Hi VEG team! I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone who helped care for my injured chicken when I brought her in. I truly believe you guys saved her life, and I'm so incredibly grateful for the compassion, patience, and care you showed her. I was so scared when I brought her in, and knowing she was in good hands gave me so much peace of mind. I've been monitoring her every day since her visit, and I'm so happy to say that she is doing MUCH better! She's eating on her own again and is now back with the rest of the chickens. Seeing her back to her normal self means so much to me. Thank you again to Dr Amber Lee, and to the entire VEG team for helping my little girl when she needed it most. I'll always be grateful for everything you did for her. read more

I can't say enough good things about this place. I don't even usually write reviews, but after what happened last night, I really felt like I needed to. My large dog attacked my Pomeranian, Miss Puff, and she had lacerations inside her eyelid. I ran into VEG with no shoes on, completely panicked, and they immediately took her into triage and made sure she was stable. This place is set up almost like a human ER. You're not just sitting in a waiting room wondering what's going on. You can actually see the team working, and they treat the animals based on the order they arrive and the seriousness of their injury or illness. They took my girl back, examined her eye, and gave her pain medication after making sure she was stable. While we were waiting, another dog came in who was clearly in serious distress. They asked me to wait at the benches in the front, and I could see that they were working on the other dog. As soon as they were finished, they came back to help us. The entire time, someone was checking in with me and keeping me updated about what was going on. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. You could tell it was a good working environment and that the people genuinely cared about the animals they were treating. I never felt ignored or forgotten, even when they had a more critical emergency come in. They took such good care of my baby and sent us home with a very fair invoice, especially considering it was an emergency visit. Thank you, VEG!! You were the only place I could find open 24/7 near San Pedro, and I'm so grateful you were there when Miss Puff needed you. read more

Thank you so so very much to the staff and to Dr. B. Unfortunately I don't remember names of the others that helped me as I was a bit stress over my poor dog. These guys are 24/7, very kind, profession and comforting. Not sure what I would have done if they weren't there for me. I called them at 5am and was there at 6:30 and they took great care of me and my dog. I highly recommend. read more

They answered the phone on the 1st ring. Told us come right in. Greeted us at the door. We were in great caring hands immediately. Clear concise communication. Heard our concerns. Swift action and we were out the door on our way home. Thank you to all the staff. read more

Monday night was supposed to be just like any other night. My 17-year-old son and I were getting ready for bed, and Peter, our beloved cat, was eating his dinner. Within moments, he suddenly collapsed. Because he had been eating, I was terrified that he might be choking. I immediately rushed Peter to VEG with my son. As soon as we arrived, multiple staff members came running to help. They took Peter right away and did everything they could. Unfortunately, he passed away. This was the first pet I have ever lost as an adult, and I was completely unprepared for the heartbreak and shock. In one of the worst moments of my life, every single person at VEG treated us with compassion, kindness, and genuine care. It was obvious that they truly love the animals who come through their doors and that helping families through difficult moments matters to them. I especially want to thank Destiny. Destiny, if you happen to see this, please know that I think about your kindness everyday. Had you not been there that night, I honestly don't know how I would have gotten through it as well as I did. The way you cared for Peter, comforted me, and showed compassion to my son meant more than I can put into words. You made an incredibly painful experience a little more bearable, and that is a gift I will never forget. Your kindness did not go unnoticed. I wish nothing but the best for you, and I hope you know that you made a lasting impact on both my life and my son's life. Thank you to everyone at VEG who helped us say goodbye to our sweet boy. Peter was deeply loved, and we miss him every day. This photo was taken just three days before he passed away. read more

I took my 7 month old puppy, Phoebe, in around 4am because she seemed like she was in pain from a puppy play date. We saw Dr. Zahra Khan. She was very good and thorough. She explained everything very clearly. She gave several options for treatment and recommendations. We also had 2 vet techs or vet nurses, not sure of their titles or names, but they both were very friendly and helpful. I was very happy with the care. The location is very open and it's a comfortable environment. I really liked that they don't separate you from your fur baby. Emergency vet care is almost never inexpensive but I really felt the price I paid was fair. I'm very thankful to have this office open 24/7 very close to my home. I realize this is a relatively new site but I'm glad I gave it a chance. Hoping to have to never go again, but I already have a great experience so I wouldn't mind going back. read more

