We had to bring our fur baby Heidi in for emergency care at VEG in Sugar Land yesterday & Dr. Lee was wonderful. He was so caring & kind to both us & our fur baby. She’s truly our baby so it made a huge difference while we were so worried & she wasn’t feeling well. All of the staff & nurses were awesome too. Our girl was actually happy each time someone came in to get her for testing, to check on her or to talk with us. We’re so grateful for the level of care & kindness we received. It made a difficult situation a lot easier to get through. We highly recommend this place if you ever need emergency vet care.

We were sent to VEG from urgent care for continued overnight care and treatment. My kitty suffered from an acute kidney event and recovered quickly and fully at VEG. I like that the triage area is in the middle of the room when you enter and the kennels are open to the room. Your animal is treated and cared for right in front of you. You can stay with your pet as long and often as you care to. You speak directly with a vet when you call with questions. All the staff are very kind and loving toward the animals. You can tell they definitely care about your babies. My experience was great. The only downside is this level of care comes with a great expense, but they will tell you up front what the cost will be.

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. ❤️

Hey. My name is Oliver. I’m a Goldendoodle who likes to eat things that I shouldn’t. I swallowed a part of my toy yesterday and my dad was convinced it was an emergency. 🙄Thankfully, he took me to VEG in Clifton. They are so pawsome! They saw us immediately. Within 8 minutes of walking through the door, they had me vomiting the thing I was allegedly not supposed to eat. They even gave me fluids so I could leave nice and strong. I don’t like going to see a doctor, but they make me feel super comfortable and really show me lots of love and care so it makes the experience digestible (hoomans call that a pun). Anyway, just wanted to thank Dr. Rothstein for overseeing my care along with Ariel, Darcy, Jackie, and all the other ladies who absolutely fell in love with me. I mean, helped me (sorry, autocorrect). Anyway, gotta go. Dad is calling me to the park. Thanks again guys. I’ll be sure to tell all my friends. 🐶🫶🏽

Everything in this place was outstanding!! Dr. Brennan and the team gave my dog such care at a time when I was so upset about him being attacked / fight with a bigger dog. They were professional, the place was spotless and everyone was so caring! I give them high marks and recommend going here if ever you are in an emergency with your pet 100%. Kudos to George who cared for Kimbo. I do not remember everyone’s name but they were ALL great.

This morning I brought my 2 year old cat in who vomited reddish watery liquid. I lost a cat suddenly when he was 2 years old in 2021 so this was a tough trip to make. The staff was amazing!! So kind and made me laugh a few times. Dr. Beckman was prompt, thorough and validated all my concerns. Even through my cat getting fluids and medication, not happy and let the techs know it too! 🤣 They all remained so calm and sweet to my little one. I hope I don't need to go back ever again but they will certainly be the place I do go if needed in the future. Thank you all SO SO much!!! Keep up the incredible work. Rue sends her love 🤣🐈‍⬛❤️

My Jack Russell was attacked by a coyote. I called ahead and they had doors open and table ready with all hands on deck. The calm demeanour by everyone helped keep me calm. He stayed 4 days since he was in such bad shape. They saved his life and treated him like he was their own. I know he was held and loved at night when I or my husband couldn’t be there. Thank you Dr Boiskin and Dr smith (day and night doctors who spent by far the most time working on him). Highly recommend VEG!

My poodle puppy was having diarrhea all night, the night before her spay appointment. As if she knew… I couldn’t get into my regular vet, so I popped into the VEG in Oceanside and they immediately got to work. Ultimately I was able to postpone the spay appointment 24 hours based on the recommendation from the doctor. Highly recommend this Vet.

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.

Highly recommend bringing your loved pets here. The care and service towards the pets and their humans was above and beyond. Transparency is a value here as there is no bringing your pet “to the back” - every station is out in the open so you can be with your pet through every procedure and test. The staff has blankets and drinks for the humans to ensure we are also comfortable while waiting for our pets to heal. The demeanor and care from the staff was truly something I’ve never experienced at a vet before - I felt so taken care of and believed my dog was in the best hands possible. I walked in with my dog who had lethargy, loss of appetite, and diarrhea, and there was no wait, and urgency to solve the issue. What we though was an irritated GI tract was actually a flipped stomach, to which the entire team responded to rapidly and brought him into surgery. I was allowed to stay overnight with my dog while he was healing which helped the both of us with our anxiety. I have never witnessed this concept at a veterinary clinic before and I wish i could give 10 stars

All the doctors & techs that took care of Harper Jo were Fantastic!!! They took such good care of her & of us. We were seen right as soon as we walked in & they really cared about her!! We can’t say enough GREAT things about this place & all the people that took such great care of our baby girl!!! Thank you so much!! We love you all….

I cannot say enough incredible things about Veterinary Emergency Group. They recently took care of my 14-week-old puppy, Timber, after she accidentally swallowed a treble hook hidden in some moss. It was one of the scariest moments of my life, but the entire team handled it with compassion, confidence, and absolute professionalism. From the moment we walked in, they treated Timber like she was their own. They kept me informed every step of the way, moved quickly without ever making me feel rushed, and showed such genuine care for her comfort and safety. Knowing she was in their hands brought me so much peace. A special thank-you to the team for coming up with what they called the Axl maneuver — their creativity and expertise quite literally saved Timber from a very dangerous situation. I’m endlessly grateful for their quick thinking and dedication. Timber is home, safe, happy, and healing — all thanks to VEG. I will recommend them to anyone who loves their pet like family. They truly are heroes in scrubs. 🐾❤️

At 3 am on a Sunday our cat had a medical emergency. We called Veg and they took us right in. Unfortunately, we had to put our sweet girl down and there was nothing anyone could do. Given the circumstances the staff at Veg were so kind, compassionate and completely devoted to helping. Thank you to the staff and doctors at Veg. Your service was truly amazing during this difficult time.

