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!!

LOVE VEG in Knoxville and especially a big THANKS to Katherine for helping me with my sweet Molly. In the middle of the night, our sweet kitty was hiding from us. When we finally found her at 4am, I knew something was wrong and was not sure where to take her. My friend told me about VEG, so 1st thing I took her in. Katherine was amazing and told me on the phone if it might be quicker to fill out paperwork online, if I was ok doing that. As soon as I got to the facility, I was so happy with the cleanliness and the friendlyness of everyone there. It was very quick to see Katherine and she was very caring with Molly and gentle. She directed me what to do next for Molly. She kept me calm and I knew my kitty was in good hands. THANK YOU Katherine for making our day so much better!

My dog PopTart got into something he shouldn't have at the park and it really scared me. I called first and the vet was very helpful and answered all my questions. When we arrived they came immediately to us and started evaluating him. I was so afraid so I kept asking the same questions over and over that I had already asked and they patiently answered them everytime. They also didn't try to run unnecessary test just so they could charge me. Poptart is doing better now and I am so thankful to everyone there! 100% recommend VEG ER! Thank you all very much!!!!

OMGGG This was my 2nd time here! Both times my Sophie Grace was taken care of with such gentleness and compassion! She was in pain due to a hematoma to the ear lobe! They took extraordinary care of her! She wanted to go around and say hello and kiss on everyone that worked there. We did keep it to a minimum, though. Lol The 1st time they drained the blood and wrapped her ear and put a head wrap/brace to minimize shaking her head. The 2nd time, they drained the blood Put a drain in and tacked with sutures all around her ear to prevent the blood refilling and to kind of send the blood to the drain. So it will drain out. I absolutely love!! the open concept and that I get to be right there with my girl as she is being treated and taken care of! Thank you so very much ladies for the love, comfort and care you showed my Sophie Grace! I was so at ease, confident and comfortable with the care you gave my baby! Dr. Bierly, Taylor Kaley and the others who assisted THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!

I want to sincerely thank Dr. Rusch and the entire team at VEG Flower Mound for saving my dog’s life. On Friday night, our dog needed emergency surgery for GDV (gastric dilatation-volvulus), and from the moment we arrived, everyone was compassionate, professional, and incredibly caring. Dr. Rusch and his team were absolutely amazing throughout the entire experience. My family and I are deeply grateful for everything you did for our dog and for the kindness and support you showed us during such a frightening time. We truly appreciate your dedication, expertise, and compassion. Thank you for giving our dog a second chance.

If you have to go to an ER we cannot recommend VEG enough. Dr. Rogers, Calysta, Ashley, Tiffany and Cassie all took such good care of our dog. We felt comfortable and informed through the whole process. It’s all open concept and they let you watch and be with your pet as much as possible. Our dog was hospitalized overnight. Two days later we had concerns and went back. They took great care again. Buddy sends all his thanks and love to the team! Remember, it is an ER. There are sometimes waits if there’s an animal that is more critical than yours. That’s why they triage. It is expensive. I feel like compared to previous animal ER experiences we had, I would pay the premium here to be able to see what is happening and be informed throughout. We would absolutely come back if needed.

What a phenomenal experience!!! If you could envision your dream veterinary center for pets in crisis, VEG ER for pets Chantilly is it!!! I seriously would give them double-stars were it possible. From point-of-entry through exit, competent, caring, kind, considerate, & a stunning, clean facility with water, coffee, soda, light snacks for anxious pet owners & periodic updates as merited. Staff camaraderie. Mind-blowing - how did you read pet owners’ minds? Absolute perfection. Keep up the incredible job!!!

VEG in Costa Mesa is such an exceptional pet hospital. Each time I've called to assess if we should bring our dog in, I spoke to the on-call doctor within 5 minutes. The staff is so great and kind and really treats your pet like family. My dog was hospitalized overnight and I could call at any time to check on him, received text messages with updates throughout the night, and when I came in the next day, a tech was sitting in the kennel with him because he was so anxious. Triage was super easy. The open concept of the hospital was really cool because you never had to leave your pet's side and can always see the techs and vet and ask questions. Dr. Nikki Smith was so amazing! She sat with us and explained everything that was happening, and she answered every single one of my questions. Adrianna was fantastic with Kaisen. When we went in for his recheck, he immediately recognized her and got so excited. We were able to be with him the whole time and never had to leave his side if we didn't want to. Very happy with the service. It is a bit pricey, but you receive exceptional care so it's a give and take.

