On 4/22, we adopted two cats from OC Animal Shelter. On the night of 4/25, when we came home, we discovered that one of the cats, who had recently been spayed, had opened stitches at the surgical site. It appeared the wound had not been properly secured, and it was only held together by a staple. We were shocked and very worried. It was late at night, and we called multiple places trying to find help, but no one was available. We were then recommended VEG, with the reassurance that they do not turn away emergency cases, so we rushed in. From the moment we arrived, we were immediately taken in and cared for by Dr. Quynh Nguyen and the staff on duty. Dr. Nguyen showed exceptional compassion, empathy, and professionalism throughout the entire visit. We explained that we had just rescued these cats and were also facing financial limitations. She treated the situation with understanding and worked with us to make sure our cat received the care she urgently needed. We are deeply grateful for the kindness and support we received that night. It made a very stressful situation so much easier to get through. We would not hesitate to return to VEG in an emergency and highly recommend Dr. Nguyen and the entire team. read more

VEG ER for Pets - Emergency Pet Hospital Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

I've been here for a couple of emergencies and most recently for my dog, who became very ill and at the end of life. I can't tell you enough how great the staff is especially Dr Nikki who is the overnight doctor. They are very compassionate, understanding and patient. Dr. Nicki is very honest and upfront and explains things clearly and is not pushy about what to do. I also feel like the pricing is very fair given that it's an ER vet. They also explained cost before they do anything which is really nice. I definitely would recommend bringing your sick pet here. read more

VEG is known for they're open floor concept, and it was interesting to see it in action. I called ahead to see if there was an exotic doctor on staff, if you have birds/reptiles/small animals it's always good to check before you head over. They were able to prep an oxygen chamber so that by the time we got there, my bird was able to be put in oxygen right away. Like any ER, they will triage your pet and take critical cases first. Unlike a normal ER, you stay with your pet the entire time. This could be uncomfortable for people that are squeamish when seeing blood, or if there's a dying patient that comes in while you're sitting in the lobby, because you are front row to every case that walks in. I do think this concept is good for owners that are curious about the behind the scenes, and for those who want to stay with their pet during their time of need. While not as expensive as some, it is still an emergency hospital so the cost is going to be more than a general practice. As of 2026, the exam fee was $195. Also, bring your phone! All payments are done through links sent via text, so make sure you're prepared. My pet had to be hospitalized and everyone was very kind during her stay. Another great thing about this place is that if your pet needs to be hospitalized, you can stay with them the entire time. The staff even goes around with snacks! Overall, I would highly recommend this particular VEG because the staff was very kind and knowledgeable during my time of need. read more

I can't thank this clinic enough for what they did for my chinchilla in the middle of the night. My little chinchilla had an emergency, and every minute mattered. The entire team was incredibly kind, compassionate, and professional from the moment I called. The front desk staff was so patient and helpful, making sure we could come in right away. The veterinary assistant was amazing. She handled my very nervous chinchilla so gently and calmly that he actually relaxed in her hands, which completely surprised me. You could tell she truly cared about animals. The doctor was absolutely incredible. She immediately recognized the problem, treated my chinchilla with such confidence and care, and resolved everything within minutes. That level of compassion is something I will never forget. Thank you to the entire team for treating my little chinchilla with so much love and respect. You turned a terrifying night into one filled with relief and gratitude. I would trust this clinic with my pets anytime and recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional veterinary care read more

Wonderful staff but did not know how to properly assess or help me with my bearded dragon. Wouldn't help unless i went through $1200 worth of test. I took him to a vet in yorba Linda and analyzed him and saw him for $85. Properly diagnosed him after 5 minutes and gave me multiple options to proceed. I was at the emergency vet for 4 hours with no answers and $600 lost just to be misdiagnosed and sending me home with no progress. It's completely ridiculous to charge someone $200 for an exam when NO information is found through a physical exam. In my opinion - you should not offer care for exotic animals when you cannot properly assess their physical state and know a feasible way to proceed. I felt like the whole time they were almost avoiding me because they didn't have an option B or C with how we can proceed. Yorba Linda vet is Greek and association and they are more than equipped to deal with exotic pets. They are very knowledgeable and won't make you spend thousands on unnecessary tests that will drain your bank and torture your animals for $. (714)463-1190 read more