When Jersey was hospitalized at VEG for three days, the team transformed one of the most stressful experiences into something I will always be grateful for. Jersey is a very anxious senior dog. Like many pet parents, I was terrified when she needed emergency care. My previous experience at another local animal hospital left me feeling helpless and disconnected because I wasn't allowed to stay with my pet. VEG was the complete opposite. There are no restrictive visiting hours. You can come and go as needed. Whenever I visited Jersey, the staff welcomed me with kindness and compassion. Every time I visited, a nurse would pull up a chair beside Jersey's crate and encourage me to spend time with her while she received her IV fluids. Being able to hold her in my lap during a stressful experience was a gift. Throughout her stay, every doctor, nurse, and team member treated both Jersey and me with patience, empathy, and respect. They took the time to answer questions, explain her treatment, and make sure I felt informed and supported. The true testament to how special VEG is can be found in Jersey herself. Normally, she pulls and rushes past veterinary offices as quickly as possible. Yet after her potty breaks during her hospitalization, she would willingly walk back into VEG. For an anxious dog like Jersey, that spoke volumes. My deepest thanks to Dr. Weggeland, Dr. Hauser, Dr. Friedman, Dr. Green, and Dr. Johnson, as well as Christina, Nicole, Elise (?), and the many other nurses and staff members whose names I unfortunately can't recall. Every one of you played a role in helping Jersey and supporting me through a difficult time. VEG took a stressful and traumatic situation for both an anxious pet and a worried pet parent and made it feel safe, compassionate, and even special. I will never forget the care we received.

VEG took amazing care of our cat, Paisley, over the weekend when her regular vet was closed. From immediate triage, to the care she needed following that, she was treated with care, compassion, and remarkable thoroughness. The staff treated her humans the same way, explaining her care, her diagnosis, (pancreatitis,) and discussing next steps with us and seeking our approval for each stage of her care. Costs were discussed up front. I was expecting her treatment to cost a good bit more than it did, so that was a pleasant surprise. Thank you, VEG, for taking care of our family.

I had taken a duckling who suffered from trauma over here for an evaluation and whether euthanasia would be the better choice rather than rehabilitation. From the very beginning of contacting this establishment, everyone I spoke to was incredibly kind, patient, and even humorous in the perfect times that made the situation much more tolerable. The doctors took their time examining the duckling I brought in and were very gentle with explaining why euthanasia would be the best, and I was not pressured at all to sign away responsibility/ownership of the duckling until after the examination and a decision on what to do, which I appreciate. Given my situation being a wild life animal, I was able to receive services for free, so I cannot attest to pricing; however, the staff were great.

Had a Father’s Day issue with my two dogs. Right from the start when I called to notify them I was coming in they made me feel like i was making the right choice. Amanda and Brittney at the front desk were extremely helpful and comforting. The doctors and all the assistants were also extremely knowledgable, friendly, and professional . Everyone was on point! Thank you again! Sapphire and Jade also say thank you for making them Feel better!

We are so grateful to this amazing vet team for taking such great care of our cat, Baby Boy (Aboi). Thanks to their care and attention, he recovered so quickly, which meant the world to us. A special thank-you to Dr. Sana Banaeianzadeh, who made sure Aboi was truly ready and in good condition before sending him home. She was incredibly kind, thorough, and reassuring throughout the process. She even sent us home with two jars of baby food to help him regain his appetite — such a thoughtful and caring gesture that really shows how much she cares about her patients. We couldn’t be more thankful and highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for compassionate, attentive veterinary care.

I was totally upset and worked up when I called VEG ER, but the gentleman on the phone was incredibly kind and calm. When I walked in, I was impressed by how clean and organized the building was. The open concept floor was not what I was expecting but it was really awesome being with my dog every step of the way. The gentleman that helped us offered a bed for my dog to lay on, which was good because we waited like 5 hours. They offer snacks, drinks, as well as blankets for humans because it gets quite cold in there. Everyone there was kind and friendly. You could really tell they were dedicated to their job and providing the best experience for their patients. My princess loved being able to watch everyone walk around her and was completely content. The doctor even sat with her when we were finally seen so she wouldn’t have to be moved. :) All the staff talked to her like a baby whenever they addressed her which made me happy too. Really shows they love animals. Paid about $660 to find out she didn’t have a lot of poop in her, but the peace of mind was worth it. Getting to see how they take x-rays was cool too, even if my poor baby had to be manhandled hehe. The bill was much cheaper than I expected, which was nice. It was for the initial exam and the x-rays. Would highly recommend coming here for a transparent, wonderful experience! ❤️

I'd definitely recommend them. My husky does do well at vets, so they allow you to stay with your fur baby the entire time, they have an open layout where staff comes to you so you aren’t stuck in a room. They were extremely gentle with him and me… and I know we both felt more relaxed!! You can tell they love their job and are dedicated to taking care of your pet.
