Experiencing an Emergency?

During office hours, we are fully equipped and ready to help with all your emergency and critical care needs. If you find that you need emergency assistance after hours, we recommend any of the hospitals listed below. They are available when we are closed, and we trust them for quality care!  In the event you must visit the emergency clinic,  we will receive a record of your visit so we can follow up if your pet needs further care.

NOTE: There are times when emergency hospitals reach capacity and cannot take any further emergencies. To avoid wasting precious time, you MUST CALL the emergency hospital in advance to inquire if they are taking patients. If so, they will be ready for you when you arrive.

For your convenience, we have provided the contact and website information for the after-hours locations here.  Scroll down to find the one closest to you that suites your needs.
