Dr. Chahal saved our dog's life. Our Pittie-Boxer mix is 12 years old and hadn't been neutered. We were surprised to learn he had only one testicle. When Dr. Chahal examined him and ordered an X-ray, we discovered the other testicle had not dropped and was inside him--the size of a golf ball--and was causing other health issues. If we hadn't removed it at that moment, there could have been more serious problems. We were amazed that, despite years of visits to other vets, no one had detected this earlier. Thank you, Dr. Chahal--our dog is still with us at 15 years old!

Amazing care, Dr Yang is super professional and knowledgeable. Riju is a wonderful vet assistant. I have a scaredy cat and they're great at keeping him calm.

Silicon Valley hosts some of the top professionals in the world. Dr. Carolyn Yang is one of them. My cat had a complicated abscess repair. He's a service animal, and I almost lost him. I can't imagine living in this world without my best friend. This clinic contracts with agencies that help the less fortunate. Dr. Yang can juggle several emergencies at once without missing a beat. She is grace under pressure. Fluffy & I will live to see another day, together. I couldn't be more happy or grateful. Thank you, Dr. Yang!

Our 3 fur babies have becoming here for years. 2 of our pups have had all major life saving surgeries/procedures here and this is our only go to clinic for all our emergency situations and we haven't but most likely will transition from our other vet for preventative care to Ark also. This is an all in one clinic and they always have an appointment available within reasonable time and I can't even tell you, how much I appreciate them staying open till 9pm. It always makes for people like me that work till 6pm and Saturdays to get an appointment without waiting weeks out. Shout out to my buddy, Christian, all the rest of the staff and Dr. Chalat! I adore that they put my fur pups health and well being with all their appointments. We have always had positive and wonderful experiences with Ark. Gizmo, Bella, and Tiko thank you guys and appreciate all of Ark staff too!

*First time experience* Review for a Cat…read more Believe the reviews, this place is phenomenal! While I hope all of our fur babies will never need to come here, sometimes things happen and unexpectedly. I want to be transparent that I was at SAGE earlier in the day-- let's just say I don't like the route they wanted to go and I went to VEG few hours later. As we know, cats are masters at hiding pain and discomfort. The below review was from July 15, 9pm at night. My 5 1/2 cat Bebe's symptoms: 1. Not eating or drinking and it was 95 degrees 2. No potty at all (I have a litter robot, plus two other cats) I brought her in after 15 hours of these symptoms. A bit "quickly" but as I mentioned it was hot out and my girl LOVES food. About the vet: I called beforehand, very nice gentleman answered, didn't rush me, didn't treat me like another number in the queue. I also want to call out, no AI crap! A real human answered when I called I didn't have to select "press 7" etc. I arrived about 20 mins after the call and was greeted warmly by the front desk. Extremely clean place, coffee and tea bar, freshly baked cookies! We were promptly given a room and Dr Molly came in within 15 mins of our arrival after the nurse took vitals. Dr Molly is a pure assets to this vet. Before she started talking, she sat down on the ground to not overwhelm my cat. Her voice is very sweet, she understood my concern and gently got Bebe comfortable. Treated her like a little scared child vs just some animal with no feelings. She got to Bebe's level vs throwing her on the metal table. Dr Molly listened to every little trivial thing I said about the past 24 hours because I wanted to be transparent and she determined we should do an x ray and blood work. I was promptly given the link via phone to pay + outline of costs, clear! I did have to wait about 2 hours for results of the xray due to the hour I was there (9pm to midnight), the results were sent out for review. I received them back and they are the clearest x rays I've ever seen, better than a human hospital, seriously. They send you a live link to download them too. Diagnosis: she came back in, same calm voice vs the chaos she had in the vet (few emergencies popped up with dogs) while I was waiting. She gave Bebe fluids and anti nausea injection and an antibiotic injection. I got home 1am and she started eating! I couldn't believe it. Her red blood cells were a bit high (inflammation), thank god no blockages. What I think was wrong: we had a little stress when I got home with a big box and she ran between my legs and got stressed running into them + the door slammed same time she got freaked out running into my legs hard.

