Animal Emergency Clinic of the High Country

Animal Emergency Clinic of the High Country 24/7 Emergency Veterinary Clinic Serving the High Country of North Carolina
(220)

The Animal Emergency Clinic of the High Country, PLLC was established by Dr. David Linzey and his wife, Debi, in 2005. Our goal has remained the same: providing quality after-hours emergency veterinary care to the residents of the North Carolina High Country and surrounding areas. Until that time, local veterinarians participated in a rotational schedule where different doctors were on-call variou

s different nights and weekends. The opening of our practice provided a service to area pet owners not previously available: highly-trained and skilled veterinarians and technicians whose sole responsibility and focus is to provide emergency care for sick and injured pets until their regular veterinarian can take over care at the appropriate time.
