EmergenciesThe clinic states plainly on its emergency resources page: 'Please note that we are not an emergency hospital. Due to area shortages, we do not carry blood products.' It holds back urgent appointment slots each day, but only for current clients, and non-scheduled or drop-off visits incur additional fees. For urgent problems it recommends Tell Tail Veterinary Urgent Care in San Diego, and after hours it lists 24-hour hospitals including VCA Animal Specialty Group Kearny Mesa, Veterinary Specialty Hospital Sorrento Valley, and Veterinary Emergency Group Encinitas. Avian and exotic emergencies are referred to Pet Emergency & Specialty Center in La Mesa.

Before the bill

Pet insurance covers the next thing, not this one.

Anything already going on counts as pre-existing from the day a policy starts. That is why the time to look is before the visit that costs, not after it.
