Are specialists available on an emergency basis?
CARE Center’s board-certified specialists are available for consultation with our emergency veterinarians whenever our ER vets feel it appropriate. In cases where that specialist’s expertise is required immediately, they will come in. So, for example, if your pet came in at 2a.m. and required surgery on his back immediately, one of our surgical specialists would come in to do the surgery. If that pet needed a cardiology consultation, but was stable, that consultation would occur during typical appointment hours the next day.
