    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!

    Dr. Yang and staff are the best, very knowledgeable and professional. We have been coming to Ark Veterinary for almost a year now and always leave knowing my cat, Bella is well taken care of. Highly recommend them for your fur babies .

    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!

    They were nice and handled my doggy carefully, the appointment was easy to make and available right away. The staff was professional and the vet was knowledgeable. I brought my 15 year old Chihuahua in for a check up after a seizure episode. Recieved free nail trimming as well.

    My dog

    I had to bring my cat into for an emergency exam because it seem like his eyes were acting up and he also seemed like he had worms. I called and I was able to bring my cat in immediately for $90. They were able to check him in fast

    One of our foster dogs with mega E

    The doctors and techs are great. We have brought in multiple foster dogs, and they are always accommodative, timely and extremely helpful. Dr.Yang is our favorite, but everyone we've met has been been very helpful and great to work with.

    See all

    Do you guys do nail trimming for Guinea pigs or a check up?

    Hi, we unfortunately don't. We are a clinic for dogs and cats only. Hope this helped!

    *First time review, not about vet services but customer service*…read more I showed up here to book an appointment for my kitten who had a bump on her nose. I panicked despite taking her to my local vet (he told me to wait 2 weeks for the antibiotics to work before I do anything else). Long story short, I did end up pushing my appt out to wait, but with all my anxiety and pushing my appt out, the staff at Sage were very nice. They were understanding and I ended up cancelling all together because my vet was right, her bump did go away! 4 stars as they're quite expensive. A consultation just to see a doctor would have been $384 and they take a deposit of $96. I can see charging a lot for emergency but not a scheduled visit a week out. Anywho, luckily my sweetheart got better and I didn't have to take her in. Overall decent experience with their team.

    Our experience with this clinic has been extremely disappointing. Dr. Ryan Garcia diagnosed our dog…read morewith a lifelong condition that requires ongoing medication. After recently moving out of state, we realized our dog's medication was almost out and contacted the clinic for a refill. Instead of helping, we were told they "could not" refill the prescription because we now live out of state. This made no sense to us, especially since we were able to refill other prescriptions through our in state Costco without issue. We were then told our dog would need to come in for another visit before they would authorize anything, despite it not even being a full year since his last appointment. At that point, it honestly felt less about the health and well-being of our pet and more about forcing another office visit and collecting more money. What made the situation even worse was the way we were treated during the interaction. Jessica, Dr. Garcia's head nurse, was rude and spoke to us in a very condescending manner throughout the conversation. Instead of showing empathy or professionalism, she made the entire experience feel hostile and uncomfortable during an already stressful situation involving our dog's medication. When you are dealing with a pet that depends on medication, the last thing you expect is to feel dismissed and pressured financially. We trusted this clinic with our dog's care, but this experience completely changed our opinion. I would not recommend this clinic to anyone looking for compassionate or patient-focused veterinary care.

    Our dog was diagnosed with urethral stones on Friday, but he had been suffering since the Saturday…read morebefore. We initially thought it was a simple bladder infection and started antibiotics, but when that didn't work, we went back to the vet and discovered it was much more serious. They attempted to place a catheter, but it was unsuccessful, and we were referred out for surgery. I started calling everywhere, trying to find help. The quotes we received ranged anywhere from $8,600 to $15,000, which was overwhelming and honestly heartbreaking. After leaving the SPCA (where the front desk -- not the veterinarian -- suggested another option), we were told to go to VEG ER for Pets. From the moment we arrived, Tracy, Simon, Dr Lena, and the staff made the experience completely different. We were met with nothing but empathy, support, and clear communication. The staff, technicians, and doctors took the time to thoroughly explain everything -- our options, the risks, and what to expect. There was no pressure, just genuine care and transparency. As I write this, my baby is receiving the treatment he needs -- at a cost we can actually afford. I truly can't thank the team enough. And a special thank you to Arianna at the SPCA for pointing us in the right direction -- because of that recommendation, our dog made it through the weekend. If you're ever in a situation like this, this is the place you want on your side.

    If you are looking for a place to bring your cat in for an emergency, stay far away from here, as…read morethe prices are exorbitant and the customer service is atrocious. Simon is absolutely terrible, does not know anything about customer service and is completely incompetent and rude. After confirming potential emergency plans over the phone and via email with another member of their team for an upcoming trip, when my cat would be in the care of a sitter, I called back to confirm such plans 12 days later. Simon stated a different plan to me than was stated to me over the phone by another representative and was extremely rude. He claimed I was provided wrong information by the previous representative (he never apologized though!), and left me in an uncertain position of whether my cat would even be cared for if she was brought in by the sitter during an upcoming international trip to Eastern Europe! I was/am appalled! There was NO accountability for the misinformation he said was provided me almost 2 weeks prior. So, I was two days away from a trip to a developing nation, and left with no plan, and no indication from them that they would expedite the issue to resolve it. I brought my cat here on one previous occasion, and was charged an exorbitant amount to induce vomiting after my cat swallowed a small string. After this most recent horrible interaction and lack of follow-through by VEG (with Simon and the manager), I will never bring my cat here again. Nor do I want to interact with them in any capacity. This was by far the worst experience of veterinary care in more than 20 years of having cats. I promptly called MedVet Mountain View, spoke to a wonderfully helpful woman, and was able to secure my emergency travel plans for my cat in less than 5 minutes. My business has officially been shifted to MedVet!

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.

There was minimal wait time and everyone from the front desk through to the vet (Dr Guevara) was incredibly helpful and kind. We brought our ten year old cat (Reina) in for recurring upper respiratory, lethargy, and lack of eating after we were unable to get a vet appointment at our primary vet for at least 4 days. Dr Guevara was incredibly thorough going through Reina's history, listened to our concerns, and even made suggestions and courses of action for potential underlying causes of other health issues that were not related to our primary concern. I honestly felt more listened to and understood by Dr Guevara than our primary vet - and my husband felt the same way. After the appointment the tech walked me through a very thorough summary of our appointment, the medications prescribed, and methodology for administering. Was also really impressed by this because we usually get shoved out the door at this stage at other emergency clinics. Will definitely return in the future when/if emergency consults are required.

First, I want to acknowledge that the staff were kind, gentle, and clearly cared about both me and my cat. During an incredibly emotional time, they treated us with empathy, and I'm grateful for that. However, my cat was in renal failure, and I don't feel that I was ever given a clear or honest understanding of how serious her condition truly was. I was repeatedly told that her situation was treatable, particularly once she started eating again. She ended up staying there for three nights, and while I was told she had begun eating at the clinic, when I brought her home she still wasn't eating and was in very poor condition. What's most difficult for me is that she passed away the day after I brought her home, after I had spent nearly $16,000 on her care. Looking back, I strongly wish someone had been more candid with me about her prognosis and whether euthanasia might have been the most humane option. I feel like I wasn't given the information I needed to make an informed decision about her end-of-life care. I don't doubt the compassion of the staff, but I do wish there had been clearer communication and more medical guidance during such a critical time. For anyone going through something similar, I would encourage asking very direct questions about prognosis and quality of life, as I wish I had been guided more firmly in that direction.
