Directory · A public resource by montreal.vet
Costs, no surprises
Every centre above takes emergencies 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, no appointment needed. Stay calm: you are in the right place.
An emergency exam costs more than a regular visit, and a fee may be required on admission. You are entitled to a written estimate before approving care: teams are used to it.
No 24/7 centre in your area?
Call your regular clinic first: its voicemail almost always names the emergency service to contact. Otherwise, head to the nearest centre above and call it on the way.
As of our last check, no 24/7 centre existed in the Eastern Townships, Mauricie, Saguenay, Gaspésie, Abitibi or Côte-Nord.
Not an emergency?
For a follow-up, a vaccine or a problem that can wait until tomorrow, a neighbourhood clinic is often simpler and less costly.
Find a clinic near you →What to do in the meantime?
Our emergency guide explains what to do in each situation: three-level triage, the most common poisons, first steps. During the day, our clinic triages, stabilizes and organizes the transfer.
