Been here a few times before. On March 21st, my dog fell down a flight of steps. I told him to the ER hoping he didn't break anything. Met Dr. Kelly Kasica & staff. She was extremely professional and examined Terri throughly. We were in & out within about 1 hour, 20 minutes. I'm sure the fact that I got there at 9am on a Saturday also helped. But Dr. Kelly & staff was great. Thank you! read more

VEG ER for Pets - Sick little void - Emergency Pet Hospital Near Me - White Plains, New York

Compassionate and professional in perfect combination. We can't say enough about every staff person that assisted us in an obviously scary and overwhelming time and did their best to diagnose and care for our cat while communicating clearly to us at every step of the process. We trust the staff at VEG ER unconditionally. We watched for hours as they helped several people arrive with various pets and they all were assisted in the same manner. read more

Its pretty good and fast. Some people will not be happy with the openness but thats what it is. You see everyones issues/pets in distress. If this is too much for you, do not come. Everything seems to be $500 per visit. Parking lot is dark, please fix that read more

No I do not recommend this business at all. A huge waste of money. It seems like they hire young kids that just play around lowkey and make jokes at serious things. They drained my cat of fluid and didnt test the fluid at all when my vet called them for a follow up on the fluid. Just made bets on how much fluid would come out of her. Then when we were walking out of the door tried to charge us 500 dollars more then the original price for stuff that we didnt ask for or that they didnt tell us we had to pay extra for just did it with no asking or knowledge that it would be more. Dont send your pets here was the worst er that Ive seen for pets and they need better staff that doesn't play in your face. read more

Dr Blutinger and his merry staff of VEGimites were incredible to say the least. They are masters of dealing with real animal emergencies as well as guiding the humans who are emotional when bringing in their 4 legged (2 legs as well we saw birds) loved ones who are in distress. We have had many dogs and cats over the years and this was truly the most impressive set of people in an ER setting so we highly recommend VEG. In our case it was more than reasonable in cost as well. In all that time we were there (8 plus hours for a blood transfusion as they are a blood bank) saw emergencies come in and nobody waited more than 60 seconds before a doctor was in front of them and their animal was on a table. Yes it's a different experience because you're literally in it and you are part of the experience which is emotional even though it's not your animal, but we came out of there in all honesty better pet parents for seeing other people going through things and how it was being handled. Imagine how rare it is for you to be able to be with your pet during this entire process vs the usual stress of being separated at other facilities. This should be the norm and was the original reason we chose VEG. read more

Dr Fiore was so compassionate. She was patient , kind , explained kindly in laymen's terms what was going on with Porsche. I really appreciated that as I am not in the medical field. There was a lot going on yesterday at their ER but we felt attended to cared for and heard Highly recommend this ER from the moment we walked in to the second we left, the ER doctor, techs, everyone was kind caring and animal centered read more

I have a bunch to say, and I really hope you don't just skip over it. I am frustrated for a few reasons: first, the doctor did not seem to take my concern seriously. She watched a video I brought in that was not the best quality (it was dark, mostly. Also not very long so it was hard to tell totally what was going on especially in a loud room). She decided that what she was seeing was just sneezing, and even when I said multiple times that it did not look like sneezing when it happened (I actually do know what sneezing cats look like), she was dismissive repeatedly and continued to say that it was just sneezing. Then, when she went over my options for treatment, she listed I think over $2,000 worth of tests and medications. When I asked what of that was actually necessary and urgent, she said that we could just do the medications and see. When I asked what would happen if we didn't do that, it turned out that none of it was necessary or urgent. It would be just as well to keep an eye on her for a few days and talk to our regular vet. At an emergency room I would hope that the recommendations of treatment are for things that are likely to be immanently life threatening, or close to. I would hope, not being a vet myself, that I would be able to trust an er vet to clearly tell me what is urgent and necessary. I feel that my anxiety was taken advantage of. What I wished would have happened was that the doctor had reassured me that my cat was going to be fine for a few days until I got in to see our regular vet and that no testing or anything else was necessary at that time (even if what I was seeing was not just sneezing). And, if there were things that were necessary and urgent, I would hope that the doctor would give options in a logical order of importance and urgency (like, let's do a chest x-ray first and see what the results are before we do blood work, or whatever), rather than presenting it as if it's a block of treatments and tests that should all be done right away. Overall I'm quite frustrated with the treatment and service I received at this ER. read more

