Local Veterinarian Hospital to be Chronicled in “Live PD”-Like “Animal ER Live”
Veterinary Specialty Care in Mt. Pleasant will be one of seven animal emergency rooms and services featured in Nat Geo WILD’s Animal ER Live, a four-week, live event series from the creators of Live PD. The show will air Saturday and Sunday nights at 9 pm, premiering on Saturday, March 30th.
Based out of a studio in New York City, host Mark Steines, an Emmy Award-winning journalist, will be joined by veterinary experts Dr. Justine Lee and Dr. Will Draper as they guide viewers through the night, giving commentary on what audiences are seeing in real time as cameras bounce to and from the featured animal hospitals and mobile vet emergency units.
Each episode of Animal ER Live will trail teams of emergency veterinarians and specialists as they work tirelessly through the night to save the lives of our pets from coast to coast, giving viewers insight into the extraordinary and unpredictable world of urgent animal care. The series will also follow a wide range of touching cases in emergency rooms and waiting rooms, and accompany on-call vets to homes and farms to treat animals that are too sick or too big to travel.
