Why Points East Veterinary Specialty Hospital?

Established as a solo surgical service in 2015 and partnered with an emergency practice in 2019, Points East became Eastern North Carolina's first 24/7 emergency and specialty hospital.

Today, we proudly serve patients and their families from Raleigh to the Outer Banks, providing comprehensive emergency and specialty care throughout the region.

We recognize the importance of having the resources, support, and clinical autonomy necessary to provide exceptional patient care. You'll have the opportunity to contribute your knowledge, collaborate with colleagues, and continue growing your clinical skills within a supportive, multidisciplinary environment.