We took a family vacation to New York from Northern California and our puppy suffered a mishap involving his leash and a car door. Yes, it was my fault, and yes I feel terrible still today. He was a bit limpy but we thought it might be a strain but, in the morning, when he hadn't recovered any we took him to VEG on Christmas Eve. The service we experienced was incredible from the standard of medical care offered by Dr Adam S (his last name escapes me but it rhymes with Beaver) who was a new member of the team from Canada and was superb. He was empathetic, informative and took wonderful care of our little furry friend. They patched him up, gave him lots of lovely drugs to send him to sleepyland and we were able to enjoy our Christmas Eve. We had to return on Christmas Day because we had noticed a spot of blood on his paw, plot twist, it wasn't blood but he didn't like the look of the bandage job after a day and they redid it, all for no charge. So thank you VEG. Our Christmas plans may not have gone as expected but you made sure everything was taken care of so brilliantly. Cost wise, it wasn't cheap but it also wasn't horrible and fortunately we have insurance for this sort of thing but we were in for about $1500. Oh they have snacks, great coffee and even non-dairy creamer options so the humans get treats as well as the animals, but only if you're well behaved. read more

I brought my sweet Juanito here after a scare of him sneezing blood. I called them, spoke with a vet over the phone and made an appointment for 45 minutes in advance. By the time we arrived, we walked right in and were immediately taken into a private room in the back. The vet techs and veterinarians were extremely professional and had excellent bedside manner towards me and my dog. They weighed him, took his temperature, and did an assessment of his mouth. Next, they ran some quick bloodwork and we had the results not even an hour later. I was extremely impressed with their services in making me and Juanito feel at ease during a time of uncertainty. They found the root of the problem to be a small hole in his mouth. They recommended us to visit our primary vet and provided Juanito pain meds and antibiotics. We took him to our vet the following week for some dental work and he now is happy as a clam. Thank you so much for your kindness. I will be recommending VEG to every pet parent I know. read more

My senior cat was very ill with nausea, vomiting and a UTI. The doctors and techs at veg were competent and empathetic and diagnosed and treated her so she felt better quickly. It took two visits but that was due to her complex condition. The open concept might not be for everyone but my cat didn't mind. I would come anytime for the services and competence, although the prices are high and perhaps prohibitive to some. read more

Human beings do not get this level of healthcare. The staffing was responsive. The services were exceptional and the doctors were top notch. I hope this practice will consider expanding into standard pet care. No pet should need an ER to be treated this well. read more

One of our cats was very sick, and we brought him here. He was sick enough for it to be the end of the line for him. Everyone who helped, from bringing him in through understanding what possible therapies were available, explaining if those therapies could realistically increase his quality of life, making the decision to euthanize, to the process of euthanization, was sensitive, informative, and beyond kind. They do have an open layout, but for the process of euthanization, we got a room with a door. They're even equipped to take care of cremation. For such an awful event, I can't imagine anything the staff and doctors here could have done differently. Truly top tier work by everyone. I wish I could remember the name of the doctor we saw, but her name tag was covered by a lanyard, and I was obviously not in a great state of mind in the moment, but she was far better than she needed to be (whoever was doing the overnight of June 17-18 2026). If you ever need a pet ER, this is a good one. read more

