Burgos has strong veterinary cover, including several 24/7 emergency hospitals serving both city residents and pilgrims arriving on the Camino de Santiago. Hospital Veterinario Vistalegre (Evidensia group) and Clínica Veterinaria Valderrama both run round-the-clock emergency services with hospitalisation and surgery facilities. Centro Veterinario Los Delfines offers in-person 24 h emergency cover. Save at least one of these numbers before you arrive, especially if you are walking the Camino.
Vistalegre / Gamonal · Calle Vitoria 256, 09007 Burgos
A full reference hospital operated by the Evidensia group, open 24 hours every day of the year. The hospital offers surgery, advanced diagnostic imaging, internal medicine, neurology and hospitalisation. The most equipped emergency option in the city.
💡 Phone before arriving for an out-of-hours emergency; the team will prepare the case on the way.
Gamonal · Calle Valderrama 5, 09007 Burgos
A 24 hour veterinary hospital in the Gamonal district with intensive care, in-house laboratory and a team available round the clock for urgent attention. Strong reputation among local owners for fast triage and surgical capability.
💡 Useful second choice if Vistalegre is at capacity; both hospitals coordinate referrals for complex cases.
Centro · Calle Soria 17, 09003 Burgos
A long-established city-centre clinic that offers in-person 24 hour emergency cover with rotating shifts and specialised staff on call. Handy for visitors staying in the historic centre, since it is closer than the Gamonal hospitals.
💡 Best choice if you are based in the old town and want to walk in with a smaller dog instead of crossing the city.
