Conveniently located in downtown Decatur, Animal Emergency Center of Decatur (AECD) provides after hour and holiday emergency pet care 7 days a week. AECD shares space with The Village Vets of Decatur at 217 North McDonough Street, and is the only AAHA certified animal emergency facility in the state of Georgia.

We are a full service pet care facility that offers service to your pets when your regular veterinarian is closed (surgery, x-rays, blood work, and medications to name a few). Our goal is to provide metro Atlanta's special family members with the care they need, until they can get to their regular daytime doctor.
