Frequently Asked Questions
How is my pet’s condition handled during an emergency visit to Animal Emergency Hospital DeLand?
When you bring your pet in, our team will perform an initial assessment to determine how urgently they need care. Pets with life-threatening conditions are treated first, so more stable patients may experience some wait time. Our priority is to provide timely, compassionate care for every pet based on their immediate needs.
Can you care for exotic or non-traditional pets?
Yes, our team at Animal Emergency Hospital DeLand is experienced in treating a variety of species, including birds, reptiles, and other exotic pets. We’re equipped to handle emergencies involving both traditional and non-traditional animals with the same level of attentive, expert care.
How long will it take before my pet is seen?
Once you arrive, our team will evaluate your pet to determine the urgency of their condition. Those in critical need are treated first, which can lead to some wait time for pets who are stable. We do our best to minimize delays while making sure every pet receives the attention they need as soon as possible.
What other services are available besides emergency care?
In addition to emergency and critical care, Animal Emergency Hospital DeLand offers a range of supportive services including advanced diagnostics, surgery, pain management, rehabilitation, and medical boarding. These services allow us to provide continuous care for pets with ongoing or complex medical needs.
Do you accept pet insurance or offer payment plans?