My experience taking my 1 year old toy poodle Luxe was amazing. It was everything I expected and more. As soon as I stepped foot in the door I was met by one of the staff members and Dr. Pauline Bravo was right there to attend to my Luxe who was not feeling well. Veronica and the rest of the staff were very helpful, friendly, devoted and professional. I would recommend the VEG Emergency Hospital to everyone that needs help with their fur baby/babies. VEG staffs are truly team players. Thank you for taking care of my Luxe. Regards! Rossalyn🩷

What can I say? The veterinary staff at VEG are simply outstanding in every way. My mother brought our little dog, Gia, because she had several epileptic seizures one after another. From the moment my mom arrived, the entire staff immediately focused on Gia. They took her from my mother’s arms and rushed her inside so they could stabilize her properly. They kept her hospitalized overnight, and whenever we called, they always provided us with updates on Gia’s condition and progress. Honestly, if it hadn’t been for them, Gia might not be alive today. Excellent veterinary team! 💓 They are people who truly love animals and are dedicated to their work. Their compassion, professionalism, and commitment made all the difference for our family. We are forever grateful. 🐾💖

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!

I hope to never have another pet emergency again, but if I do, I’ll be going to Veg. They were so fast to respond, so supportive, and my dog absolutely loved the entire team. The team helped me get setup with CareCredit and made the entire terrifying experience so much easier to handle.

The experience we had with VEG was fantastic. When we arrived, we met with Dr. Butts to have Leia evaluated and come up with a plan of treatment for her. Following that, he consulted with Dr. Rodriguez for surgery. They treated Leia with the utmost care. The support staff was also fantastic in keeping her comfortable and taken care of. I appreciated the time everyone spent with us answering our questions and concerns.

I’m not a fan of large corporate vets, but let me tell you - the people who work in this place are phenomenal. I had to bring in my elderly dog in the middle of the night after she’d had either a stroke or a seizure (did not want to put her through testing to find out which since I knew what the outcome was going to be) and I was all alone because my husband was out of town for work. It was awful, but the care and kindness from this team was beyond exemplary. I knew I was going to have to say goodbye to her, but they did everything they could to make her comfortable. They let me sit and feed her chocolate kisses as long as I wanted and they kept the euthanasia room quiet and comfortable. They put my sweet girl on a cozy bed with her blanket and I truly believe she was peaceful and calm in her last moments. The vet who performed the service told me exactly what to expect during the process and it helped ease my worries. I truly cannot thank the staff at this place enough for helping me through such an awful night.

Excellent care, not just for my kitty Olive but also for me, as I was an emotional wreck. 🥰 Olive had a sudden and acute UTI, which required a midnight visit, and the place was PACKED. I was alarmed at how long we might have to wait, but we were out of there in two hours, and that's due to just how highly organized this place is. Olive had a full exam, many blood tests, medications on-site and to bring home, plus fluids (even a nail clipping!). My only beef was the staggering price tag, as it clearly takes advantage of these emergency situations. (It costs $310 just to walk in the door.) But like any cat owner, I would have paid double to get Olive treated immediately, and I'm grateful that VEG-- such a quality animal hospital-- is within walking distance from my house. Still, bills like these show that adopting an animal in 2026 has now become a luxury, and so fewer people will do it because of the costs. And that has such sad implications in so many ways. Nevertheless, VEG is a terrific and trustworthy animal hospital. Big praise goes to Dr. Tiffany Chan for her skill, thoroughness and compassion during such a stressful night for both Olive and myself. Thank you, Dr. Chan. ❤️

What a different experience! It was my first time in an open concept style hospital but it went great, better than waiting alone in a room not knowing what is happening or feeling forgotten. All the staff were tremendous from my initial phone call, to check in, to every Dr and tech who went by with treats, scruffs, and compliments for my dog. The Dr made sure to introduce himself very quickly upon my arrival and that he'd get to me after some of the other patients ahead of us. Everything felt safe, comfortable, and professional. Thank you!

