Emergency Centres

The staff at the Middle Brighton Veterinary Centre are very proud to run the clinic to a very high standard. However we do not have the capacity to provide a 24 hour facility.

Following complicated surgery or an unstable illness such patients require continual veterinary supervision and care, referral to a local Emergency Centre is necessary.

Melbourne is fortunate to have several dedicated Emergency Centres that are able to deal with emergencies and critical care when our clinic may be closed and your pet requires urgent attention.

We strongly recommend that if your pet becomes ill during the day, an appointment is scheduled prior to the conclusion of evening consultations.
