I really can’t recommend VEG enough. I’ve had some pretty bad experiences in emergency Veterinarian room situations, they are never pleasant, but The staff at VEG In Boca Raton, Florida across the board was compassionate quick to serve patient and kind. I am dealing with a dog that has a very advanced nasal cancer. The symptoms In the beginning are very subtle and then the tumor comes on aggressively so we weren’t prepared for this Visual diagnosis. Dr. McVey Sat with me in a room for what seemed like hours, deciding what I should do. I ended up taking my baby home as she was not at all ready to give up the fight with a tail wag and a chipper walk out to the car. I made the right decision. We have had the best two weeks just spending time, We got to spend Easter with her and many sunsets. Long slow walks in the evening.and yes we are working through her symptoms that are sometimes unpleasant, but her quality of life is still very good, she’s hungry and she is in the game wanting to participate in everything. Until she is ready, we will Continue. The VEG has let me know that they are there 24 seven anytime I need their help which gives me the courage to continue. Their office is clean open, and you get to stay with your baby and hold them throughout the process. That meant everything to me to be there with her to help make whatever decision has to be made. I would say if you are in the south Florida area do not go anywhere else but VEG And your pets time of need.

If you want KIND, CARING, COMPASSIONATE, PROFESSIONAL, FRIENDLY, SKILLED treatment for your sick or injured animal, then VEG is the place to bring them. From reception to the doctor, this was what we experienced when we brought our dog, Zooey, in for treatment. We were allowed into the treatment room so Zooey wouldn’t be surrounded by strangers as they worked on her. She was much more relaxed having her mom and dad with her when she wasn’t feeling well. I highly recommend Veterinary Emergency Group to anyone who cares about their pets and wants the best possible treatment for them.

I cannot stress enough how lucky we are to have VEG here. We had Dr. Calhoon help us and he was just wonderful. I believe also Toni helped us as well who got Minnie all comfortable. From walking into VEG to the checkout process I didn’t feel overwhelmed even though my dog Minnie was just not acting right. Every employee at VEG was so helpful I cannot stress how thankful I am that they are here for us. Minnie is doing better and I’m so thankful she is my best friend! Thank you VEG and all of your associates!
