This place is incredible. All the staff is amazing and compassionate and the communication was incredible. They allow you to visit your sick pet any time and they gave me updates. I just moved here and my cat got sick and he is actually a nightmare at the vet and they were so good at handling him with love and patience and gave him amazing medical care while weighing pros and cons of a lot of decisions.

I brought my dog in after he got into a large amount of bakers chocolate. All of the staff and doctors were extremely kind, knowledgeable, and transparent. They gave my dog fantastic care and clearly laid out the options I had for his care, and the prices. I didn’t feel pressured to make any decisions and felt confident that they had handled his case with the utmost diligence. I am extremely thankful for the fast and effective care that my dog received at VEG Boulder. 6/5 stars

The team at VEG and Dr. Brown are simply saints. I have very seldomly needed to use emergency veterinary services in my lifetime of owning pets, but the few times that I have I have never received such compassionate and timely care the way that I saw today at VEG. Dr. Brown was incredibly professional, confident and Quickly made me feel like we had found the best hands to help! She made us so comfortable and was giving Much hope from the very beginning. Today I helped a young lady from a community Facebook page in Lafayette With a ride to help her kitty who was injured by an ex-boyfriend. We were turned away by multiple places before we found VEG. We called and explained the circumstances as soon as I pulled up the door is open And there were technicians there with open arms, greeting us rushing us in to assist. They immediately provided care. My eyes truly welled up with tears as this team helped this young lady and provided such top-notch treatment to the cat. They helped Her with a payment that fit her needs as best as they could, and Offered help with a ride home for the young lady I was helping so I could get to my daughter at the school. It was truly a situation of a group of strangers coming together to get this Sweet animal the care and compassion that She so deeply deserved in her dark hour. The whole experience was so uplifting for me and I’m so thankful for VEG. I know little miss kitty Gotham and her owner Are overwhelmed with gratitude as well. If you find yourself in an emergency situation, do not hesitate to rush to VEG.
