The one thing about VEG is the open door policy except during X-rays... otherwise you can see what's going on with your pup from bring given anesthetic , through the whole procedure and till they wake up. There may be a bit delay at first which once I voiced my concern they were able to switch things around and doing 2 different procedures on 2 patients at once. Yes they did have 2 vets ready that night. And were taking 9pm onward. They managed to successfully find and remove the skewer by scope procedure and stay for another hour to be monitored before we left to go home at 3am. Thank you, VEG!

Had to make the difficult decision of sending her to heaven, and they were sympathetic and willing to help me in any way, during that difficult time. I'm sorry, I don't recall the names of the physician or staff, but I want to say thank you to all of you! Highly recommend this facility. Bella and I send our love and many thanks.

Our first visit to this company with one of our cats who had a severe condition I must say this…read moreplace is exceptionally clean in the lobby. The examining rooms were very clean, although my cat was very nervous, but I think that's typical cat anxiety, and and stress when they're in a new location for the first time even on a follow up visit. My cat was still very nervous. The staff extremely courteous, very professional of what I like the most is they follow up promptly via text phone and email slightly expensive but we will be going back clean restrooms. Parking is very tight.

This was our second appointment with Just Cats Clinic. The place itself is adorable and I…read moreappreciate that it exists as an option for cats that are fearful of dogs. It's also nice that they have other services available so a cat can recognize the smell if they do boarding/vet/other services. Every person I've interacted with that works at Just Cats is pleasant and makes sure you get everything you need. We'll be staying with this vet!

Best 24-hour animal hospital I've found so far…read more The front desk staff were excellent, especially when you're arriving in a panic during the middle of the night. My mom and I rushed in with her cat after she thought he might have had a stroke. The staff quickly spoke with us at check-in and explained the process: they would take him to the back exam area first to evaluate him. If he was stable, they said the wait time to see the doctor would likely be around three hours. We were taken to a room shortly after arriving and ended up waiting about three hours before seeing the doctor. Since we were waiting that long, we assumed he had been determined to be stable, which helped ease our minds a bit. The staff did offer us something to drink, and the front entrance being locked at night definitely makes the place feel safer during late hours. One small improvement I would suggest is checking in periodically with people waiting in rooms, especially during longer waits like ours. Even a quick update after an hour or two would go a long way in helping anxious pet owners feel reassured. Another tip for visitors: keep your exam room door closed if possible. We left ours open because we were seated right across from the exam area, but we could hear several emotional moments from other pet owners, which made an already stressful situation feel even heavier. While waiting, I looked up some of our cat's symptoms and saw that they could align with feline vestibular syndrome (cat vertigo), especially since he had received flea medication about a month earlier. Reading about that possibility helped calm us down while we waited. When the doctor came in after about the three-hour mark, they diagnosed him with cat vertigo, which was a huge relief compared to what we initially feared. They also mentioned hearing a possible heart murmur and recommended a dental cleaning along with follow-ups with a feline cardiologist and neurologist for additional peace of mind. They offered a head scan for about $1200, but because of the potential heart murmur they explained it might not be ideal to do under anesthesia and could produce limited results. We ultimately declined the additional treatments and paid the diagnostic exam fee for $200 something and took him home. The next day, my mom followed up with her regular vet, who didn't detect a heart murmur. They hypothesized it may have been stress from the situation. Overall, despite the long wait, we were happy with the visit and grateful they were there when we needed emergency care. Finding a reliable 24-hour animal hospital can be difficult, and this one handled a stressful situation with professionalism and compassion.

I recently had my worst nightmare happen when BOTH of my dogs needed emergency attention at the…read moresame time. I got checked in and was in front of a vet within 20 minutes; this has never happened to me at an emergency vet before (I should've come here!). They were able to give me answers very quickly and sent me home with one dog and kept the other for two nights. During that grueling 48 hours, I called every four hours to check on Kina and each and every time I was provided with an actual solid update on her condition. Every single staff member met me with compassion and kindness while I was freaking out about my little girl. The staff here saved her life and then sent her home clean and even returned the THREE(!) blankets that I brought for her to lay with. By this time, I did not even care about the blankets, I was fully prepared to never see them again. I just wanted my dog back home with me, and boy did they deliver. From the bottom of my heart, thank you so so so much to MAEC. I hope I never have to come in again, but if I do I know I'll be in good hands.

Our previous vet has had serious staffing issues, so we went to EMMAvet for urgent care for our…read more19-year-old senior kitty. We made an appointment, and before we arrived (same day) they had retrieved her records from our previous vet. The urgent care vet had read through the last few years of her history, we barely had to explain anything. EMMAvet has lots of testing facilities on site so we didn't have to wait too long for results. They gave us multiple treatment options, but they were honest about our cat's condition. Soon after, we determined it was time to euthanize our kitty. They have a special room for this, with comfortable chairs, Kleenex, and options for pet cremation containers if you want to get their ashes back. I really appreciated that they went through all the options and fees at the beginning. We paid before we had to go through the emotional euthanasia process, so we had alone time with our kitty in the last moments, and when she was gone, we could just leave. We experienced so much kindness and compassion from all the staff. It's also very clean and attractive. I only wish we'd found them sooner.
