VEG Emergency Vet
woodbury, Minnesota

Dr. Sturgill, Dr. Nichols, and the care team at VEG went above and beyond while taking care of my cats. They communicated with me at every step of the process and made sure they were doing everything to reduce the stress on my cats while they stayed in the hospital. They even set up individual TVs for my cats to watch bird videos on YouTube. I felt so much better knowing they were in good hands while they got better.

When I first arrived at VEG I was immediately taken aback by how different it was, it was nothing like I expected; an open layout filled with young professionals-a new idea much different from the established norms but in hindsight a very welcome one. Nothing is obfuscated behind closed doors, and every team member on the floor is there to share in their expertise and in their effort towards the goal of making the animals brought to them feel calm, comfortable and well cared for. Dr. Fifer did a wonderful job for our dog Taz, they met the challenge of our dog's serious medical emergency with great skill, care and professionalism; apart from performing a highly successful operation, they went over every bullet point detail of the operation itself and other potential issues to follow expediently with my family and I both beforehand and afterwards. Thanks to their experience we were able to make an informed decision, and thanks to the skill and hospitality they and the rest of the staff that night (2-16-25) exhibited, Taz is still with us today and that means the world to us. Thank you all!!

Had to take my ferret here last night. Very nice staff that truly cared about the well-being of my ferret. We were able to be a part of his treatment throughout all of it. Only thing I didn’t agree with was that the record said my ferret was overweight, I have had ferrets for a long time and my family vet also agrees that my ferret is just a larger bred ferret. Other than that, I agreed with all of what they were suggesting treatment wise and they did not over price me for his care. I appreciate the staff that helped us. I definitely will be going back to VEG for any of my middle-of-the-night animal ER needs. Thoroughly impressed even though this location only opened 6 weeks ago. It is off to a great start and will be recommending VEG to others. Best animal ER experience so far. Thank you. 🖤
