Emergency & Urgent Care for Pets in Campbelltown

Emergency & Urgent Care for Pets in Campbelltown

When accidents happen or illness strikes suddenly, you need to know your pet is in safe hands.

At Campbelltown Veterinary Hospital, we provide compassionate and experienced emergency care for pets during our business hours — no appointment necessary.

We understand how stressful emergencies can be, which is why our team is here to act quickly, assess thoroughly, and provide your pet with the urgent attention they need.

What To Do In An Emergency

If you believe your pet requires emergency care, come straight to our hospital during opening hours. Where possible, ask someone to call ahead on (02) 4626 4222 so we can prepare for your arrival.

This allows us to be ready with any necessary equipment, medications, or support saving precious time when you arrive.

Common Pet Emergencies We See

Our experienced team is equipped to handle a wide range of urgent situations, including:

  • Car accidents or trauma
  • Poisoning or toxin ingestion
  • Breathing difficulties
  • Collapse or seizures
  • Heatstroke
  • Severe bleeding or wounds
  • Difficulty urinating or defecating
  • Swollen or painful abdomen
  • Sudden lameness or injury
  • Snake bites or tick paralysis
  • Birthing difficulties in pregnant pets

If you’re unsure whether your pet’s condition is an emergency, we encourage you to call us. It’s always better to check.

What To Expect When You Arrive

Upon arrival, your pet will be assessed promptly by one of our veterinarians or nurses. The most critical cases will always be prioritised.

Depending on your pet’s condition, we may:

  • Stabilise them immediately
  • Perform in-house diagnostic testing (blood tests, X-rays or ultrasound)
  • Administer pain relief or medication
  • Recommend hospitalisation for monitoring and treatment
  • Refer to an after-hours emergency centre for overnight care if required

Throughout your pet’s treatment, we’ll keep you informed with clear communication and honest advice.
