Emergencies happen. Humans can go to the emergency room at the hospital if they have an immediate, life-threatening condition. But what about your furry family members? Jacksonville, Florida, pet parents can bring their pets to an emergency vet such as Bluestar Pet Hospital and Grooming.
When would you need an emergency vet?
Jacksonville, Florida, area pet parents who are in a situation with their pet where immediate care is needed will want to connect with one of our two locations in Jacksonville and St. Johns to let us know they are on their way. We can provide emergency vet care at our sufficiently equipped animal hospital for pets who are new or have been to us before. We encourage calls before coming in so we can prepare for your pet’s arrival and handle their needs as soon as you come through the doors!
What kind of emergency care might be performed?
First, our team will quickly assess your pet to determine the extent of the issue. That may include diagnostic imaging to find the source of the problem. Once the problem has been diagnosed, the pet parent will be given the information to make a well-informed decision regarding the next steps to get their pet healthy. Surgery or other procedures may be necessary to bring your pet back to health, and our team will discuss the payment options available for these to ensure that they are not a burden. In situations where the pet’s condition cannot be improved, we provide euthanasia in our private rooms to help you make the right choice for your pet’s needs and current quality of life. We want to provide care for all dogs and cats and help them stay healthy, which is why routine evaluations are vital to monitoring for potential problems down the road.
