Guidance When Your Pet Needs Immediate Care
When your pet experiences a sudden illness or injury, it can be difficult to know what to do next. Rice Creek Animal Hospital is not an emergency or urgent care clinic, and our visits are primarily provided through pre-scheduled appointments.
If you are concerned about your pet during our business hours, please call our team at 651-483-6128. We are happy to discuss your pet's symptoms over the phone and help guide you toward the most appropriate next step. When possible and appropriate, our team may be able to accommodate your pet based on appointment availability and their medical needs.
For pets experiencing a serious or time-sensitive emergency, we may recommend immediate care at a dedicated emergency or urgent veterinary facility.
Your Pet's Care Continues With Our Team
When your pet has been treated at an emergency or urgent care facility and is ready for follow-up care, Rice Creek Animal Hospital is here to continue supporting their ongoing health needs. Our team can work with you to schedule appropriate follow-up care and help your pet transition back to their regular veterinary care.
If you are unsure whether your pet's condition requires immediate emergency attention, call Rice Creek Animal Hospital at 651-483-6128 during business hours. Our team will do its best to provide guidance and help direct you toward the appropriate level of care.
