Vaccinations in Bradenton, FL

We are highly skilled at providing care for pets when they are sick, but we also recognize the importance of keeping pets healthy and preventing illness. We have a hybrid practice that allows us to emphasize a broad spectrum of care for both well and sick pets.


Companion Veterinary and Urgent Care Center is the only veterinary hospital in Bradenton/Sarasota that provides urgent and wellness care, which allows us to provide a “whole pet” approach to your furry family member’s health.

Emergencies and illnesses can happen at any time, and it can be very frightening when your pet is ill or injured. There are times when urgent care makes all the difference, and it is important to know who you can quickly turn to in the event of an emergency.

Our modern, clean facility allows us to provide the highest quality care for your pet; ranging from vaccines, wellness lab testing, basic outpatient treatment of wounds, infections, and illnesses to inpatient intensive care/medical management with continuous monitoring as well as emergency lifesaving surgery.

We are centrally located for residents of Bradenton, Anna Maria Island, Longboat Key, and surrounding areas so your pet can receive the care he or she needs as soon as possible. You can trust our skilled, dedicated veterinarians and staff to provide the best possible care for your pet no matter how mild or severe the illness is.
