I cannot speak more highly of this facility and the entire staff of doctors, nurses, and assistants here. The facility is unique in that the pets can be with their owners at all times. There is no “let’s take them to the back and take a look”. The owner can be with their pet through testing (except x-ray room for obvious reasons) and examinations. I think this makes both the pet and the owner comfortable - the pet feels much less anxious with its owner by its side ; the owner feels more at ease because they see what is being done and are part of the process. This speaks to the palpable feeling that VEG prioritizes absolute transparency with pet owners. Despite the mainly open concept design of this facility, there are also several private rooms as should a pet/owner prefer or require privacy. Owners are able to stay overnight in these rooms with their pets should the owners elect to be present for the entire recovery process. As for the team that works at this location, I cannot speak more highly of them. Everyone is kind, caring, patient, and thorough. The doctors are easily accessible and always happy to answer any questions. Doctors Crossfield (Lead ER doctor) and Chennault saved my dog’s life. My dog needed emergency surgery due to bloat and they both operated on him during the middle of the night. Both doctors had experience in the particular surgery that my dog needed and felt comfortable performing it. This is exactly the kind of transparency and honesty that made me feel safe to trust them with my dog. I chose to stay a few nights after surgery as I believe that the first few days after major surgery are the most critical and precarious. The quality of aftercare that the doctors and staff provided could not be better. The communication amongst team members allowed for seamless transitions during shift changes. Everyone here is kind and competent at the very least. One final thing to note regarding location: I was hesitant at first because of the location (due to this area being a place that transients frequent), but felt like coming here was my only option due to my perceived sense of urgency of my pet’s condition. However, my concerns were alleviated when I saw that appropriate measures were taken to ensure that the facility was safe and secure. While the exterior door is unlocked, there is an interior door people must enter through to get inside the facility. This interior door is locked until a staff member unlocks it. Additionally, they have overnight security that patrols the exterior of the facility.

Every staff member and doctor who worked with us went above and beyond. Even as the number of patients coming in continued to increase quickly, they never allowed the stress or pressure to affect the level of care and compassion they showed. They remained calm, attentive, and genuinely caring toward every pet and family they were helping. That says so much about the kind of team they are, and it definitely did not go unnoticed.

Absolutely wonderful experience with Dr Martin and Alli and the rest of the team from the moment we walked in last night (and even before, since I called on the way)! The facility is clean and welcoming, staff were all attentive and supportive, everyone made us feel calm and cared for in an emergent situation and we got the best possible care! Highly recommend for any emergent needs. Hope we won’t need to return, however, know that this will be my first call in the case of another emergency in the future. Thanks so much to the team who helped care for my pup!

I am so grateful for Dr Volkman and her associates at Veg ER. Our 12 yr old dog "Bug" was having difficulty breathing and I can't say enough about how caring and intelligent the staff was. When we first arrived he could only walk a short distance so they made him comfortable right where he was so he could rest and proceeded to treat him there. I've never seen our dog so at ease with strangers, I really believe he sensed the genuine caring they surrounded him with. I was amazed. Their home care instructions were detailed and easy to understand. One of the girls there even decorated his folder for his paper work with his name and some art... a small detail but little things like that really mean a lot. I can tell you these people genuinely care about the animals they treat. I highly recommend and won't hesitate to return when and if the need ever arises again.

I can't say enough great things about this place! From the care of my pet and the care of myself, this place goes above and beyond. I joke with my friends and family that I didn't get this care when my mom was in the hospital! They saved Wrigleys life and made sure I understood every step and procedure. I was able to come and go as I pleased and felt good knowing he was in good hands. Between the hearts he stole and the hand holding he did, along with the size of tumor removed from his belly, I'm sure he won't be forgotten by the incredible vets and techs that cared for him.

