VRCCO West Facility

Over in Bend, the Veterinary Referral Center of Central Oregon separates urgent care from full emergency medicine with a dedicated facility designed for same-day, non-critical cases. The urgent care center operates as a walk-in service, handling issues that need prompt attention but don’t require hospitalization or intensive care, helping bridge the gap between general practice and a 24/7 ER. Services focus on evaluating and treating conditions like wounds, limping, or illness that can be managed on an outpatient basis, with the ability to perform minor procedures and diagnostics on-site. The model is tightly integrated with a larger specialty and emergency system, allowing cases to be escalated seamlessly when more advanced or critical care is needed.
