The staff at VEG were amazing. We brought our dog in having neurological issues. A nurse met us as we walked in the door and we were seen immediately. The staff there were incredibly kind. As the medical staff worked on our dog, the office staff repeatedly checked on my husband and I. There were there with tissues, water, and many kind words. I cannot recommend this emergency vet enough. Thank you so much for helping us with Griffin.

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.

Mel, Elly, and Marianne were world-class. Such an incredible, caring, and personable team. This is hands down the best vet service I’ve ever experienced. Everyone was completely locked in and genuinely cared about my cat. You can tell this isn’t just a job to them. They were super responsive, compassionate, and always one step ahead. I truly appreciate their care and heart. By the end, they felt like they were my cousins lol. If every vet operated like this, the world would be a better place.

My senior dog needed emergency care after hours and he was seen and treated right away! He spent the night and is doing so much better thanks to the caring and attentive team. So thankful for an animal ER that lets you stay with your pet the whole time.

This place not only treated my everything, Chelsea, as VIP… they kept me feeling more than capable of handling whatever the next step or outcome was going to be. So so grateful. I want to thank all of the staff, but especially the nurses/techs that were just phenomenal; specifically Alex, Jess, and Hannah. I won’t trust my dog (or cat) with anyone other vet ER after this visit. I did not get to write down the main vet that worked my pups case, but her patience and kindness and willingness to explain everything with so much detail, turned what can easily be a nightmare of an experience into something manageable. THANK YOU ❤️‍🩹

Very organized, clean and most of all considerate and understanding when a pet parent is there because of an emergency. Jordan needed surgery for removal of an object he ate. It was removed at 4am after x-rays and giving it time to hopefully pass. He was up and ready to go home in just a few hours! Thanks to a great surgeon and team!

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.

We had such a good experience with Yocelyne and Dr. Zachary and the rest of the team here. $400 out of pocket to induce vomiting after our 13 week old puppy swallows a sock whole. The nurse, vet, and vet assistant were so sweet with our boy. Came at 9 pm on a weeknight and despite there being multiple other pets there, we were seen promptly and were home by 10 pm. Can't recommend enough!

Our puppy was having stomach issues (diarrhea & throwing up). Came here and was seen immediately. Everything was clean and great communication between the main vet and this team. Dr. Stevie and our nurse were amazing. Answered all our questions super quickly and comprehensively. She even gave us some preventative tips for long-term care for our pup at home. The nurse told us the facility is open concept, so you’re able to pretty much be next to your pet for almost every procedure, which is so important for keeping them calm in a usually stressful situation. Also, the cost wasn’t too much more compared with going to the normal vet, which was such a pleasant surprise. I highly suggest this capable team for anyone who needs speedy, accurate, and thoughtful care!

Our sweet Stella had to go to VEG ER Frisco on June 6th around 4am. She had given birth to (6) pups at home, but the (7) pup had not been birth after (3) hours. During the process of her giving birth, I called their office to ask a few question (first timer here) and Dr. Koons was very informative through what to expect. After making the right call, the (7) baby could not make it into this world at home and we headed to see Dr. Koons in person. She had the room all ready for us when we arrived. When I say her and all other staff went above and beyond for us is an understatement. Dr. Koons is a genuine soul that puts care and detail into all she does. We knew Stella was at least pregnant with 10 pups. After the 10th was born at the ER (past Dr. Koons shift), she went back for an x-ray, surprise, we had two more!! Y’all!! Twelve puppies!! Thank you, Kaitlyn, Arianna, Abby, Beth, Dr. Koons and Dr. Nelson for the outstanding service and care of our family/pups. Everything was performed right in front of us and that was important not to be shut in a room while our Stella was behind closed doors in another room. Since birth, I have called back serval times when our regular vets office was closed. Outstanding service each time. My heart cannot express our gratitude enough!! Sincerely - Stella & Family paws up - high five 🐾♥️🙌👏

I cannot even begin to express my gratitude for the doctors and staff at VEG. My wife and daughters brought in our 13 week mini-Aussie on Sunday evening and he was in shock when they arrived. I won’t go into details but he was nearly dead due to an accidental ingestion of some type of medication. The medical team’s expertise and efficiency resulted in the very best outcome for our new family member as we were able to bring him home yesterday acting like a healthy puppy once again. The work these people do is truly amazing. It is intense and non-stop. However, to top it all off they also demonstrate such a beautiful spirit of care and compassion. Everyone was so kind to my family. God bless you all!!!

