This wild boy's favorite midnight snack is socks. Last night, he was successful in procuring a pair and bought himself a trip to VEG. The entire team was kind, well-organized, and efficient. Jackson got lots of love, threw up, and was back in the car headed home in less than an hour. Special shoutout to the team members who held his hair back (his floppy ears), and also wiped his paws when he stumbled in his own vomit. He's a sloppy dude. 10/10 when it comes to emergency vet experiences.

I’m so grateful for the staff here! They took amazing care of my boy and helped put my wife and I at ease during a stressful time. Above and beyond barely begins to describe their knowledge and efforts. We were provided with several options for treatment, clear explanations of the options, and clear and upfront pricing. The layout of the ER makes it so you aren’t separated from your pet and can observe the exams, and treatments. We had to leave our dog with them over night, which is not something we wanted to do because he can be reactive and very anxious in shelters/boarding situations but Dr. Brown took fantastic care of him until he was released in the morning. Something that totally caught is off guard was they had already refunded part of our deposit for an intervention that didn’t work when we went to settle our bill. I can’t recommend VEG highly enough for emergency care of your pets.

We're so grateful for Veterinary Emergency Group! Our dog had a pretty good nail injury that had him bleeding for hours on end and we could not get it to stop after trying EVERYTHING. VEG got us right in and were so kind and friendly with us and our puppy. We felt terrible after quicking him and I was in tears and Shay was so sweet and made me a nice herbal tea for the road while Matisse and Dr. Basilotta took care of our boy. We got a nice wrap for him for a day to get the bleeding to quit and we were on our way. We were met with kindness and care from everyone on staff and never felt judged for bringing in our boy for something as "small" as a broken nail. I highly, highly recommend coming here for any of your animal needs.
