VEG ER in WestChester did an outstanding job of taking care of our kitty’s urethral blockage. Unfortunately, he had to stay a few days for care but, the veterinarians and staff that took care of him communicated every step with us. Jackson appreciates all the love you showed him and the care you gave him! Thank you!

We had a wonderful experience with Dr. Rayanna Otterholt and the entire team. Our dog, Rigby, was seen and treated with both compassion and urgency. The front desk staff and nurses were all welcoming and helpful. It’s clear that the entire team genuinely cares about their patients and the families who love them. A nurse even brought a blanket for him to lay on while we waited. I felt confident that Rigby was in good hands. I have tremendous respect for what this office does and it can not be an easy job by any means. Thank you all for taking such good care of our boy!

My pittie injured one of his dew claws today, and these guys were so incredibly kind, attentive, patient, and helpful. Highly recommend if you have an emergency! I knew it would be a busy day since it’s a Sunday, but we were turned away from two different MedVets due to volume of higher need pets waiting to be seen. I called here and they triaged my pup the second we walked in the door. It was a really stressful day with a hell of a lot of blood, but I’m so appreciative of the staff. Thank you!!

The staff here are among the kindest, most attentive medical staff I’ve ever experienced, pet or human!! A special shoutout to Juno for being so hospitable as we stayed a while with our pup. I can’t recommend this place more for their financial transparency, empathy, and professionalism. Our pup is already SO improved thanks to their treatment!!

Absolutely amazing experience at VEG ER Viera! I truly cannot say enough good things about the staff at VEG ER Viera. We were seen by Dr Stanley, and cared for by Lanna, Brie, Taylor, Sam and Emma! We had to bring our golden in for an emergency, and from the moment we arrived, everyone was incredibly kind, compassionate, and caring. What really stood out to me was that they didn’t just take care of our dog—they took care of my daughter, too. While they were treating Buddy, they made sure she was comfortable by setting her up with a little pillow, a fuzzy blanket, and an iPad so she could watch a show. That small gesture meant so much to us during what was already a stressful situation. Dr Stanley thought we may need to sedate buddy because he was a little wild boy and just so happy and energetic. But the staff went above and beyond and treated my buddy without sedation and he did wonderful! Their effort was out of this world. I would absolutely return to VEG ER in an emergency and would recommend them to anyone who wants exceptional care for their pets. They went above and beyond, and we are so grateful for every person who cared for our Buddy and our family. ❤️🐾 Thank you, VEG ER Viera, truly!

I must say VEG is an amazing urgent care for animals. Every single person I had interactions with when i brought Oscar in today was truly amazing. They handled him with so much care(even though he is a feisty strong guy). They let me know everything they were doing and updating me on all his results. I truly can not thank everyone that helped me today. The staff is like one i've never seen before. Thank you everyone at VEG for your help and support with my guy.

My kitty Zedd was having trouble breathing and we were really worried about him and couldn’t get him in anywhere else so we decided to take him over to VEG to get him some help. The entire experience was absolutely amazing. They got him in as soon as we walked in the door and they got him on Oxygen ASAP and ran through their check up. The vets were incredibly transparent through the entire process and they did not go crazy charging extra money on anything. I really appreciate the extra special care they took and I was right by his side throughout the entire process. I’m so happy we decided to rush him here rather than taking him to the normal vet and potentially having to wait while his breathing got worse. We learned that he has asthma and they went through all the steps with me on how to take care of our baby and make sure he was back to feeling better and breathing easier. Not only could I see the quality care they were giving to my kitty but also all the other animals at the clinic. Highly recommend VEG to anyone else who needs emergency care for their pet and knowing good well that they will do a spectacular job! Thank you so much for making our boy feel more like himself again! :)

I can't say enough good things about VEG Ralph Avenue. We brought in our spicy orange tomcat, Sandy, at 4am with a blocked bladder, and the whole team was fantastic from the moment we walked in. They were calm, efficient and incredibly patient with Sandy, who is a difficult cat at the best of times (and 4am with a blocked bladder is not the best of times!). Everyone, from the vet to the nurse to the techs, was great with him and with us. They had everything on hand to treat him right away, which made a scary night so much less stressful. By the next day Sandy was stable and back home with all the meds he needs to stay well. We're so grateful to the whole team for taking such good care of our boy. Highly recommend!

