[Newport News, VA], February 2025 — UrgentVet is proud to add Newport News as its newest location, bringing high-quality after-hours veterinary care to local and surrounding pet parents.
UrgentVet is conveniently located throughout the United States, with more than 90 locations in 24 states.
“Our goal is to make pet parents’ lives easier by providing state-of-the-art veterinary services in locations where they live, work, and spend time,” said Dr. Juan Davila, Regional Medical Director for UrgentVet. “When your pet is sick or injured, you don’t want to travel far to ensure they get the care they need and deserve.”
Modeled after human urgent care clinics, UrgentVet focuses on treating minor injuries and mild illnesses outside the typical operating hours of regular veterinary clinics. Newport News UrgentVet will be open evenings, weekends, and holidays—times when many veterinary clinics are closed.
UrgentVet clinics offer several benefits to pet owners, including:
- Convenience — Pet owners can select a preferred arrival time on UrgentVet’s website or simply walk in.
- Comfort — On arrival, pets and owners are escorted to a private, Fear-Free exam room.
- Care — Highly-trained veterinary teams thoroughly evaluate each pet and develop an appropriate treatment plan.
- Continuity — After a visit, the UrgentVet team updates the pet’s regular veterinarian to ensure appropriate follow-up care.
Newport News UrgentVet’s veterinary team is Fear Free™ certified, which means they implement protocols and practices designed to create a calming environment for pets and minimize vet-related stress and anxiety. Pets typically don’t enjoy diagnostics or treatments, particularly when they don’t feel well, but Fear Free techniques help nervous pets relax and make the process as stress-free as possible.
The Newport News UrgentVet clinic is also equipped with advanced diagnostic tools so testing can be performed onsite to ensure a speedy diagnosis.
Newport News is a thriving pet-centric area, and UrgentVet is excited to join the local community and offer pet parents an affordable, convenient option for veterinary care.
