A new veterinary emergency clinic in Grand Junction offers around-the-clock care four days a week.

The owners of Monument View Veterinary Hospital joined with veterinarian Megan Riveros to open Veterinary Emergency at Monument View. 

Operating at the hospital’s location on Orchard Mesa, the clinic offers 24-hour emergency care to pet owners from 6 p.m. to 8 a.m. Friday through Monday. Veterinary Emergency at Monument View adds to the daily operations at the hospital to provide 24-hour care on weekends. 

Veterinarians Mark Ryan and Justin Seely joined with certified veterinarian technician Miranda Schroeder to open Monument View Veterinary Hospital. 

“Dr. Ryan and Dr. Seely see this new venture as the next step in providing the best care for our patients here in the Grand Valley,”  Schroeder said. “Dr. Riveros and I will lead our experienced team to provide the best quality after-hours care for pets and their owners.”

Emergency care hours will expand further as additional ER veterinarians are hired, Schroeder said.

Riveros brings to the operation experience in emergency and mobile veterinary services. She said there’s a need for more emergency pet care options in the Grand Valley. “The demand is high, and I wanted to be part of the solution. To be able to team up with a highly respected, noncorporate and locally owned clinic like Monument View Veterinary Hospital is exciting. Dr. Ryan and Dr. Seely are the best in the business, and I’m grateful to be a part of their new venture.”

Seely said expanding hospital hours to provide emergency services fits the vision he and his partners have for Monument View Veterinary Hospital. “From the day we opened our new clinic, our focus has been on creating a culture that puts pets and their families first,” he said. “Giving pets the best care possible means being available to them when they need us most.”

In addition to expanded emergency services, Monument View Veterinary Hospital also provides house calls and at-home euthanasia. 

Monument View Veterinary Hospital is located at 1673 U.S. Highway 50 in Grand Junction.
