Our vet referred us here after our dog was bitten by another dog. We were able to be seen immediately and I am so appreciative of the kindness and empathy we received from everyone on staff - from the folks at the front desk to the techs/vet. Everyone was wonderful with my kids who were upset - letting them see him before we left, explaining what was happening, and giving them snacks. We were leaving a bloody mess in our wake and they eased my anxiety/were able to cheer me up as they cleaned. I also appreciated how transparent they were about cost. If I need emergency care in the future, I would not hesitate to bring my pets here.

My dog got into the trash on Easter Sunday and ate chicken bones (among other things). In a panic I took him to Urgent Vet that was able to confirm he ate bones but was not comfortable inducing vomit and referred me to this hospital in case it would require scoping. The wonderful vets here had a full staff on a holiday and made this a stress free experience. They felt comfortable to induce vomiting and took X-rays to confirm everything was taken out. They were very clear and confident through the entire process taking very good care of my beloved pet. I highly recommend this place for any emergency as I saw their operation first hand including treatment of other pets. My dog is now home safe with me and I would like to express my upmost gratitude towards everyone that helped.

My cat had an emergency after my normal vet's hours and they recommended I take him here. The staff was amazing and despite having a very rough night having to let my old boy cross the rainbow bridge, it was handled with incredible care and grace. They were timely, thorough with his diagnosis, very helpful in helping me make the best choice for my cat's quality of life, and sympathetic with my highly emotional state. I'm not sure when I'll get another pet, but these wonderful people made a customer for life. Thank you to the VEG staff and RIP to my sweet boy, Alexander ♥️
