Emergency Services
In an emergency, seconds count. Our experienced staff is equipped to administer the ABC's of basic life support—Airway, Breathing, Circulation/Cardiac compressions, as well as emergency surgery when necessary. When possible, we ask that you call ahead before bringing your pet in for emergency treatment. This allows us to better prepare for your pet's care, and be ready when you arrive. If we feel the case is complex, we may refer your pet to a critical care facility after we have stabilized him or her.
University Place Veterinary Hospital offers emergency care during regular business hours.

- Puget Sound Veterinary Referral Center: 253-474-0791 http://www.theaec.com
