Care of Inpatients Out-of-Hours

Our out-of-hours emergency service is staffed by vets employed by Craig Robinson Vets. If your pet stays with us overnight the duty vet will decide how frequently assessments or treatments are required. There is usually nobody on the premises continuously overnight as the surgery is located on a business estate and does not have accommodation. Inpatients are assessed before the duty vet leaves the surgery at about 8.00pm and at least once during the night after 10.30pm. If there is any significant changes in your pet’s condition the duty vet will attempt to contact you. If your pet requires more intensive treatment than we are able to provide you will be offered referral to an alternative service provider.