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!

WOW. I cannot say enough great things about this hospital. We were 6 hours away from home when our girl got bit by another dog at a campground. We expected to spend basically the entire night sitting in a waiting room, but we have never been to a VEG hospital… From the moment we walked in, they greeted us at the door and we never had to leave our dog’s side through the whole process. The clinic was SO CLEAN and the staff were absolutely elite. They were friendly, knowledgeable and so patient with us and gentle with our girl. The vet quite literally sat next to us and wrote up a care plan explaining every single step and was so upfront about cost and recovery. We are so grateful for their incredible compassion and top-notch care they gave her. Easily the best experience we have ever had at an ER Vet. We were in and out in less than 3 hours. Huge shoutout to Dr. Forton, Emile, Yorrick & Jenn - you guys are absolute rockstars and turned what could have been a nightmare ordeal into a positive experience. And yes, we will be seeking out other VEGgies 😆 back home in WI.

We had to bring Zoey in for an emergency, and we couldn’t have chosen a better place to care for her. From the moment we arrived, both the veterinarian and the nurse assisting her were exceptional. During such a stressful time, they both showed great professionalism, empathy, patience, and, above all, treated Zoey with so much love and care.They kept us informed, answered all our questions, and made sure our baby received the attention she needed. We are extremely grateful for the way they treated us and for the reassurance they provided throughout the emergency. 🐾 **Excellent Team. We definitely recommend this veterinary clinic 100%.

VEG is phenomenal. I cannot express enough how knowledgeable, kind, compassionate and thorough they are. Yesterday was the second time our mini Aussie has had a vaccine reaction requiring emergency care. The first time was full blown anaphylaxis.. this time was a bad case of hypersensitivity. Dr Sullivan was incredible, spent time with us, and answered tons of questions. The Vet nurse Cass was also amazing. This team, and VEG as a whole deserves to be recognized daily for the incredible work they do. I hope VEG continues to grow, every pet should have access to the kind of care they give. We had the idea to make them a care package to say thanks , I’m sure they don’t get as many thank you’s as they deserve ( Mia helped us make it ) THANK YOU ALLLL !!!!

The staff at VEG saved my dogs life🩷 We brought my senior dog Daisy in because she was not eating, and within half an hour they had identified a large ruptured tumor on her spleen. They got her stable, got us in with a specialist the same evening, and gave us all the information clearly and patiently during a very upsetting time. She’s healing beautifully now and happy to say the mass was BENIGN!! I credit this team 100% for taking things seriously right away, and finding the problem at lightning speed. We are so grateful. Dr Stephanie Leung and team, we love you!!!

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.

Cannot rate this place high enough. It is expensive but the compassion of all the nurses is truly incredible. I had to carry in my 100 pound plus dog Peter and they got to him right away. Immediately making him and us feel comfortable. We were able to stay with him the whole time even when they were doing testing. He was hospitalized overnight and we could sit with him in or next to the kennel as long as we wanted. They even baked cookies while we were there and handed them out to everyone. I’m glad to report that Peter feels much better and I wish I could make this place our main vet. They are wonderful

Got an elderly, special needs pup that’s very dog reactive but he absolutely loves every person he ever encounters. He’s kind of big, a little scary looking and very vocal. We took him to the Oak Brook ED and they were absolutely slammed. The problem is, he needs to be sequestered while he’s at the vet and while they were obviously willing to treat us, it was pretty clear that his needs were going to be a drain on their resources during an especially busy time. The vet came to see us to make sure he wasn’t critical and asked if we’d be willing to go to their Schaumburg location so he could get the attention he needed. While not an ideal option, it was a perfectly reasonable one. She verified that he wasn’t in immediate distress so I packed him up and we made the trip. The folks at Schaumburg were rockstars. They treated us like they knew him already, explained everything clearly and took care of our guy. Everything took as long as it should’ve and the staff, clinical and support, were amazing. No one wants to take a pet to the ED but if you have to, don’t hesitate, these folks know their trade. A huge shout out to the staff at Oak Brook and Schaumburg.

