Did you know?

VEG Cary is a VEG Blood Bank location, which provides blood for canines. These donations help save the lives of dogs in need of transfusions. The blood we store can be available to a VEG hospital or shared with a local veterinarian. It’s one more way VEG can give back to the community. You can help by signing up your dog to be a blood donor. Find out more or ask one of our VEGgies about the VEG Blood Bank.

I could not be more grateful for the staff here! I had an emergency with my beloved pig, Timon. After calling about 10 other places at 7pm on a Monday night, all of which would not take Timon because they don’t treat pigs or they don’t do emergencies for non patients…. I called VEG and they did not even hesitate when I asked to bring him in. I told them I was about 2 hours away and they told me they would have a room ready for me when I arrived! From the moment we arrived they were amazing! Even though the night did not end with me taking my Timon home… I could not be more grateful for these people! They made sure he was comfortable and not in pain. They had snacks for me to give him so he was happy in his last moments before it was time for goodbye…. They walked me through the whole process and were very thoughtful and caring through the whole thing. Again I could not be more grateful for the staff!

Dr. Johnson, Kiersten, Shannon, Mario, Dr. Niles, and their team (I need help with all of the names), were absolutely amazing. Not only did they save our girl, they were thorough, sought consultation, made educated decisions, and most of all embraced us all like family. We owe them our gratitude and support for the rest of our days! All of them! Dr. J and Kiersten took charge right away and their team followed their lead! Even through shift changes, we were always attended to and cared for, especially Koda and myself! Her pups were fed and happy, and I trusted them all. 🐶🐾❤️

Everybody from the people at the front desk to the nurses and doctors were very polite, friendly and accommodating. They were very busy, but still found time and spaceto take our pup in as a walk-in. The doctors and nurses were very professional and knowledgeable and we’re upfront about all the procedures that were taking place. They presented all the options available and listed the range of probable costs. They kept us updated with status checks while our dog was at the facility. We felt like our pup was in very good hands, and indeed she was because after two days of observations and IV fluids (our pup had ingested large amount of medicine).we were able to bring her home healthy. VEG definitely saved our puppy. Highly recommend them for your emergency needs.
