Emergency Veterinary Clinic of Tualatin

What Emergency Veterinary Clinic of Tualatin does

Emergency Veterinary Clinic of Tualatin (EVCOT) is a privately owned and privately operated emergency veterinary hospital headquartered in a single facility at 8250 SW Tonka St, Tualatin, Oregon. Founded in 1995, the clinic provides 24-hour, 7-day-a-week, 365-days-a-year emergency and critical care for companion animals, including emergency surgery, the highest level of pain management, toxin ingestion treatment, and stray-animal microchip scanning. EVCOT operates on a walk-in and referral basis with no appointment system; patients are triaged by severity, and the clinic accepts referrals from primary care veterinarians across Washington, Clackamas, Marion, and Multnomah counties in the Portland metro area.

The clinic transitioned from standard business hours to continuous 24/7 operation effective February 1, 2018, following a 2016 facility build-out. It is staffed by emergency veterinarians, certified veterinary technicians, and veterinary assistants. The technology stack is conventional for a veterinary practice: there is no disclosed proprietary platform, no mobile app, no public API, and no integrations. A supplementary online Pet Health Checker tool allows pet owners to self-assess symptoms before visiting the clinic, and the website hosts an SEO-indexed educational blog on pet safety, toxin awareness, and seasonal health topics.

The revenue model is fee-for-service, transaction-based emergency veterinary care with pricing not publicly disclosed. Payment is collected at time of service, and the clinic offers third-party patient financing through CareCredit and Cherry for qualifying pet owners. The company has no subsidiaries, no parent company, no institutional investors, and no publicly disclosed financial figures; it has remained a single-site independent operator since founding.
