I cannot say enough good things about Haley and the receptionist who helped me during my visit…read more I brought my dog, Wi-Fi, in after he suddenly became disoriented and wasn't walking normally. I was scared, it was the middle of the night, and on top of worrying about my dog, I was extremely concerned about whether I could afford an emergency veterinary visit. From the moment I arrived, the receptionist treated me with genuine kindness and compassion. I never felt embarrassed, judged, or dismissed because I was concerned about cost. Haley was equally incredible. She checked Wi-Fi, reassured me that his vitals were good, listened to my concerns, and made me feel like both my dog and I were being cared for. What I will remember most is the humanity they showed me. At a moment when I was preparing myself for an expense I truly wasn't sure I could handle, they ultimately did not charge me for the visit. I cannot adequately explain what that meant to me. Emergency veterinary care can be an incredibly vulnerable experience. Haley and the receptionist managed to make a frightening night feel safe, compassionate, and manageable. That kind of kindness stays with people. Thank you both for taking care of Wi-Fi and for taking care of the person who loves him, too. I walked in scared and walked out incredibly grateful. Five stars does not feel like enough.

I downloaded Yelp just to leave this single review: Avoid BluePearl at all costs…read more My dog was struggling to breathe with pale gums. I called ahead, and both the receptionist and vet acted completely indifferent. When things got worse, I took him in anyway. What a mistake. The place has the cold, soul-crushing vibe of a jail, not a place that cares about animals. The receptionist greeted me with pure attitude -- "fill this out" and an unmistakable "why are you wasting my time" energy. The vet was even worse. No hello to me or my dog. He barely listened, shrugged off the symptoms like it was nothing, and made me feel like I was overreacting for wanting him seen. I trusted my instincts, walked out, and got the hell away from that place. The very next morning I drove six long hours home to my trusted family vet of years. Bloodwork, X-rays, and ultrasound revealed my dog's spleen was three times normal size and his red blood count was critically low. He's now in treatment, but the vet was blunt: if we had waited based on BluePearl's negligence, it could have easily been fatal. This isn't a veterinary clinic -- it's a disgrace. I mourn for any desperate pet owner who walks through those doors in a crisis. BluePearl doesn't deserve your trust or your money. Run. Go anywhere else.

The first time our dog had a mass on his face. He was extremely wary and skittish coming here, even pooped on the floor from anxiety, but the staff was super calm and patient with him. They assessed him and gave us our options. When they removed the mass, they gave us detailed instructions on aftercare and encouraged us to call if we had any follow up questions. Unfortunately, the last time we went was when our dog passed. They assessed him and gave us the news, giving us ample time to grieve. Some of the staff even remembered him for the first visit. They gave us our options and sent us a card signed by the staff which we certainly didn't expect. I'm super thankful for VEG ER and the people who work there. You can tell they genuinely care about animals, and that care extends to humans too. Know you will be in good hands if you have to come here. Parking: There is a free parking lot. It's relatively small, but we never had an issue finding a spot when we came.

Called before coming here, so they were ready for her visit. I thought it was odd that the employee took her back to the exam area, but told me that they'd call when the vet was done. Waited in the car for about an hour when the call came to pick up my dog. Met with the vet, and he told me that he expressed my dog's anal glands, but also asked if I wanted him to do more tests to ensure there wasn't also something else going on with her. I told him no, paid the vet bill of over $400 which included a small bottle of antibiotics for her, and brought her home. She didn't struggle with pooping after her vet visit. Gave her the antibiotics twice daily until she was done with her meds. She didn't seem to have any lasting effects. Two things that I didn't like were: 1. Me not being able to go with my dog to the exam room. 2. Being told that there may be something else wrong with her but not being provided a good explanation about what it was.

After 16 wonderful years, the health of our dog , Jett started to decline. It got to the point…read morewhere he could no longer get up on his own. Seeing him like this was completely devastating. I brought him in to the emergency room for an examination and the doctor said that it was very unlikely that his health would improve. I was heartbroken and a complete mess. The staff was very kind to me. After deciding on euthanization, a staff member discussed the different options of cremation. I decided on a private cremation. I decided to stay with Jett while he was euthanized. The process was surprisingly peaceful. The room they placed us in was clean and calming. I was able to stay as long as I needed to. About 2 weeks later, they called to let me know that Jett's urn was ready for pickup. In addition to a beautiful urn, I also received a paw print and certificate of cremation. They even included a pamphlet on dealing with grief. Jett brought my family so much joy over the past 16 years and I'll miss him dearly. I am truly grateful for the staff at St. Vincent for showing genuine concern during my grief and assisting Jett with passing away peacefully.

From the…read moremoment we arrived, it was clear that this is a truly exceptional facility staffed by extraordinary people. Dr. Nanai is simply outstanding. Her dedication and compassion for each and every pet is evident in everything she does. The way she carefully and thoughtfully explained, our pup, Bulleit's, procedure made it clear how passionate she is about her work and how deeply she cares about her patients. In such a stressful moment, her confidence, clarity, and empathy brought us so much reassurance. Laura was equally amazing during discharge. She was incredibly patient, took the time to give us detailed explanations, and helped us get our baby settled comfortably in the car. Her kindness and calm presence meant more than she probably realizes. A huge thank you as well to Gabbie at the front desk. She was fantastic, walking me through the invoice with care and helping apply our senior discount, which truly made a difference with such a large and unexpected expense. That level of thoughtfulness does not go unnoticed. Honestly, every single staff member we encountered was remarkable. The facility itself is state of the art, spotless, and very welcoming. Despite the intensity of an emergency setting, everyone was warm, caring, and genuinely kind, always with a smile. Although this hospital is a bit of a drive from our home, it was absolutely worth it. Alpharetta Veterinary Specialty & Emergency should be the gold standard for veterinary care and service. We are beyond grateful to have entrusted Bulleit to such an incredible team.

The front desk staff was calm, kind, and reassuring during a very stressful situation. You can tell they genuinely care about both the pets and the owners walking through their doors. The veterinary technicians were attentive, knowledgeable, and efficient. They explained everything clearly, kept me updated, and handled Zoltar with patience and compassion. The veterinarians were professional, thorough, and confident in their approach. It was obvious that everyone there truly knows what they're doing. That level of competence brings so much peace of mind during an emergency. What stood out most to me was how seamless the entire process felt. From intake to treatment, the communication was excellent and the care was top-tier. Zoltar was treated quickly and safely, and I felt supported every step of the way. I also truly appreciated their pricing. For an emergency facility, their costs were very fair and reasonable compared to other emergency clinics. It's clear that they combine high-level expertise with transparency and integrity. In my experience, this facility provided a more comprehensive and reassuring emergency experience compared to other options. The organization, professionalism, knowledgeable staff, and teamwork truly set them apart. If you're ever in an emergency situation with your pet, I highly recommend Alpharetta Veterinary Specialty & Emergency. They helped my puppy when we needed it most, and I will always be grateful for their exceptional care.

After a 20-minute walk, my Cane Corso began limping in his rear legs, vomiting, and losing consciousness. I rushed him to Allied Animal Healthcare (just 8 minutes away from me), but without even examining him, they redirected me to SAVES, which was 20 minutes away. After pleading with Allied to at least check my dog, they continued to insist that I go to SAVES. Sadly, after enduring 30 minutes of traffic, driving with hazards on, and desperately trying to keep my dog awake, he passed away when I arrived at SAVES.
