On September 24, 2025, my dog Luna became VEG’s very first hospitalized patient on opening day. We had initially gone to her oncology specialist, which also handles emergencies, but were turned away due to a critical case arriving. The estimated wait was 2–3 hours, despite an empty lobby. Working in the veterinary field myself, I had already heard a lot of chatter about VEG and their open floor concept, so I decided to stop by. I’m glad I did — the experience truly exceeded my expectations. The team was eager and excited to help, and just as focused on making sure Luna and I were comfortable. Luna was hospitalized overnight, and through the entire process I was impressed with how the open floor model functions. From my perspective in the field, I believe this approach really bridges a gap

Incredibly caring staff. Knowledgeable vets. Most emergency vet visits are the most emotional times with our pets. I was a mess and always felt compassion. They even offered me a hug. They kept my cat, Meems overnight and were thrilled I had a blanket for her. They wanted her to have a piece of home with her to be overnight. Highly recommend!

Our 5.5 month old kitten “Wink” had to go to VEG because he stopped eating and threw up. Although the experience was very stressful, the amazing staff at VEG made an otherwise crazy night so much more manageable. We were attended to promptly and only ever separated me from my kitten when he went for an X-ray. Overall amazing team, and great care. Only downsides were cost (which makes since cause it’s an ER) and the open plan could have done with a few more rooms for when they are needed.

I can't tell you how happy I was to have the staff take such great care of me and my cat when I came in! Truly professional and highly caring people the entire 8 hours I ended up being there! I was quite freaking out coming home from work around midnight to my cat meowing in extreme pain, and seeing her drag her rear leg. I had no idea what had happened or what was going on. I had called ahead to let them know I would be coming by. When I got there, they immediately got to work diagnosing and doing everything they could to make my cat feel comfortable and tell me what was going on. Within about 10 minutes, she was diagnosed with saddle thrombus. Among other complications, such as pneumothorax and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy we found out. Things were just really not looking good unfortuna

Came in with a cockatiel that was feeling very unwell. I was very pleasantly surprised they were able to bring us into a private room right away that had a brooder inside so that my bird and I could see each other and avoid any loud dogs or people stressing us both out further. Staff were kind and respectful and worked with me to determine the best steps forward including what they could offer for supportive care and what would likely be more cost effective to do at the avian vet office in the morning. The place is very clean and I felt that our needs were met with enthusiasm. I am very thankful for the grace they gave me in a time of great distress and will return here again if I need to.
