Illness and Emergencies
Report
Certainly this list is not all inclusive!
If you suspect your pet is ill or has a medical concern, we encourage you to have the doctor's at Oconee Veterinary Hospital check your pet out instead of waiting it out to see if it will get better.
Waiting can cost your pet valuable time to diagnose and potentially correct whatever medical issue it is experiencing.
If you are concerned with a medical condition please call us and we can schedule an appointment usually very quickly.
Please understand that our staff is not able to suggest or make a diagnosis over the phone; it is really important that the doctor's evaluate your pet to be sure of the correct diagnosis and treatment plan.
