Daytime Urgent and Emergency Pet Care


No one wants to face the moment when a beloved pet suddenly becomes ill or injured—but when it happens, fast access to compassionate, expert care makes all the difference. At Westside Veterinary Hospital, we understand how overwhelming it can be to find emergency help, especially during daytime hours when most clinics are booked or referring cases elsewhere. That’s why we proudly offer same-day urgent care appointments when medically appropriate.
​

Thanks to our growing medical capabilities and a skilled team of doctors, we can often accommodate a limited number of daytime emergency visits. Our triage-trained staff will assess your pet’s condition and determine if it’s safe and effective to treat them in our facility. When more advanced care is needed, we’ll guide you in transferring to a specialized overnight hospital or an intensive care center.  

While we don’t offer overnight or ICU-level services, continuous oxygen support, and certain truly emergent trauma care, our overarching goal is to stabilize and treat as many cases as possible during the day, saving you the time, stress, and cost of a full emergency referral. When you seek a trusted urgent/emergency vet near Wilkes Barre, PA, we're here to keep your pet comfortable in a moment of need.

The Importance of Quality Veterinary Services


Your pet is more than just an animal—they’re a beloved member of your family. That’s why quality veterinary care isn’t just a convenience, it’s a necessity. From routine wellness checks to diagnostics and surgical procedures, a trusted veterinary team plays a vital role in your pet’s long-term health and happiness. Early detection of health issues, personalized treatment plans, and consistent preventative care all contribute to a longer, more comfortable life for your furry friend.

High-quality veterinary services also give you confidence as a pet owner. Knowing your vet takes the time to understand your pet’s individual needs, history, and personality makes every visit more meaningful. Whether it’s managing chronic conditions or addressing sudden behavioral changes, our team of experienced and collaborative veterinarians can spot subtle signs to recommend the right course of action.
​

Your peace of mind—and your pet’s health—are always our top priorities.