When you are dealt with an emergency with your pet who is family to you, bringing your pet to Veterinary Emergency Group is the best decision. Two weeks ago, my cat wasn't eating after getting sick multiple times in one day and was lethargic. I brought him up to VEG on Saturday morning. When I walked into the door they greet you, triage your pet and put them first. Angelina Medina was amazing she calmed my fears and also made my cat Leo her priority. Between her and Dr. Baker they got Leo the tests he needed in under an hour. It was determined that he was a diabetic and in DKA. They informed me the plan of action with compassion and no pressure. Angelina made sure Leo was comfortable and once set up in his crate. I was able to stay with him as long as I wanted. All the staff there take our feelings into account with our pets. I believe Leo received the best care there. He had a nurse that took great care of him... Rob! Rob treated him like I did. He had a special bond with him. He would give him the tlc that he needed. Rob said to me that he wished that he was there when he was going to be discharged because he created such a bond with him. From Dr Baker, Dr King Smith, and Dr Pardo. They all are amazing! They put your pet first and have a great bedside manner with the owners who are stressed while their baby is there. They celebrated with me each improvement he made. All the care he received, he was able to go home in 2 days and has improved every day after. This place also lets you come and go as you please. They let you be with your pet which I believe helps the pet that they don't feel alone and afraid. This place deals with all types of animals and gives 5 star care, I witnessed it while visiting with my cat. They are amazing professionals who love their jobs. I can't thank you enough for treating Leo like he was yours . I definitely recommend VEG in white plains, ny if you are in that emergency situation and need immediate care. It will be my go to for my pet's emergency needs. read more

Our goldendoodle all of a sudden would not jump on the couch or chair. We found this odd for him. Fear that he might of injured his leg, my husband and son brought him to VEG ER. The Vet pressed on his back and said he may have a split disk in his back and offered to do a full work up: MRI, injection, etc. My husband and son called me very upset. I said to just pay for the exam, and we would see our regular vet on Monday. They told my husband and son they shouldn't just leave without anything and insisted the dog was "in pain" and it was abusive to do so. They winded getting some prescriptions. The next day, the dog seemed fine, but we brought him to our regular vet anyway. Our vet looked at the paper and threw it down and said he's fine and not to give him those prescriptions!! Stay away!! read more

My nearly 17-yr-old dog let me know it was time for her to go last Sunday. I knew she couldn't wait for her regular vet to open on Monday, so I took her here. Worried that it would be cold and lonely, but it was absolutely the opposite. Everyone was extremely nice, expressed their condolences. They put us in a private room with a sofa and I was able to hold and pet my dog the whole time. They said I could stay in the room with her as long as I liked. And when we were ready, they wrapped her up in a special blanket and carried her away. They took care of us like we were family--and for all they know, they'll never see me again. I was super impressed with every detail. I hope I'll never need an emergency vet again, but if I do I know where I'll be going. read more

VEG saved my dog's life. December of 2021 he was Diagnosed with ITP an autoimmune disordeand needed a blood platelet transfusion. He had to stay overnight and they allowed me stay with him In a private space. While the open floor plan is unsettling and you do see other families get bad news; they are caring and work together quickly. I also returned for less urgent matters like eye infections and they helped me determine he had allergies And recommended a local specialized vet. read more

I had an emergency with my puppy, Linus, and rushed him to VEG ER for Pets. From the moment I walked through the doors, the team was absolutely incredible. Within seconds of arriving, they literally took him from my arms and sprang into action -- no waiting, no hesitation, just pure compassion and urgency. Every single person I encountered was kind, professional, and reassuring. They kept me updated, explained everything clearly, and treated Linus as if he were their own. Their level of care, empathy, and expertise was beyond anything I could have hoped for in such a stressful moment. I'm forever grateful to the entire team that took care of my sweet pup. You gave him the care he needed when he needed it most, and for that, I can't thank you enough. If your pet ever needs emergency care, trust me -- VEG is where you want to be. Anna O. read more

