    Walk In L.

    We had a scary emergency with our boy Teddy and didn't even know where to begin or who to call when our vet wasn't open. We called in the late evening on a Saturday night and drove almost an hour to find such caring compassionate people at Pet Emergency Center. We had a good wait of course bc it was after a holiday but we waited comfortably in our car where they offered to come and get us when it was time. They let us know ahead of costs so we wouldn't be shocked. The compassion and care by the incredible intake nurse was so needed after our last experience with a vet was so heartbreaking, we left without our dog. We are grateful for this incredible team and express our deepest of thanks!

    Back in the Spring my dog needed to be seen for an emergency and I must have forgotten to review them. Well, after saving my cat last week I had to make sure I did. I took my cat in after showing symptoms of ingesting something he shouldn't have. I called every vet in the area with no luck for an appointment. Shortly after 1am, my husband and I made a 45 minute drive to get help for our cat. His heart rate was slow, he was cold, and was clearly dehydrated. My husband walked in and got him checked in. It wasn't very busy so it wasn't long before our vet technician came to check him out. She was super nice and straight forward, I loved that! We discussed treatment options with the vet after describing symptoms and her professional observation. Also, disclosing our recent emergency holiday travel expenses really threw off our budget. We would treat the symptoms. We watched for any warnings it was something worse. We are so happy we did, our cat was resting for the next 48-72 hours but was way more alert. As of today, he is standing on his couch swatting at his dog brother as he walks by. He is eating, drinking, and using his litter box. Thank you guys so much for helping my cat! You all honestly helped calm me down before receiving more devastating news just hours after getting home. I have no words.

    See all

    If you have to go to the emergency vet, this is the place. My husband and I loved that they allow…read moreyou to stay with your pet throughout the process. We went on a Sunday afternoon because our dog got stung by a bee and was having an allergic reaction. They were very quick to help us, all of the vets and techs were warm and understanding, along with walking us through each step. The bill ended up being a lot cheaper than what we expected, and they gave us info about what we could get at a pet store for a lower price for follow up care. That was so appreciated! We've recommended them to all the pet parents we know in the area. Hopefully we won't need to visit them again, but if we do, we know our pet will be in great hands.

    the last thing a pet owner wants ahead of a long weekend is a trip to the emergency vet; actually,…read moremost pet owners i know aren't excited about emergency vet visits at any time of year but when they happen and you want to make sure your fur baby is ok, you go, regardless of the costs involved. late last week i made the decision to take my dog in with an issue i've seen him have before but this time all my efforts didn't curb the symptoms and i decided i'd get a jump on what promised to be a full emergency waiting room ahead of fireworks and loud noises. the closest VEG location to me is in interbay but when i called they suggested i go to lynwood, federal way or redmond because they were already slammed. so up to lynnwood we went and when we walked in, i got an introduction into how differently VEG locations handle things. each pet/human is greeted and triaged. the open concept of seeing everyone working and every other patient out in the open may be different from what you're used to but it demystifies things for sure. you're not left wondering what's happening to your pet behind closed doors. and in an emergency when your cortisol levels may already be elevated this is most likely a welcome difference in protocol. we were ushered to an alcove with a couch and someone came over with a laptop to get details and reasons why we were there. minutes later a tech and vet arrived and we talked to them. she patiently listened and said she'd develop a plan for how to investigate what was going on and in retrospect i appreciated that she didn't go straight to imaging and other costly testing but decided to go the route of labs/biochemical diagnoses to rule things like pancreatitis out. once she left us, i got a text message with a quote and link to pre pay. having done that, we waited a bit longer and another pair of staff arrived to draw blood. we were told it would take about 30min for lab results. we waited, we watched the staff moving around to different patients with different needs levels. eventually the vet returned with lab results and recommendations before another tech came with discharge papers and a goodie bag of sample gastrointestinal foods. all told, we were there about two hours and i was highly impressed with the level of service and care we received. things were clean, the staff all seemed positive about the company they are employed by and they genuinely care about delivering a high standard of care to everyone who walked through the doors, human and animal. one thing i appreciated was that the vet mentioned that i could call or email with follow up questions and also mentioned that if we needed to return, we could go to the interbay location because all locations are connected and would have access to his file/treatments. yesterday we received a follow up text to check on him, also encouraging calls if we have questions. VEG seems to have emergency veterinary service and human customer service dialed in. it's hard to know who and where to go in an emergency but i'd carried the VEG name and number in my phone for years without having a need to use them; now i can say that i'd recommend them based on our experience this past weekend.

