I called last night at 1 a.m. Because My dog was acting funny. I think he had had a muscle spasm or something! I called and spoke with Logan. He was so kind and patient with me! I appreciate his kindness! read more

I had Dr. Dowling and this place was absolutely a lifesaver. My cat had multiple problems. They saw me within one minute no wait place was awesome. All staff are on point a recommend definitely a return fantastic services on point. read more

I cannot express how much I appreciate Dr Walton this group of professionals that took care of me and my cat when I brought him in. The care and concern were like no other I have seen at other places. I was able to remain with Ziggy throughout the entire process, with the exception of x-rays (which I totally understood). They were thorough in their exam and testing. Took time to explain in detail to me what what the results meant and were compassionate in their approach. Emergencies are always going to be expensive, but this was worth what I paid. I HIGHLY recommend this facility to anyone with a pet emergency. I mentioned the care they gave ME and my cat. There are rooms for you to wait and be with your pet if you are there a while; and I was constantly being asked if I needed anything. Thank you Dr Walton and the entire staff! Ziggy says thank you too! read more

This is the best Vet ER I've ever been to. So knowledgeable, helpful, caring. They greet you immediately upon arrival and let you stay with your pet the whole time. Keep you informed of everything that's happening and the costs involved. read more

THIS is the place to go. The doctors and staff are absolutely amazing! They truly care about you and your pet and will do everything they can to help both of you. We took our kitty in on a Saturday. We live in Golden Valley and I dreaded the drive. NONE of our local vets (Kingman and Bullhead) would respond to our phone calls. Frantic, we call VEG and they told us to get down there. We did! Happily, our little furball made it! I can't give Dr. Jennifer and her staff enough praise. They are reasonably priced (very reasonable) and they really, truly care about your pet. Their compassion and attention to both you and your pet is truly amazing. Thank you so much for helping my little fuzzball when she needed it most! read more

Great place! Every person in there love and cares about your pet. No matter what difficult time you're going through, the staff will do their best to get you through it. My Kona boy thanks them. read more

I brought my kitten in that was almost lifeless. I didn't have high hopes of him making it. These people were great! The doctor and nurses were working on him from when we walked in the door. They were professional and very nice. My little boy had to spend the night but he pulled through and we took him home the next morning. Thank you so much for everything! I would highly recommend them!!! read more

VEG Henderson is the most amazing animal hospital ever. Our regular Vet did all he could to help our precious cat Mufasa but he needed advanced emergency care and we headed right to VEG Henderson. Mufasa was under the doctor's care (I think his name was Dr. Martinez) within a minute of entering the facility. The doctor and his entire staff were compassionate and competent right from the start. Communication is excellent and as this is an open room facility, you can be as involved with your pet's care as you would like. Dr determined that an ultrasound was needed to determine the extent of the fluid that had built up around Mufasa's lungs. We watched as the doctor performed the ultrasound and we could see exactly what the doctor was seeing. Unfortunately fluid was also surrounding his heart as well as the lungs. The doctor advised that the only treatment option available would have been surgery but the prognosis was very poor and Mufasa would have suffered greatly. Obviously we did not want our cat to continue to suffer so we had to say goodbye to our precious Mufasa that evening. The VEG doctor and staff were so compassionate and took such good care of Mufasa and the two of us while we said goodbye. I highly recommend VEG Henderson if you need an emergency animal hospital and want to make sure your pet has some of the best emergency care possible in our great city. Seeing your pet suffer and having to say goodbye is heartbreaking but the fact that we know Mufasa had access to quick, competent and compassionate emergency care helped to put my mind at ease that we did everything possible before having to say goodbye. read more

My kitten was very lethargic and losing all his fluids, so we rushed him here. It wasn't a bad experience but it is one that was hard to recover from financially, 2 nights my kitten had there on iv, tests through out the days and such. Almost 7 thousand dollars. They also told me my cat had parvo, so he was quarantined. He was better after 48 hours. When I took him to my vet for follow up, they tested him and my other cat and they do not have parvo. It is ridiculously expensive and they do not always give correct diagnostics, but they did help my kitten, but don't come here unless you arent worried about money at all. read more

