ARISE Veterinary Center

What ARISE Veterinary Center does

ARISE Veterinary Center (Arizona Regional Intensive Care, Specialty & Emergency) operates a 24/7 emergency and specialty veterinary hospital from a 33,000 sq. ft., two-story facility in Queen Creek, Arizona. It is the only Level 1 VECCS-certified hospital in Arizona and holds AAHA Level 1 accreditation, with board-certified specialists across emergency and critical care, internal medicine, surgery, radiology, and cardiology. Its service portfolio spans round-the-clock emergency and critical care, advanced diagnostic imaging (MRI, CT, fluoroscopy, ultrasound, digital radiography), surgery (orthopedic, soft tissue, minimally invasive), hemodialysis and extracorporeal blood purification, cardiology, and a volunteer blood donor program.

The business operates as a hybrid direct-to-consumer and B2B-referral model: pet owners access emergency walk-in care 24/7/365 without referral, while specialty services are delivered by appointment and sourced in part through a structured referring veterinarian (RDVM) program with online referral forms, reduced transfer fees, and a 48-hour callback commitment. Revenue is generated through fee-for-service professional charges for consultations, diagnostics, procedures, hospitalizations, and specialty treatments; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Financing partners CareCredit and Scratchpay are offered to manage consumer affordability for high-cost emergency and specialty cases.

The hospital is owned by National Veterinary Associates (NVA) and functions as part of the AVECCC (Arizona Veterinary Emergency & Critical Care Center) network, with sister facilities in Gilbert, Peoria, and Buckeye. It operates sub-brands ARISE Academy (continuing education for veterinary professionals) and ARISE VetCare Fund (charitable financial assistance for emergency care). Geographic reach is concentrated in the East Valley of the Phoenix metro (Queen Creek, Gilbert, Chandler, Mesa, San Tan Valley, Florence), serving as a regional referral and emergency hub for the surrounding area.
