Emergency Services

Emergency Phone Number: (401) 766-6578

Ocean State Equine Associates provides emergency vet services, including equine colic treatment, to all established clients 24-hours a day, 365 days a year. If your horse has an emergency when the office is closed, call the office number and our answering service will page the doctor on call.

Very occasionally a page is not received, there is no cell phone reception for a return call, or the doctor on call is occupied with another pressing case. We make every effort to answer our pages immediately. If you do not receive a call back within 20 minutes, please call again. Remember to stay off the phone when waiting for a call back from the veterinarian.

Please visit our emergencies page, to dictate whether or not your horse may need to be seen right away.