My fiance and I don't have enough great things to say about this place. It makes me emotional to think about how well we were treated at this vet and how lucky we were to be cared for by the staff here. Our 7 year old dog was very sick for about 14 hours and unable to keep anything down. We decided to take her into the emergency vet just to be safe. The doctor ran a bunch of tests on her and explained the results in detail helping us come to the decision that Frea needed emergent surgery to relieve some concerning gastric distention from an obstruction. The entire group there was so kind and helpful with the whole process. Our dog is very fearful and can be mistrusting at times and they were so helpful and patient with getting her prepped for surgery. They let my fiance and I be a part of the entire process and kept us updated during surgery with everything the doctor found. They even let us stay with her while she recovered. We were there for a total of 15ish hours (including overnight) and we didn't want to leave our girl so they gave us a private room and transformed a couch into a bed with blankets, pillows, a space heater and a comfortable area with dog beds for Frea to recover. They offered to go get us food while we stayed with Frea. It was expensive (but as to be expected when they're saving your dogs life), but they even helped to show us our different options for payment plans. Taking some of the stress off of us. They thoroughly educated us on postoperative care and made sure she had everything she needed to safely and comfortably go home. Our Frea girl means the world to us and so does the team here at VEG for being so kind and making sure we get to have more time to love our doggy. read more

Two of my dogs have seizure disorder, one occurred at 11 PM and while they may be an hour and a half away, they were there to help me when I desperately needed it for my Roxy... very grateful to them, I just wish that cost was not an issue because you definitely pay for the services, but my dogs are worth it so I am very grateful to them for being there in my hour of need. read more

I was already impressed with the location and the building but when I walked inside I was super happy to see a State of the Art Pet ER. The staff is absolutely amazing. super cordial, compassionate and extremely knowledgeable! I wish I could remember each name ! I am please also because, finally we have a facility in Henderson, and within reach. Dr Thomas is really an amazing doctor and woman. She really cared for my little Benjamin and made me feel immediately as he was in very good hands. read more

Staff was very friendly but possibly I came on a bad night ... $780 and 4 hours later... they couldn't find any issues with my dog

(Pics for Pricing) My dog was acting strange so we decided to her to VEG to get her checked out. The staff is super nice & have complimentary offerings. My dog had a uterus infection & needed surgery, however the prices were OUTRAGEOUS! $1.7k for blood work/testing but with the surgery & after care my estimate was almost $10,000!!!! And VEG won't do anything for your pet until you pay them in full... I opted for some fluids & meds to hold my dog until the next morning (that alone was $418). One of the doctors did have an off vibe to him like he was indirectly trying to put more fear onto me with the risks and wanting to convince me to do the surgery (I did what I had to for my pet, just not at VEG). But next morning, I go to my primary vet (American Pet Hospital on Sunset). My vet only charged $389 for blood work/testing & full surgery cost was $2,125. I only had to pay $867 to get her into surgery & I was able to schedule when I can pay the remaining balance. Still a little pricey but WAY better than $10,000. I do believe VEG will care for your pet and do what is necessary but ONLY IF you have the money up front. If it's a time sensitive situation & cost isn't a factor for you, taking your pet to VEG may not be a bad experience but if you can hang tight until your primary vet opens, go to your local vet for a second opinion regarding costs. Hope this gives some insight. My review is just my personal experience. read more

This shady place will prey on how much you love your pet. Over 1900 hundred dollars and they say we don't know what's wrong, take our cat to her vet the next day and it is EXACTLY what we initially said we thought it was. This place should be ashamed of themselves..... Do yourself a favor and if you can wait til morning do it or find another place read more

We came to this emergency hospital because our dog was extremely lethargic and refusing food and water for 24 hours. The care from the vet and their techs was unmatched. They took care of our sweet pup and were so gentle. I'd recommend them to ANYONE. The cost is a lot as most emergency vet hospitals are but I don't even mind when the care is this exceptional. The open floor concept and ability to be with your pet throughout their care is amazing. The discharge instructions were so thorough and detailed. Our pup is doing much better now after caring for him. During our visit my husband and I were extremely emotional and they were so calming and reassuring. They handed us tissues and water without us asking which was a really nice touch. Everyone was incredible. Thank you for taking care of us and our baby VEG read more

Hands down the most caring and sweetest staff! They took care of my sweet boy Socks when he had an allergic reaction. They constantly were checking on us and asking if we needed anything at all. You all are truly amazing! read more

It was sad to see a dog going into cardiac arrest but seeing everyone was immediately hands on, everyone was great, the dr was amazing , treated my cat with dignity (she's a plus sized gal) hehe. Not a long wait , they checked in often , offered us beverages . Overall a 10/10 read more

