FAYETTEVILLE, N.C., Feb. 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Vets Pets, a North Carolina cooperative network of veterinary hospitals, broke ground on Points East Veterinary Emergency Hospital, a sister facility to its emergency and specialty hospital in Wilson.

Located at 1611 Convoy Lane in Fayetteville, the 7,045-square-foot emergency and critical care facility will open in late summer of 2021. Vets Pets owns and operates Animal Urgent Care of Fayetteville, located at 3635 Sycamore Dairy Road, and will move its team and operations to the new facility. As part of the transition, the hospital will change its name to represent the progress and goals towards becoming an advanced emergency and critical care hospital further connected with its sister emergency and specialty hospital in Wilson, Points East Veterinary Specialty Hospital.

"This is an exciting step for our teams and a reflection of countless hours of work and dedication to veterinary emergency and critical care," said Steve Thomas, CEO of Vets Pets.
