Mack's grand mom, Pam Smith, passed away suddenly on Sunday. Mack will be providing a lot of love and therapy to the family for a little while. Just in case you reach out to Mack, he may take a little while to get back to you.

New 24/7 emergency vet in northeastern PA!

We’re excited and incredibly proud to officially introduce ourselves as the owners of Steamtown Veterinary Center, a privately owned veterinary practice.

Hi everyone! We’re Dr. Adam Ryan and Dr. Jessica Sheruda-Ryan. Opening Steamtown Veterinary Center is truly a dream coming true for us. We both grew up here in Northeast PA, met years ago at Scranton Prep, and attended the University of Scranton for undergrad. Each of us then went our own separate ways to become veterinarians with Dr. Jess attending the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Adam attending Midwestern University. After years of training and experience, we felt called to bring something meaningful back to the community that raised us.

We started Steamtown Veterinary Center because we saw a growing need in our community for affordable, high quality urgent and emergency veterinary care. Too often, families are faced with long wait times, long drives, or limited options during stressful moments. As local veterinarians, we hope to be able to bridge that gap. We wanted to create a place where pets could receive advanced medical and surgical care close to home, delivered with compassion, transparency, and respect for the families who love them.

Steamtown Veterinary Center was built with one goal in mind: to provide affordable and compassionate, high quality urgent, emergency, and surgical care when pets and their families need it most. We believe in treating every patient like our own, supporting families through difficult moments, practicing thoughtful, evidence based medicine, and creating a positive, team focused environment for our staff.

Dr. Jess grew up on a beef cattle farm where her love for animals began. She has a strong background in emergency care. Dr. Adam’s professional interests include surgery and dentistry, with a long standing passion for hands on patient care.

As local veterinarians and small business owners, we are deeply committed to serving this community with integrity, kindness, and excellence. We cannot wait to open our doors and care for your pets.

Thank you for your support. It truly means the world to us!

Dr. Adam Ryan & Dr. Jessica Sheruda-Ryan

Great job, Officer Vecchi! Mack and I are lucky to be able to work with an officer like Chris who takes care of business when the chips are down. There were 11 people in the three houses, and 10 made it out alive thanks to Chris and the fire fighters. 🙏 for Connor Vest and his family.