I cannot say enough good things about this company. If you ever have a pet emergency, don't hesitate just go there. I called ahead and gave them a rundown, our dog was in shock, unknown abdominal problem, not poisoning. Immediately on a table with 4 techs and the Vet, IV fluids, ultrasound, withdrew fluid from his swollen belly to verify it was blood, simple blood test, BP, all with us by his side and constant communication. From meeting us at the door with a gurney to diagnosis was less than 10 minutes. Gave us estimates, choices, no pressure. Gave us a comfortable, private, quiet room to say goodbye. Stay overnight if you need to, take as long as you need, before euthanasia. Tons of treats provided, canned chicken, string cheese, hersey kisses, all the forbidden things. Over the top thorough, efficient, honest, and so compassionate. 🥺❤️‍🩹 (Sampson had a very sudden tumor on his spleen that ruptured and bled profusely. He'd had a recent history of a different cancer. We chose mercy for him over more protracted pain.) 🌈 Thank you to the crew at VEG ER Palm Desert for caring so much! Sincerely, Tori, Brian, and Sampson

The most compassionate and professional Emergency Vet I have ever encountered. Our Corgi Biscuit hurt his paw playing outside, and Dr. Smallcomb and her entire staff showed such care to get him taken care of. Even when putting him for sedation, they put him in a lovely room with the blinds drawn and gentle music playing to make him comfortable. Just absolutely extraordinary.. thank you so much to all of you!

I had to rush my cat, Mila, to the emergency vet this past Wednesday night and had to hospitalize her for the past few days. The care she received was amazing and everyone on staff at VEG Chelsea was absolutely fantastic. Bringing your pet to the emergency vet is obviously a very stressful experience but VEG Chelsea did so much to ease my stress and communicate with me as much as possible. I’m so happy my cat was so well cared for and treated so well during her stay (even if she was a little feisty). Thank you VEG Chelsea!

I cannot describe enough how amazing everything and everyone at this clinic were. My parrot, Baby, was having a respiratory emergency and I was recommended to bring her here by her vet. As soon as we walked in, we were very impressed by the open-concept style of the main area. It was very inviting, transparent, well-staffed, and clean. There were lots of snacks and refreshments for people during these difficult times. Baby was given a brand new water cup and we had a couch pulled out for us to observe her in her oxygen tank. Everyone there was attentive to all of our needs. Despite the ending not being what we had hoped for Baby, she was treated promptly and with lots of compassion by Dr. Chin and Anne. We got our answers right away and we were given as much time as we needed to process her passing. They went above and beyond in many ways to make me and my friend feel comfortable and it has really helped with the grieving process. I have and will always recommend this place for anyone's pet emergencies. Thank you, everyone! Special shoutout to Khushbu, Carlene, Mackenzie, Anne, and Dr. Chin for being the team to help my lovely Baby.

Everyone here was incredibly kind and compassionate. I brought in a tiny wild baby bunny that my cat had caught after being turned away by several other places. Even though it was wildlife and not an animal they would normally treat, the entire team was still willing to take a look, care for the bunny, and do whatever they could to help, without charging me anything. What touched me most was how much compassion everyone showed toward such a tiny life. The staff also helped reach out to wildlife rehabilitators to see if anyone could take the bunny. Unfortunately, because the bunny was so young and fragile, there wasn’t a rehab with the appropriate resources available to accept it. Even though there was only so much they could do, everyone genuinely tried. I’m especially thankful to Phoebe, but I truly appreciate every single person who helped us that day. After being turned away by so many other places, seeing an entire team willing to spend their time and effort helping a tiny wild animal meant so much to me. You can tell that the people here genuinely care about animals, no matter how small they are or whether they are someone’s pet. This experience left such a wonderful impression on me. If either of my cats ever needs emergency care, this will absolutely be one of the first places I consider. Thank you to everyone who helped and showed so much kindness to this little bunny. ❤️

From the moment we walked into VEG, everyone made an incredibly stressful situation feel a little less overwhelming. The entire team was kind, compassionate, and genuinely cared about both my dog, Ceaser, and me. A special thank you to Dr. Wong and Dr. Blutinger for taking such great care of Ceaser. They were thorough, patient, and took the time to explain everything, which gave me peace of mind. Nurse Shay was equally wonderful. I also want to recognize the front desk staff, who were welcoming and understanding from the moment we arrived. Every person we interacted with treated us with kindness. It's clear that VEG is a well run practice with a team that truly loves what they do. Everyone commented on what a sweetheart Ceaser is, and that meant so much to me. I left feeling that he was in the best possible hands and received the best care. I hope we don't need another emergency visit anytime soon, but if we do, I wouldn't hesitate to bring him back. Thank you all for the exceptional care you provided!

