Came in with a cat that was expelling out of both ends. We were treated with care and kindness. The staff and Doctor were pleasant and polite. I would recommend this place highly. The plan they came up with was reasonable and the price acceptable given it’s an emergency room. The condition of the facility was clean as well. They are also conveniently located making it an easy 2mile drive there. I’m happy to have found a Vet ER so close, clean and kind. Thank you for helping my kitty out.

We can't say enough good things about VEG ER in Clearwater. Our 10 year old Yellow Lab had a complete intestinal blockage, and we spent 14 hours there. From the moment we arrived, the entire team was incredible. We were there through three different shifts, and every single person from the lead veterinarian to the nurses, technicians, and front desk staff was compassionate, patient, and genuinely caring. One thing that was very important to us is they allowed us to stay with our dog the entire time. Once a room was available, they prepared a private room with a small couch so we could be as comfortable as possible while staying by his side. That level of compassion made such a difficult situation a little easier to get through. Even after we went home, I called the next two days because I still had questions about our dog's condition. The veterinarians on duty took the time to answer every question without rushing me, and I truly appreciated that. VEG made the best of a very scary and emotional experience. If your pet ever has an emergency, I highly recommend them. Their kindness, professionalism, and genuine care for both pets and their families was exceptional.

Very satisfied with my cat emergency visit yesterday. My cat was panting and since he is of Persian breed, it was taken very seriously which eased my anxiety. My boy’s vitals were taken immediately and he was put into oxygen right away. I could see my cat in the oxygen tank the whole time and he was already looking so much better just after a few minutes. The vet techs, doctor, and receptionists were so helpful in the whole process. We were constantly getting updates on my baby boy and everything was explained thoroughly. We were always attended to which is huge because so many pet ERs would put you in a room with your pet and you could be forgotten about for hours. This was not the case at VEG! So grateful for this location, the staff, and all their kind and compassionate care. Thank you VEG and Dr. Mir and all the staff working on Sunday morning! Blessings upon blessings to all of you!