I drove over an hour to receive care for my basset hounds digestive issue to prevent a blockage. I called before making the drive, I had the pleasure of speaking to Dr. Teal. Her expertise, professionalism, and clear plan gave me optimism. Her calm, soothing voice, was the cherry on top! Upon arrival, you’re greeted by a friendly receptionist, the facility is large and clean. Annett took great care of my boy. She was patient, gentle and confident in what she does. Dr. Carter and all staff don’t waste your time or money here. They know time is of the essence, I’m thankful I found this facility. Thank you VEG ER for everything!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot say enough about the amazing care Misu Misu received at VEG on the Upper East Side. From the moment we walked in, everyone treated us with kindness, compassion, patience, and genuine concern. A very special thank you to Dr. Larkin, Nurse Katherine, Assistant Dinesha, and Annie. You each made such a difficult and emotional situation feel a little easier. The way you cared for Misu Misu, explained everything to me, answered my questions, and showed so much compassion meant more than I can put into words. I also want to thank the entire VEG staff—from the front desk team to the nurses, assistants, doctors, and everyone working behind the scenes. Everyone we met made us feel supported and cared for. Misu Misu never felt like just another patient. It felt like everyone truly cared about her and about how worried I was. When your pet is sick or in an emergency, they are family, and trusting someone with them can be very emotional. I am so grateful that such a wonderful team surrounded Misu Misu. Thank you all for your patience, kindness, professionalism, and, most of all, for treating Misu Misu with so much love and care. I will never forget how supported you made us feel. Thank you to the entire team for everything you do!

Words cannot express how amazing this facility is. The reviews that mention the angels that are working here are so true. The gentleness, warmth and care that the staff provides is worth every penny (and we all know that pet ER visits can be pricey). For my visit, I was greeted by Allie at the door upon first step. No struggle between balancing the pet carrier while trying to open the door. Three wonderful ladies - Allie, Meredith and Dr. Gilbert urgently but calmly guided me and my fur baby to the table to discuss the trouble he was having. I was a wreck, as I was concerned for my baby. I had also had a nightmare of experiences before reaching this facility, which they let me ramble on and on about. All while paying attention to the most relevant parts and important tidbits AND while showing genuine empathy. I was most impressed with the way they gently handled by fur baby while also not giving in / folding from his mean disposition (he was an unhappy camper that day). They perservered and did what needed to be done to get him back in good health. I could go on and on and on about this place, but I know the other reviews will speak to anything I've missed. I've never been so comfortable spending a lump sum of money on someone else LOL. Allie, Meredith and Dr. Gilbert - THANK YOU so much for your kindness, your patience, your gentleness, your persistence and your hospitality. Boot is still bitter with you Meredith about the thermometer in his bum, but deep down I know he thanks you too :). Here is a pic of him resting when we got home that evening.

I don’t even know where to start…the staff, Samantha, Sam, Christina and Dr.Donohue, the absolute best…from the minute we walked in we were seen immediately and taken care of. The place is immaculate, you could live there! They are so compassionate, and patient, they took their time explaining everything to us…I HIGHLY recommend going here if you have an emergency, and very affordable too..

I can not recommend this ER enough. My dog started seizing at 3am, and i drove to two other hospitals that were supposed to be 24hr, both had signs up outside that they closed. VEG was the next closest place so I headed that way. From the second I was in the door the staff were amazing and they will be where I go for emergencies in the future. I am currently pregnant, had been up all night, and was VERY nauseous, and i probably looked it too. A very nice lady asked if I needed anything and brought me an entire snack cart to pick from. They also offered me new clothes after my dog had peed and vomited all over me. Canela did cross the rainbow bridge this morning, and everything about it went smoothly. I was walked through the procedure. All the staff were professional, caring, and overall amazing. Thank you for helping me and Canela

Our almost 12 year old yorkie had a severe anaphylactic reaction to a vaccine. My husband is a pediatric ICU physician, my daughter is a neonatal RN, and I’m a retired PICU RN. We also co-own a private practice, pediatric urgent care not far from Veg ER. As health care professionals and small business owners, we could not have been more pleased with the way our little Leia and our family were treated. Every member of your practice was so kind and caring- informing and involving us in every step of her care. The snack and beverage station, private family rooms with a pull out bed, pillows, sheets and blankets, were next level care. Thank you for making a very scary and stressful situation as comfortable as possible for all of us. We hope to never need an emergency pet ER again, but if we do, we know exactly where to go.

Wow, this is such a wonderful place to bring your pets. DR Rogers was so kind and did a great job helping my dog today. I was able to be with my dog through the entire treatment and they really made a lot of effort to make him as comfortable as possible. The entire staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and seemed to really care. I have never been to a hospital where you can hold your pet throughout the treatment. It also was very reasonably priced!