I previously visited the Anaheim Hills VEG clinic in 2024 when a good Samaritan dropped off my missing cat there. My experience then was very positive and I'd said I wouldn't hesitate to use them for my pet emergency needs if I were ever in the area. Over a year later, in early January 2026, I brought my 14 year old terrier-mix to this VEG clinic that had just opened up and is much closer to my home. My dog had kidney failure along with a heart murmur, and after a day of treatment, considerations for his quality of life, and long, difficult discussions with my family, we decided it was best to let him go. The two vets that treated him were very patient and thoroughly explained all options. Being able to spend time with him in one of the sleeper rooms during his treatment was a huge plus. I'm still trying to adjust to life without him, but I'm so grateful I could give him the peaceful end he deserved with the kind and compassionate vets and techs at VEG. read more

I've already reviewed once so no idea if this counts but I hope it does. I have too many animals and sadly we had another issue. I came in and they remembered me and Lukin. Fixed him all up.

Called last night to let them know we were on our way with our Guinea pig and they were ready for us the moment we got there. Unfortunately my little Wall-E was too far gone and we had to let him go. I obviously broke down. The staff was so professional and well spoken during this traumatic event. Made me feel at ease and didn't judge me at all. Thet were very informative and patient with us. Everything was done on our time no rushing or pushing to get it done. They were so careful and loving with him. Would recommend this location to anyone. read more

It's been almost 5 months since our sweet Soju Snax left us, and I can finally write this review without balling, kind of. I wanted to say thank you to VEG ER for taking care of Soju. She was in such great hands with Dr. Jeff . He is extremely knowledgeable, compassionate, and understanding. The team is great as well. Soju unexpectedly didn't eat her breakfast, and I immediately knew something was wrong. Dr. Jeff kindly explained that Soju would be in immense pain and he didn't believe she would make it until the morning. When I heard that it's best for her to be put down as soon as possible, I couldn't comprehend nor had the strength to leave her so suddenly, it was a shock. I definitely respected and understood Dr. Jeff's opinion, but I just couldn't leave her and selfishly took her back home to spend more time before returning her back. He was right. By around 5pm, our sweet Soju lost control of her bowels and we immediately came back to ease her pain. If this reaches even 1 person and helps them with this unbearable decision, I would say to PLEASE listen to your Vet when they say it is time. I know it's hard. I'm so grateful Dr. Jeff said it was ok to spend a couple hours to say goodbye but to bring her back. We got to spend a lot of extra time with her, but can't bare the thought that she was in pain in the end. I wish we brought her a bit sooner but selfishly I couldn't do it . The team was very kind when we came back and had a nice dimly lit comfortable space for us to say our final goodbyes while the procedure was done. We still keep the condolence card on our fridge as a sweet gesture and reminder that Soju was in such great hands. Honestly, thank you all so much read more

