Same Day and Urgent Care
Alpine Animal Hospital takes pride in keeping same day or urgent visit spots saved. This spots are held for current clients but we will do our best to get new clients in for urgent needs as well. Urgent and same day appointments are used on a "first come, first served" basis. This mean that calling the office first thing in the morning is most likely to reserve a spot.
We have a veterinarian and personnel on duty six days a week who are trained and equipped to handle any urgent care your pet has. Usually an emergency team consists of at least one veterinarian and several technicians working together to save a pet's life. Emergencies can be things such as accidental ingestion of rat poison, hit by car, and chocolate ingestion. If you ever feel that your pet needs emergency treatment do not hesitate to call or come in immediately.
We are also available for urgent care when the condition is not life-threatening. If you feel your pet needs to be seen before you are able to get an appointment, our veterinarians will work to "squeeze" you in between scheduled appointments. In the event we can not get your pet seen we will refer you to one of the local emergency clinics.
Our receptionists and team will attempt to accommodate all requests to the best of our ability. If you feel you have an emergency with your pet, please call us so we can direct you best on the next steps. On Saturday's you may be referred to the emergency clinic as our Saturday staff is smaller.
