Emergency and urgent veterinary care

Crossroads Veterinary Hospital gives separate guidance for business-hours emergencies and after-hours emergency care.

During business hours

Call 254-542-8700 immediately. The hospital says calling first allows the team to recommend the best course of action for your pet.

After regular hours

The official page recommends Animal Emergency Center of Killeen at 2808 Illinois Ave, Killeen, TX 76543, phone 254-628-5017.

Emergency signs

Seizures, difficulty breathing, heavy bleeding, broken bones, paralysis, collapse, traumatic injury, heatstroke, severe allergic reaction, or labor complications should not wait.

Urgent but not always life-threatening

Vomiting, diarrhea, limping, eye issues, ear infections, itching, worms, fleas, ticks, runny nose, coughing, constipation, wounds, and appetite changes may still need prompt guidance.

Do not use slow contact methods for emergencies: Online booking, email, web forms, portal messages, and refill requests are not safe for a pet that is worsening quickly.

Appointments, online booking, changes, and cancellations

Use online booking for planned visits. Use the phone for urgent symptoms, emergencies, or changes to an existing appointment.

Choose online booking for routine care. Wellness visits, vaccine updates, routine exams, and planned follow-ups can usually start through the official appointment page.
Call instead for urgent symptoms. If your pet is vomiting repeatedly, limping badly, painful, lethargic, bleeding, coughing, not eating, or worsening quickly, call the hospital.
Call to change or cancel. The official contact page tells clients who need to change or cancel an appointment to call the hospital.
Bring records for new patients. Ask your previous vet to send vaccine history, current medications, lab results, imaging reports, surgery notes, and chronic-condition records.
Ask about fasting or drop-off rules. Surgery, dental care, sedation, imaging, and some bloodwork may require fasting or special medication instructions.
Confirm current hours before driving. Hours and holiday notices can change. Call before a Saturday visit, holiday week, urgent-care arrival, boarding drop-off, or grooming appointment.

Veterinary services at Crossroads Veterinary Hospital

The official services page organizes care into wellness, diagnostics, advanced care, surgery, urgent care, boarding, and grooming.

Service area What it helps with What to ask before booking
Wellness and prevention Routine exams, nose-to-tail wellness care, age-specific assessments, vaccines, parasite prevention, senior care, allergies, nutrition, baths, nail trims, and hospice/euthanasia support. Which vaccines are due, what prevention is recommended locally, and whether bloodwork or stool testing is needed.
Testing and diagnostics Bloodwork, diagnostic testing, radiology, test-result interpretation, illness evaluation, and baseline health checks. Which tests are recommended today, how long results take, and whether outside lab or imaging review is needed.
Advanced care Internal medicine, exotic pets, pocket pets, orthopedics, pain management, laser therapy, health certificates, OFA certification, and blood transfusions when appropriate. Whether the service is handled in-house or whether a referral to a specialist may be safer.
Surgical procedures Routine and advanced surgery, anesthesia, dental surgery, orthopedic surgery, emergency surgery, and post-operative care. What is included in the estimate, whether pre-anesthetic bloodwork is required, and what pickup/discharge instructions apply.
Urgent care Business-hours emergency evaluation, stabilization, hospitalization, urgent medical treatment, diagnostics, medications, X-rays, and referral coordination when needed. Should I come to Crossroads now, wait for an appointment, or go directly to an emergency animal hospital?
Boarding Pet boarding during travel or time away from home. Which vaccines, parasite prevention, medications, feeding instructions, and pickup/drop-off windows are required.
Grooming Bathing, trimming, styling, and grooming services for many pets. Whether your pet needs vaccine proof, sedation discussion, skin-condition review, or medical clearance before grooming.
Service availability note: Some services may depend on doctor schedule, equipment availability, pet species, patient stability, and whether a specialist referral is safer.

First visit and new patient preparation

New clients can save time by gathering records before the first appointment.

Bring identification and owner details

Bring the owner’s name, phone, email, address, emergency contact, and any co-owner or authorized pickup information.

Bring previous veterinary records

Ask your previous vet to send vaccine history, medications, lab results, imaging, surgery reports, allergy history, and chronic-condition notes.

Bring medication and diet information

List all prescriptions, supplements, flea/tick/heartworm prevention, food brand, feeding amount, allergies, and recent diet changes.

Bring behavior and handling notes

Tell the team if your pet is anxious, reactive, fearful, bite-risk, noise-sensitive, painful, contagious, or requires special handling.

New client script: “This is my pet’s first visit. What records should I send before arrival, and should I complete forms, use the portal, or bring vaccine history with me?”