I brought my soul cat Buddha to Veg ER for Pets on the hardest time of my life. The staff explained everything gently and walked with me through the entire process. They helped me understand what was happening without rushing me or making me feel small. When it was time, they let me hold his paw and say goodbye. His passing was soft and peaceful, and I will never forget how kind they were to both of us. I'm so grateful.

Beyond blessed I took my baby girl Rossie to this vet! I honestly don’t know what would’ve happened with her if I would’ve not taken her on time! Rossie got there with her heart beat extremely low close to almost passing away! I was fortunate for the whole team to take care of my baby girl she was never left alone. They did everything to help her and we were lucky and blessed she made it through! My babies heart went from 40 to 120 🥺♥️🙏 although treatment is extremely expensive I am happy my baby survived and was Diagnosed with Addison disease. I will forever be thankful it’s like they brought my baby back to life.

I went there for the first time yesterday and they were fantastic. I went in with my ferret knowing he needed to be put down. He was very old. It’s always extremely hard for me to go through that process but these guys at VEG were fantastic. It started with the receptionist who was so kind and understanding. They had a very nice little quiet room where they do it. It was a nice change from the bright exam rooms. I’ve had 6 other ferrets put down and this was my best experience by far. Everyone was so kind and compassionate. It was well worth the drive. To the vet staff, thank you again for the amazing service. Your receptionist deserves a raise.

I cannot say enough nice things about this place and the people who work there. I brought in my dog, Todo, and every single person I came into contact with had excellent communication skills, empathy, and were just SO kind the entire time. The issue my dog had was enough of an emergency, but also not top priority in comparison to some other animals that were there. I knew this going in! That being said, plan to bring some headphones, or things to keep you busy in case you do have to wait a while! I did end up waiting quite some time, but they were extremely communicative with me the entire visit and I completely understood that they had to take care of the most sick patients first! I know that not all animals are easy to treat like my dog was, so huge shoutout to Dr Samantha Pool for your hard work while still maintaining professional and empathetic care. Your job cannot be easy! Special thank you to Grace, our nurse, and Morgan, who greeted us at the door and regularly checked in on us. Grace kept in touch with me while I briefly went home and she sent pictures of my dog before his procedure! She was the best!!! I highly recommend bringing your pets here should you ever need professional, empathetic, kind and communicative emergency care!

The staff was WONDERFUL. This was my first scare with my FIV+ cat and they were so kind, calm, and considerate with me and my partner. I’m so grateful. When I had an emotional moment they were very supportive. They explained everything with great detail and gave us a little gift on the way out! Truthfully, the process wasn’t quick (I went on a Saturday night), BUT it was faster than I expected •Fair warning: it is an open floor concept, so if you have allergies to other pets/animals take meds• I hope no one has to experience a crisis with their pet, but if you do, this is the perfect place for it. Thank you VEG team!!!

The staff was absolutely amazing 10/10! I brought my 1 year old cat Cassie in and I couldn’t have asked for a better team to look after her. They kept me informed the entire time, let me comfort and pet my baby while she had downtime, and answered every one of my questions in detail so we could make the decisions best for us. From the front desk to the nurses to the doctor, everyone there made us both feel as comfortable as we could in a scary situation. My cat had to have a surgery where they cut into her intestine (very scary) but not only did the doctor and team complete it with no complications, they were able to get the obstruction out with just one incision and she was able to go home the next afternoon! Cassie and I are both very grateful, thank you all!!❤️🐈‍⬛

We traveled from New York approximately 12 hours a day stayed overnight in a hotel with our six month old puppy. Unfortunately, playing around he ran into my fingernail and created an ulcer in his eye. We went here and they took us in immediately we were able to stay by his side. They treated him so greatly and gentle. Unfortunately, he had not only an ulcer in one eye, but both eyes so he has to wear a cone which he is not happy about but the treatment and the care was outstanding.

Our dog needed care for an infected, newly discovered wound late Saturday night. We were greeted by kind staff who directed us to an open bay with a comfortable place for me to sit and a dog bed for my pet. I wasn’t used to the open vet setting where we could hear most conversations with owners there and see most interactions. But it was comforting to know other worried pets & parents were treated so well. I was informed of everything about my dog’s condition and given time to ask questions. An estimate was texted to me. I didn’t have to leave my dog when he was taken to a procedure table in center of the facility and in view of all. He was given adequate sedation during the procedure and sent home with pain meds snd antibiotics. I regret I can’t recall names of the 2 kind, knowledgeable vets working with us. But the awesome staff were Gabbie and Nancy. I have a healing broken bone and Nancy even got my dog in the car for me. Hopefully we never need another emergency vet visit- but if we do, we will definitely come to VET.