Last week, after getting home from an evening event, we noticed our 17-year-old Chiweenie acting weird. To save the gore, it was apparent in the next couple of hours that he was declining very fast. Knowing he would not make it through the night and fearing him being in pain, we looked for an open overnight vet, VEG came up and had a really good reputation, and I’ve heard of them before from other friends and colleagues. Not too far away (Pflugerville) so we drove over to the Arboretum at 1 AM. My wife was afraid of saying goodbye to our old man in a sterile room with a metal table… We walked in and it’s a very different experience! Everything is right in front of you. They knew we were coming in, ushered us into a quiet room with two chairs and a shag carpet and dim lights. It was extremely comfortable and inviting and calm. Caitlin was our technician that evening, she was an absolute rockstar! Very sympathetic and professional. Even though we’ve experienced a loss with a close friend’s dog, they still made sure we understood everything that was coming ahead. They gave us plenty of time to say goodbye and we’re very supportive during the process. When we were ready, the doctor came in and visited with us and put our old man to rest. He lived a good, long life, outside of expiring very quickly that evening, this is the best possible way for him to have gone out. VEG provided and unparalleled experience in our time of loss and grief. They deserve 11 stars!

I have to admit, Bella can be a little feisty, so I was concerned she might try to bite the staff during her visit. However, Corrine Ross was incredibly patient and took the time to make Bella feel comfortable. To my surprise, Bella did very well during her examination. She did need some medication to help her relax for the X-ray, but overall everything went smoothly. Bella is doing well with the medication they prescribed, and we’re very happy with her progress. I also want to thank the entire staff at VEG Commack. Everyone is was amazing and showed genuine care and compassion throughout my visit. Thank you again for taking sick wonderful care of Bella-I truly appreciate it! ❤️

We were transferred to VEG because our initial emergency room was on diversion. Not knowing what to expect, I was highly satisfied with every aspect of VEG. When we arrived they were expecting us and flew into admission and treatment. The quote I was given was 4,500 less than others I was given at the initial emergency room. I was shocked when they asked me and my son if we wanted a bed to stay the night with my dog. Usually Vet Emergency clinics take your dog and you don't see them until you pay and are discharged. The staff ran through my pups treatment plan and offered us snacks. The nurse talked with my son and showed him the other animals. When we decided to go home to sleep, they promised texts and phone calls. The next day I was welcomed in to sit with my baby. They took extra precaution not to discharge him until they felt he was ready. They did not rush his discharge to get rid of him... actually I'm almost certain they would have kept him another night because he was so loved. VEG changed my perspective of what Vet Emergency Hospitals could and should be. I will be bypassing my usual Emergency Clinic and coming straight to VEG next time. I can't say enough about the staff...especially the night staff!!!! e I cannot for the life of me remember the names of the staff. The first 1 was the night nurse who was in charge of the admitted animals... glasses, blond hair..super sweet. The second was the day vet tech...guy, so kind and I watched him kiss all of the babies like they were his own...smells like vanilla if that helps narrow it down. Also the doctors both night and day were pleasant and thorough with explaining his condition and plan for treatment!

The doctors and nurses at VEG were absolutely lovely. They were gentle with my sweet boy Rambo, compassionate when we had to decide what to do, and gave me as much time as I needed after having to put my baby to sleep. I got several copies of nose and paw prints as well as a card days later in the mail expressing their sympathy. The only con was having to wait a while, but in my scenario waiting was best. It gave me sweet minutes with my cat that I'm very thankful for.

They are amazing. Make her feel so welcome to provide blankets and towels and food and IVs that can be moved so she can sit by the window and in the private room we can visit her 24 seven the staff and the doctors are so welcoming and kind and accommodate for any needs, and they make her feel safe and provide private rooms with multiple things that you can use to feed help sleep and pee in.

