VEG Philadelphia 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 brought my cat in at 1am for vomiting and the team took GREAT care of her. After paying for testing, I expressed difficulties in paying for her surgery but Dr. Chatterjee took the time to walk me through all my options. This is a team that cares for both animals and people. I would choose them to take care of Priscilla every time in every life time. Thank you VEG!

This place has my heart!! They were so kind and informative, I saw them at 2am and they were so patient. Not only were they very gentle with my cat, and attentive but they were also comforting with me well. Their night staff is spectacular honestly, and I DO NOT leave reviews often. I just had to say something…they were so helpful, even when it came down to payments etc…I do not have the words to thank you. For a first time pet owner…these people were more than helpful, they have big hearts. At least the ones who saw me! Haha, but yeah definitely highly recommend. Thank you VEG on Walnut ❤️ from me and RP.

I brought my puppy in last month for vomiting blood and diarrhea. After imaging it showed he ate a diaper and needed to have surgery. I was at a lost I could afford to pay for my little puppers surgery and I tried everything to come up with the money and it wasn’t enough. The hospital helped me with the cost to save my pups life. After surgery I called them several times with in those first few days and each time they were patient with me and empathized with me. They treated my baby as their own. I am go grateful for them.
