FAQ
How do I know if my pet needs emergency care or a regular vet visit?
If your pet is having trouble breathing, is in severe pain, bleeding, or something feels urgent, you should go to the emergency veterinary hospital right away.
For vaccines, mild symptoms, wellness care, or ongoing concerns, primary care is the right place to start. Click to book an appointment at our primary care hospital, Coastal Veterinary Care.
Our emergency hospital is open 7 days a week, call us anytime and we can help guide you to needed care.
Will my primary care vet and emergency team communicate with each other?
Yes.
Our teams share medical records and collaborate directly, so your pet’s care stays aligned before, during, and after an emergency visit.
Can I bring an injured wild animal to the ER?
No. It is illegal for anyone besides a state-appointed rehabilitator to provide care for wild animals. If you’ve found an animal that is injured or sick, please visit the Animal Help Now site at https://ahnow.org/ to find a wildlife rehabilitator near you.
Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?
Primary care visits are typically scheduled but we do accept walk-ins as well.
Walk-ins are always welcome at Mass-RI Veterinary ER. We recommend calling ahead if possible it allows us to prepare for your pet’s arrival and can reduce your wait time but we never turn away a pet in need.
How much does an emergency visit cost and what are my payment options?
Our emergency exam fee is $168. From there, costs depend on what your pet needs – diagnostics, treatment, or overnight care. We provide a clear estimate before anything begins so you can make the best decision for your pet and your family. We accept most pet insurance, CareCredit, and all major credit and debit cards.
What happens if my pet needs to stay overnight at the ER?
While we only admit patients between 8am-10pm we have veterinarians and nursing staff here 24 hours a day, 7 days a week so that your pet can be closely monitored and treated throughout the night.
Do you accept new patients across your network?
Yes. Our primary care locations accept new patients, and our emergency hospital is always available for any pet in need. Book an appointment today.