First time at VEG ER for an infection in my dog, Sandy's,ear. I was taken into the treatment area right away for Sandy's vitals to be taken. Dr. Teel arrived about 20 minutes later and quickly diagnosed the infection and recommended treatment and follow-on meds. Everyone from Receptionist, the tech who took Sandy's vitals and cleaned her ear, to Dr. Teel were caring, responsive, and knowledgeable. I'd definitely go back again if I need emergency care.

They got us into a room right away and within minutes a vet was checking on my boy. I was expecting to be here for hours just waiting to see a vet and within an hr we were in and out with antibiotics. I will definitely be coming back here in the future for any emergencies. The first hospital I attempted was a 4-6 hour wait- thank you to this place for not wasting my entire Sunday waiting in the ER.

We have used VEG in Texas and now in Las Vegas for our highly traumatized rescue Dolce. The staff is extremely efficient and caring. You are involved in every decision for your pet. Not only consenting to the treatment but how it is administered to be more successful and less invasive. Seeing this extremely supportive employee culture in 2 states is evidence of great management. I asked if staff like working at VEG and every response is genuine and absolute. This translates to a better customer experience. Special thanks to Angie, Nurse Louise, and Dr. Julie Jones.

I cannot say enough good things about this emergency vet. I visited twice while dealing with a lot with my dog, Griz, and everyone was incredibly sweet, kind, and helpful both times. I was impressed not only by how the staff spoke to owners and treated the animals, but also by how they treated one another. Whenever someone needed help with a procedure or simply needed another person to help hold a dog still, someone immediately stopped what they were doing to help. That level of teamwork says a lot about the environment they’ve created. They offered me a blanket, a charger, food, snacks, and a drink. I was also able to remain with Griz almost the entire time, which was insanely helpful because he is a stage-five clinger. The only time they took him away was for X-rays, and they even offered to let me watch him through the window. I chose not to because I knew he would freak out if he could see me standing there, but I really appreciated being given the option. They were thorough and, honestly, very reasonably priced for an emergency vet. I expected to walk out paying at least twice what I did. When I still had concerns the following day, I called and they told me to bring him back in. As soon as I walked in and gave them his name, the woman at the front desk lit up and said, “Oh, you called! I have all of your information right here.” She had us checked in within minutes and thanked me for sending in photos and a timeline of everything that had happened. One of the vet techs who had previously assisted with Griz’s surgery also works here. The second we checked in the first night, she came running out saying, “I know this dog!” and personally checked on him because she had been involved in his earlier care. Everyone genuinely made us feel cared for during a stressful and scary situation. This will absolutely be the emergency vet I use from now on.

I've been to VEG Princeton twice now for different emergencies, and they have always made my pet and me feel so comfortable. I can't say enough good things about the team! They are always so thorough with their treatment plans, and go above and beyond to ensure my pet's comfort and care. I really love that you can stay with your pet through most procedures (unless it requires full PPE or x-rays). They also have a coffee/snack section for the pet parents as you wait. Thank you so much, Dr. Levinson, Alex, Dr. Paranjpe, Dr. Bocchine, and the rest of the VEG team!!

Sushi, if given a chance, would share these same sentiments and highly recommend for VEG ER to any pet parent in stressful and uncertain times, and here's to all who visit in the future that you find just as much support, access, and resources VEG ER is providing. The big decision factor was the open floor plan, and being provided a room once the initial assessment was completed. Thank you again VEG ER.

