  Emergency

Valley Farm Animal hospital is a fully equipped Veterinary Hospital, and is staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year with Veterinarians, nurses and support staff.

We are geared to deal with all kinds of emergencies at any hour of the day or night. Even out of our standard consulting hours staff are on site and will quickly assist you with your emergency.

After a thorough examination by the doctor on duty, a treatment plan will be advised. With access to state-of-the-art facilities such as in-house laboratory, ultrasound, endoscopes and a digital x-ray facility a diagnosis can be made promptly in most cases.

Our High Care Unit allows us to look after pets that remain in a critical condition, even after emergency treatment has been given.

The on duty doctor and nurse are responsible for critical care and constant monitoring of all inpatients. A surgeon is on call to deal with advanced cases should the need arise.

Typical examples of emergencies include: trauma cases, motor vehicle accidents, dog bite wounds, lacerations; toxicities such as snakebites, gastric dilation surgeries, caesarian sections, organ failure; liver, kidney or cardiac; status epilepticus and seizures.
