How much does an emergency vet visit cost?

Is an animal hospital the same as an emergency vet?
Not quite. Animal hospitals are larger, usually staffed around the clock with specialists and full surgical facilities — they take both routine and urgent cases. An emergency vet can be a smaller practice with extended hours or a mobile vet. On EveryVet you can see both animal hospitals and vets with emergency appointments in Derby — use the Emergency filter to see only those taking urgent cases.
What do the different emergency vet opening statuses mean?
These are three levels of cover. Open means the clinic is open and taking urgent cases. Closed but staffed means the clinic is closed but has staff on site — only urgent cases are seen, no routine bookings. Phone only means no one is on site, but a phone is answered and a vet can be reached. Always call the clinic first.
