Animal patients come to us for a variety of reasons. They might endure trauma, be involved in accidents or poisoning, suffer from seizures or sudden illness or be referred at the request of a local veterinary practice. Regardless of what brought the patient to our Deerfield animal emergency hospital, our mission is to provide the best emergency and critical care to pets at competitive prices. Additionally, our state-of-the-art services are designed to support veterinarians in emergencies during overnights, weekends and holidays. In order to bring the full scope of critical care to the community, we also continue to introduce technological advances in the field of veterinary medicine.
Our extensive range of emergency services is made possible because of our team of expert and compassionate professionals. Consisting of skilled veterinarians and board-certified internists, cardiologists and radiologists as well as specially trained nurses, our staff has more than 40 years of combined experience in emergency and critical care. We have proudly served the communities of Palm Beach and Broward County for over 17 years and are an AAHA (American animal hospital association) accredited Practice. Additionally, we are a member of the Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care Society (VECCS) and the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA).
When your ill or injured animal becomes one of our patients, you can expect the highest standard of thorough, compassionate critical care. Our updated facility features modern lab/diagnostic imaging, cardiology care, surgery, clinical treatment, trauma care and hospitalization. Furthermore, our neonatal unit offers treatment to medically compromised newborn animals. Additionally, we work closely with the patient’s primary veterinarian to ensure a seamless transfer of care upon discharge and to give specialist and diagnostic support upon request.

At AEUCC, it is our privilege to serve the Deerfield Beach, Boca Raton, Coral Springs, Margate, Parkland, Fort Lauderdale and Pompano areas. We are available 24/7 365 days a year to meet your pet’s emergency needs as well as acting as a resource for your regular veterinarian. Our mission is to give your animal companion the specialized intervention they need any time, day or night.
The medical interventions we furnish are meant to augment and supplement what your usual veterinarian offers. You can count on your regular animal doctor for such important services as prevention and wellness care; dental care; intervention for allergies; vaccinations; routine medical examinations, tests and the dispensing of medications; provision of health certificates, and referrals to specialists and emergency clinics when the situation requires. There are, however, times when this standard care is not sufficient to meet the urgent needs of your pet, and that is when AEUCC is here for you. If your animal has a severe injury, has experienced a seizure, poisoning or animal attack or is going through severe symptoms that require diagnosis outside of your own vet’s regular hours, don’t hesitate to call on our experienced, caring professionals to provide your beloved pet with the gold-standard diagnosis, state-of-the-art treatments and attention they deserve.
We are also available as an informational resource to other veterinary professionals in the area. If you are a South Florida veterinarian who is looking for information or support for a serious or complex case, our dedicated staff is more than happy to collaborate with you in order to furnish your patient with the highest level of diagnostic and interventional care.
Sudden serious illness or trauma is a worst-case, nightmare scenario for both you and your furry companion. Fortunately, you do not need to go through it alone. Keep our address and phone number handy, and know that if you and your pet need us at a critical time, our professional and compassionate staff are there to help. We are located at 103 N. Powerline Rd. Deerfield Beach, Fl 33442 – and we welcome your call at (954)428-9888 day or night.
