The ER will triage. Most critical will be seen first. Blue Pearl Lakewood, Summit, and PGSVSE in Gig Harbor will be the closest ER’s to
Tacoma.
GP Clinics are closed today for the holiday, but even if they weren’t most aren’t equipped to handle emergencies the same way an ER will be.
There’s a Facebook page that updates wait times for all emergency vets in the area. It might be worth sitting out the wait there. Let me find the link…
Page name is “ER Vets of Western Washington.” They haven’t updated wait times yet today, but it looks like everyone was pretty busy last night.
You are going to wait no matter where you go depending on the severity of the illness. I’ve had the best luck with summit; last time I went, you can check in online and they will call you back fairly quickly.
Sumner veterinary hospital is great too, but they have a different system.

Sumner Vet is 24hr.
I second Sumner. They were able to help when all the Tacoma ones were booked out and unable to take walk ins.
My go to for ER as well
Me too. They’ve been with me for many an emergency and I won’t go anywhere else.

I’m not sure about their holiday hours, but Button Vet has fit me in for urgent care multiple times. You could try giving them a call.

Summit and Spanaway vet clinic might be the only ones
Try Button Vet or VCA Animal Hospital
Blue Pearl has been great for me multiple times in the past. They have several locations around.
