Appointments for equine patients to be seen at the WSU Veterinary
Teaching Hospital may be made by referral or directly.
Referral Appointments: Your veterinarian calls the WSU
Veterinary Teaching Hospital and speaks directly with a clinician to
convey important information about your horse’s medical history and
arranges for an appointment with the appropriate service (Equine
Medicine, Equine Surgery, Equine Theriogenology). This is the
preferred type of appointment because the WSU clinicians are able to
obtain the most accurate medical history for your horse and expedite
appropriate scheduling and procedures.
Direct Appointments: You call the WSU Veterinary Teaching
Hospital directly to make an appointment without the involvement of
your regular veterinarian.
Both types of appointments may be made by calling the main phone
number of the Veterinary Teaching Hospital
(509-335-0711) or the Large Animal Appointment Desk
(509-335-0718).
Emergency Appointments: WSU
Veterinary Teaching Hospital offers 24 hour a day emergency care for
horses. You or your veterinarian should always call the hospital
prior to sending a horse for emergency services. An on-call
veterinarian will provide advice about the necessity of emergency
care and appropriate pre-transport care. You can reach the on-call
veterinarian by calling the main Veterinary Teaching Hospital
switchboard (509-335-0711).
