In the event of an out of hours emergeny, please call our practice directly to be transferred to our emergency care provider or call our out of hours telephone number: 0204 587 8051
Your call will be answered by a Registered Veterinary Nurse at our out of hours provider, Veteris. The nurse will help work through your concern and where possible will offer advice over the telephone. If your pet requires veterinary attention, the nurse will arrange for a vet to visit your pet in your own home or invite you to reach their facility in Shoreditch.
Our veterinary colleagues at Veteris are experienced at providing a wide range of services such as intravenous drips, blood sampling or ultrasound examinations in your home. If hopsitalisation is required, the nurse or the vet attending your home will arrange a transfer to their own hospital facility or to the closest emergency hospital able to receive your pet.
Veteris will oversee the whole process to make sure that you and your pet are in safe hands. Their vets are trained in low-stress handling techniques and carry specific equipment with them to keep your cat or dog as comfortable as possible. Veteris send us full reports following their treatment of your pet which we are then added to their medical records here at Uxbridge Vets.
