Animal Hospital in Placentia: 24/7 Emergency & Specialty Care

Conveniently located at 1400 N Burton Pl, Anaheim, CA 92806, our hospital is easily accessible from Placentia—just a 7-minute drive (approximately 2.5 miles).

You can reach us quickly via CA-57 South or E Orangethorpe Ave, ensuring fast, direct access to care when your pet needs it most.

1. Immediate Triage and Stabilization (Speed)

When your pet arrives, our emergency team quickly checks for life-threatening problems such as breathing difficulty, shock, severe bleeding, collapse, or neurologic distress.

Stabilization starts right away to protect breathing, circulation, and organ function, even before a full diagnosis is confirmed.

2. Advanced On-Site Diagnostics (Accuracy)

Once stable, your pet undergoes targeted diagnostic testing to identify the cause and severity of the emergency.

This may include X-rays, ultrasound, CT, MRI, lab work, and continuous monitoring.

3. Emergency Interventions

Once the most urgent problems are identified, our team performs targeted emergency interventions to control life-threatening complications and prevent further deterioration.

These interventions may include oxygen therapy, wound care, fluid support, pain control, heatstroke management, toxin support, emergency surgery, or other urgent measures needed to keep your pet stable.

4. ICU Monitoring and Specialty Continuity of Care (Seamlessness)

Pets needing ongoing care can be monitored in our ICU or transitioned directly to the right specialty team within the same hospital.

This helps avoid delays, repeat transfers, and fragmented treatment. If your pet is experiencing a medical emergency, come in immediately. CASE Animal Hospital is open 24/7.

Veterinary surgery for emergency and specialty care treats critical conditions in dogs and cats using pre-operative imaging, including CT scans, fluoroscopy, and digital X-ray, with 24/7 post-operative ICU monitoring.

Our surgical team performs 5 common emergency and specialty procedures for dogs and cats, including:

• Emergency exploratory surgery for internal trauma

• Gastrointestinal foreign body removal

• Soft tissue tumor excision

• Splenectomy for splenic masses

• Orthopedic stabilization for fractures

Once our veterinary surgeons stabilize the immediate surgical condition, our internal medicine specialists evaluate post-operative recovery and investigate any underlying systemic disorders that may have contributed to the emergency.

Comprehensive veterinary internal medicine identifies and manages systemic diseases in dogs and cats through advanced diagnostic testing, such as blood panels, urinalysis, ultrasound, and laboratory analysis, to pinpoint the root cause of complex conditions that standard examinations cannot resolve.

Internists diagnose and monitor 5 systemic disorders frequently seen in referral and complex cases, such as:

• Diabetes and endocrine imbalances

• Chronic kidney disease

• Immune-mediated disorders

• Inflammatory bowel disease

• Chronic or recurrent infections

When systemic causes of neurological symptoms, such as seizures triggered by metabolic imbalances, have been thoroughly evaluated and excluded by our internists, pets with persistent neurological signs are referred to our veterinary neurology specialists for advanced nervous system assessment.

Veterinary neurology and neurosurgery assesses and treats disorders of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves in dogs and cats using advanced diagnostic imaging, including MRI and CT scans, with neurosurgical intervention for herniated discs and intracranial masses.

Neurologists address 6 primary neurological problems that present during specialty referral visits, including:

• Seizures and epilepsy

• Intervertebral disc disease (IVDD)

• Spinal cord injuries and paralysis

• Brain tumors and intracranial masses

• Vestibular disease

• Peripheral nerve disorders

Since sudden neurological episodes, such as collapse or fainting (syncope), may originate from cardiovascular failure rather than a primary neurological disorder, our neurologists collaborate directly with our veterinary cardiology specialists to confirm or eliminate cardiac involvement before finalizing a neurological diagnosis.

Veterinary cardiology and cardiovascular care detects and monitors heart-related conditions in dogs and cats through advanced cardiac diagnostics, including echocardiography, electrocardiography (ECG), and chest radiography, for pets presenting with exercise intolerance, coughing, breathing difficulty, or syncope.

Cardiologists evaluate and manage 4 cardiac diseases identified in emergency and acute presentations, such as:

• Congestive heart failure (CHF)

• Cardiac arrhythmias and conduction disorders

• Degenerative mitral valve disease

• Systemic hypertension

Because severe or uncontrolled hypertension triggers sudden vision loss through retinal detachment or intraocular hemorrhage, our cardiologists coordinate with our veterinary ophthalmology specialists to address these ocular complications promptly.

Veterinary ophthalmology and vision health examines and preserves eye function in dogs and cats using specialized ophthalmic diagnostics, including slit-lamp biomicroscopy, tonometry, and ocular ultrasound, with urgent assessment for acute presentations such as sudden eye pain, swelling, or vision changes within 24 to 48 hours of onset.

Ophthalmologists identify and treat 5 eye disorders seen in emergency and specialty referral cases, such as:

• Corneal ulcers and corneal perforations

• Glaucoma (elevated intraocular pressure)

• Cataracts and lens luxation

• Uveitis (intraocular inflammation)

• Retinal detachment

When persistent intraocular inflammation, unusual tissue growth, or progressive vision loss results from intraocular or periocular masses, our ophthalmologists refer directly to our veterinary oncology specialists to develop a targeted cancer treatment plan.

Veterinary oncology and cancer care for pets provides accurate cancer diagnosis, staging, and treatment for dogs and cats through histopathology, ultrasound-guided biopsy, and advanced imaging, with treatment options spanning surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and palliative care based on tumor type and patient health status.

Oncologists focus on 5 primary cancer types diagnosed in dogs and cats, such as:

• Lymphoma

• Mast cell tumors

• Osteosarcoma (bone cancer)

• Soft tissue sarcomas

• Hemangiosarcoma

Whether your dog or cat requires ongoing cancer management or faces an unexpected emergency at any hour, our integrated hospital provides 24/7 emergency and specialty care with advanced diagnostics, continuous ICU monitoring, and board-certified specialists under one roof.

Prompt veterinary care is essential to prevent further complications if your pet is experiencing any emergency symptoms.

At CASE Animal Hospital, we provide timely evaluation and treatment for both urgent and specialized medical needs.

Whether your pet requires emergency intervention, advanced cardiology care, or ongoing treatment, our veterinary team delivers coordinated solutions based on the severity and condition.