I'm writing this after a lot of thought. My intention is not to attack anyone, but to share our experience honestly so other pet parents can be informed. Our dog, Noni, was brought to VEG ER for Pets - Costa Mesa (2800 Harbor Blvd, Costa Mesa, CA) on February 1, 2026, after being diagnosed elsewhere with a severe urinary tract infection. When she arrived, she was still walking into the clinic on her own. Before a full evaluation was completed, she was given an initial injection of 10 mg of methadone (10 mg/mL injectable). According to the invoice, she ultimately received a total of 22.55 mg of methadone, with additional doses given within a short period of time. This effectively stacked the medication. After the first dose, she was never the same. She became extremely sedated, weak, and disoriented and never returned to her previous condition. During her stay, she was also given alfaxalone (190.2 mg) for sedation while attempting to place a catheter. Multiple attempts were unsuccessful. She woke up screaming on the table in obvious distress, which was heartbreaking to witness. Despite this, she continued to urinate on her own, showing her kidneys were still functioning. We were told her sodium levels were dangerously high, and over time they were brought down. To us, this felt like progress. However, these improvements never seemed to be viewed as wins, and from very early on, euthanasia was frequently presented as an option. Over the course of her hospitalization, we spent over $15,451.15, including medications, diagnostics, fluids, oxygen, and hospitalization (screenshots attached). We trusted every recommendation because we loved her and would have done anything for her. On our final day, while reviewing our invoice at the front desk, I overheard another client approach the doctor and say she was scared because her dog was overly sedated and asked that future doses be reduced to a quarter of what had been given. This deeply concerned me and reinforced the questions we already had. At one point, I asked whether Narcan might help reverse the effects of the pain medication, and staff acknowledged that it could potentially help. To my knowledge, it was never administered. Based on everything I have learned since, it feels as though much of her care became focused on trying to reverse the effects of a long-lasting overdose rather than addressing her original condition. We were left with many unanswered questions and very little closure. I respect how difficult veterinary medicine is, and I know mistakes are never intentional. However, I wish there had been more transparency, caution with medication dosing, and communication during one of the hardest times of my life. Noni walked into this clinic. She never walked out. She was family. She deserved the best care possible. We brought her home for a few hours and she was rushed back to another facility who said her heart rate was dropping and we had to put her down! Thank you Nurse Christine for your HOPE and empathy. Nalah aka Noni was only 6! read more

Exceptional care! After a scare in the middle of the night we brought our dog to VEG ER and from the moment we walked in the staff took care of him right away with tenderness. I thought I was going to lose my dog that night but thankfully they were able to stabilize him over the next few hours. Unfortunately my dog passed months after and when they found out they sent a card signed individually by all the staff. It was such a kind gesture especially when we only visited them once in the months prior. I HIGHLY recommend VEG ER for its outstanding knowledge, cleanliness, and compassionate care. read more

Unfortunately we found ourselves back at the ER but fortunately we had another great experience with the staff and the service! We had to wait for an ultrasound tech for a little over an hour so I asked to be in a little more private area for my pup to be less anxious and more comfortable so they gave us a room. Thanks to Dr Jaime for taking the time to explain everything and answering our questions.Thanks to the tech, Lylah, who helped with the treatment and was patient with my doggie, he was a little spicy and had to be muzzled for some of the treatment... Will always keep coming back for any future issues (hopefully we won't be back for a long time though!) read more

Amazing staff and facility. My old boy was on his final day and I wanted to be with him when he crossed over. Their staff was gentle and understanding.

I've been through the wringer for the past couple days with my cat who was having symptoms of a urinary blockage. They were able to get us in quickly late at night and take a look at him and express his bladder. They reassured me that he was going to be okay and we were in and out and on our way home extremely quickly. They've given me peace of mind to get through the night until I can take my cat to see his primary care later today read more

We were visiting from Arizona when our 18 yo cat had a stroke . It was after hours for most vets, but not this one. Everyone was so wonderful. Dr Nikki did an exam and we agreed she needed to be put down. ‍. They had a separate room for us to go in and we said our goodbyes. We were so grateful our Gidget didn't have to suffer by waiting till the next morning for a vet's office to open. I highly recommend this place. read more

I was super impressed by VEG. The tech, Bri I think, spoke to me pre-arrival and was waiting for us when we got there. she listened and gave us great care, and to our dog. The Doctor, N. Smith was exceptional!!. They were kind, thorough, and Dr. Smith gave me tremendous confidence in the care and treatment which is ongoing, he had pneumonia. The hospital is very clean, organized, and we loved the VEG open space treatment model where you are with your pet throughout treatment. It was a bit pricey and took time even in the middle of the night yet worth the slower pace given their attention to detail. Thank you Brianne snd Dr. Smith!!. read more

