    We found an injured baby rabbit on our patio - the neighbors cat had bitten it and it was bleeding…read more We called many organizations and rehabbers in CT and NY but only got machines as it was after hours. A rehabber from NY got back to us and recommended VEG. They immediately took the baby in and began working on it and promised to call rehabbers to take it once it was cleared to leave. They were very gentle and you could tell they really cared. I am happy to know they are there and highly recommend them

    It is wonderful to have a place to go late at night when an emergency arises, and this place was…read moregreat. The facility is super clean, and staff was compassionate and professional. Unfortunately, my dog was diagnosed with a heart murmur which I was unaware of, so they did not feel comfortable giving her the sedation she needed to take proper X-rays of a possible hip or lower back injury, which was a bit concerning. We did have a long wait, but to be fair, it was a rough night there and there were pets there with more significant injuries, so I appreciated their prioritizing them. They were able to administer pain meds though, which helped my dog feel much more comfortable overnight until I get her in to see her regular vet the following day. The bill was a bit high for just a preliminary evaluation, a basic cbc, and one shot of pain killer but it was worth having some peace of mind that my dog was seen and in far less discomfort overnight. I would definitely go back if I needed to, as the care she received was prudent and they were honest with me about their concerns about the risk of sedation for my particular dog.

    What an incredible group of people!…read more My dog is susceptible to pneumonia and when he had a wet cough on a Sunday, I knew it couldn't wait for his primary vet on Monday. In the past we went ton other emergency vets and unfortunately it was always a long wait, you were away from your dog the entire time, and they wouldn't release your dog to you until after you paid. VEG is different than all those places. We were seen immediately and while they do have an open concept ER, they gave us a private room just in case. The nurse (Diana) and the vet (Dr. Schwartz) were all incredible. They took such good care of our dog and us! They allow you to be with your pet during X-rays which I found amazing. No paying first then waiting for your pet to be discharged. You're as hands on as you're comfortable being. Amazing place.

    What is there to say besides don't trust this place with your pet, your time or your money…read more To say we had a negative experience would at this point be an understatement. The behavior this practice has exhibited has been avoidant, evasive and disappointing. I called distressed after my dog was having complications healing from surgery after a lipoma removal. We arrived on a busy Sunday and were taken at the end of a triage. During our time there I voiced to MULTIPLE techs that my dog was bleeding through his gauze. 2/3 responses were a deadpan stare and the words "ok". It took 3 times of me asking/ pleading for someone to listen to me. Even then I was armed with loose gauze and a wee wee pad. When we were finally seen I was so relieved i let this all fall away. I was so happy my pet was taken care of I went home following their orders and protocol. The next day I realized all the sutures at the site had fallen out and we were back at square one after spending hundreds of dollars. Naturally I was upset and placed a call to the location. I was placed on an infinite hold 3 times with no answer until i called from my friend's phone to which they picked up immediately. I have been calling every day since Monday with not a single person giving me a call back or without any financial compensation for the negligent job they did. I have given them since Monday to give me a call back and fix this. I've called every day without a call back. So if you don't care about your pets or spending unnecessary money this is the place for you!

    WENT IN FOR VACCINE AND WAS INJECTED WITH WRONG DRUG. My dog…read morewas here for a simple vaccine visit. I was not even offered the chance to go into exam room with her. Next thing I know a vet comes out to tell me she was accidentally given the wrong medication - Librella - a drug for arthritis - which she does not have. I was not told how such a serious mistake could have happened or what steps would be taken to prevent something like this in the future. Instead, I was offered an apology and a Librella pamphlet with dozens of possible side effects to look out for. Hardly reassuring given an error of this magnitude. I trust a veterinarian with my dogs well being, and mistakes like this are unacceptable. Whether it was negligence, poor communication or disregard for accountability, it says alot about this clinics internal standards. There are plenty of other reputable veterinarians in the area, I will be seeking care elsewhere Im sure they will offer some canned response to this post but they will not be able to deny this happened.

    We've been taking our pets (5 dogs, 3 cats) here for almost 25 years. We loved Dr. Lovers and were…read moresad when he retired, but their current doctors are also amazing. Dr. Schmidt literally saved our bulldog's life when he had heat stroke and we rushed him there while he was seizing. Dr. Gordon is great, as are all of the other Dr.'s we've seen. The front desk is always friendly and professional. ALL vet care is expensive (we've had multiple surgeries and specialists), which is why we make sure we have good Pet Insurance, so we don't have to make medical decisions based on price.

    I am absolutely outraged! In April 2026, my 12-year-old Yorkie, Princesa, was diagnosed with a…read moreurinary tract infection and kidney crystals following a urinalysis and X-ray. Dr. Lesko handled the treatment. She prescribed Clavamox, but it didn't work; the vet recommended switching her diet to a wet food specifically for kidney issues--which I did (using the Hill's brand)--but that didn't help either. I returned to the clinic because she kept urinating excessively; the doctor prescribed more Clavamox and nothing else. On my own initiative, I bought a supplement (potassium citrate) to help her and informed the vet. I waited nearly three months for an appointment with her regular vet, Dr. Hernandez, which took place last Wednesday (the 15th). He wanted to repeat the urinalysis and said that if bacteria were detected--which he expected--a culture would be necessary. Princesa has been losing her appetite since the last vet visit, and yesterday (the 17th), she refused to eat anything. I had to syringe-feed her last night. Early today, I noticed a pinkish tint to her urine; she didn't want to eat, and I found a small amount of vomit on her blanket. I am taking her to the veterinary emergency room, even though I already have an appointment scheduled with her regular vet for Monday (the 20th). WHY? Why didn't Dr. Lesko requested a culture instead of just making assumptions? She put my little one's life at risk; we lost so much time waiting for the appointment with the vet I trust, and her condition only got worse! On top of that, my 2-year-old Jack Russell, Bela, was refusing food, vomited once, and had diarrhea once. They ran tests, X-rays, and ultrasounds (expensive procedures), and she was "diagnosed" with pancreatitis (a condition that isn't usually that serious in dogs)--a diagnosis that was likely incorrect, given that she improved once I stopped the medication. The vet prescribed a multitude of drugs; I went to the clinic to see if they could provide an appetite stimulant. She didn't get better. I started giving her dry kibble--which she eats--alternating it with chicken (the only meat she accepts, aside from chicken hearts). At our last appointment, I mentioned the difficulty of getting Bela to eat, and on my own initiative, I bought *Sovereign Silver* to improve her health; but Dr. Lasko told me that if Bela didn't eat, we would have to put her down... What kind of nonsense is that? What sort of vets are you hiring to care for our animals? There are now two vets at the Stamford Clinic who will never, under any circumstances, treat my pets! My appointment with Dr. Hernandez was cancelled without my knowledge; thank goodness I called to confirm everything was set, and to my surprise, it wasn't. Brianna was kind and managed to find a slot, since my dogs really needed the care. Furthermore, the app is terrible. It takes forever to load, doesn't show all the information, and even though I have an appointment scheduled, it indicates that I don't have any! It is not the first, not the second, not the thrid time I get there on that and that incident happens, and they keep me waiting half hour, without none coming to question me. I have to go to the front desk and complaint about it. Disrespectful!

    Hands down the worst clinic I've been to. If you're 5 minutes late, they'll say you're out of the…read more15 minute window and can't be seen. They dont take accountability for their actions. Specifically Dr. Madeline Lesko. STAY AWAY. Some of the other doctors are ok if you're lucky to get them.
