Why Choose Us for Emergencies?
When the swift expertise of a board-certified criticalist – or simply having the right equipment such as a ventilator on-site – is literally the difference between life and death, seconds count. We hope you never need an emergency vet, but if you do, we’re ready, equipped and trained to help your pet or patient pull through a time of crisis.
Certified to handle trauma
Staffed, trained and equipped with the tools to handle any major trauma, we are a VECCS Certified Level 1 facility and a VetCOT Provisional Trauma Center.
Equipped to save lives
Just like a human general hospital has specialized equipment that a walk-in clinic usually doesn’t, we have life-saving tools like a ventilator, high flow oxygen, MRI, CT scanner, endoscopic cameras, C-ARM fluoroscopy and an oxygen cage.
Specialists in life-threatening emergencies
Board-certified criticalists are in the hospital 7 days per week and available on-call. Experienced emergency vets and ICU technicians are trained in CPR so that patients in cardiac arrest can be treated immediately.
Open 24 / 7 / 365
Our ER & Critical Care department is open 24 / 7 / 365 for all emergency cases. No referral required. Walk-ins welcome.
Confidence during a crisis
If you know your pet has a crisis, go straight to where a team of specialists have the tools they need to improve the odds of a good outcome.
Expertise when it counts the most
Criticalists and specialists (neurology, surgery, internal medicine, cardiology, oncology, radiology) are on staff and on-call if required for emergencies.
