VEG in Clearwater is amazing. Dr. Fleur Jones was so good with our little guy. I love that you can stay with your pet throughout the whole time they are there. We brought his dog bed so he was more comfortable. Our dog was there for 24 hours. No one wants to have to go to the ER with their pet but the amazing staff makes you so comfortable it calms your nerves. Highly recommend VEG

Took my dog to VEG today, discovered a lump and was deeply concerned given his history with MCT at just 9 months old, but thankfully Dr. Sharp and the team were absolutely fantastic. They welcomed us with warm smiles and exceptional professionalism. Dr. Sharp conducted a thorough examination of Pluto, and the vet technicians were truly outstanding. If I could give more than 5 stars, I certainly would. This place is genuinely a beacon of hope and exceptional care.

My experience at VEG in Clearwater was far beyond expectations. I really enjoyed the openness of the facility and the staff was exceptional. I’d like thank Angie for a friendly and smooth check in, Cady and Jes for keeping me informed and comfortable to leave my dog with them over night and Dr. Soyka and Dr. Jones for their expertise in helping my dog to feel better. If I ever have to use emergency services again I’ll be returning here for sure. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
