Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about the services at VEG ER for Pets

IS VEG OPEN 24 HOURS?

Yes, all VEG locations are open all the time – 24 hours a day, 365 days a year – even on holidays and weekends to care for pet emergencies.

DO I NEED AN APPOINTMENT?

At VEG, we don’t take appointments, because we deal with emergencies. When the unexpected happens, call us or walk in to your nearest VEG location 24/7 for immediate care.

HOW DO I KNOW IF IT’S AN EMERGENCY?

Never self-diagnose your pet. Sometimes you just can’t tell if your pet is having a true emergency. But VEG can. Call your local VEG anytime and a veterinarian will answer your medical questions and determine if you should come in.

CAN I GO TO VEG FOR URGENT CARE?

Yes, VEG offers Pet Urgent Care for injuries and illnesses such as vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, limping, wounds, ear infections, eye problems, and constipation! Visit your local VEG and we’ll triage urgent care for your pet immediately. Learn more about the medical services we offer.

WHERE CAN I TAKE MY PET BIRD OR EXOTIC PET IN AN EMERGENCY?

VEG is skilled to handle emergency care for avians, reptiles, and all types of exotic pets.

DO I HAVE TO CALL BEFORE COMING IN?

Though you can just walk into any of our 24 hour hospitals, we recommend calling first so we’re familiar with the situation when you come in.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT AT VEG?

When you take your pet to VEG, you’ll be seen by a veterinarian right away, even before filling out paperwork. We’ll even meet you at your car if you need help bringing in your pet. No waiting in the lobby; you stay with your pet the entire time, even if surgery is involved. And yes, we’re pet lovers, but we’re people-friendly too! We’ll openly discuss diagnosis and treatment options. And we always make sure the pet patient and pet parent are as comfortable as possible.

My kitten was taken in on Memorial day because her belly had swelled and had not gone down for two daya. Dr.Shaw took immediate action and the helping staff were also both kind and communicative. Im very happy to say that the treatment given seems to be working well as my kittens swelling is going down and her energy is increasing. Very happy with the service and if the need arses VEG will be my first choice.

VEG is revolutionary. Being able to stay with my cat, and be there for him, made the whole experience less scary and stressful for us both. Jonah could have died, but the VEG docs and staff acted quickly and he's now back home and happy. I've never had as good an experience at an emergency clinic. Thank you, VEG!

I can't say enough great things about VEG in the 5 minutes I spent there. After a 90 minute wait with no acknowledgment at Blue Pearl, we left and came to VEG. I had accidentally misread the dosage on a prescription bottle and was freaking out. I walked in, explained what happened, a doctor immediately came over and did the math on the dosage and told me it was not as bad as I thought and told me to withhold anymore of the prescription until today. We called our vet this morning and they agreed with VEG that it wasn't as big of a deal as I thought. VEG also was kind enough to tell me if this situation ever happened again that I could just give them a call and they would let me know if I should come in or not moving forward. I'm very excited to have this new option so close by.
