Emergency Care

The Emergency and Critical Care department at Westbury Animal Hospital knows that pets aren’t like family, they are family.

That is why we offer 24-hour emergency and critical care, every day of the year.

Our expert emergency and critical care teams are comprised of highly trained emergency veterinarians and an expert support staff who combine their knowledge and skill to treat pets facing even the most challenging medical emergencies.

In addition to providing excellent care, we prioritize communication and collaboration between our clients, primary care veterinarians, and our in-house specialty services to ensure that each patient has a treatment plan that is best for their individual health needs.
