Emergency and 24-hour vets near Park City
13 emergency or 24-hour veterinary hospitals are mapped within about twenty-five miles of Park City. Call before you haul: not every emergency hospital takes horses, and the one that does will tell you whether to load the horse or wait for the vet to come. Keep the trailer hitched in colic season.
Park City has dry air and real winters: horses grow a good coat and cope with cold far better than with mud, but frozen ground and wind need shelter, and a clipped horse in work needs a blanket. Summer sun is strong at altitude; fly masks with UV protection earn their keep. 2 of these are marked open around the clock.
The 13 emergency and 24-hour veterinary hospitals, closest first
Before you go
- Call now for: colic that does not settle in 30 minutes, a horse that will not bear weight, a deep wound or one near a joint, choke lasting more than a few minutes, eye injuries, a foal that is not nursing, a laminitis stance.
- While you wait: walk a colicky horse only if it wants to move; no food; note gut sounds, temperature, gum colour and when it last passed manure.
- Expect an emergency farm call of $150–$300 before treatment; colic surgery at a hospital $5,000–$12,000, which is what major-medical insurance is for.
What works
- Know the hospital's hauling route and how long it takes before you need it.
- A trailer that loads, a hitch that fits and a truck with fuel are part of the first-aid kit.
- Banamine only on the vet's say-so, and never in the muscle.
- Keep a wound kit: clean wrap, non-stick pads, diluted chlorhexidine, a hoof boot.
- Write the vet's and the hospital's numbers on the barn wall.
