History

Established in 2004 VETS® Veterinary Emergency Trauma Service.

In 2004, Dr Morris Samson and Dr Jonathan Mitelman, in response to a need for local emergency vet care, started to provide 24 hour, on call service from their hospital, Kingston Road Animal Hospital.

They recognized that the Beach and surrounding area had to travel 13km (20-30 mins) for after hours/emergency care at the next closest hospital. These could be potentially life saving minutes. Assessing the ever changing veterinary landscape, they expanded this to full 24/7, on site service in 2009.

VETS® runs in concert with Kingston Road Animal Hospital, providing full service 24/7 medical care and referral services. Emergency doctors treat and stabilize patients, and either return them to their referring veterinarian or hospitilize them for further treatment. Our doctors will follow up with both owners and their referring hospitals.
