We are open 24/7/365

For our specialty services we do require an appointment to be seen.

For emergency services we ask that you call ahead to be triaged.

Please call us, 301-200-8185, and we can help determine what your pet needs and what the next steps are.

Emergencies are life-threatening and require immediate intervention. Our teams are here 24/7 to help you get your pet to us as quickly and safely as possible.

Urgent care cases are not life-threatening and do not need immediate intervention.

During a phone call our team will ask questions to determine when your pet needs to be seen. These questions may include:

• Is your pet experiencing any vomiting or diarrhea?
• Is your pet eating and drinking normally?
• Has your pet been exposed to any toxins?
• Is your pet able to walk/move?

We offer emergency care when your primary care veterinarian is not available. We also work with your primary care veterinarian when specialty services like surgery, oncology, cardiology, internal medicine, or neurology are needed. This includes advanced diagnostics such CT, and MRI scans.

The difference between Partner Veterinary Emergency & Specialty Center and other emergency clinics is our focus on the ability to help. The Partner team has the ability and resources to provide information, answer questions, and assist in navigating the care needed for your pet.

While you do not need a referral, we see ourselves as an extension of your primary care veterinarian, so we do recommend a referral.