Last night we came home at dinnertime and went to feed our daughter's two cats. They were pair-bonded when she adopted them eight years ago, and they do much of what they do, together. They always race to their bowls when they hear the sound of the can of cat food opening. But this was a very different event. For the first time ever, the female remained on a chair and hardly opened her eyes. Something felt very wrong. When I came back into the room after feeding the male cat, I didn't see her anywhere. Turns out she was hiding behind the piano, and we read that a cat will often hide when they are sick. It was late and we were very afraid for her if we fell asleep. We wanted to have her seen ASAP. I called VEG White Plains and Stephanie Z. answered the phone. She told us that they were open 24/7 and gave us directions. When we arrived there, our kitty was seen immediately. The ER doctor, Gina Porelli, was so thorough in her examination and decisions of what tests to do. Her nurses, Eric and Alicia, were so carefully gentle as they both drew blood and, when the results came back, administered a vaccination. They sent us home with meds and showed us how to use the Pill Pockets to make the pill seem like a treat. This morning i was very happy to call and speak with Dawn, the Nursing Manager, to tell her that our pussycat was, thanks to that whole VEG crew, feeling sooooo much better. We can't even begin to give them all a big enough shout out!!!!!!! read more

I've been to this place a few times before, and while it's never been amazing, it's been fine--until tonight. I brought in my dog, who I adopted 8 months ago, because he broke a nail. He's a traumatized dog, not neutered, so yeah, he's a little rough around the edges and behaves on pure testosterone. I went in expecting help, but instead, I got nothing but judgment. The woman at the front desk took forever to acknowledge me, and when she did, she was rude and dismissive. I've never seen her there before, and honestly, she has no business working with animals if she can't show basic compassion or understanding. I did ask the lady who was assisting me how much it would be because God knows I've spent a lot of money already, and not one doctor acknowledged me for an hour. That was another reason I left--excuse me, but if it's not an emergency, I refuse to pay emergency prices. It's not that I can't afford it--because believe me, I could pay it and then some--but I won't out of principle. I know they jack up the prices just because it's labeled as an emergency situation, and that feels like exploitation. I waited an hour, and by the time I realized no one was going to help me, I had to take my dog all the way to the vet in Katonah. I live in Armonk, so that was not convenient at all. But here's the thing: I was so uncomfortable that when I told the front desk I was leaving because the environment was making my dog shake, two other receptionists agreed with me. They could see what was going on and understood, unlike the first woman who couldn't be bothered to offer any kind of support. I can only imagine that if they weren't aware of the judgment being thrown at me, they wouldn't have so quickly agreed. From now on, my other dog and my two cats will not be coming here. You don't know me, you don't know my pets, and you don't know what we go through every day. I do my best to care for my adopted stray, and I expect empathy, not judgment. If you can't provide that, you're in the wrong line of work. read more

I have to say I am very impressed with the VEG White Plains. I have been there with various animals many times. They accept wildlife too. I have been to many many vets over the years- regular ones and ER ones. At VEG White Plains everyone is kind and helpful- the vets are patient and take the time to explain things. You are able to be with your companion animal the whole time. They genuinely seem to like and care for animals and their humans. While it can be expensive, it seems not to be as bad as many other ER vets. read more

It's always stressful when your pet is sick and can't communicate what's going on to you. Last night we had a very scary situation with our dog who was showing a lot of what we thought were neurological symptoms and a ton of inconsistent pain. We had heard of VEG (actually I think first through Hulu? So thanks Hulu!) and rushed him there late last night. We were greeted right away and immediately taken in and looked at within several minutes. They did an initial exam and made some suggestions on what they'd like to do for diagnostics with an estimate and asking for consent. We agreed to the tests and we waited with him the whole time (which I loved). He ended up needing to stay overnight for supportive care. Everyone we worked with was SO friendly and respectful. They told us we could stay all night with him if we wanted or we could go get some sleep and come back whenever we wanted. So we did go home for a few hours and went back early in the AM. He hadn't been seen by the doctor yet but as soon as we walked in we were immediately taken back and able to sit with him until he was ready to be checked out. I'm always so picky with how people handle my pet, but I have to say I was very impressed with this place. They talked us through everything multiple times if needed, gave recommendations, and gave us privacy to speak alone. I think the most comforting thing was that I was able to stay with him throughout this process. I find comfort in knowing I can come back to (and will if ever needed) VEG in an emergency situation. A note: is is pricey. Our dog has been through a lot of vets though for multiple issues/procedures so I don't think they are any more or less expensive than another place. I highly recommend them. *I didn't take many pictures because I wasn't really thinking about it at the time, but also wanted to respect the privacy of others during their stressful times. read more
