Appointments
EMERGENCY CARE
VCA Cheshire Animal Hospital is fully staffed by veterinarians, licensed veterinary technicians, assistants, and client care specialists 24 hours a day, 365 days a year for all types of pet medical emergencies. You do not need a referral or an appointment to be seen for an emergency, however, we do recommend that you call ahead, if possible, at
203-272-3266. We may suggest first aid measures you can take immediately, and we will be best prepared for your arrival.
SPECIALTY CARE
Patients are typically referred to VCA Cheshire Animal Hospital by their regular, primary care veterinarian for specialty care. Your regular veterinarian will send our hospital a referral form that will describe your pet's problem and identify the appropriate specialty department to see your pet.
Specialist consultations, procedures and surgery are by appointment. To schedule an appointment for your pet with one of our veterinary specialists, please call us at
203-272-3266, and we'll be happy to assist. We ask new clients to arrive 15 minutes in advance of their appointment to allow adequate time to prepare a medical record for their pet.
Alternately, you may fill out the online appointment form below. (If you are in doubt about your appointment needs, please call us, and we will be more than happy to help you. Please note that some appointment types cannot be made online.) Within 1 business day after you fill out the form, we will call you to confirm the date and time of your pet's appointment with you.
PET VISITATION HOURS
VCA Cheshire Animal Hospital is pleased to allow you to visit your hospitalized pet during our regular visiting hours from 9 AM through 11 PM, except for 12 Noon - 2 PM and 5 – 7 PM when pets are receiving their treatments. Please call and make arrangements with your pet’s doctor in advance of your visit.
Under special circumstances, arrangements may be made with your pet's veterinarian for visitation outside regular visiting hours. Please call to speak with one of our hospital’s Client Care Specialists who will assist you with these arrangements.
We look forward to seeing you. If you should have questions, please feel free to call us at
203-272-3266. Thank you.
