Back Bay Veterinary Clinic

Emergency Resources

We're available to provide emergency veterinary care for dogs and cats during our regular office hours. Life happens, and some things simply can't wait.

If your pet is experiencing an emergency, please call us at (617) 247-2273 before you arrive so we can prepare for your visit. Upon arrival, we'll assess and stabilize your pet to ensure they receive the best care possible.

If you’re uncertain about your pet’s condition, give us a call. We'll help you determine the best next course of action.

What if My Dog and Cat have an Vet Emergency After Hours?

Don't worry; you have options! We're proud to partner with GuardianVets to provide after-hours "tele-triage" services. If you call after hours with a vet emergency, you'll be transferred through to this service and receive the support you need from a licensed veterinarian or credentialed veterinary technician. They'll answer any questions you have, assess your pet's situation, and instruct you in what to do next.

Additionally, there are a couple of outstanding 24-hour emergency referral hospitals nearby. If your pet visits one of these hospitals, ensure they know that your pet is a patient at BBVC and they will send all of your pet's treatment information to our practice. This allows our team to review the care your pet received and provide a more informed follow-up to see how you're doing.
