Emergency Veterinary Care When You Need It

We work with over 100 general practice veterinary hospitals in our region. We are staffed with emergency care clinicians 24 hours a day to receive new cases, monitor hospitalized patients, and care for surgery service patients. Working closely with your regular veterinarian, we are an extension of the excellent service they provide you and your pets.

Our hospital has a compassionate team of experienced veterinarians and support staff focused on emergency and critical care veterinary medicine. From minor injuries to upset stomachs to severe trauma, we are well-equipped and ready to help your pets 24 hours a day.

We provide your regular veterinarian with a complete report on your pet’s treatment, medical status, and needs for any follow-up care.
