    Philosophy

    At CKVC, we believe that each of our companion animals is precious and deserves the best of care. We 'go the extra mile' to ensure that our patients are comfortable, clean and cared for. Each of our patients rests on soft, clean and cushioned bedding. Cats are housed in a 'cats only' ward where kennels are kept clean and where the cats are regularly petted and talked to. Dogs are walked outside at least four times daily. Our dog and cat wards are located so that our patients are continuously observed in the middle of the working part of the hospital. Patients are our top priority.

    Honesty and integrity are important components of our hospital. We are straightforward about fees and anticipated outcome for each of our patients. We want you to feel informed and involved in the decision making process involving your pet's care.

    Blood Bank

    Veterinary transfusion medicine has undergone tremendous growth in recent years. Patients that are being treated for trauma or those requiring surgery may depend on blood transfusions for survival. CKVC has performed many blood transfusions with great success. Blood transfusions are most often administered to treat profound anemia. They may also be indicated in cases of rat poison ingestion, clotting disorders and other conditions. Because of increased demand for blood products, we are asking clients to consider volunteering their pet for our Blood Donor Program. Our donors must be selected and meet the following criteria:

    • Between 2 and 8 years of age.
    • Dogs must be at least 50 pounds.
    • Cats must be at least 8 pounds, spayed and never have been pregnant.
    • Must not be taking medications except for heartworm and flea prevention.
    • Annual complete blood count and chemistry profile should be obtained.
    • Dogs and cats must be screened for tick and heartworm disease.
    • Cats must be indoor only and be screened for Feline Leukemia, FIV and Haemobartonella.
    • Must be current on vaccinations, heartworm prevention and flea prevention.

    Central Kansas Vet Center will provide blood typing, tick and heartworm disease testing, annual blood work, feline leukemia, FIV and haemobartonella testing, annual fecal evaluation for parasites and an annual exam with vaccinations for blood donors at no cost to owners. Blood donors will also receive a discount on any emergency services they might need. Please call Janessa at CKVC if you have an interest in the blood donor program.

    Comment/Review
    H.J. Friendly and very caring Doctor's and other staff members. Always feel like my pets are in good hands while we are there.
    A.C. So very impressed with this place! All staff were warm and welcoming, listened to my concerns, were gentle with my nervous pittie, very affordable emergency care (even on a Sunday, that happened to also be a holiday! ), lastly, they called the day after care to check in and see how my girl was doing! I'm certain this is our new vet, and we will definitely be using them for all of our future veterinary needs! Thank you guys so much!
    A.D. We had our first experience with the VCA Central Kansas Animal Hospital a week ago, after our vet in Wichita felt a large mass in our 13 y/o dog's spleen during a routine exam (which was then confirmed by ultrasound). They recommended the spleen be removed before it ruptured, and the VCA hospital was one of three options they referred us to for a splenectomy. So we called them and were able to get the surgery scheduled within a couple days. In the meantime they also provided a detailed estimate so we knew what the potential costs would be. Getting checked in on surgery day was easy and we didn't have to wait long for a room. We had a lot of questions which they kindly answered. Dr. Rockenbach performed the surgery and everything went well. They provided us a couple updates over the phone that day, and we were able to pick up our dog the following morning. It's been a week now and he's doing great; he never even seemed to be in any pain or discomfort after coming home. The incision is very clean. The staff also followed up with us via text and email in the couple days afterward. I was extremely nervous about this surgery going into it, so I'm very thankful for Dr. Rockenbach's expertise and the overall communication from the staff during the whole experience!
    B.F. They are all wonderful! Truly can feel the love for my fur babies. I had left this location for financial reasons. And started going to a cheaper local vet. Quality of care is so much more important than cost. After losing one of our wonderful kitty's due to kidney failure after a misdiagnosis from another, VCA tried everything they could to save our guy. And were aman while we went through the end of life. Highly recommend this location.
    R.R. We live 45 minutes away and would make the trip every day for our fur babies. This is actually a vet that cares, which is rare now-a-days. They don't suggest a bunch of unnecessary things just to make money, they care about the customers also!
    T.W. Very loving, caring staff. We had to say goodbye to a 14 year old friend and the atmosphere was very comfortable. The staff seemed to have as much love for him as we did. Thank you for always taking care of him!
    L.J. They have always been very caring. When we lost our dog Frankie several years ago, I rushed him in here. They gave him medicine for comfort and let me sit with him until he passed. They had a tech sit with me while they got him ready to come home to be buried. He was wrapped in a blanket, placed in a little cardboard coffin with his name, date and paw print on it and they put him in my car. A few days later I called to see what the charge was. They said no charge. This won my husband I for life. We will gladly pay a little more. You can't have enough empathy and kindness at those times. They're great with the animals and my dogs love going. Sometimes human decency and compassion are priceless. I highly recommend going here.
