Always call 410-833-1717 as soon as an emergency arises, so that we can begin preparation before your pet arrives or so that you can be informed of our after-hour options. Dr. Lucas is usually either in our office or on call through his pager at 410-434-1717.  Please only use the pager for emergencies and only if your pet is our patient. Please check our hospital's answering machine for phone numbers of several 24 hour hospitals.
