As many of you may already be aware, there is not currently an emergency hospital offering emergency services for pets between the hours of 12am-8am in Central Oregon at this time. In response to this change, the team at East Bend Animal Hospital has recently started offering temporary on-call emergency services for our current, established clients and their pets.
If you are a current client of East Bend Animal Hospital, and you believe your pet is experiencing a medical emergency between the hours of 11:45pm and 8am, please call the clinic at (541)318-0090 (do not leave a voicemail as our clinic’s voicemail is not checked outside of our regular daytime business hours). Your call will be transferred to a calling service for triage, and our on-call veterinarian will be contacted if medical care is warranted. If the situation is deemed emergent, you will be instructed to meet the on-call medical team East Bend Animal Hospital, at a specific time, to receive care for your pet. It is important to note that a few of our team members live outside of Bend, and it will require additional travel time to arrive at the hospital (approximately 45 minutes). The team will do their best to get to the hospital quickly and safely to assist your pet if there is an emergency.
An emergency exam fee is $300 (this does not include any diagnostics or necessary treatment recommended by the veterinarian after examination). Payment is due at time of service. We accept cash, check, credit card, and care credit are at our hospital.
We are happy to be able to provide this new, temporary service. Thank you for your patience and support while we navigate this new territory.
Sincerely,
The Team at East Bend Animal Hospital
