VEG Emergency Vet
fort lauderdale, Florida

I was referred to VEG by another 24-hr emergency center because of the specialty required to handle my puppy’s trauma. VEG has the ingredients necessary to correct and resolve even the toughest cases. Their entire staff is knowledgeable and ready to help and deal with the craziest of emotions during your darkest hour. If you want the best, VEG is the veterinary emergency hospital of choice. The tech staff and all the doctors (Kagan & Prieto in Lenny’s case) are dedicated and professional. They will do what needs to be done to help your baby quickly, while focusing on not only the pets’ comfort but yours. Both of Lenny’s eyes prolapsed. He needed emergency surgery to stitch both eyes together. Since the emergency visit, he is under the care of an eye specialist. Unfortunately, the specialist was not available same-day to inspect a setback noticed overnight. My gut told me not to wait for tomorrow and return to VEG. Once again, they took care of an unforeseen situation that could have hindered his recovery. Because of VEG, my puppy will be able to regain most of his vision and hopefully have a healthy, vibrant life. A+

I can’t say enough good things about Veterinary Emergency Group (VEG)! From the moment we called, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. They sent us a digital enrollment form while we were on the way, making check-in seamless. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the doctor immediately—no long wait times or unnecessary stress. The entire visit was efficient, and we were in and out in less than an hour. I highly recommend VEG for anyone in need of urgent veterinary care!

My Walter White was having some rapid breathing today and I took him to VEG. Its a 10 min drive from my house and was happy to see plenty of parking. I was greeted at the door by a technician who said out loud that we were entering the building. They weighed Walter and took us to a station where they took our information and started hooking him up to an oxygen saturation monitor and took his temperature. Dr. Alexis Marti came over to discuss what was going on with Walter. She examined him and brought the ultrasound over to take a peek at his heart/lungs. She developed a treatment plan and the technician went over it with me. I was very satisfied with the plan for xrays and bloodwork. After the radiologist examined the images and Dr. Marti went over the interpretation, we got his medications and we were out the door. My overall feeling about VEG is that the staff is very nice to me and Walter, took the time to smooch on him and I felt that they really like what they do. Dr. Marti was VERY comforting to me that she would get a plan together for my sweet boy. I would not hesitate to go back again for any emergency. I felt they were able to treat Walter in a reasonable amount of time. The cost was commensurate with what we got for treatment. Dr. Marti took the time with me to answer all of my questions.