Best and most compassionate experience I've ever had at a vet, my sweet old Lhasa apso was bleeding from the mouth and Dr Dowling was amazing, she gently told me it looked like cancer, no hard sell to treat just kind advice as to what the options were, I would highly recommend, very reasonably priced also read more

Excellent caring staff. I was dog sitting my nephews dog Louie a 2yr old French Bulldog and he ate my medication. I called and it was suggested that I call Animal Poison Control and then bring the dog in. Once I arrived the staff went right to work on Louie. I really like the way the clinic is set up so that you can stay with your dog while the dog is being treated. Louie stayed overnight and the staff kept me informed and updated on his progress. All went well and Louie was released the following morning. read more

They truly treat your pet like their own. Every single person we met at VEG was super nice and knowledgeable. We got referred here from our reg. vet after Chunk had been vomiting and we were worried about blockage in his system. After our reg. vet did Xrays and bloodwork on a saturday morning, we were told to go to VEG asap as surgery might be needed. After we got there and everything reviewed, sadly surgery was needed. We know we're great pet parents but this time it was too much for him to pass or vomit up. All in all, they were upfront with billing, gave us a copy of the medical records, and really did go above and beyond to make sure your pet as well as yourself comfortable and reassured during this scary time. The next day I called at 5AM to even check in on Chunk. After Chunk was able to go home, they called the next day to follow up. His discharge paper explained medications and other info in case we had questions. ** We've gone to another emergency vet before for something much more simple and was charged a lot more and wasn't satisfied with their care* read more

If I could give this incredible team 10 stars I would. Our 8 year old dog collapsed but had perfect blood, urine and stool samples previously, only 2 weeks before from our regular vet. Our first phone call with Dr. Jenny, was great. Our interaction, led by Dr. Drizin and support by other docs and the team was nothing short of spectacular. They were incredibly responsive, thorough, and extraordinarily competent. The facility, setup, intake and support were truly "patient" led meaning they understood the importance of you being part of the journey. That can be calming for both you and your pet. The Veterinary Emergency Group, Veg.Vet is the epitome of patient focused care who truly understand it is not just about administering medial support, but how you do it as well. It is a tremendously better experience for both you and your pet. Could not recommend this place any more highly. Thank you! read more

Had to take my pup here due to an ear infection that got missed by our primary vet. My pup received immediate care and the Vet that saw him as well as the techs were all very knowledgeable and knew how to work with my very anxious and irritated pup. Loved the open concept in that the treatment and exam area are located in one big room so you are able to see and be with your pup at all times. Overall a great experience, thank you! read more

Wow! What an awesome place. So attentive and so efficient. I cannot say enough great things about the staff and veterinarians.

Had to bring my pup here when he unfortunately ate a whole chicken wing. The team was so sweet as I was extremely emotional the whole time. They helped my puppy discard the wing and we went on our way. Major thank you to the team! read more

Everyone was incredibly nice and professional. Dr. Whelton and her staff took exceptionally good care of my cat Raider and Jared took care of me which was sweet. Thank you all so much! read more

Everyone here is so nice and accommodating! I highly recommend bringing your pet here in case of an emergency. Veterinarian Markos, Kylie, and Aric were so nice to our dog Clem. They have snacks and refreshments to make sure pet parents are comfortable and you can be with your pet most of the time and even spend the night if you need to. read more

Incredibly kind and professional staff. Very helpful and very knowledgeable. They are patient and attentive. Highly recommend this vet ER if you need to take your beloved fur baby somewhere in case of an emergency. read more

Amazing staff!! Had to take my dog in for emergency, and they were supper kind and fast. They really care for your pet and you .

My first Yelp review ever and it goes to VEG. The most amazing, genuine, kindest group of people. They acted fast, communicated so well, kept me in the loop, constantly made sure we were ok. They were gentle with my sick pup, cared about her and made her feel comforted. Dr Williams and staff were the best group. I hope I never had to come to an emergency vet again but if I did, I will come here again for sure. read more