The amazing team at VEG saved my best friend and I will forever be indebted to them (both literally and figuratively 😅). I called in a panic that my 12year old pitbull may have bloat, and staff on the phone suspected the same, so we sped right over. Within minutes of arrival, the vet techs had done scans to confirm her stomach was indeed twisting and she needed surgery immediately. It was all-hands-on-deck to swiftly get her catheterization lines placed and release gas from her abdomen to give her some relief while the operating suite was being turned over from another surgery. I was allowed to stay with my baby as they prepped her, which was unexpected and deeply appreciated (despite how upsetting it is to see your baby go limp with sedatives and get intubated). They recognized a possible adverse reaction to the sedative within minutes and quickly reacted to address it. They kept me appraised of every step they'd be taking, then gave updates throughout the surgery. By some miracle, (really by the magic of the talented VMDs there), my old lady not only survived a major complication, (total splenectomy), but also came through surgery and recovered swiftly. I was even allowed to stay with her post-op in her kennel, which was another unexpected and happy surprise to me. I went from thinking it was time to say goodbye to my beloved old girl, to bringing her home less than 24hours later. I write this review 1-week post-op, with my old lady happily snoring next to me, and am certain this wouldn't be the case if not for how well-trained and impressive VEG staff is. Every extra moment with this girl is priceless, and VEG gave me time I didnt think I'd be getting as soon as I knew her diagnosis at this age. THANK YOU VEG!!

We came to VEG pet hospital and it was amazing! Not only did we get seen right away but they were so fast, kind and unbelievably fantastic. This clinic took less than 2 hours to get the exam and X-rays. They made sure the dog was comfortable the whole time and communicated with us about everything. I was very pleased with this place after the nightmare I had to deal with. After 9+ hours and a long night at a terrible pet clinic, who ended up not helping us at all, VEG did everything and more! I would come here for any pet emergencies now. Totally worth the drive.

They made both of us feel comfortable during a stressful time, and I truly appreciated their patience and caring attitude.

I highly recommend the staff at this VEG EG after the care they provided my dog, Brady, following an injury he suffered. What started off as a straightforward need for stitches quickly became more serious when Brady experienced several episodes of ventricular tachycardia (vtach) related to a reaction to medications and potentially an underlying heart problem. It was incredibly scary, but the staff responded quickly and professionally, communicated clearly, and did everything they could to keep both Brady and me comfortable throughout the experience. The staff I worked with demonstrated compassion and integrity. I also really appreciated the thoughtful accommodations for pet owners. From comfortable spaces to stay with your pet, to snacks, drinks, and other small touches, it was clear to me that VEG understood emergencies are hard on people, too. Those kinds of details honestly made a meaningful difference during a really stressful evening. When I left Brady overnight for monitoring, I felt a bit nervous (as any owner likely would) but I mostly felt grateful that he was alive and in good hands. The next morning, I received a timely update (as promised), clear discharge instructions, and Brady has since made an excellent recovery! See pictures of him right after surgery vs. today. I cannot recommend VEG ER more if your pet needs urgent care. I know I sound like an ad, but the environment and level of care they provided to both my dog and me from start to finish was truly set apart from any other vet I've used. And I've had some wonderful vets over the years, so I don't say that lightly. :)

VEG saw my French bulldog for a heat related injury. As soon as we walked in the door we were met with prompt attention to our girl. She was on a treatment immediately despite the fact she was in fairly stable condition. The entire staff was so welcoming, loving and empathetic. Dr. Eisemenn met with us instantly and began the exam right away. Dr. Eisemenn and his team were excellent! Yes, emergency visits are expensive and we were provided an estimate without asking. We really appreciated the upfront transparency. Happy to say our girl is feeling as best as she can and she is recovering nicely at home. We are really grateful to the VEG team because this could have been a worse situation. Thank you!

I am so, so thankful VEG opened here. We brought in our dog Sophie after she had quite a large, open laceration on her leg. She is a very anxious dog at the vet but everyone (and I mean everyone!) at VEG tried to make her feel welcome and comfortable. They knew exactly how to approach my dog and get her trust within minutes. I especially loved that we could be with Sophie the whole time-- this meant we could tell the doctors, nurses, and techs all the little things to help make Sophie's visit smoother and it worked so well. I don't think Sophie's injury was the easiest one to close but I felt like Dr Rivera-Ramirez and Dr Pham did an excellent job given the circumstances and risks of a high movement area. There was so much care and expertise in their work. Overall, taking my dog to VEG was the best decision we could have made for her. Even though I wish my dog was not injured, they did everything to help her heal and make her feel comfortable. We'll be back if needed and I'm really just so thankful for the team here. You all are the best and made a very stressful night so much more manageable ❤️

If you ever have a pet emergency this is the place to go. My cat Hiccup needed to be seen not once but twice this week and both times the staff was kind, caring and attentive. I was able to be with my pet through every test and exam, able to be involved and keep my cat calm and comfortable throughout it all.

