In the event of an emergency, please call the surgery on 01449 722 198.
When the surgery is closed, an answering machine will give you the number of our Stowmarket Veterinary Centre, who provide the emergency care out of normal opening hours.
You may rest assured that your pet will always be seen by a member of our own veterinary team, who will have access to all of your pet’s previous medical history. The on-site accommodation at Stowmarket enables the emergency care team to keep a watchful eye on their in-patients, monitoring their comfort and condition as often as necessary throughout the night or day.
*Please note there are additional costs for Sunday clinics and out-of-hours emergency services.