I hate to leave a bad review because the facility and the staff were excellent. I brought my 3 month old kitten because she wasn't very active like a kitten should be. She had some swelling on her right neck area. The doctor that saw her misdiagnosed her condition that she had an abscess and needed surgery. We have other indoor cats and she suspects that another cat swatted at her. It was very costly but I was worried about my kitten. The doctor said the infection can spread and may end up killing her. So...I went ahead and agreed to do the surgery. She was all prepped for the surgery with IV, sedation, the works but when the doctor did the ultrasound, she couldn't find the abscess. She couldn't find the puncture wound either that caused the abscess. I was relieved that my kitten didn't need the surgery. But if only the doctor diagnosed her condition correctly, it could have saved me 2/3 of the bill for unnecessary costly procedures and my kitten didn't have to endure all that stress and be subjected to an IV needle and medications that she didn't need. My kitten only needed antibiotics and anti inflammatory medicine. The cause of the swelling was an insect bite possibly from a spider. I was gonna wait until Monday to take her to the vet but she wasn't feeling any better and we were worried. Hence the trip to VEG...a very costly one. Update 06/24/24...I spoke with the Medical Director and he was kind enough to adjust the bill. I still don't recommend this place unless you want to pay twice or three times as much. I find the doctor we had as very inexperienced. read more

best emergency vet clinic in. It's the only place I would take my dogs if they have an emergency

I have never left a bad review for a place ever however, I feel extremely comfortable complaining about what happened last night. I had my fiancé bring my senior cat of 20 years of age in because all of a sudden she started to not be able to walk. It was clear something was not OK, and it was not something that could wait. For starters, we could not find my cats kennel because it was very deep in the garage and due to her situation it was an emergency to just bring her in wrapped in a blanket, which she seemed the most comfortable with to begin with, but they gave him a hard time about that and judged him for it. They took a look at her and noticed that she had some knots in her fur. She was a long haired cat and absolutely hated getting groomed and they told my fiancé she looked neglected. She clearly is not neglected. I've kept her alive for 20 years and she was loved but was a pain to try and cut those knots out so from the start he's already getting criticized. Then they proceeded to tell him that she is fine, but then proceeded to try to give her food which she would not eat. She's barely walking and when they do go to groom her, she attacks them and it's like well told you so. . Then the vet said he will not put her down because he won't be able to sleep at night. I've never heard of a vet talk this way before. The vet said the technician that euthanizes pets has already killed enough animals today so he doesn't know if she will be up for it but if she will, it's going to be $700 which the lady on the phone quoted my boyfriend $200. My boyfriend was absolutely appalled and brought her home because they clearly were not going to help put my cat at ease. As soon as he brings my cat back home, she immediately starts having seizures and foaming at the mouth. I had to endure listening to my poor cat thrashing around in the bathtub for six hours having seizures because this vet was so unprofessional and wouldn't be able to sleep at night telling us that my cats fine and wouldn't put her down and now she's dying in my house and I have to wait to take her to the vet that's open next because the 24 hour emergency clinic wanted to be a bunch of unprofessional fucks. We will be going to the news with this information. I've never been more flabbergasted or appalled with a buisness in my entire life. My poor cat had to suffer all night and this is not how I imagined her last couple hours of life to be. This business should be absolutely ashamed of yourselves and whoever worked that shift. I hope you read this and feel horrible. read more

Brought my baby girl in the morning & the dr comes to me with a plan of $1,500. I see no empathy, just eyes of money at this point. It was on my papers I refused help for my cat because of financial issues. I asked her if she can help me. Please. What would I need to get done not the extra stuff. I don't have that money. What can I do RIGHT NOW to help my cat. She gave me another plan can you guess how much? I left and came back the same night. My cat was not getting better. Now this team in the evenings is different. You still have those techs doing absolutely nothing but standing around and staring. This DR did help me. Explained to me what could've happened. What's best in her situation right now! Maybe if I had some help or sympathy from the people in the morning. I could have got her help on time. The Dr didn't even say bye. Just told me my visit was $175 and that was that. No have a good day. Nothing. Her face was just poker. The lady had been doing it to long she's probably forgotten why she started doing this job in the first place. Forget to help others. My cat was evrything to me. So Dr if you read this please adjust the way you work. These aren't just pets. These are our family members. She was MINE. It's okay we said our goodbyes that night. Stayed a whole hour in the room crying and praying. Just thinking I wish it could've gone differently. But that's the journey of life. I won't be coming back here. They wanted 800 for putting her to sleep. Cremation, and for the extra stuff her fur the paw print. I decided to lay her to rest so she wouldn't have any more pain. I did the cremation else where and have all the extra for 125. My baby girl will be home soon with me. She will forever be in my heart. In every song, memory, face, or noise. I think of her. Go to another hospital so save $. Thank you to the Dr in the evening for listening. I may have cried so much but you answered all my questions. read more

