VEG ER for Pets

Last week was a scary week for our family.. Our 10-year-old lab, Digger, needed emergency intestinal surgery after ingesting four pairs of underwear (yes… FOUR 😭). I, along with my family want to publicly thank the incredible team at VEG for the way you cared for Digger, and for the way you cared for me and my family through it all. From my endless tears and heartbreak to every decision and "what happens next," you walked me through step-by-step with patience, compassion, and true professionalism. With his age and a very difficult healing process, we’ve had countless visits and still have ongoing ones… and not once did you make me feel like I was being "too much" or overdramatic. You understood that Digger is family, and you treated him like he was your family too. And as you can see by the picture, his brother Dallas is worried about his big brother too. ❤️ The love and worry doesn’t just stop with the humans in our family, our pups feel it too. We’re still not completely out of the woods, but I can’t put into words how grateful I am for your care, your kindness, and the compassion you show every single day. Thank you, VEG, from the bottom of our hearts. ❤️🐾 God Bless, Marla and Doug Stilwill

We brought Pepper to VEG ER for Pets at 2AM unsure that she would survive until daylight. The immediate care and concern that we received was exceptional. We were told what was happening and what needed to happen. We brought Pepper home after a 3 night stay. She’s acting as though nothing was ever wrong, no trauma at all from all that needed to be done to bring her back from almost dying. There is definitely more that we will need to do for her continued care which was carefully explained. I would highly recommend bringing your pet here should an emergency happen and your primary vet is unavailable. ❤️🐾

I’m so thankful this place exists and that there are people who love what they do here. We had an unexpected emergency today while I was dog sitting my daughter’s weiner dog Paquita. She got into a bad of Ghirardelli chocolate chips. Poison to dogs. We were in another state far from home in a small town. We drove 25 minutes to the closets vet ER. We were first in and then four more pets with emergencies followed. The staff greeted us and everyone after so graciously and comforting. They offered us snacks and drinks. Gave my pet a warm towel. Treatment was prompt and she is doing well. Luckily we got her there quickly they induced vomit and she expelled everything including what a staff member called "bones" that were actually French fries she also got into (oy vey don’t ask 🥴). Pricing was very affordable for an emergency. Thankful for that as well. I gave 4 stars because I had to request them to immediately give her the medicine to induce vomiting immediately. I felt that the more time that passed the more potential for worse outcome. But once I asked they got right to it and it was successful. I am forever grateful to this place and the staff.

I felt more compassion in this room than I have when I go an actual ER for humans. That is a quality we need back at all levels of humanity. This group of people should be proud of what they do not just for the animals but for the humans too. They were often showing empathy for the situation more than the owners could appreciate. I can’t say enough. I am grateful for them all

Truly the best team of caregivers I’ve ever met (for humans or animals!). My Boston had an obstruction, and we traveled 3.5 hours in the middle of the night to get her there. I’m so thankful I chose them - they answered my questions over the phone with kindness prior to coming in, were prepared to see her when we arrived, and treated her with the highest amount of care and expertise. We were there for the better part of 48 hours, which included emergency surgery. They have rooms where you can be with your dog/cat and wait while treatment is completed. They were very transparent throughout the process, and allowed me to be with my pup through every step outside of the OR (they did invite me to watch from the window outside). I was very concerned she would not make it through the surgery based on the obstruction, and they gave me time to be with her prior in case it was to say goodbye. They did an incredible job with her surgery, we’re 6 months past and she’s doing well. Without their selflessness and care, I wouldn’t have her and I will forever be thankful for them. ❤️

I cannot say enough good things about this place. For one, everyone was so kind, empathetic, understanding, and responsive during an extremely stressful time. Additionally, the fact that you can be with your pet the whole time is an absolute game changer in managing stress. I have been to pet hospitals previously where they take your animal in the back and you are not a part of their care at all. As a result, the pet is more stressed and so are you. Not here, I was invited to be next to my pet every step of the way. I was able to hold her and comfort her myself which helped both of us. The people, the level and standard of care, the facilities are truly unmatched to any of my previous experiences at emergency vets. I am so grateful to them. While I hope I don’t have to go back any time soon, they will be my first choice and first recommendation to friends and family. I cannot thank them enough, and i know our kitten Murphy is grateful too!

I cannot express how grateful and thankful we are for the entire team. Jax needed emergency care this weekend and from the moment we walked in, every single staff member treated us with compassion, urgency and kindness. The front desk team was calm and reassuring and the veterinary staff took the time to explain everything that was happening, what our options were and what to expect next. There was no sticker shock either because they presented us with the estimate beforehand The doctors and technicians not only provided exceptional medical care, but they also showed genuine care and concern for Jax as well as for us. We never felt rushed, dismissed, or left wondering what was going on — they communicated with us every step of the way. Because of their quick action, expertise and dedication, Jax is home with us today and we are beyond grateful. Thank you to the entire team for doing the work you do every day. You made an incredibly difficult situation feel manageable and we will never forget the care and compassion you showed our family. Special shout out to Dr. Paulina Mohapp ❤️🐾
