VEG Emergency Vet
seattle, Washington

"My chihuahua, bless his tiny, easily-stressed heart, views veterinary clinics as the eighth circle of doggy hell. His pre-vet routine usually involves frantic pacing, soulful whimpers, and a truly Oscar-worthy performance of digestive upset in the most public area possible. So, when we had a mini-crisis on the evening of April 8th, my expectations for a smooth clinic visit were lower than a limbo champion. Enter this 24-hour emergency haven. I braced myself for the usual lobby theatrics, but something was… I genuinely felt like my little drama llama was in the best possible hands.. ? Dare I say… calm-ish? The staff were like animal whisperers! They cooed, they reassured, they probably sprinkled magic calming dust (I wouldn't be surprised). Whatever they did, it worked. My dog went from trembling terror to cautiously curious in record time. And Dr. Rocco? Forget the stethoscope; this man wields pure compassion. He was fantastic – knowledgeable, (in a reassuring way, not a "your dog's weird" way), and genuinely seemed to care about my furry little dramatic chihuahua. It's so obvious that everyone at this clinic is in it for the love of the creatures. They're like the Avengers of the animal world, swooping in to save the day (and our sanity). Seriously, the only downside is that they don't do regular vet care! My dog might actually enjoy going to the vet for once So, to the amazing team, and especially to the magnificent Dr. Rocco: thank you! You turned a potentially stressful night into a surprisingly pleasant evening (and thankfully, no lobby poops!) You're all rockstars, and Dr. Rocco? “You're the Mic Jagger of emergency vets."

I’m a Rover sitter and recently had an emergency with a 19-year-old cat I was caring for. I called early in the morning, and the vet answered right away. When we arrived at the clinic, there was no wait—Ellie was seen immediately. Saara and the entire team took amazing care of both Ellie and me! I was completely exhausted after being up all night caring for her, and Saara went above and beyond—she moved us to a private suite and even pulled out a bed so I could rest. After I fell asleep, they gently took Ellie to make sure she was cared for while I got some much-needed sleep. I was absolutely blown away by the kindness and level of care at this clinic. Highly recommend!

I just wanted to say thank you so much to the Interbay VEG team, special kudos to the staff on the morning of March 16th and Dr. Nee. They were so gracious and kind to me as I was having my last moments with my precious baby girl Cas. They made sure to keep her as comfortable as possible and there were so supportive and comforting to me as well. Cas was my first pup and she lived a good 15 years and though it is so extremely hard to say goodbye, I will forever be thankful that your team made it a bit easier. Thank you again so much Dr. Nee.
