An experience we all hate and don't wish on anyone is a hard thing to come back and leave a 5 star review on. A part of my heart was taken last night and it will definitely hurt for a long time. That said.. I have been to many veterinarian clinics and most have been great experiences (aside from Crosby vet.) I digress.. the staff here is absolutely above and beyond. They definitely care for the well being of any and all animals that enter those doors. A staff with very caring hearts, also human enough to be honest and not try to upsale while you are emotional. I would absolutely recommend these exceptional caregivers even outside of emergency hours.

The best quality healthcare I’ve ever seen, never experienced this level of expertise and compassion. Everyone at VEG is amazing and caring and took great care of my kitty and me at our lowest, they made a horrible situation better. Top notch medicine and there was no wait. Really impressed by their customer service and how great they are at their profession. Highly recommend this place when an emergency unexpectedly happens. My cat had obstruction and they were prompt in diagnosing and performing immediate life-saving emergency surgery. They allow you to be there the entire time and keep you updated. I was there for what seemed like days…I hadn’t slept in days and really unwell and unrested and I’m sorry for forgetting names but the wonderful people’s names I remember is Dr.Kiel who initially saw Leon, Dr.Sanderson who performed the surgery, I wish I remembered all the techs and nurses who were incredible likeJailyn, and Cristian the customer care coordinator.

The staff here are truly amazing! I just bought a puppy and he turned out to have bloat and they really supported us through this whole situation. They provided excellent care and handled my puppy with so much love. I would definitely recommend them!! I've never been to a pet ER, but I think what we paid was pretty good. Especially with the outstanding service we received. ☺️ Thank you so much VEG!
