Designed to Work With Your Family Veterinarian
Urgent care should support—not replace—the relationship you have with your family veterinarian. When appropriate, Valiant provides records and diagnostic information so your pet’s ongoing care can continue with their regular veterinary team.
Veterinary professionals can learn more about working with us on our for veterinarians page.
When a 24-Hour Hospital Is the Better Setting
Some pets need overnight hospitalization, intensive monitoring, ICU-level care, or specialty treatment. When that happens, we'll help identify the appropriate next step, stabilize your pet when appropriate, and coordinate transfer to an emergency or specialty hospital.