During one of the most difficult moments our family has ever faced, the staff at VEG ER for Pets treated us with incredible kindness, compassion, and care. Having to say goodbye to our first dog after 13 wonderful years was absolutely heartbreaking, but every member of the team; from the nurses and reception staff to a very special Dr. Kahn, she made this painful process as comforting as possible. Our dog had been diagnosed with bronchitis, and his health declined rapidly. We visited numerous veterinarians and emergency clinics seeking answers, but unfortunately there was nothing more that could be done. It was an incredibly discouraging and emotional time for our family. By the time we arrived at VEG, his breathing had become very labored,The medical team quickly prepared a room for us and took the time to carefully discuss all of our options. Most importantly, they provided our dog with oxygen during his final moments something previous clinics had failed to do, which brought him much-needed comfort and gave us peace of mind. We are especially grateful to Dr. Kahn, who generously came in, examined our dog, and had an honest and compassionate conversation with us about his quality of life, all at no cost. Her kindness, empathy, and professionalism are something we will never forget. Once we made the difficult decision to proceed with euthanasia, the staff made the planning process simple and stress-free. Although we did not catch her name, one of the receptionists was exceptionally kind and helped lift our spirits by sharing a personal story with us. Throughout the process, the team provided drinks for our family and had treats available for our dog. They truly went above and beyond to make us feel supported. They also offered to save a clipping of his fur and create a pawprint keepsake, which is something we will cherish forever. The euthanasia process itself was peaceful and handled with such gentleness and dignity. We never felt rushed and were given all the time we needed to say goodbye to our sweet Henchy. We cannot thank the entire team enough for the compassion they showed our family during such a heartbreaking time. While we wish we had never needed their services, we highly recommend this emergency clinic to anyone facing a difficult situation with their beloved pet. Thank you for helping our sweet boy pass peacefully and for treating him with such love and respect in his final moments. read more

My Green Cheek Conure was lethargic and not really moving. Not really opening her eyes. I took here and from the moment I arrived everyone was so amazing and sympathetic. I ultimately had to make the heart wrenching decision to say goodbye to my little girl. The doctor gave me a hug as I left. I would absolutely recommend VEG. Thank you for being there for my Greenie. read more

I've never been to an emergency vet before today. My bunny broke his arm. I was frantic. I felt better as soon as I called. I was put on the phone with a doctor immediately. When I arrived I was treated with as much care as my animal. The staff was beyond helpful. They are so friendly and you can see they like each other. The environment is peaceful and the teamwork is evident. A huge shout out to the ladies that sedated him and took his X-rays. The doctors were compassionate and amazing. I hope to never come back but if I do I know I'll be in good hands and my animals will too. read more

I want to thank Dr. Khan and the vet technicians for taking care of my 7 year old bunny, Ruby. I took my bunny to get checked because she had no appetite and low energy. After a thorough examination and testing, Dr. Khan diagnosed her with GI stasis. I was given medication and a treatment plan to follow at home. It's been a week since the ER visit and Ruby is back to normal. read more

I was recently opening an Amazon package and clipped a 4" by 1/2" piece off the end of a sealed plastic bag to get the item out. My sweet idiot of a senior ginger cat pounced on the plastic piece and swallowed it immediately. I got his mouth open just in time to see it disappear down his throat. He might have been able to barf it up on his own, but we were leaving town early the next morning and I wanted it dealt with ASAP and I know foreign bodies can be dangerous for cats. I was taking no chances. The new Torrance VEG ER is much closer to us than ACCESS and reviews were favorable, so off we went. I had called ahead and they were expecting us. I like their big open work area. I was able to stay with my cat, which I prefer and you can't do with a lot of vets. The issue and options were explained clearly and I was asked to pay up front. I understand why they do this and I had no problem with it. We were placed in a private treatment room and medicine was given to make him vomit. He successfully produced the offending piece of plastic in a short period of time. They gave him medication to reverse the first one, as well as some fluids for support. We were in and out in about an hour. The facility was clean. The staff were professional, skilled, friendly, and supportive. He did very well with the treatment. They will be my first choice the next time I have a cat emergency. I highly recommend them. My cat insurance covered 90%of the bill, so I was grateful to have it. Thanks to all the staff for a job well done. read more

This is very unorganised and slow ER place for Pets. I spent 7 hours here just to get my cat tested. They are not in hurry and looks like understaffed. It's worse than to go to a hospital for your own ER. read more

I brought my cat Dulcey in on 8/12/26 from 1-4 AM, and unfortunately, because of the mental state I was in at the time, I can't remember the doctor's name. However, I truly want to recognize how amazing she was. From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming and kind. The doctor was extremely compassionate and clearly passionate about her job. She took the time to answer all of my questions, explain everything to me, and, most importantly, she did everything she could to make Dulcey's care as affordable as possible given my financial situation. I am incredibly grateful for that. The veterinary assistant was also very kind and welcoming. She even offered me water and made sure I felt comfortable throughout everything. During such a stressful and emotional time, these people showed genuine compassion and understanding. It was clear to me that they truly care about the animals they treat and the people who bring them in. I may not remember the doctor's name, but I will never forget how kind and compassionate she and the staff were toward Dulcey and me. Thank you to everyone who cared for her. You truly made a difficult night much more easier. read more

My pet insurance carrier has been requesting records from them for 3 weeks. Walked in there today to see probably 8-9 staff just standing with no clients/patients. Took a personal visit before they sent records which took less than 5 minutes to do. Why is it so disorganized? Who owns that responsibility? Totally unacceptable. read more

It is a blessing that this place is 24hrs. I am so grateful for everyone who works at this location. I came in on a Saturday with my Frenchie and Belgian Malinois they had gotten into a fight and yes, the Frenchie was the aggressor! They greeted us immediately and took our stats and made us comfortable while we waited for treatment. I was so upset and a nervous wreck and felt instantly at ease upon arriving. The entire staff is so caring, compassionate and attentive, it's more than just a business providing a service. They really do love pets there and it shows. 100% recommend if emergency pet services are needed. read more

I was recommended by my primary Vet to bring my babies here. The staff as soon as we walked in was so welcoming and kind.