My 6-week-old kitten Cheeto was brought in early this morning (Memorial Day at 2am) due to serious internal complications. From the moment we walked through the door, my boyfriend and I were met with the warmest, kindest welcome during what was the hardest night of our lives. I was so overwhelmed that I could barely speak, but the entire team was incredible with both of us. They immediately sprang into action with compassionate triage and care for Cheeto. They took the time to clearly explain everything to my boyfriend, patiently answered all of his questions, and made sure we both understood what was happening. Despite the holiday and the late hour, they treated Cheeto like he was their own and did everything possible to help him and ease his suffering. Dr. Posada was outstanding — his medical skill and genuine empathy made all the difference. I also want to give a special thank you to the woman with the pink hair, who never took her hands or eyes off Cheeto for hours. Her gentle presence meant more than she will ever know. I’ve never lost a pet before, and this was a devastating experience. Even though the outcome wasn’t what we had hoped for, I am so grateful to the entire VEG ER staff. You helped us feel like we never gave up on our little guy and gave us the peace of knowing he was surrounded by people who truly cared. I cannot recommend this ER highly enough. Thank you for supporting both of us with such compassion and professionalism.

I just visited the new vet emergency clinic in Manhattan Beach. My 12 years old puppy had the most beautiful experience he ever had at a vet office. Doctor Townsley was awesome and his medical team ; Megumi and Jonathan were just as wonderful , including Emily who helped me and greeted me at the front desk! I felt so happy and relieved to have met such a competent and young team who were all able to make this visit a fun one! Also the environment is so spacious and pet friendly! I am including a picture of my Ruggles who looks obviously very happy to stop by here ! ;)) Thank you so much for all you do and thank you for rendering this experience a happy one Cristina V.

I took my cat Koda to VEG ER for Pets last night, and I was so happy with the care we received. Dr. Caldwell, Taylor, and the entire staff were incredibly caring, attentive, and compassionate. They took great care of Koda and made sure his needs were addressed while keeping me informed throughout the visit. I really appreciated how kind and attentive everyone was. Thank you for taking such great care of my sweet Koda! Highly recommend!

We had a great experience at VEG. I really appreciated being able to stay with Cece throughout the entire visit, which made a stressful situation so much easier. The technician who helped us from my initial phone call through check-in and taking Cece’s vitals was also incredibly kind and compassionate. Dr. Anna Eickhoff was sweet, knowledgeable, and took the time to explain everything clearly before I even had to ask questions. She seemed very experienced, and I felt completely confident that Cece was in great hands. I honestly wish Dr. Anna Eickhoff could be Cece’s primary vet! Hopefully we won’t need another emergency visit, but if we ever do, I’d be happy knowing Cece is in such good hands! Thank you both for taking such wonderful care of Cece.

This place ROCKS!!! I brought my cat 5050 in for a foxtail in her eye and they did the deed. Reasonable fees. I’ve been doing TNR ferals for 30-ish years. I have to say this place is the nicest I’ve ever been to. And a week later her follow up showed she is 100% good to good. Rocket crew at VEG. I’m so glad I’m a VEGetarian~ 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Very caring, respectful, and understanding. We had to put our 17 year old furbaby Spike to sleep, Dr. Jen explained the process and was there every step of the way. Dr. Jen and her staff not only cared for Spike's easy transition, but they also made sure that us- the humans- were ok. They let us stay as long as we needed, we never felt rushed. Thank you soo much Dr. Jen, Yuliza, and the entire staff.

Amazing doctors and staff! We can’t thank Dr Godfrey and Dr Small enough. The nurses were also amazing, thank you Angelique, Hope and Matthew and Emily for taking such good and compassionate care of our baby. We brought our dog in since she hadn’t been eating, consequently she had a large tumor on her liver and pancreatitis (on top of her previous diagnosis of IBD). The staff showed great compassion and attention in treating our baby, stabilizing her vitals and making her feel better in order to go home. Again, we can’t thank these folks enough, amazing care form amazing staff! Thank you all for helping our dog and showing such great compassion and empathy! Highly recommend this facility!

They make running a chaotic and unpredictable ER look easy and seamless. I’m so thankful I found VEG Louisville, thank you thank you thank you to all of the staff for your work!!

Veg ER was the best place my dog could have been brought to. My poor baby got sick while I was out of town. I had to drive 9 hours to see him. Veg kept him comfortable until I could arrive and make a decision on my Bentley. When I got there I was amazed on the set up they had for me. I was able to lay in a room comfortably to process and spend my last moments with my baby. When I have had to go through losing my childhood dogs we never got such a comfortable place to be there for them. I’m truly blessed to have had my special boy brought to such a wonderful place in his last moment. With deepest gratitude Thank you Veg.

