It was the evening of Easter when our dog felt terribly sick. He was retching and in pain. Our family brainstormed and instantly knew what was happening. My niece who is a Vet called VEG and told them that we were on our way so they were prepared. When a dog is bloated, time is critical. When we arrived the staff at VEG instantly put our dog's needs first. Within hours he was on the operating table. They saved his life and we are forever grateful. They wear their hearts on their sleeves. They care for their patients and customers. We had such a positive experience and would recommend anyone to go to VEG in Clifton.

Staff is exceptional. We had to bring our little girl in and she ended up having to stay 36 hours. She has never been left alone before and isn’t great with strangers. By the end of her stay she was way more comfortable with everyone there. My girl is finally back home and doing well. Can’t thank the staff enough for the care, attention, and love they gave zoey.

Although my first impression and experience at VEG was a heartbreaking and painful one, I am seriously impressed by the staff and their care for our pets and us. We sadly had to make the decision to put our beloved cat down and the care and treatment we received was beyond thoughtful. We were given as much time as we needed and a private room with no harsh lighting, instead some fairy lights, a cozy couch and anything we may need. The doctor and her staff were incredible. We were very happy that every step of the procedure was explained to us and that things were moving at our pace, no rushing, no stress. We got paw and nose prints, fur clippings and a private cremation for him, which was overall reasonably priced as it is still an emergency clinic. We were able to pick up his urn after just a couple of days. Thank you again to everyone at VEG, though I hope I won’t have to come back, I would always choose to go to VEG to get professional care for my pets.