Pet portal, PetPage app, reminders, appointments, and prescription refills

The official portal page says clients can access pet reminders, prescriptions, appointments, and more through the online portal and mobile app.

Portal name
Crossroads Veterinary Hospital uses the PetPage app and online portal for supported client accounts.
Best uses
View pet reminders, check upcoming procedures and services, manage appointments, and request prescription refills.

Emergency warning
Do not use the portal for urgent symptoms, emergencies, rapidly worsening illness, or same-day triage questions. Call the hospital.

Pet medical records, vaccine history, referrals, and refill documentation

Accurate pet records help the veterinary team avoid repeated tests and make safer medical decisions.

Request prior records early. Ask your previous veterinarian to send vaccine records, exam notes, lab results, imaging reports, surgery history, medication list, and chronic-disease notes.
Keep vaccine proof handy. Boarding, grooming, travel, apartments, pet day care, and emergency hospitals may require rabies and other vaccine documentation.
Use the portal for supported access. Use PetPage when available to view reminders and prescription information or request refills.
Call for urgent records transfers. If your pet is referred to an emergency or specialty hospital, ask how the record, lab results, and imaging should be sent.
Ask for itemized invoices for insurance. Pet insurance claims often need invoices, diagnosis details, and medical notes.
Records request script: “I need my pet’s vaccine history and medical records. Pet name is ____. Owner name is ____. Please send records to ____ for appointment or insurance use.”

Food, medicine, prescriptions, refills, and online ordering

The official website links online food and medication ordering, but prescription items may require veterinary approval.

Prescription medications

Refills may require a current exam, active veterinarian-client-patient relationship, updated weight, lab work, or doctor approval.

Prescription diets

Ask the doctor before switching diets for urinary, kidney, allergy, weight, diabetes, heart, skin, or gastrointestinal conditions.

Parasite prevention

Flea, tick, and heartworm prevention may require current weight and testing depending on the medication and pet history.

Urgent medicine needs

Do not wait for online approval if your pet is out of seizure medication, insulin, heart medication, pain medication, or another critical drug. Call.

Refill safety note: Some symptoms mean the medication should not simply be refilled. Call if your pet is vomiting, weak, not eating, having seizures, breathing abnormally, or reacting badly to a medication.

Boarding and grooming at Crossroads Veterinary Hospital

The official site says boarding and grooming are available. Confirm requirements before drop-off.

Service Prepare before arrival Call ahead if
Boarding Ask about required vaccines, parasite prevention, food, medication instructions, emergency contact, pickup/drop-off windows, and belongings allowed. Your pet needs injections, has seizures, takes multiple medications, is diabetic, is anxious, or has medical restrictions.
Grooming Ask about vaccine proof, coat condition, matting, skin problems, ear issues, nail trims, and pickup time. Your pet has skin infection, wounds, coughing, diarrhea, severe anxiety, aggression, or may need medical grooming discussion.
Bath or nail trim Confirm whether it is scheduled as grooming, technician care, wellness add-on, or medical service. Your pet is fearful, painful, has overgrown nails, or has a history of biting during handling.
Medical boarding concern Bring medication bottles, written dosing schedule, food instructions, and emergency authorization details. Your pet has a contagious disease, recent surgery, uncontrolled illness, or requires frequent monitoring.

Surgery, anesthesia, diagnostics, orthopedics, and advanced care

Crossroads Veterinary Hospital lists routine and advanced surgical procedures, diagnostics, advanced care, orthopedics, internal medicine, and referral coordination when needed.

Care type Ask before approval Why it matters
Dental procedure Does the estimate include anesthesia, monitoring, dental X-rays if used, extractions, medications, and recheck? Dental costs can change after the veterinarian sees disease below the gumline.
Routine surgery What fasting, medication, drop-off, pickup, pain-control, cone, and activity-restriction rules apply? Good preparation reduces anesthesia and recovery problems.
Orthopedic or advanced surgery Is this performed in-house or referred, and what imaging, bloodwork, hospitalization, and follow-up are included? Advanced cases may need extra diagnostics, specialist input, or referral.
Emergency surgery What must be stabilized first, and is 24-hour emergency referral needed? Unstable pets may require emergency stabilization or advanced monitoring.
Diagnostics Which tests are urgent, what results are same-day, and what should be sent to a specialist? Bloodwork, X-rays, and other tests can guide treatment and referral decisions.
Estimate script: “Please walk me through the written estimate, what is optional, what is required, what could change during the procedure, and what signs after discharge should make me call immediately.”

The official payment page says full payment is required at the time of service and lists accepted payment methods.

Payment topic Official guidance or practical meaning Best action
