24 Hour Emergency Vet and Urgent Pet Care in
oak brook, Illinois
Dr. Laura Kozlowski
Medical Director
Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University
Pre-VEG, Dr. Kozlowski practiced urgent care in Chicago. She worked in multiple New York VEG hospitals before opening VEG in Lincoln Park. She now brings her expertise to Oak Brook, where her fave aspects of the ER are the unpredictability, fast pace, and helping owners through scary moments with their pets. Owns two Great Pyrenees mixes and 2 cats, and says that if vacuuming were an Olympic sport, she’d have a gold medal thanks to her dogs!
Sometimes it’s obvious when your pet needs immediate help. But sometimes they just seem “off.” That’s where our emergency vets in Oak Brook come in. From vomiting to complex surgeries, we treat emergency and urgent care needs for all kinds of pets—even avians and exotics! Discover the VEG difference, with our open floor plan hospitals, pet-parent participation, and an emergency-focused team that’s always ready to expect the unexpected.
