Urgent Pet Care (UrgentPetCareOmaha.com) is pleased to announce the opening of a second clinic in the Millard area! Urgent Pet Care West is located at 4257 S. 144th Street in the Southwestern Plaza next to Pinnacle Bank.

The new location offers another option, that for many, will be closer than Urgent Pet Care’s original location at 73rd and Giles in Papillion. Urgent Pet Care West will operate with the same mission of providing caring, compassionate, and affordable emergency services when your family veterinarian is closed.

Joining the Urgent Pet Care team at the new location are Drs. Scott Yonker and Emily Buhr, who both have over 25 years of combined small animal emergency and critical care experience. Dr. Yonker is a highly skilled surgeon and Dr. Buhr enjoys working with ultrasound and exotic pets.

Urgent Pet Care West is equipped to handle any medical or surgical need your pet may have, such as lacerations, limping, fractures, gastrointestinal issues, coughing, and many other issues. The clinic hours are Monday-Friday 5 p.m. – 1 a.m., Saturday 12 p.m. – 12 a.m., and Sunday or any major holidays from 10 a.m. – 10 p.m. Patients requiring overnight monitoring are attended by a licensed veterinary technician and / or veterinarian at all times. No appointment is needed, but it is helpful to call before coming in for a visit if possible.

For more information, please call the West location at (402) 991-9444 or the Papillion location at (402) 597-2911.
