem, EmanciPet maintains a relationship with a local emergency clinic and private hospital. This private clinic will examine and treat EmanciPET patients with postoperative complications at 50% or more off their regular fees.
