Urgent Veterinary Care
Emergency consultations aren’t just about fast action—they’re about providing the right care at the right time. When you arrive, our team will assess your pet’s condition and prioritise treatment based on urgency.
We commonly see cases involving trauma such as road accidents, fights, snake bites and injured wildlife. Every case is different, which is why we tailor our approach to suit your pet’s needs. Our hospital includes dedicated spaces for treatment, monitoring and recovery, with modern equipment and skilled staff ready to respond.
During the consultation, we’ll explain your pet’s condition and outline the next steps, whether stabilisation, further diagnostics or immediate treatment. If needed, we’ll provide written estimates before admission and keep you updated throughout your pet’s stay.
Emergencies are never easy, but with the right team beside you, you’re never alone. Contact us anytime you’re worried about your pet—we’d rather see them early than too late.
What are common signs that a pet needs emergency vet care?
Common signs that your pet may need emergency care include difficulty breathing, seizures, sudden collapse, uncontrolled bleeding, pale gums or poisoning symptoms such as drooling, vomiting or unsteadiness. Heat stroke, snake bites and trauma like car accidents also require urgent attention. If in doubt, call a vet immediately for advice.
Can I go to the vet without an appointment in an emergency?
In most emergency situations, you can visit a vet without an appointment, but it’s recommended to call ahead. This allows the clinic to prepare for your arrival and advise you on immediate steps. Walk-ins are usually triaged, meaning pets with life-threatening conditions are seen before those with less critical needs.
Can I stay with my pet during an emergency consultation?
In many cases, you can stay with your pet during the initial assessment, depending on the clinic's setup and the nature of the emergency. However, for certain procedures or stabilisation efforts, you may be asked to wait outside to allow the veterinary team to work quickly and safely.
