Emergency care services for primarily cats and dogs

Veterinary clinic with an exterior view, reception area, and animal cages.
Affordable Animal Emergency Clinic provides emergency care services for primarily cats and dogs. Occasionally we see exotic pets, reptiles and birds in our emergency clinic; however, we ask that our clients call us first before bringing in your sick bird, exotic pet or reptile. Not all doctors on duty can or are qualified to treat avians, reptiles or exotic pets.
