Serving Volusia and Flagler CountIES' Pets in EMERGENCIES
A trip to the veterinarian is never fun for pets, but it’s sometimes a necessity. Animal Emergency Hospital Volusia is a modern, 24-hour emergency pet hospital dedicated to helping pets and their families. Our emergency veterinarians and professional support team are always onsite to provide the reliable services your pet needs when they have an accident or fall ill outside of normal veterinarian hours.
Important curbside service note: Our caseload is still extremely high and wait times may be extended. We are working to see the most critical patients as soon as possible. Because of this, we continue to be curbside to avoid large numbers of people into our lobby at one time. Pet owners will be invited to enter the hospital for euthanasia, discharge, and other specific situations. We appreciate your patience as we address the needs of the high volume of patients needing emergency and critical care in our community.
