Every Pet Deserves Emergency Medicine This Advanced

Why Choose I-20 Animal Medical Center

Open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, I-20 Animal Medical Center is a full service animal hospital with doctors and nurses are on premises at all times. We have been the premier animal emergency hospital for Mansfield and south Arlington for over two decades. We have the latest in ultrasound, endoscope, laser surgery, human equivalent dental suites, boarding facilities, ICU equipment and digital x-rays so that surgeries like spay/neuters, laser declaws, dental extractions and jaw fracture repairs go as smoothly as possible.

Emergencies:

Our team of doctors is headed up by Dr. Cindi Welch, a three year residency trained doctor in Emergency and Critical Care. A residency is the 3 year additional training a veterinarian does to become a specialist in the field. No other area emergency veterinarian hospital has anyone with this type of advanced training. This means that your pet will get the absolute finest emergency care available anywhere. If your pet needs emergency care, come in now. Appointments are available but not necessary. Call and we will have a team ready for your arrival.

We are also proud to be the only emergency animal hospital in all of north Texas with a veterinarian, Dr. Bonnie Bloom, who is residency trained in dentistry. Dr. Ken Karger, a human dental surgeon, also works full time at I-20 to assist Dr. Bloom with oral trauma of the teeth, face and mouth. No other animal emergency hospital in Mansfield, Arlington, Grand Prairie or Fort Worth has this sort of expertise on premises to help with your emergency situation.
