    This is your mind on drugs
    Tony S.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    I prefer coming to this location compared to my vet in riverdale. Fast service the staff is very informative and caring towards your pets needs. I've taken both my dogs here and love the care they received.

    First time here and so thankful they are in town and open. Had an emergency with my pup and from the moment I called to when I arrived they were so so helpful. They made me feel comfortable given the emergency and they were very thorough, explained everything step by step. The entire staff from the front desk to the vet techs and doctor, were all so pleasant. I would totally recommend them and will go again should we have another emergency after hours.

    See all

Watching him fight for his life was one of the hardest things I've ever been through, but your team never gave up on him. I'm a firm believer in the power of positive energy and love, and I truly felt that at VEG. Beyond the teams incredible intelligence and skill, you provided a sense of peace even while I was completely distraught. You are all so personable that I actually found myself enjoying little moments with you, which made such a nightmare situation feel a little less dark. Wally is my absolute world, my best friend and my biggest source of happiness, seeing the compassion you poured into him means everything to me. Thank you for not giving up on him and for giving us more years of life together. You are all truly angels on earth and will have a permanent place in my heart. I wish you all the biggest blessings. With so much love, Wally's mom :)

I never felt rushed or stupid for asking questions. My most recent visit, I had to rush my dog in and they saw him right away. I had initially called as I was unsure if his behavior warranted a visit so they had me send a video clip to make sure and they did recommend him to be seen. During his stay, they called to update me on any happenings which thankfully there were none. At discharge, they supplied me with medication and a script to get a little more in case I couldn't get a quick follow up visit with my primary vet. Though it is pricey (each visit I opted for several hours of observation), I expected it but you aren't pressured to do anything. They will print out an estimate and breakdown of what and how much everything would cost. Then as the pawrent, you decide. They have a free private parking lot and 24 hour visiting hours or you can stay with your pet. There's always someone there so I felt confident my furbaby was safe.

    I first took my cat here to see an opthamologist last summer. I had taken him to 2 separate vets…read morefor issues with his eye due to allergies and scratching. (We tried a new vet local to us since moving, but decided to go back to the one we trusted, an hour away). Both vets prescribed prednisone drops among trying other things. Our regular vet suggested it was time for a specialist. I'd called several places and no one had an available appointment for months. Some had an office visit charge of $400+ and insisted on doing bloodwork although he already had recent bloodwork done. Finally I called Newtown and got him an appt for the same week, and it was under $300 for the exam. The opthamologist we saw that day is no longer there, but our experience was a positive one. I found out his eye issue was a herpes infection that was not resolving due to the prednisone. Something completely missed by the regular vets. She also recommended entropion surgery for his eyelid that was turned in (later discovering his eyelash had fused to his eye). Fast forward to last week... I brought him back to the vet because of changes in the appearance of his eye. He had a "corneal sequestrum" which is dead scar tissue from trauma. We were monitoring it to make sure it didnt become an issue. Back to the opthomologist in Newtown - this time we saw Dr Crabtree. The cost of the visit was only $202, billed as a followup from last year. I feared surgery, but she told me his eye was attempting to heal itself by pushing out the dead tissue, which was a good thing. Surgery would be $4000, but she is confident he wont need it. She prescribed antibiotics drops but didnt make me buy them there, since I had some at home already. The plan is to recheck him in a few weeks, and remove any loose tissue at that time. Such a relief to hear good news. My worry woth specialists is that they want to do expensive procedures and testing, but this was not the case here. Contrary to another review I read, my cat was treated with care by all staff we encountered.

    I got a cut and paste response to this second post after my call and hold . Apparently what I wrote…read morewas not read or responded to personally. Wow. "Pet Wellness Team S.

    Busy establishment. The receptionist chappie seemed a little overwhelmed, as when I arrived at 8am…read moresharp another three people walked in with pets at the same time and not all had appointments. I have no issue with the price - I read other reviews where clients complain about the charges but they need an education. I guess this place has more customers than they can handle (great!) which was borne out by my impression of a lack of customer service - otherwise I would give 5 stars. The only issue I had is as follows: Bottom Line- is the cat made it out alive - with only two nails cut and bleeding so we should be thankful. Other than that he was clean and fur trimmed and smelled of roses - I did want to address the bleeding nails issue though and called back to speak to Bianca the owner and left two messages with the receptionist for her but no return call. Unimpressed with this. Customer advice now: If your groomer injures (or cuts accidentally) any pet, I as they owner like to be the first to know - tell me when I arrive to collect little Schnoz, and not have me find out when I get home and the cat winces when I pick her up and I see blood on her paws. I'm not being too dramatic either - just tell me when I come to collect the animal... like: "Hi Mr Blobby, I'm afraid Bob our groomer had a little difficulty bathing your cat Schmucko, and when clipping his nails, two of them were cut a little too close to the quick and bled a but please don't worry, he's fine now but we apologize- and be assured he will probably do better next time once he's more familiar with our staff...." Now if you told me something along those lines when I arrived to collect little Schmucko - fine....I'd be absolutely fine with it. By the way I am a military veteran so used to seeing a bit more than Fido's uncomfortable toes - so please know I'm definitely not being overly dramatic at all- it's all relative. I was more upset that I wasn't told promptly and didn't get a call back from the owner. The cat can and will get over it! As for the staff - no one has "time" for the customers as they are so busy. Again, customer service would do well here because clients need to be reassured of quality service and prompt and efficient grooming. Having been told "one hour" but in the end it took three hours: not a biggie again but do try and manage customers' expectations. Tell me' "It may take three hours but we might be done earlier and will let you know." The reception rooms smells bad - dog and cat funk and wet matted hair and poop all mixed together. Get the ventilation going. As I said, the cat made it out in one piece so we will return again but not for a while. It would have been nice to get a call back. One week later and I don't think it's going to happen.
