The customer service here was outstanding from the very first call to verify they had antivenom, all the way until we walked out the door. Our dog was bitten by a rattlesnake, and we were already overwhelmed and nervous. As soon as we arrived, the staff jumped in to help—calm, understanding, and thorough with explanations. They handled the chaos beautifully, even while I was juggling my injured dog and a very curious 4-year-old asking tons of questions. I truly hope I never have to return, but if I do, I know we’ll be in excellent hands. Highly recommend!

VEG ran like a well oiled machine lubricated with compassion, care, teamwork. Everyone was engaged. No one seemed tired or irritated. We were there after midnight. There were several critical pets already there or that came in. They took precedence because my pup was not critical. However, I was made aware of the wait and why. We were checked on regularly and given wait time for labs & x-ray results. Hospitalization was handled the same way. And the day team was working with the same integrity and dedication. I will not hesitate to return or refer friends & family.

What started as an extremely difficult and emotional day ended in a level of kindness I haven’t experienced in a very long time. My dog had an emergency early this morning, and after months of ongoing stress and hardship, I was already overwhelmed. From the moment I walked in, I was met with compassion, patience, and genuine care. Dr. Ayoub was incredibly kind, thorough, and thoughtful—taking the time to explain everything and making sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. Caitlin at reception was phenomenal and truly a gem / angel on earth. Thank you for chatting with me while I was so nervous. Every single person I interacted with treated me with such warmth that I found myself overwhelmed with emotion—in the best way. They took amazing care of my Suki, and I left not only with peace of mind, but with a sense of hope and positivity that I hadn’t felt in quite some time. I will recommend this team to anyone and everyone. It’s clear they truly love animals—and just as importantly, they care for the people who love them. Dr. Ayoub, I will never forget your compassion and kindness. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