My dog, Saki, was admitted to VEG with a life-threatening fever of 106°F and was hospitalized for two nights. As soon as we arrived, Dr. Beene immediately started treatment. During the ultrasound, I appreciated how she gave details of each organ in real time so I could understand what was going on. The next morning, Dr. Zaremba was incredibly thorough. She took the time to answer all of my questions while starting second line treatments and explaining next steps. I’m an anxious dog mom, but never felt like a burden to the staff. Everyone treated us with kindness and compassion. Sarah went above and beyond to be proactive and patient with a fearful dog, Ashley was so helpful and caring when I was exhausted without sleep, and I am so appreciative to Nicky for placing me & saki in a private room so we could stay together during the hospitalization. I wish I had a full list of everyone’s name, but anyone who helped us - whether it was checking a temp, changing an IV/med, or physically carrying my dog outside to use the bathroom when she was too weak to walk - your care made a difference. Saki is my soul dog - thank you to the VEG team for giving us more time together. 💜

I can’t say enough good things about the care Charlotte received at VEG. We brought our 13-year-old Boxer in for a urinary issue, and from the moment we arrived, we felt that she was in caring and compassionate hands. Dr. Scott Yorke was absolutely wonderful with her. With an older dog who has been through a lot, it was incredibly reassuring to have a veterinarian who was so kind, gentle, patient, and thorough. He took the time to carefully examine Charlotte, explain what was happening, and make sure she was comfortable throughout the process. The entire experience was handled with professionalism, compassion, and genuine care for Charlotte. When you have an older dog who means the world to you, that kindness makes such a difference. Thank you to Dr. Yorke and the entire VEG team for taking such wonderful care of our girl. We are truly grateful.

The whole staff went above and beyond to take care of her before, during and after surgery. We are forever grateful they see how special our bunny is to us and treated her as if she was their own. I would recommend this hospital to anyone! Thank you VEG!!

I don’t know how we can express the gratitude to this amazing group of professionals. We raced our puppy, Parker, to their facility from Arizona after being in a vehicle accident. We arrived around 10PM and we were met with an amazing staff that was eager to help her. They quickly helped us get her out of the truck and into a room. They were so attentive, knowledgeable, and informative every step of the way. I would say these nurses and doctors truly love their jobs. We were blown away by the absolute compassion and friendliness to not only Parker but to us as well. Dr. Bishop and the nurses were absolutely amazing! After a few hours we were all fixed up and Parker was able to go home. She’s on the mend thanks to VEG ER for Pets! Thank you! We sure wish VEG ER would build a facility in Bullhead City. I’m sure a huge number of pet owners would love to have access to such an incredible group of people to help their pets.

The experience we had with VEG was fantastic. When we arrived, we met with Dr. Butts to have Leia evaluated and come up with a plan of treatment for her. Following that, he consulted with Dr. Rodriguez for surgery. They treated Leia with the utmost care. The support staff was also fantastic in keeping her comfortable and taken care of. I appreciated the time everyone spent with us answering our questions and concerns.

I came in with my fur baby NOT knowing I was having an emergency. As soon as I took my kitty out of his carrier, he decided to have his last hoorah. He fought everyone with all his might because he was so scared, he couldn't breathe and then his heart stopped. He knew his life was about to end. He coded. His final moments were initially terrifying, but then I felt like he knew he had to cross that rainbow bridge....and finally gave in. I felt like this ER was full of the BEST staff that he could have in his final moments. They did ABSOLUTELY everything they possibly could to resuscitate him back. Unfortunately, he was too advanced in his heart mass to bring back to life. :( I cant find the words to describe the devastation of losing my sweet fur baby. But the staff there were so caring, it felt like I was with caring family members the whole time. They all gathered and acted calmly, quickly, and efficiently. Even after he passed, they took the time to make sure we were OK and explained every step and let us have time alone to grieve with our sweet baby. The vet and staff were SO empathetic and kind. My kitty wasn't even a patient at this facility! This was the FIRST time we came in there! I cannot express how thankful we were to walk into THAT specific ER at that exact time. They even did a few diagnostics to figure out what was the cause of his death, which they didn't have to do. He has been feeling sick for over a week. It felt like divine intervention, in a way. I highly, HIGHLY recommend this facility. I wish I can rate them 10/5 stars! Absolutely incredible service and care.

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!!