I cannot thank Dr. Jessika Jaime and the entire team at VEG Costa Mesa enough. This was my first experience ever at a vet, let alone a 24-hour emergency clinic, and I was incredibly nervous. My hen was in critical condition with a severe crop issue, and they treated her with such care and expertise. They were professional, kind, and made the whole process transparent. Finding an emergency vet that can handle avian/poultry cases is hard, but Dr. Jaime was amazing. If you're looking for a team that actually cares and moves fast in a crisis, this is the place! read more

The best experience at VEG ER. Unfortunately, I discovered this ER under stressful circumstances, but I'm so grateful I found them. What started as a normal day turned into one of the scariest moments. During our morning walk, something bit my baby, Reina. Within seconds, her breathing slowed, she went limp, had explosive diarrhea, and became unresponsive. My husband and I panicked and rushed her to the car. As he drove, I frantically searched for an emergency vet, and thank God, VEG was only four minutes from our home. I called ahead, and they were already prepared for Reina when we arrived. The team acted quickly with incredible focus, care, and compassion. My husband and I were both in shock, but he said this was one of the best veterinary experiences he has had in years. They treated Reina as if she were their own, quickly identifying what was wrong and keeping us informed every step of the way. They offered us coffee and a private room to stay with Reina while she was being treated. Dr. Zarday personally called later that day to check in on her, something that meant so much to us. Every vet tech we encountered was kind, attentive, and genuinely caring, constantly checking on Reina throughout her stay. Thanks to their prompt action and the right medications, she began improving almost immediately under their care. We are so thankful for everyone at VEG ER. Truly an amazing experience and we cannot thank you enough! read more

VEG ER in Costa Mesa made one of the hardest days in my life more manageable with less pain. My dog Mochi was in breathing distress one recent evening, and I took him to VEG ER, Costa Mesa. Dr. Regan, Mike Stewart, and other staff were compassionate and professional. Prior to our visit, Mochi was diagnosed with a breathing issue. His regular vet and a cardiologist took x-rays and conducted an ultrasound to view his heart and lungs and found no structural anomaly. However, there were cancerous cells in the fluid around his lung and the plan was to take him to an oncology specialist. I was able to make the decision to let him go despite the fact that Dr. Regan thought she could "stabilize" him for his oncology consult the following day at noon. By the time I took him to the ER, his quality of life was gone. VEG ER's private room was smartly equipped with human snacks, including kiss chocolates, to treat departing pets. An oxygen set up was available so Mochi could breathe easier. All steps were taken to soften the blow of losing a family member, and I was able to spend quality time with Mochi in his last moments. Dr. Regan was clear that she would not have agreed to euthanasia if she did not believe that Mochi was in serious distress. Mike Stewart, the nurse/technician, was patient and kind. I chose to take Mochi's remains to another location for cremation. His remains were carefully handled and clearly tagged. This gave me great comfort that he was handled with care and dignity, even after he had passed. The team at VEG ER made a very stressful and traumatic situation more manageable. Given the circumstances, it was the best possible outcome. Thank you so much for making an extremely difficult decision and experience as seamless as possible. I am grateful for your compassionate care and attention throughout this experience. read more

Professional staff is very attentive. Open even on holidays with affordable care. The ER is meticulously clean. What sets their ER apart from others is that the lobby is very open and chairs are comfortable. In addition to this, you can visibly see your pet being cared for in front of you which helps calm your nerves. The wait is very short, and the staff is very respectful. I would definitely return for my cats and other animals if an emergency arises and care is required. read more

It's been truly a sad day. Our bunny SteAven had to be put to rest. Just want to thank all the ladies at this location for their kindness, patience and love for animals.