Brought my dog in at 11pm since this was the only available vet that open. She had CHF and we…read morenoticed her breathing was getting muddy and panting. They kept my dog in an oxygen tank overnight and the next day advised us that she would not make it. I understand that vets advise humane euthanasia but they shouldn't guilt trip the patient's owners into it. Also please know how your pets act because vets and vet techs don't know them as much as you do! Our dog usually pants heavily and gets really anxious and the vets perceived it as her struggling to breathe and even kept advising us that euthanasia was the only way. We opted to bring her home and get a second opinion with her primary vet (who advised us that she was still bright and alert and needed treatment, not euthanasia!) Her primary vet also saw red flags with all the different medication she was given and obviously would cause her body to react negatively. We could have lost her that day to euthanasia but thank goodness we followed our instinct and brought her home. It's been 5 days now and she's starting to eat and drink and get her strength back. When it's time - they will let you know. Humane euthanasia is beneficial, yes. But know how your pets are and always get a second opinion if you're not sure!

I cannot begin to explain the amount of empathy and care their team gave to my entire family in this process. Since our baby was 100+ pounds it was hard for my elderly father to help carry him. In response to this their team was waiting for Hopper with a gurney and took over to make the whole process somewhat easier on us. Even being away, they let me do some of the paperwork over the phone so our family did not have to be there longer than they needed to be. My father told me about how exceptional their crew was that night and how much compassion they had for Hopper and our family. If you were working the day of 2/19 around 4AM, your kindness truly touched us and made us feel safe leaving our baby in your hands. I can't begin to thank you enough from the bottom of my heart.

I have never had such an experience with SAGE and this was my first time going to medvet and the last.

They were very kind and helpful. They gave us a quote for bloodwork, it was a few hundred more than we expected. They made some adjustments and we went a head with the new plan. They came back with some bad news. We were definitely devastated to hear the prognosis. They were very kind and helpful as they told us they were going to give him a treatment so me could bring him home to say our goodbyes. We were needless to say heartbroken but also extremely appreciative of their honesty in what they thought. We brought our boy home after the treatment, feed him food took him for a few walks and gave him lots of love then brought him back to have him put down . We are supper grateful for their honesty and compassion. We will miss him very much

I've been here now a few times and continue to be very impressed with the whole team at MedVet…read more They're awesome, really good people. Our most recent visit our cat got a sticky (glue) fly trap stuck to him, which may seem like a silly thing to bring a cat to emergency for... but the level of freaked out that he was, we were having difficulty handling him, and he was bleeding and we couldn't determine from where. I called to ask for advice on how to handle the situation, which they gladly gave. The person at the front desk even called me back after she talked to a technician and had additional information for me! We ended up taking him in, as we just couldn't get things under control on our own and he was clearly in a lot of pain. A technician took him back to assess him quickly, got him cleaned up, located the source of the bleeding and cleaned his wounds. And of course he was an angel for her... (why can't he be like that for me?!?!). Once again, everyone was incredibly friendly, helpful, and efficient. They never minimize what you're dealing with... if they thought it was silly reason to be there, they sure didn't make it seem that way to me. They took our concerns seriously and were very supportive, and took excellent care of our cat. The other thing I really appreciate with the team here is that they aren't trying to add on or charge for unnecessary services. Costs are explained clearly and feel very fair. I haven't once felt like they were taking advantage of the emergency nature of a situation. Again... really good people here.

After all, it was just an ear infection and everyone knows its not a huge deal and just requires drops. The first red flag was the phone call. The receptionist was laughing hysterically at some background joke and could barely give me directions, yet couldn't bother to put me on hold and compose herself. I had to tell her I couldn't understand her. It was really unprofessional. When I arrived, the clinic was nearly empty. Another client who came in after me was seen first left while I was still sitting there, waiting. That person came and went yet I was till there. The vet eventually confirmed the ear infection and said they'd clean it and send me home with ear drops, as I figured. Instead, I waited almost another full hour with no explanation (total visit 2 hours). I finally had to insist they return my dog to me because I had work in the morning and i wouldn't get home till 1am. The bill was absolutely outrageous for basic care, even at an emergency vet: Around $600 total..... for a simple ear infection! Breakdown: * $255 emergency fee (no issue here, I understand the premium for the emergency visit) However.... * $83 to irrigate the ear * $154 to look in a microscope * $100 for the ear drops. These exact same ear drops (Baytril Otic 15ml) sell for $25 on Chewy. A 400% mark up over retail??? Worse still, the overpriced drops were not the correct meds and didn't even work. A week later I had to go to my regular vet and spend even more to actually clear the infection which SAGE failed to do, though thankfully, my regular vet didn't rip me off like SAGE did. This was price gouging combined with poor service. I will never return and strongly recommend others go elsewhere for emergencies. Read the other 1-3 star reviews for similar experiences.
