For Current Clients Only*

For emergencies after-hours and on weekends, West Salem Veterinary Clinic has partnered with VetTriage to offer video telehealth services.

For a small fee, a licensed VetTriage veterinarian will assess your pet on a live video chat to determine if your pet requires immediate emergency care, or simple monitoring at home until our clinic opens. Life-threatening emergencies include things such as rat poisoning, hit by a car and chocolate ingestion.

*To be a current client, your pet must have received their annual wellness exam at the West Salem Veterinary Clinic within the last 13 months.

If your pet is experiencing an emergency outside our clinic’s normal office hours, we recommend connecting with our VetTriage service above or seeking medical attention immediately at one of the emergency vet hospitals listed below.
