We’re pleased to offer Vista and Oceanside the following services at our Veterinary Clinic:

Appointments

Our appointment system is computerized which allows us to efficiently schedule for your pet. Our receptionists will work to accommodate appointment requests compatible with your schedule. 760-758-2091

Emergency

Emergencies are accepted anytime the doctor is in and the clinic is open. If you feel you have an emergency with your pet, please call us immediately at 760-758-2091 If possible, it is best to call first to ensure the doctors and staff are ready and available to assist your pet. Life threatening emergencies always take precedence over regularly scheduled appointments. We have a veterinarian and support staff on duty 6 days a week. Our staff is trained and equipped to handle any emergency your pet may have. 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 a poisoning, hit by car, bee sting or chocolate ingestion. If you feel that your pet needs emergency treatment do not hesitate to call or come in immediately.

Urgent Care

Call between 8am and 10am for a guaranteed same day appointment for any Urgent Care problem. 760-758-2091

We are also available for Urgent Care when the condition is not life-threatening, but requires prompt medical attention. Our receptionists will accommodate your pet by scheduling the next availability or “squeezing you in” between scheduled appointments. When you arrive, our receptionists will be able to give you an estimate on wait time, if any.
