ANIMAL SURGICAL & EMERGENCY CENTER

We believe that good communication is the foundation of a referral practice. Your veterinarian will receive a report of your pet's care after every visit. You will also receive a report of each visit. California law requires us to keep all original records on file here, since they are hospital property.

We accept referral cases at any time, day or night, seven days a week. ICU doctors are present 24 hours a day; one or more of the surgeons are always present or on call.

Our goal is to provide the best quality of care and service for your pet. Our fees are typical of specialty hospitals providing advanced medical care. An estimate of costs will be given to you before diagnostic work, treatment, or surgery is performed, and a deposit will be collected at that time. The balance is due when your pet is discharged from the hospital.

Our goal is to serve our referring veterinarians by supporting and extending the care that can be provided to your pet. Your general practice veterinarian is very competent in the medical and surgical care of your pet. However, when a difficult case requires advanced surgical training, specialized instruments and techniques, or advanced intensive care and life support capabilities, your veterinarian may refer your pet for specialized treatment.We try to make this process as easy and convenient as possible for the client and the referring veterinarian.