We brought our snake (Brazilian rainbow boa) to the Veterinary Emergency Group on Harbor Blvd, and I can't say enough good things about this team. We truly thought he was dying (or already gone) halfway through a feeding, and they jumped into action right away. The staff was not only knowledgeable but incredibly kind and reassuring. They treated Romeo with the same level of care and compassion you'd hope for from a family doctor. They kept him warm in an incubator, monitored him closely, and even offered to observe him for an extra day just to make sure he was stable. When we picked him up, he was alert, strong, and back to his curious self. The entire team went above and beyond, explaining everything clearly and treating us with patience and empathy. You can tell they genuinely love what they do and care deeply about every animal that comes through their doors--no matter how big or small. I'm so grateful to the amazing staff at VEG for saving our little guy and for making such a stressful experience so comforting. Highly recommend this place to anyone with an emergency, exotic pet or otherwise. read more

Dr. Regan, Dr. Jaime, and all of the VEG staff took such great care of our cat, Yami! Despite not calling ahead and them being clearly busy, they started running diagnostics right away. They even gave us a private room so Yami could lay on a couch with us as we waited for test results. They also gave us snacks. At the end of the night/early morning, Dr. Regan thoroughly explained the test results and possible diagnoses that need to be confirmed/ruled out. She recommended we come back for an ultrasound later in the day, which we agreed to, and we went home for a few hours. Dr. Jaime called us shortly after shift change to schedule the ultrasound, and we were back around 12pm. After reviewing the results of the ultrasound and the previous day's diagnostics, Dr. Jaime shared the diagnosis (FIC), thoroughly explained how she arrived at the diagnosis, and reviewed the lifestyle changes she recommended we make for Yami. After speaking with her, we felt confident about how to move forward to prevent future flare-ups. We also appreciated her honesty about his prognosis, specifically that we should have a savings plan in the event he needs to be hospitalized overnight in the future. When we followed up with our primary vet, she commented on how thorough the discharge paperwork was. We are happy to report that after about a week, Yami was fully back to his happy, silly self! Thank you so much to everyone at VEG for your expertise and compassion during this challenging time. Although no one hopes to have to take their pets to the ER, all of our cats will 100% come to you for emergency care if the need arises. read more

I am very impressed with the doctor and staff. Everyone was very helpful. I would highly recommend.

A big benefit of VEG is that I was able to call ahead and talk to Dr. Regan about the issue I was seeing with my dogs' eyes to see if it was worth the trip. Once they confirmed it was, they asked a few questions to be prepared for our arrival, even taking the time to ensure they were our closest location when I informed them that we were a bit further away. In addition to the open concept, they have a locked door to help with safety so they are quick to greet you upon your arrival. Orsa checked us in and Dr. Regan joined which ensured a fast assessment for urgency before having to wait. Dr. Regan also reiterated parts of our phone conversation that proved they listened and made notes. The entire team was very nice and many cooed over my dog which always makes me feel proud but also helped us feel seen and acknowledged. Orsa continued to follow up with us, ensuring we made use of their snacks and beverages and were comfortable. Mike assisted us with my dog's assessment and was an absolute gem with their calm tone and demeanor; they helped keep us calm while other clients were being seen around us. They also got on the ground to meet my dog at his level which is always appreciated. I was privileged not to have an emergency case so I witnessed a steady flow of clients come in and saw that my welcome was the standard. They also took some clients to private rooms so it is nice to know that that option is available as needed. When a potential emergency came in, there was no delay in response as the team worked together to meet the client to assess. The other doctor that was working was quick to move in to check on the pets and evaluate the situation. When Dr. Regan followed up with us to go over the results and further assess, they met my dog on the ground as well. They too were calm and communicative, and when it was time to go over price and treatment options, the doctor sat next to me and gave me options with no pressure, just suggestions. Overall a really good experience and my dog is already doing better. Thank you to the entire team. read more

