Contacting Vets in an emergency:

When faced with a veterinary emergency, it is a good idea to telephone ahead to the Animal Emergency Centre, with the animal's breed and approximate size, present symptoms and any other health problems.
Whilst on the telephone, we suggest you confirm the exact location of the Animal Emergency Centre closest to you.

Please note: patients are seen in order of urgency, not order of arrival. At times, there may be a wait before a veterinarian is available. We appreciate your patience whilst we attend to patients with immediately life-threatening problems.

After the emergency:
Once the pet's condition has been stabilised, they may be hospitalised at the Animal Emergency Centre until your regular veterinary clinic is open. You will need to make arrangements to transfer the pet back to their normal vet. Other times, the pet will return home with you and you will be asked to visit your regular veterinarian for follow-up when appropriate.
