During our regular office hours, we do our best to accommodate pets in urgent situations. However, for critical emergencies such as severe trauma (e.g., being hit by a car), we may not have the specialized resources required for full treatment. If your pet is experiencing an emergency, please call us at (240) 205-8300 before heading to our clinic. This helps us assess the situation and guide you to the most appropriate care.
