You may be referred to our hospital for any of the following reasons:

	You have an emergency with your pet after your veterinarian's regular office hours
	Your pet needs advanced life support equipment such as continuous oxygen administration, ECG monitoring, drug infusion, or ventilation
	Your pet needs continual critical-care monitoring due to the severity of his or her medical condition
	You prefer that your pet have overnight post-surgical or post-anesthetic monitoring for complications and/or pain management
	Your pet is recovering slowly from surgery or anesthesia and your veterinarian recommends overnight monitoring for his/her safety
	Your pet needs immediate lab tests run to facilitate diagnosis and patient care
	You would like to have an advanced diagnostic procedure such as ultrasound or endoscopy performed
	Your pet requires a surgical procedure when your regular veterinarian is unavailable

Please note that we do not provide vaccinations or perform routine health procedures at our facility. Our practice is designed to support, not compete with, your regular daytime veterinary hospital. As nearly 40% of clients visiting our facility have not established a relationship with a family veterinarian, we strongly encourage them to do so. We feel this is in their pet’s best interest. Based upon the location of your home, our staff will assist you in selecting a family veterinary hospital if you do not already have one.

We believe that, by working closely with our referring veterinarians, we are able to create a coordinated team of medical professionals, providing patients with the best possible medical care.