She checked on us and our babies constantly along with all the others inside this er. Dr. Mackenzie was great and all the vet techs were so wonderful. Every single person here was just so amazing. I would recommend everyone to come here if they need help. read more

Had to bring my dog here on a Sunday morning b/c he ate something (I think it was a cocktail umbrella!) & was vomiting. We had an estimate cost before we arrived so we there wasn't a surprise! bill. The staff were great. I liked how open it was so you see what was going on with your pet at all times vs & could hold him through some of the procedures. We were lucky that there were no other patients when we arrived, but it still took a long time. We are so grateful that they were available and were able to help our pup! read more

Last night was one of the most difficult and emotional nights I've had, and the staff here at Veg ER were extremely kind, compassionate, and thoughtful not only towards me, but to my doggie as well. They put us in a peaceful cozy room with snacks and all the time I needed to cuddle my baby one more time. I would like to especially thank the technicians Destiny and Kaylee who are such sweet souls and helped me through the hardest decision I've ever had to make in my life. His passing was as peaceful and painless as could be. This is how animal care should look. Again, thank you read more

Having a sick pet is never easy. I called VEG and they immediately gave me next steps. They have the latest digital experience where they send you push text messages to get you all registered before you come in. I was greeted at the door, and within a few minutes the care team came to take my rabbit's vitals. We were treated with compassion and the upmost level of care. Dr Khan came in a few minutes later and she was very transparent on not being a vet for exotic pets but would make sure my rabbit is not in imminent danger. She assessed his issue and gave me some possibilities of what the issue may be which was tough to hear, but she did it with grace and integrity. They provided me with referrals to a vet that specializes in rabbits. I received a follow up text today to check in on my rabbit and that just led me to want to share my experience about this amazing facility. Highly recommend read more

Close and never overcharge any customers again and keep them in a small room for hours waiting to see a vet that did nothing.

I was amazed with their quick attention to my dog. I called ahead of time and they were waiting for her when we arrived. Before I knew it, she had the Vet and 3 techs working on her attending to her delicate health. The empathy, kindness and care they all had made it easier for me to deal with such difficult situation. I would definitely recommend them to all my friends and family with pets. read more

Anything other than a 5 start would be a complete lie. We brought in our mischievous cat who ate a toxic plant and immediately took him in while calling poison control. The moment we walked in they were on it. Super attentive from the jump. On top of that, once we got in the whole city decided to follow. While being so busy with other patients they took the time and really cared for each patient. Luckily, poison control confirmed with them that our little guy was alright and we were out of there. Regardless of the situation, this team was ready to assist. read more

Took my guinea pig here because her vet wasn't available. It was an emergency. They told me they don't specialize in guinea pigs so they did a quick "check". Just to tell me to take her to the vet as soon as possible. But not before selling me an eye cream and charging ridiculous amount to just be seen. Only for my guinea pig to die a few days later. If you don't treat exotics why take my money! read more

I had the worst experience with a different vet and had to rush my pet to VEG HOSPITAL. I am so thankful I did, although my precious bunny was already gone by the time I arrived there was nothing they could have done but the staff there is absolutely the best that there is. This pet hospital is an absolute recommendation from me and my family. Their compassion is amazing and the staff truly does care about your pet. Thank you VEG read more

brought my puppy in because she can be naughty and eat things off the ground, the whole team helped me and my boyfriend feel at ease and treated her with love and care and we left the same day with our pup fixed up and feeling better!! thank you to Dr. Schenone and our tech Leslie and everyone else on the team! read more

The staff and Dr. Zarday, turned our nightmare into a very comforting and supportive situation. Not only did they assess and treat our 4 year old cat Scooter after he was hit by a car. They kept us informed and offered us snacks and even moved seating so we could be near him while he was receiving treatment. I would definitely recommend them to others. While we were there we also saw them caring for all kinds of animals, I'm really impressed with them. They comforted us, our kids and our cat. Thank you! read more

Very expensive and customer service is bad. Go to Bixby or Thrive instead. They're both cheaper and have better service.

This ER was VERY accommodating to my needs. I called them to ask if they think I should bring in my 1 year old male cat because he was frequently using the restroom and very little pee was coming out. I was very nervous over the phone but they assured me that if i was worried then they were too. When i brought him in within SECONDS they came with 4 nurses to assess my cat and got in an ultrasound machine asap. After they ruled out that it wasn't a blockage they put me in a room and talked about my options. They gave me a whole list of what they would like to do for my cat but when i told them my budget they accommodated to what i was able to afford. They've called me multiple times since that visit to check on my cat and assured me that if i ever have question to not hesitate to call them. They've answered all of my questions and helped me through a stressful time. They even offered snacks and drinks while i was waiting in the room with my cat and i left with a little goody bag. They made a stressful situation better and for that I could not thank them enough. Thank you VEG ER for all that you did for my little guy. I couldn't recommend this place enough. read more