Last Saturday, our beloved Shepherd mix, Sam, became very ill. Our vet recommended we take him to VEG. Upon arrival, 2 staff members helped us get our 110 lb. dog out of the car and into the facility where he was placed on a blanketed mat next to a couch my wife and I could sit on to be near him and comfort him. The staff was on Sam immediately, checking his vitals and doing all one would expect in a human ER. I wish I could remember everyone's names, America, Amanda, Dr. Kahn, and others were amazing, trying to find out what was wrong with our boy. A urologist was called in and after all the testing was completed, the news was bad. Sam had cancer which had spread to his vital organs. He had no good options. We had to make that decision any pet owner dreads. Dr. Nikki was the night shift doctor and she was wonderful with her helping us prepare for that awful moment, allowing us to take all the time we needed to spend with Sam, by now, close to midnight, in a room set up for the final goodbye. After we spent over an hour with our boy, talking to him, petting him and comforting him, she exhibited the compassion one would hope for in the final process. We have had to say goodbye to other dogs in our lifetime, so we're not new to this, but we think VEG handled our case with Sam with the most professionalism and caring we have seen. So thank you VEG. read more

I can't say enough wonderful things about this veterinary team. They were compassionate, gentle, and incredibly skilled when caring for my cat, Mr. Cute, during his emergency visit. During one of the hardest nights of my life they treated us both with such respect and kindness. You can tell that everyone in the office, and I mean everyone, has a huge heart and truly loves taking care of animals. We were surrounded by care every step of the way. So if you are looking for a place that treats you and your pet like family, this is the place! I will always be grateful for the compassion and professionalism they showed us. I would trust them with any animal, every time. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Dr. Nikki, Danielle, Alex and Zoe. I will never forget everything you did for us! read more

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 between veterinary and human medicine. The transparency of the open floor setup allows pet owners to see firsthand the skill, dedication, and hard work that go into patient care. That kind of visibility has the potential to build greater respect and understanding for veterinary medicine as a whole. On a personal note, Luna's care was excellent. Dr. Kong (intake) and Dr. Richter (discharge) were both kind, clear, and thorough in explaining her plan. Luna even got to assist Orsa in placing her very first catheter, which made the day feel a little more special. Dani, Alexandrea, and Michelle were so sweet and welcoming, helping Luna settle in with ease. The entire team went above and beyond, and what could have been an extremely stressful day turned into one where I felt supported and confident in my dog's care. I left not only impressed but also optimistic about what VEG is bringing to veterinary medicine. read more

Wanted to give a big big thank you to the amazing staff, including Dr. Regan & America! My dog had a small cut on her eye and I needed to take her in at 6am. I had never been to VEG ER before but was in immediate need. I am so glad I took the chance. The staff here was so sweet and gentle with my dog. We were immediately taken care of and in and out with her medication. So thorough and made sure we understood everything from the aftercare instructions to the transparent cost. I would highly recommend VEG ER to any pet parents! read more

Excellent experience, even though it was a sad one. Took our sick bunny in and after amazing efforts, she passed away. I was so impressed by the entire staff, especially the doctor, who was honest, but so incredibly kind. I never once felt like I was being asked to do unnecessary, costly tests. The options and recommendations were realistic and done in small steps. They prioritized her comfort while determining her condition. They were also very sympathetic to our feelings. I would absolutely go here first for any emergency services for animals. read more

This ER exceeded my expectations. I was able to remain with my cat throughout her visit. They do have an open concept, but were able to provide a private room for her. Something that gave me peace was that this ED ran like a "human" ED. They treat pets according to their triage (severity level). With that in mind you could be waiting a while BUT remember waiting in an ED is always a good sign. Staff were amazing & very patient. The vet tech that assisted us did such a great job with my cat. She is such a sassy cat but she knew exactly how to approach her. Honestly every employee we came across was amazing & caring. read more