Highly recommend Veg ER. Claire and Dr Toussaint were amazing throughout a very scary experience. We weren’t sure what was wrong with our dog, Ember, but they figured it out quickly and explained everything so clearly. We knew he was in the right place for his issue. After endoscopy, we were able to bring him home and surgery was avoided. The entire staff from start to finish was extremely compassionate. We are all so very thankful for Veg ER.

There are simply not enough words to express my gratitude to everyone at VEG Williamsburg. My beloved dog, Hank, suffered a life-threatening heat stroke and arrived critically ill. From the moment we walked through the doors, every single person we encountered treated him as if he were their own. The level of urgency, expertise, compassion, and communication was unlike anything we’ve ever experienced. The doctors and nurses worked tirelessly to stabilize him, explaining every test, every treatment, and every decision with incredible patience and kindness. Even during one of the most frightening moments of my life, I always felt informed, supported, and confident that Hank was receiving the very best care possible. What makes VEG so special isn’t just the outstanding emergency medicine—it’s the people. Every team member genuinely cared. They celebrated every small improvement with us, answered every question without hesitation, and treated us with empathy and respect. Their compassion was just as remarkable as their medical expertise. Because of their quick thinking, exceptional skill, and unwavering dedication, Hank recovered far better than I could have hoped. I will never forget what they did for him—or for us. Emergency medicine is one of the hardest jobs imaginable, yet this team performs it with grace, kindness, and extraordinary professionalism. VEG is a truly special place filled with truly special people. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving Hank a second chance. We are forever grateful.

I brought my dog King to VEG Dublin when it came time to make the hardest decision a pet owner faces. Because of his age, I had to say goodbye, and I can't say enough about how the team handled it. From the moment we walked in, the staff jumped in to help. They were calm, kind, and genuinely comforting during one of the most difficult days I've had. A few days later, I received a sympathy card signed by the team, each with a personal note about King. It meant more than I can put into words. That kind of care isn't required, and it says a lot about the people who work there. Thank you to Dr. Nickel, Anna, Kris, Hannah, Rosanna, MK, and everyone who cared for King and me that day. You made an impossible moment a little easier, and I'll always be grateful. -Tyler

Exceptional Care, Compassion, and Kindness — Thank You, VEG Arboretum! ❤️🐾 I cannot express enough gratitude for the extraordinary care and compassion we received at VEG Arboretum. I brought my little boy Cayenne in during the early morning hours because I was extremely concerned about his breathing. As any devoted pet parent knows, there is nothing more frightening than feeling that something may be wrong with your best friend. From the moment we arrived, Dr. Donaldson and the entire team were absolutely wonderful. The two young ladies and the gentleman who assisted with Cayenne’s care were incredibly kind, patient, attentive, and genuinely compassionate. Dr. Donaldson took the time to address my concerns, explain the recommended testing, and make sure Cayenne was comfortable throughout his visit. What meant so much to me was that I never once felt rushed, dismissed, or made to feel that my concerns were unnecessary. The veterinary technicians were equally exceptional. Their gentleness and affection toward Cayenne was amazing. At one point, the two young ladies were even trying to capture the perfect photograph of him because they thought he looked like a little teddy bear! It was such a great moment during an otherwise stressful morning, and one I will always remember. There is a tremendous difference between simply providing medical care and providing that care with genuine empathy, and compassion. This team demonstrated all of those qualities amazingly. Cayenne is doing wonderfully today, and I am so grateful for the peace of mind they gave me. To Dr. Donaldson and the three wonderful technicians who cared for my little boy, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your kindness, professionalism, and compassion meant more to me than words can adequately express. VEG Arboretum is incredibly fortunate to have such exceptional individuals representing them. I would wholeheartedly recommend this team to anyone who finds themselves needing emergency veterinary care for a beloved family member. With heartfelt gratitude, from Cayenne and his very grateful dad! ❤️🐾

I want to say thank you to the team that took me in and answered my questions, shown great compassion for the hardest choice I ever had to do and that was saying good bye to my baby boy Bentley. Their end of life program was as smooth as it could be and they helped me with my options with going forward in letting him go. They work with a great cremation company called paws to heaven and Keith was an amazing and kind person in understanding my grief as well.

