Nashville Veterinary Specialists
Urgent Care Service
Led by Dr. Kayley Rodriguez, this unique service is designed for pets with urgent needs, but not of the typical nature of our emergency patients. By streamlining client needs, our urgent care can provide true, outpatient service to supplement the 24-hour emergency department. Any Urgent Care patients in need of more advanced treatment can be quickly transferred to the emergency department for critical care or 24-hour hospitalization.
Urgent care does not offer wellness checks, vaccines, or other services offered by primary care veterinarians. Please see your primary veterinary care provider for non-emergent medical needs.
