Menton has a small but reliable network of veterinary clinics, plus access to the major referral hospitals of Nice (CHV Côte d'Azur) and Monaco (La Petite Clinique) within 30 minutes by car. For routine needs during opening hours, the town's two main clinics handle standard consultations and minor emergencies. For genuine after-hours emergencies, the nearest 24/7 hospital is the CHV Côte d'Azur in northern Nice. Always phone ahead, the clinic on duty rotates.
