What is Veterinary Emergency & Critical Care?
- Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care is no different from Emergency and Critical Care in human beings. If your pet has an emergency or has a life-threatening condition, such as trauma, shock, or any other major illness or injury- this requires prompt medical attention.
- Many of the patients we see are critical and will require ongoing care in our intensive care unit (ICU). Our team of emergency and critical care doctors and veterinary nurses are here for your pet 24 hours a day and are the closest animal hospital with these capabilities in Coral Springs.
- This level of care improves the likelihood that your pet will have a better outcome when dealing with life-threatening illnesses or injuries.
