UrgentVet

- 4084 Finn Wy #145, Lexington, KY 40517

For pet parents across Kentucky, the sudden onset of Pet Illnesses or Minor Injury often happens outside of standard business hours, leaving a stressful gap between when a primary veterinarian closes and when a full 24/7 Veterinary Emergency hospital is needed. UrgentVet in Lexington, KY, is purposefully designed to fill this critical need, serving as a dedicated Urgent Care Center for dogs and cats with non-life-threatening conditions.

Located on Finn Way, UrgentVet provides an affordable and accessible solution for After-Hours Pet Care. Their mission is to offer compassionate, high-quality Immediate Care for Illness And Injury without the long waits or prohibitive costs often associated with a traditional Emergency Veterinarian Service. The clinic operates with extended hours—evenings, weekends, and holidays—meaning pet parents don't have to wait until the next business day to seek treatment for issues like persistent Coughing And Sneezing, a sudden limp, or persistent vomiting/diarrhea.

The practice is deeply committed to pet comfort, utilizing Fear-Free Certified Veterinary Services to minimize anxiety during a stressful time. This approach, which focuses on low-stress handling and environment, is highly praised by clients. One customer, while describing a difficult, heartbreaking situation, highlighted that the staff "acted like people and treated us like we mattered," providing exceptional kindness and patience that "meant everything" in their last hours with their pet, Lloyd. Another client was grateful for the "gentle care and compassion" received for Oreo, noting that the quick understanding led to the pet feeling "much better now." UrgentVet is not a substitute for your regular veterinarian’s Preventive Care, nor is it equipped for severe, life-threatening Pet Emergencies like major trauma or severe seizures—those still need a 24/7 hospital—but for everything in between, UrgentVet is the trusted choice for Urgent Veterinary Care.

UrgentVet is strategically located in a high-convenience commercial area of Lexington, making it easily reachable for families throughout Fayette County and Central Kentucky when they need after-hours help. The clinic is situated with excellent attention to accessibility, ensuring a welcoming environment for all visitors.
