Urgent Care by Appointment

Windrose Animal Hospital now offers Urgent Care by Appointment during our normal hours. This means that every day we are open, we now have an extra amount of guaranteed openings for routine sick patients that need to be seen on that day. For Exotic Pets, if Dr. Pease is not on duty, we will not be able to provide Urgent Care for Exotics at that time. This service is by appointment ONLY to avoid long wait times and walk-ins are NOT ACCEPTABLE. Typical appointments seen via our urgent care service include, but are not limited to, severe skin issues, ear infections, UTI's, limping issues, mild to moderate breathing/coughing issues, and GI issues, to name a few. Vaccines WILL NOT be given during these visits and depending on the examination and/or diagnostics that are preformed, you may still referred to a ER facility for further care.

​

Please call or text 724-779-8300 if you are feel

your pet needs seen on an urgent care basis!
