As a referral animal hospital, we work closely with your family veterinarian to provide your pet with a complete healthcare team.
Client Reviews & Testimonials
Animal Emergency & Referral Associates have been dedicated to providing quality veterinary care to the West Caldwell, NJ community since 1977. We strive to treat your pets with the same care and compassion as if they were our own.
This is a fantastic practice. The staff are amazing, from doctors, nurses, and techs to office workers. Dr. Straus is an incredible clinician (I wish I had a human internist as good!) and our dog adores him and his colleagues. We are so grateful for the prompt care and careful follow up provided to Sam the dog as we try to get his GI disease under control.

[Their] new place is huge and spotless and professional. Kept me and my pet anxiety-free. All of the staff were professional and courteous.My 1 yr old Chocolate Lynx Balinese had a follow-up for polyp removal from her left ear last summer. Dr. Brophy and his staff were excellent! Everyone.. please obtain Pet Insurance the day you bring home a new pet! Trupanion insurance paid every penny no questions asked!

My pet was in need of emergency services. We called this center and our questions were answered efficiently. The registration process was seamless. By the time we arrived at the facility, they were already waiting for us. They immediately assessed our pet and had a treatment plan including differential diagnosis and recommended tests.We were completely satisfied and Dave is back to being his happy, boisterous self! Thank you so much!!