This was my second visit to VEG with my senior German Shepherd, Juno, and once again they exceeded every expectation. From the moment we walked in, we were treated with kindness, compassion, and genuine care. What stands out most is that they never make you feel like just another appointment. They take the time to listen, explain everything thoroughly, and make sure both you and your pet feel cared for. You can tell this isn’t just a job to them. Every doctor, technician, and team member shows up with so much compassion and passion for what they do. As a pet owner, especially when you’re worried, that level of empathy means everything. I’m so grateful to have VEG nearby and wouldn’t hesitate to trust them with Juno again. Thank you for taking such incredible care of her.

Our dog ate a whole corn on the cob so we took her in around 8:30pm. Everybody from the minute we got into the building were so genuine and caring. Kenny and Dr. Kelly made sure we knew what was going on, and explained every step while not being dissmive of any of our concerns. The staff were able to get our dog into emergency surgery that night! The receptionist even set up a futon with sheets, blankets and pillows for us to make sure we could rest while we waited for her surgery to be completed. If we ever have another emergency we will only go here!

I can’t say enough about how great the staff and doctors are. They really make sure you’re doing okay and really love your animal like it’s their own. VEG is hands down the best emergency hospital!

First time here and we will 100% be coming back for any future emergencies with our dog (hopefully not too many times lol). Our girl was taken care of from the second we walked in to the minute she left. We were able to be there with her the whole time, and all the staff were such a joy. Grateful it wasn’t life threatening—even then they still treated her with priority and made us feel heard. Thank you to the team! She says thank you as she’s currently on her pain meds lol

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🩷

My 6 year old cat had a gastro emergency recently, and I took her here for treatment, electing to have her hospitalized. All of the staff were phenomenal, and I couldn't believe that we didn't have to wait long, were provided a private room, and that I was able to stay with my nervous kitty during testing to provide some familiarity and comfort throughout the experience. All of the tests they recommended and questions they asked were instrumental to getting a good understanding of what was going on, and she was able to get on a prescription diet to help her feel better and heal. It's been a week since her hospitalization and she has gone from not eating or moving to eating voraciously and running around like a kitten. So grateful for the awesome folks at this clinic who genuinely cared about the welfare of my cat.

I am a retired RVT and was blown away when I first walked in. The open concept, clients sitting there watching everything going on....and it only got better from there! I love how professional everyone was and how the doctors communicated with eachother regarding my dog. We saw 3 Vets in total, Dr. Neal did the splenectomy, Dr Kat was there when we came to visit and answered all of my questions, viewed prior xrays I had on my laptop and concurred with my assessment, we also saw another Dr (whose name I can't remember, but she got injured and had to leave) when we first got there and made us feel comfortable right away. All of the techs/assistants were just amazing and we were even offered to spend the night if we wanted to. Absolutely incredible! I have already been recommending VEG with every post I have made on the socials. I wish I was still able to work because VEG is definitely a place I would want to be at! Thank you so much to everyone we encountered at the Henderson location, we hope we don't ever have another emergency, but if we do, we know where we are headed!

Very well ran veterinary office! I took my mini schnauzer Kobe this morning when he was in clear distress and puking (His vet’s office was not open yet). He got in right away and was assessed by Dr. Groves. In ten minutes, she had a treatment plan of her suggestions. Yes, they are a little pricey, but they treat all the animals so well and with so much compassion. Shoutout to Dr. Groves, Kristen, and the other tech working with Kristen. They listened to me, was gentle with Kobe, and got him feeling much better. Cannot recommend VEG Shrewsbury enough for any animal emergencies, THANK YOU!

No one wants to take their fur baby to the ER, but if you ever have to, I highly recommend VEG. All of the staff were amazing, especially Ant who assisted us and the doctor! Dr. Dietz was our attending doctor and she was highly knowledgeable, thorough and answered all of our questions with patience. The entire staff were very kind and caring throughout the entire process. I had a follow up question and called a couple days later. The doctor answering was just as nice and helpful as everyone at our original visit. Thank you to VEG for taking such good care of our kitty and providing the best experience!

