We had a stellar experience with VEG for a less than great situation involving our cat and yarn. Our cat consumed yarn and by the time we realized it, the yarn was too far into his system so VEG needed to perform emergency abdominal surgery. When we brought him late on a weeknight , the clinic was busy, but they made sure to check on us multiple times while we waited for our cat to get checked out. Everyone from the doctors to the vet techs were kind and professional. They were able to operate on him within a few hours and he stayed there for another day while recovering. We got updates the entire time as he went into surgery and came out. Then we were able to visit him post-op and bring him home shortly after. His recovery as easy and VEG checked in with us multiple times to make sure he was doing well. Everyone there seems to really care about the work they are doing. Their expertise and professionalism is impressive! It was a stressful situation but VEG took care of our boy and that gave us peace of mind! You can trust them with your emergency pet needs!

I brought in my girl Ramona when she decided that - after 3 years - she decided to chew on an albuterol sulfate rescue inhaler and got a dose of 20 or so sprays. I was referred by the front desk person of an urgent care vet who said I could either start there and move to emergency if she got worse or go straight to emergency. I decided to take their recommendation and head straight to VEG. I called on the way, and the front desk person there said they'd let everyone know we were on our way. I completed the check in on my phone which made things go very quickly. Everyone was amazing with my girl, so friendly, loving, and attentive. The entire staff made us feel safe and welcome, kept us in the loop the entire time, answered any questions, and were incredibly understanding. It was also amazing that we could stay with her as long as we wanted. We ended up leaving and coming back in the morning because she gets extremely worked up when we are there as she is trying to get us to take her home (as she does at any place that isn't home or outside). They worked with us on payment, and we used Care Credit for the bulk once we found she was going to need hospitalization. The price was not absurd and totally worth it for our sweet girl. I hope I never have to go back, but if I need an emergency veterinarian again, I will definitely come back here.

13/10. These women are better than nurses in human health care in my opinion. They all had to learn a different set of anatomy. Luckily upon arrival he was stable, alert and they still rushed over to make sure he was okay. We were able to get to the route of the problem and the techs/ dvm helped me in more ways I can ever repay them. A simple thank you will never be enough. We both appreciate them all at veg from the bottom of our hearts they are absolutely fantastic. Dr. Groves and her team were so incredibly supportive and helpful and made sure I understood everything before departure. Thank you for saving my best friend you guys do the lords work. I’m so grateful for Doctor Groves. I trust them with my cat any day.

We brought our dog Ollie in after he ingested a lethal amount of dark chocolate. We were seen right away. Everyone was extremely kind and compassionate towards Ollie and myself upon arrival. The vets were extremely communicative - I called to check in multiple times during his ~16 hour stay and was always given helpful updates and reassurances. They also consulted regularly with poison control to make sure our dog was getting the best possible care. When he was discharged by Dr. Price, he still had some abnormal heart rhythms and suggested we follow up with a cardiologist or come back in the next day. We went back the day for the follow up and it was clear they hadn’t asked us to come in for any other reason than genuine concern for our dog. We hope we don’t have to go back, but if we ever to have a pet emergency, we will definitely go to VEG again. Emergency vet services are very expensive, but they were transparent about the cost. Many many thanks to Dr Price, Dr Sotiropoulos and literally every nurse, vet tech and staff member we interacted with for their kindness, professionalism and genuine care for our beloved dog.

We had an incredible experience at VEG and I would absolutely bring any future pets here if ever needed. I completely understand why they have such high reviews. The open-concept layout made such a difference so that we could see what was happening and felt involved rather than shut out. They even offer rooms and beds if you plan to stay overnight or want a more home-like space to be with your pet which meant so much during such a difficult time. Every staff member we encountered was kind, compassionate, and incredibly supportive. When our sweet girl Tilley had to stay for several days, we always felt confident she was in good hands. They truly did everything possible to give her the best chance, and it meant so much to hear staff speak so lovingly about her. One team member even took a Polaroid photo of Tilley which we will treasure forever. We are deeply grateful for the care, empathy, and love shown to both our dog and our family.
