Pet Emergency Treatment is a walk-in clinic for animals that serves both the Anchorage bowl and Alaskan “bush” communities.
Pet Emergency Treatment is open 24 hours to provide emergency and critical care. We work closely with your pet’s regular veterinarian and send our findings to them for follow up care. It is our intention to specialize predominantly in the emergency treatment of sick and injured animals. For this reason, we don’t perform spays/neuters or dental work.
Pet Emergency Treatment service was established in 1978 by local veterinarians who saw the need to come together and share the workload in order to support an after-hours location so that in case of emergencies there would always be a doctor available. Pet Emergency Treatment is still supported by the veterinarians in Anchorage and the surrounding areas (e.g., Eagle River, Seward, Kenai). Pet Emergency Treatment is designed and dedicated to providing the best possible emergency medical and surgical services for your pet when your regular veterinarian is not available. We moved to a state of the art facility in 2006 to facilitate this goal. And, as of 2011, we have upgraded to a digital x-ray unit on site that allows us to burn to CD. With experienced veterinarians to interpret the x-rays, we can save precious moments and make the difference between life and death in an emergency.
- What is an emergency? Any unforeseen medical or surgical problem your pet may have which you determine requires professional attention. A few examples include fight wounds, porcupine encounters, severe coughing, vomiting and or diarrhea, bleeding, any accident, poisoning, or other severe or acute disorders.
Pet Emergency Treatment also has a migratory bird permit which allows us to temporarily treat migratory birds.
In 2007, and every year afterward, the staff at Pet Emergency Treatment Inc. has successfully completed a rigorous, voluntary accreditation process through the American Animal Hospital Association. This process requires that the hospital meet specific, nationally recognized standards in various aspects of veterinary medicine. These included surgery, emergency medicine, client service, medical records, pain management, patient care, diagnostic imaging, and continuing education. This accreditation is only shared with about 13% of veterinary hospitals across the country and we are proud to be one of them.