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.

OUR DOG ALMOST DIED 😭 We came home to find our 12 year old Pit-bull with a turned stomach. We rushed him to VEG ER and they were so quick to act. Doctor Gaby Carl was incredible. She was incredibly knowledgeable and gave us all the facts but was also empathetic and kind. Doctor Gaby saved our dog. The surgery went well and we were able to take him home the following day. We are so grateful for VEG ER and their staff. We thought we were going to lose our family dog. Everyone was so accommodating and kept checking on us to see if we needed anything. Also love how calm and joyful the staff was even in the midst of a crazy moment. It made my family feel at peace. I couldn’t recommend them more.

I don't usually write reviews, but this place and staff absolutely deserve a five star review. I've been to emergency vets before, but I'd never experienced an open-concept emergency hospital like this, and it completely changed my expectations. We rushed our pit mix, Lockie, in because we thought she had been bitten by another dog. She was bleeding so badly and we couldn't control the bleeding. It turned out to be a mass that had been bitten, nicked, or somehow erupted, and needed to be removed and cauterized. From the minute we walked in, staff immediately took action. Everyone was kind, compassionate, and constantly checking on both Lockie and us. They explained everything as they went, answered every question, and made sure we were comfortable through the whole process. What really makes this place different is the open concept. You don't have to hand your pet over and sit in a waiting room wondering what's happening behind closed doors. We were able to stay with Lockie, watch her being cared for, and even watch the surgical procedure under anesthesia. That level of transparency gave us so much peace of mind. Even when other emergencies came in, you could see the team working together, which actually made us feel even more confident in the care they were providing. The pricing was in line and fair for what I'd expect for an emergency vet, and they were very upfront about everything. They went over all of the recommended treatments and allowed us the option to decline items that we felt weren't absolutely necessary, as long as it was medically appropriate. There was never any pressure, just honest communication and a genuine concern for doing what was best for Lockie. As someone who's pretty picky and pays attention to quality of care as part of my job, I was honestly impressed. This unfortunate emergency experience felt different, in the best way. The transparency, communication, compassion, and quality of care were outstanding. I hope we never need an emergency vet again, but if we do, this is where we'll be returning to. Thank you for taking such great care of Lockie, and her parents!

During a stressful and unexpected medical emergency with our beloved dog, Veterinary Emergency Group (VEG) proved to be an invaluable resource. From the moment we walked through their doors, we were met with compassion and efficiency. Jamie at the front desk was immediately reassuring and helpful. The entire team demonstrated a deep respect for both us and our anxious pet. The medical team, including the knowledgeable Dr. Madison Bober and the attentive nurse Sue, took the time to thoroughly explain the nature of our dog's condition. Dr. Bober clearly outlined the proposed medical procedure, answering all of our questions with patience and expertise, while Nurse Sue provided compassionate support. We also greatly appreciated the assistance of CeC Imani, who was so helpful during the process. And we were thankful for the upfront and transparent pricing, which allowed us to focus on our dog's well-being without the added worry of unexpected costs. Furthermore, the detailed explanation of the aftercare protocol was incredibly helpful. We left feeling well-informed and confident in our ability to provide the necessary support and recovery care at home. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend Veterinary Emergency Group highly enough. If your pet ever requires urgent or emergency veterinary care, VEG, with their dedicated team including Dr. Madison Bober, Nurse Sue, CeC Imani, and Jamie, is a place where you can expect not only expert medical attention but also genuine care and clear communication throughout the entire process.

It’s safe to say Priscillie was NOT happy with ME when I brought her home but she received the best care ever and I’m so happy I tried this place out! I cannot thank the staff enough for how kind, patient, and caring they were. I got to be as involved as possible to help ease P’s anxiety and they went above and beyond with all aspects of her care!