I wish we had brought our pup here sooner rather than waiting for our normal vet office to open and get in a last minute appt. Right when we walked through the doors, they were all hands on deck. I wish I remembered the doctors name, she was very informative and just laid everything out for us while still giving us time to think and being very empathetic. Unfortunately, with the choices we were given, we had to put down our frenchie, Milo. They never once made us feel rushed and they let us take our time with him in a private room. If we ever decide to get a dog again and there ever was an emergency, I will be coming here. The drive was a little long for us but I cannot put into words how impressed I was even with our sad outcome. read more

This emergency is just awesome; super clean and neat. Staff are very friendly and courteous. Dr. Janae Williams is THE BEST! She is very patient, compassionate, professional and knowledgeable. I am very impressed by her work ethics! I wish she had her own practice! read more

This place killed a wild pigeon I was desperately trying to save. Context: I had taken a young pigeon still learning to fly into my care when I had found it in my backyard. At the time, it was completely healthy and remained that way for 4 days total. It drank water perfectly fine but I couldn't get it to eat (I hadn't thought to syringe feed it because I was hoping he'd be so hungry he'd figure out how to pick seed. On his last day of life, he went from being completely normal to abruptly having severe difficulty with motor skills, which I now know was due to a calcium deficiency. At the time, I had known that was an option thanks to google but I also was terrified that I could've been from parasites. I had called every vet and was recommended to go here, which was 40 minutes from where I lived. Before I came, I had explained the situation over the phone and asked to bring a fecal sample so they could run it for parasites which they said yes. When I arrived the vets were on their phone or socializing/laughing with one another, and the vet tech had to ask for help multiple times for one of them to help me. When the vet finally came she admitted she had no idea what to do about birds as she wasn't an avian vet (why was I recommended to go here if there wasn't someone certified to help?). She did some "research" and came back saying some of the same things I had seen on google... it's $175 to walk in the door here but it's free to use google so again, why am I here? She thought it was a neurological disorder, but I had to remind her multiple times that he had been fine before this and was in a cage where he couldn't fall and develop these issues. I had told them he drank water fine and was acting fine before all this and even told them that it was too my knowledge that he barely ate if he ate at all. She told me blood work wasn't possible (at an emergency vet???) and refused to do a fecal because I should go to a normal vet for that- and that the results would take a few days (I'm already paying this vet fee, why do I have to go to another vet and pay another vet fee when I need answers urgently????) Since she was unable to perform the tests I was requesting, she was adamant that he was dehydrated and suggested an IV and take antibiotics. I asked multiple times if she was sure this wouldn't make things worse as I had said again he drank water fine and even refused to drink water at the vet because he had drank plenty of water before arriving at the vet? She promsied me that neither the Iv or the antibiotics couldn't hurt at all, though there was a chance it wouldn't help- I needed to go to a normal vet to find out what what actually help... This sadly became the biggest lie I ever fell for as the IV had caused him to have hyperosmotic pressure (he was over hydrated) and he died at home of a heart attack, when all he needed was some calcium... which a blood panel could've figured out.... I came here in desperate need to save a wild animals life and they KILLED him due to "guessing" from poor listening skills. I am broken hearted that I had paid $315 to have a life I wanted to save murdered by people whose job is to help and save lives..... I don't care that it was a pigeon- to me, a life is a life. Maybe this place if good for cats and dogs, or maybe it's just that I got super unlucky and had a vet who clearly didn't have strong listening skills, wanted to make money above all, and didn't actually care about a pigeon (not many people do but I thought a beg would be different especially with the strong recommendations to come here). I can only recommend this business if you too would like to know what it feels like to be robbed of $315 and left broken hearted due to malpractice. read more

Our experience here was outstanding. Beautiful facility, compassionate and expert staff. Top notch all the way around. Cost was quite reasonable for the services provided. We couldn't be more impressed with VEG. read more

I can not say enough wonderful things about this place. From the second we walked in with our grandchildren and their dog who was reaching the end of her life, we were treated so kindly. From a private room to say our goodbyes, to ALL the kind, caring people who helped us through this very sad time for our family. Our hearts were broken in the the loss of Princess, but VEG could not do enough to help us through it. THANK YOU! I highly recommend this place for anyone facing an animal emergency read more

We took our dog here and unfortunately we lost him no fault of theirs they took every measure to save him. They were beyond compassionate and caring and I highly recommend if you have a pet emergency to take them here. They are very professional, diligent, and caring. Thank you to all the staff that night! read more
