Urgent Care vs. Emergency Care
Understanding the Difference
At Veterinary Emergency Hospital of Arlington, we believe in providing clarity when it comes to your pet’s health. Distinguishing between “Urgent” and “Emergency” situations is crucial for making informed decisions and ensuring the well-being of your furry family members. We are proud to provide care for non-life-threatening conditions that aren’t serious enough for the emergency veterinarian. Here are some examples of the types of illnesses and injuries we treat.
Urgent Care Symptoms/Cases
At Veterinary Emergency Hospital of Arlington, we provide prompt care for issues that demand immediate attention, offering peace of mind to pet parents facing everyday concerns.
- Broken Toe Nail
- Coughing/Sneezing
- Lethargy
- Vomiting/Diarrhea
- Ocular/Nasal Discharge
- Euthanasia
Mild Emergency Symptoms/Cases
In situations requiring more intensive care, our team assesses stability and, if needed, may refer to our Midlothian location. Depending on case load, code level, and patient severity, we may stabilize and transfer to Midlothian for further evaluation and potential hospitalization.
- Allergic Reaction
- Ingested Foreign Object
- Toxin Exposure
- Broken Bones
- Snake Bite
- Major Wounds/Cuts
- Seizures/Tremors
Emergency Symptoms/Cases
Ideally, we recommend transfers to Veterinary Emergency Hospital of Midlothian for life-threatening emergencies. In instances where getting there quickly is challenging, or if another ER is more accessible, our Arlington urgent care can stabilize your pet, provide estimates for hospitalized care, and then facilitate a referral to VEHM for continued specialized care.
- Unresponsive
- Hit By A Car
- Respiratory Distress
- Pale Gums
- Trouble Urinating
- Abdominal Swelling
- Direct Refferal For Hospitalization
Rechecks & Referrals

- Ear infections
- Skin infections
- Allergies
- Check lump
- Small cuts and abrasions
- Parasites (fleas/ticks/mange/ringworm)
- Care of remains
Rechecking for cases/symptoms initially seen by the Veterinary Emergency of Midlothian (VEHM) as long as the patient’s condition is not critical. We recommend (rDVM) follow-ups but in some instances following back up at VEHM is better for the patient and the client.
- Blood work rechecks
- Bandage changes
- Suture/drain tube removal
- Cases not showing improvement
- Outpatient parvo