Our experience with VEG ER for Pets was exceptional from start and sadly to finish. The entire team demonstrated outstanding professionalism, compassion, and expertise during a very emotionally stressful situation. Every member of the staff treated both us and our sick fur child with genuine kindness, taking the time to explain every step of the evaluation and treatment process thoroughly. The veterinarians and technicians were knowledgeable, attentive, and clearly dedicated to providing the highest level of emergency care. Their communication was excellent, ensuring we understood our pet's condition and treatment options while making us feel supported throughout the entire visit. The facility was clean, well-organized, and welcoming, and it was evident that patient care is their top priority. Knowing our pet was in such capable hands gave us tremendous peace of mind during a difficult time. We are incredibly grateful for the exceptional care provided by the entire team at VEG ER for Pets. Their commitment to excellence, compassion, and professionalism truly sets them apart. I highly recommend VEG ER for Pets to anyone in need of 24/7 emergency veterinary care. Thank you for everything you do for our beloved pets and their families.

VEG is amazing! The staff, the facilities and the care are phenomenal. You are met with compassion and genuine care for you and your pet. Humans should be treated this well by their physicians! Everything is explained, you are made to feel important and seen. The care and attention is exceptional. There was not one staff member that didn’t appear to have a positive attitude or genuine respect for the patients and their family. I was lucky to walk away with treatment and good news. I witnessed someone get not so good news- the care that the human and pet got was not only compassionate, it was beyond the call of duty. Exceptional Service in all aspects.

I recently moved to Texas and when my dog, Lucy was experiencing difficulty breathing, I had to find an emergency vet quickly. VEG ER had excellent reviews and is close to home so I chose them. I couldn't be happier with my choice. As soon as I walked in, someone greeted us and when they saw she was having trouble breathing, they immediately took action. The entire staff and Dr. Koons were wonderful. They made sure both of us were comfortable and kept me informed about her treatment. Being able to stay with Lucy the entire time made her calmer in a strange environment. I have been to many emergency vets with my dogs over the years but this one is, by far, the best I've ever been to. There were a few other families with sick pets there and each one was treated with care and respect. If you have an emergency with your pet, you could not find a better hospital than VEG ER.

The love we felt throughout this entire 24 hours can’t be put into words. From the doctors to the nurses and the entire staff … they treated kobe like he was their very own. 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.

Wow! We are currently fostering to adopt a 9 week old puppy and she started throwing up and having diarrhea today. We were referred to Blue Pearl who ended up being full and actually referred to another place that was also full. The second place referred us here and I am so thankful. This place was amazing. The staff was excellent. Super friendly, they all really loved their jobs and caring for all of the animals that came in. Special shoutout to C who was our intake tech in the isolation unit. She was vibrant, fun, so great with our puppy and just kicked off the whole experience on a positive note. Our Doctor, Dr. Morgan was also really exceptional. Very kind. Throughly walked us through what might be going on and what steps would be taken. Do not get me wrong, this was an emergency vet, we spent about 3.5 hours here, but we were constantly asked if we wanted any water, coffee or anything. That was really thoughtful of them. This will be our 1st stop moving forward in case an emergency comes up again with our babies. I can’t say enough positive things.

The veg team did an exceptional job! Every time we’ve come here, the service is always over the top! They are all very caring and attentive to not only the dogs needs, but also our needs as well! CEC Zara was very welcoming, nurse Dina was very attentive, and Dr. Conn was very empathetic very good at listening to our concerns at a time where we were nervous and scared. She offered wonderful solutions and she worked with us to help our dog get better! We had to go in two days in a row first time being our dog was in pain and very anxious and Uneasy. He was not wanting to eat and was getting dehydrated by the day. The second time we went in, Dr. Cohen helped us and she also did an Uneasy. He was not wanting to eat and was getting dehydrated by the day. The second time we went in Dr. Cohen helped us and she also did an amazing job. Thank you so much to you and your incredible team. We are super appreciative to you all! 🙏🏻 something else I love about veg is that they don’t take your pet out of sight. You’re able to see them pretty much at all times while they’re caring for them. If your Pet is experiencing an emergency, I would definitely not even think twice and bring them here to veg for any of their emergency needs!