I can’t thank the staff at Veg enough for their compassion, tireless work, and unwavering dedication to their patients. During an extremely busy day, Dr. Cameron, Dr. Wells, and Dr. Thomas did everything they possibly could for our sweet Betty. They communicated Betty’s prognosis to us in a clear manner and were honest and kind at every turn. Every single staff member had her best interest and comfort in mind and helped keep me grounded. Our technicians Caitlin, Melissa, Danielle, and everyone involved in triaging her as a stat patient worked together to make sure she received the best care as quickly as possible. Raven and Jackie at the front desk checked on us frequently and never made us feel rushed about billing during this extremely difficult time and did everything to make us feel comfortable given the circumstances. During this time, the staff did a tremendous job with not only providing incredible care for our sweet girl but every single patient that walked through the door. Again I want to thank every single person on staff who helped our sweet Betty find peace, especially Dr. Thomas for giving her every chance possible and helping us say goodbye. The compassion we felt at Veg brought me to tears. I don’t think I have the words to truly express my gratitude to each of you but please know that your kind words and support aren’t something I’ll ever forget. On behalf of our little stinky lady, thank you so much.

I want to share my excellent experience at the VEG ER for Pets veterinary clinic. I brought my pet, Texas, and we received exceptional care from the very first moment. Dr. Abedelhadi was highly professional, attentive, and dedicated to explaining every detail of my pet's condition, which gave me great peace of mind. Nurses Kelly and Ashley, along with assistants Sam and Cally, were incredibly kind throughout the visit and attentive to every need. I also want to highlight the receptionist, Jackie, who welcomed us with a very warm and efficient attitude. The entire team was prepared even before we arrived, demonstrating their commitment and organization. Overall, the care we received was warm, professional, and deeply compassionate. I felt I was in good hands, and I would undoubtedly recommend this place to anyone seeking quality veterinary care for their pet—because our pets are part of the family.

I would highly recommend taking your pet to VEG ER for Pets. The staff was very kind, knowledgeable, and helpful. We were seen pretty much immediately, and I was kept apprised of everything that they were doing to care for my pet. I even watched them perform the x-rays through a little window. It’s a bit expensive, but not egregiously so when compared to other emergency vets in the area. For the services rendered and the quality of the staff alone it was well worth it. Striper and I are so grateful!

My blue heeler received amazing care here. No one wants to go to the emergency vet, but this experience was as painless as it could possibly be. The dr saw our dog within minutes of walking in and communicated a care plan quickly. They provided a quiet room for us because our dog is anxious. The nurses were knowledgeable, efficient, and comforting. My dog was admitted for the night, and they provided EVERYTHING so I could stay with her: bed, phone charger, toothbrush, coffee, snacks… I would never have expected that from an emergency vet. Not only that, but my dog received a very high quality of care, and she is now home and well. I could not be more grateful.

VEG emergency vets was a savior for our elderly dog today . He's 13 and was in such pain all night he could not lie down, he paced and panted. He has arthritis and joint pain . VEG got him on meds to make him comfortable so our son who's had him since the first grade could spend a bit more time with him . I truly didn't expect to bring him home but he's wagging his tail at our son and eating . We know we are going to say good bye soon but not today . We were able to help make decisions. We were giving an option for X-rays but asked if we could just try meds to get him comfortable. They were totally okay with that . They made us feel comfortable and seeing them care for other pets as well was a experience that reassured us we took him to the right place ! This facility is top notch and was so needed in our area. Prices were very reasonable for emergency pet care. Thank you VEG ❤️❤️

A sincere thank you to Dr. Diana, Amanda, Jenna, and the entire team at VEG Cambridge for the incredible care and compassion shown to my dog during our visit. From the initial assessment to the X-rays and blood work, everyone was so kind, attentive, and supportive throughout the process. Dr. Diana took the time to thoroughly explain the examination findings with such insight and care, which truly helped bring comfort during a stressful moment. We are deeply grateful for the professionalism, empathy, and dedication your team brings every day. Thank you again for taking such wonderful care of my dog Gomdori! Bravo team 💯 PS Dori says Thank You! (picture attached 🥰)