Coastal rivers were the attending clinic under vet de jong. 2 days ago we did a checkup as the operation was unsuccessful for the cherry eye under vet de jong's care. Once at the appt we started to ask questions like Any ordinary furry puppy owner would ask: 1. Why did the operation fail? 2. What in your experience as a vet could be done? 3. Have you done many surgeries of this type ? 4. What is your vet experience? 5. If operated again would you seek out a senior vet's help for the procedure? .... Guess what? This is what she answered: "None of your business!!!!!" The vet actually said it's not our concern!!!! She knew we were fostering and were to adopt and Yes to the contrary it is our business to learn more about future procedures and her knowledge of this type of serious operation. After doing more research we found advice from actual animal eye surgeons called othmatology vets...... yes there are actually 2-3 clinics in the lower mainland that does this specialty and this vet was not a specialist so we wanted to know her skills. She lost it got triggered form us asking her serious questions and actually kidnapped the dog right from our hands and ran into the back. My wife and I didn't know what to do we were stunned! We found out after 10 mins and from this horrible vet De Jong that she called the spca and they must have told her to return the dog to us! Please avoid this Vet she treated us awfully and could not Handle us asking detailed questions about the surgery in the future. Why did she do this? Why was she so triggered? Being a young vet concludes that she Definitely needs more training and for sure more counselling and we will never ever go back to this clinic. Horrible!

    I took my 8 year old Bernese Mountain Dog to the Seattle VEG clinic. She was not eating and…read morelethargic. I was concerned that this might be an end-of-life issue. We've had three Berners and know they have a short life span. The team of people at the Seattle VEG clinic were terrific. They performed many clinical tests including ultrasound and x-ray imaging. Unfortunately, the results confirmed my concerns. She had advanced cancer in multiple organs. I took her home from VEG and made arrangements to have her put down the next day at another clinic recommended by the VEG team. While the outcome was sad, the people at VEG were very competent and provided a clear plan of action for me.

    I want to preface this by stating that our visit was EXPENSIVE--and I did expect a big bill for an…read moreER visit for my dog... but I just want to be up front about the fact that it was expensive. But the care was amazing. My dog and I took a trip to VEG earlier this week after she started vomiting in the early hours of the morning, and then by the mid-afternoon was vomiting blood clots. We called our normal vet, and they couldn't get us in--so they advised I take her down to VEG. There was some construction doing on during our visit, but they managed it really well. There were some areas that were a little cramped and awkward, but they handled it like champs, and it was still clean and organized. From the moment we walked in, the staff were calm and kind (in a moment where I needed some calm and kindness). I was super scared and struggling to speak coherently, but they calmly asked all the questions and reassured me I was doing the right thing. My dog can be SPICY with strangers, and especially men. I let them know this when we walked in, and I had brought our muzzle (which they thanked me for). There was only one male staff member present while we were there, but they swapped him for a female staff member, and he kept his distance. With the exception of X-rays, they did the WHOLE appointment with my dog sitting by my side, her head in my lap. (And even during X-rays, I could've watched through the window... but I just really needed to pee so I didn't... and the restroom was clean ) They did bloodwork, an ultrasound, and some other evaluation/tests all with her head in my lap, and me holding her still before she was sedated. They were kind, calm, and explained everything as we went. When I expressed concern over her breathing pattern after sedation, they hooked her up to a heart monitor. The whole appointment happened on a couch in a common area, and it felt safe and comfortable the whole time. They walked me through test results, the meds we went home with, and next steps and things to watch for. All-in-all, we were there for about 4 hours--and they managed me and my fear/anxiety just as well as they managed the situation with my dog. They even offered something to drink and a snack. If my dog has another emergency, I won't hesitate to go back.
