Dr. Jonathan Grindley

Medical Director

Baruch College; Tufts University- Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine

One reason Dr. Grindley says he loves helping pets: they can't speak for themselves! So, he takes great pride in supporting the human/animal bond. He’s also a fan of how VEG disrupts the industry and challenges the way we approach veterinary medicine, and of course, the great workplace culture. He’s the happy owner of an English Pointer.

Sometimes it’s obvious when your pet needs immediate help. But sometimes they just seem “off.” That’s where our emergency vets in Brooklyn 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.

Our Brooklyn pet emergency hospital is conveniently located between Avenue J and Flatbush Ave., within minutes of Bensonhurst, Flatbush, Prospect Park, and Sheepshead Bay.

Parking for VEG Ralph Ave. right in front of the hospital. If you need assistance getting your pet into the hospital, call ahead—one of our VEGgies will meet you at the door. Your pet will receive urgent vet care and you never have to leave their side.

I brought my Fiona in last week for an emergency. She had a really upset stomach, and I was so worried about her., She’s only two years old, my little girl. They treated us so well at Vet Emergency Group! They were fast and efficient.. The veterinarians were so sweet and kind. They quickly diagnosed the problem and now it will be later. My Fiona is all good thank God to them. I am forever grateful! I would absolutely bring her in again if I ever needed! Thanks guys! You were amazing

DO IT COME HERE FOR YOUR PETS!!! LOVE THIS VET GROUP!! Service is just absolutely amazing staff is so wonderful friendly and inviting! We had a emergency with our golden retriever Woody :( so we got over to VEG after calling them to ask what we can do and while we were on our way they were taking all precautions and telling us everything we needed to know and do. Wonderful place very nice area for your pets and seating and you are always with your animal the entire time and they comfort you and bring you snacks coffee hot chocolate etc. prices for everything they had done for us are very reasonable and honestly not expensive especially for emergencies! Love everyone here absolutely amazing place highly recommend!

First of all me and my fur baby say Thank You so so much to the VEG team, they were amazing!! Unfortunately my cat went through a scary situation and I was terrified/ worried for him. I rushed him to the VEG Ralph team and they immediately attended him, they were super sweet and attentive also very comforting especially in such scary time. They also made sure me and my pet felt comfortable. Throughout the process of any exam or fluids or injections that were given to him they always made sure to inform me what they were for and how it would help him. I am happy to say my fur baby is doing okay now. I am very grateful to this amazing team. Mucca is also very thankful for caring for him, in such scary event ♥️
