UrgentVet is set to open a new clinic in west Plano on March 30, according to a press release from the company. The clinic will be located in Willow Bend Market at 5960 W. Parker Road, Ste. 224.
UrgentVet aims to bridge the gap between primary practices and emergency vets by providing pets “relief for mild illnesses or minor injuries” while remaining open for nights, weekends and holidays.
Founder Dr. Jim Dobies got the idea to start UrgentVet after 10 years of operating a general practice.
“I received a lot of feedback from my clients about the lack of after-hours veterinary care,” he said. “A light bulb went off for me because we have urgent care in human medicine; why don’t we have it in veterinary medicine?”