I came in with our Chihuahua Dorothy around midnight. What I really loved was the greetings from everyone once you walk in the door they ask for your pets name and then announce your arrival to the staff, "Triage for Dorothy is here" and almost everyone says thank you Dorothy. Dr walker walks and talks her profession to the absolute best I've ever seen but again it's my first time vet experience. Maddie was extra patient with us in explaining every expectation from the prescription to the outcomes we could expect. This place is a blessing, thank you for what you do.

The best emergency care I've ever received. We arrived around 7am and had zero wait and were seen immediately. Dr. Jaclyn and the tech were extremely kind and knowledgeable. Having a senior dog is not for the faint of heart and they took all my concerns with seriousness and compassion. They text you the estimate for your care so you're able to view it and decide in private what works best for you. They also offer Affirm payment plans which was a huge relief. I left the clinic feeling confident in my dog's care and treatment plan and that he was already on the road to recovery. Huge thank you to everyone there. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone with any pet emergency. Thank you ❤️

It was a busy Holiday when I brought my pup there as she was breathing rapidly. She was checked out immediately & then the staff triaged based on need. I was grateful that my pup was not as sick as many others & I appreciated the staff focusing on the pets with the greatest needs. I watched the staff provide expert & compassionate care to every pet/family. I know the treatment plan they developed with me for my pup prevented more serious issues. Thank you for being there!!

Dr Tusa took time to calm us down and explain to us exactly what was happening medically and made it understandable to us!! Eternally grateful that he was there when we came in.

We will never go anywhere else for our pets. 💗 Our sweet Flemish Giant rabbit recently passed away, and having just moved to the area, we were navigating something we had never experienced before. VEG took absolutely incredible care of us from start to finish. Even during the very first phone call, everyone was so thoughtful, compassionate, and kind. When we brought our sweet boy in, we could genuinely feel how much every single person there cared about the animals they treat. They made an incredibly heartbreaking process as easy as possible, walking us through exactly what to expect and every step involved in arranging a private cremation for our boy. Something else that meant so much to us was that they offered more affordable options, giving families the ability to make the choices that feel right for them without adding an unnecessary financial burden during an already devastating time. That level of thoughtfulness truly speaks volumes about the kind of care they provide. But the kindness didn’t stop there. My mind was completely scrambled that day, and I accidentally gave them the wrong home address. They took the time to call me to make sure our sympathy card would actually make it to our home. 🥹 That small gesture meant more to me than they could ever know. This was the first time I had ever lost a pet of my own, and the heartbreak is something I wouldn’t wish on anyone. As devastating as the experience was, I will always be grateful that we chose VEG. They showed our sweet boy and our family so much compassion during one of the hardest days of our lives. I would recommend them to absolutely everyone. Thank you all, for taking such wonderful care of our boy and of us. 💗

VEG Marietta was my first experience at an animal ER. Every single person we came in contact with was exceptional. They showed kindness, patience, understanding and empathy towards me and my family. Our little kitten wasn’t strong enough to make it, and they made that process as painless as it could have possibly been. They even mailed us a handwritten sympathy card once we had gotten her remains. I am blown away by their level of care.

Dr. Fahey and the entire team here at VEG in Palo Alto were absolutely fantastic! My dog inhaled a foxtail and they immediately took action and resolved the issue! We are so grateful for their professionalism and care. Every person we interacted with on their large team showed us kindness in a stressful situation and helped answer all my questions. We were in and out in less than an hour and a half and the price was so reasonable for the level of care he received. Highly recommend this group.

Dr. Padriza and nurse Lisa were the best people to our sweet bulldog Rooney during his time of need. We brought him in with breathing issues and they took excellent care of him and advised us every step of the way what they were doing and the cost associated. Emergency care is expensive and they understand that and were sympathetic to the procedures Rooney needed. They were exactly what we needed after fighting these issues with Rooney for over two weeks and the condition only getting worse. I would recommend this location and staff for all your emergency needs and second opinions. Thank you for making our baby better and ultimately saving him.

I've had to take my babies here on multiple occasions and the staff has always been caring, attentive, and supportive of mine and my babies needs. The team communicates well and always had proper patient care, with the best treatments in mind. Forever thankful they were there for me during the difficult decision to allow my baby girl to cross the rainbow bridge. On behalf of my family and our little Dakota, thank you VEG Nanuet
