I was going to write a mean spirited review about this place when I saw the estimate to care for my very sick little dog then I went a spent a hour visiting my dog and the care and compassion they show made me tear up, these folks care about your pet I saw dogs cats and even a rat there, the prices may leave you with sticker shock but my dog is back to her ornery old self so it was worth it read more

I hate having to come here as it means I am in need to emergency services for my little guy, but they are very friendly and always let me know what they recommend and different options before any treatment is done. I hope I will never have to come back, but next time I need to take my pup to the ER this is where I will go without hesitation. read more

If your pet is sick; don't bring your pet here; you may end up with a dead pet! That's what happened with my friend's pet. One of the doctors put my friend's dog to sleep without telling my friend. How cruel is that?! read more

I am so thankful for Sage. When my beloved 8 year old Aussie had a seizure, we took her to her doctor at Bishop Ranch and they said she had high blood pressure and gave her medication. When she had a second the next morning we took her to Sage on an emergency thinking she might have epilepsy. We are amidst the pandemic and in-shelter so being with her was not possible. From admittance to nurses to doctors, we received top notch service, always being kept up to date. Bishop Ranch was totally wrong. Not only did she not have high blood pressure, but she had dangerously low blood pressure as a result of fluid around her heart and she was diagnosed, that day with terminal cancer, and has been given only weeks to live. Immediately I was called by the oncologist and given options and now she is on various medications to give her the best quality of live. While we know we only have a few weeks with her, she is happy and thriving. They continue to check in daily, despite this crazy pandemic time, always making sure she is cared for. Thank you Dr. Lieblick and the entire team for caring for our family. read more

Outrageously Expensive. Meds especially are rediculous. $100 for anibiotics and anti imflamation pills. Another $532 to extract a splinter from Boxers gum. Nice job, well qualified if you don't mind paying out the behind. read more

Sage Is the closest animal emergency hospital to us so that is where we took my beloved Shadee. On Monday night my family and I decided to take my cat of 21 years into Sage as he was not doing well. With heavy hearts we walked into Sage and were greeted at the front desk. We were immediately taken into a nice comfortable room and shortly after they took Shadee for examination. We knew it was the end of the line for Shadee but we needed confirmation before laying him to rest. After The examination Dr. LeBlanc came in and spoke with us regarding Shadee's condition. She confirmed in many compassionate words that he was not well. After discussing everything and coming to terms I knew it was time to let Shadee rest in peace. We spent time with him in the room and we were are able to surround him as he was sent to heaven. Dr. LeBlanc was absolutely amazing. She was/is so compassionate and loving which made this whole process so much easier. I have had my sweet Shadee for a wonderful 21 years. He was my friend and companion and has left me more memories than most. Bringing him to Sage was the most difficult decision I have ever had to make. We could not be more thankful for Dr. LeBlanc and her help through it all. Because the staff was so compassionate and sympathetic we have been able to better accept it all. A few days later I received a lovely card from Dr. LeBlanc. Letting go of a beloved fur baby is always difficult. My heart hurts and will heal over time... Dr. LeBlanc, My family would like to thank you for being so wonderful. Thank you for your compassion and understanding beyond measure. I find that Great DVM's are far and few between. Thank you for being an amazing one! We appreciate you and your time spent with us. read more

I had to take my 1 year old lab puppy here this weekend when she became really sick. We were very worried about her since we thought she might have eaten poisonous mushrooms. The entire staff was extremely kind and professional. They were genuinely cared about my dog and about finding out if she would be ok. After running some tests including blood work, they came to the conclusion that she had gotten into something but that she would be ok. They really made us feel like we were in good hands and they treated my puppy so nice. She is all better now and if I ever need to go to an emergency vet again I would defiantly come here. read more

Sage is by far the best emergency care facility in the Bay Area. Dr. Steel was amazing with our dog Leila. Leila was bit by an insect spider or wasp as a result her face and throat swelled. My husband and I rushed her into Emergency at around 9:00 pm, when we arrived the staff calmly took our information and a staff member came out to assess Leila right away. We waited for about 30-40 minutes to be seen by Dr. Steel, but a staff member came out a few times to check on Leila and ask us questions that we may have. After being brought back, Dr. Steel was so good in taking care of our Leila. We are so relieved to live so close to such an amazing 24 hour emergency hospital. It gives us peace of mind knowing if there was an emergency, we are close. Thank you Sage!! read more

Very Respectful and nice when I was going through a rough time. Very helpful when it came to discounts, which helped get us through. Great staff and great service read more

I made an appointment for my very sick dog and unfortunately had to wait a while to see the cardiologist because my vet would not help my animal. I had such amazing service at Sage Veterinary!! Dr Waxman and his staff r so amazing and caring. They saved my amazing dogs life. He was in heart failure and either needed to b put down or he had to take three meds twice a day for the rest of his life. They went above and beyond in every aspect of his care!! They called me twice to check on his status!! My Ozzie is now doing so much better. He has a lot more energy and is not coughing nearly as much!! He is starting to eat and act like his old self!!! I am forever grateful for Dr Waxman and his amazing assistant (can't remember her name right now, so sorry!)!! I will always take my baby to Sage from now on!! They r so worth any extra money u might have to pay, but they r very reasonable and so kind and caring!! I highly recommend this vet!!! Thank u Dr Waxman and ur amazing assistant!! U will forever have a special place in my heart!! read more

after waiting more than 4 hours to have my puppy looked at , they told me that i could come back in the morning because it would be another 3 hours and it was already 10pm. i then came back the next morning , just to wait another 3 1/2 hours for the doctor to say she needs pain killers .. do not recommend!! read more

Our dog Harley was not doing well the last few months it was clear he was deteriorating. He was 14 years old. We knew we were coming to the end with him in our lives. He was suffering so much. It got so bad, his suffering, that we decided to bring him to Sage in the middle of the night to end his suffering. The staff was so patient and understanding. They were so comforting as well. The young lady at the front desk, I believe her name was Crystal, and Dr. Singh were nothing short of spectacular. They were so supportive, kind, and caring. As if they had known Harley for years. It was a rough night for wife and I as well as the days that followed, but it was much more manageable due to the Sage staff's efforts. Additionally, a week or two later we received a sympathy card signed by the entire staff. It was a very nice touch. I cannot say enough great things about Sage and their staff. From the bottom of my heart, Thank You!!! read more

I just got back from spending the night at TVAEC after my dog ingested paintballs. I was so impressed! The vet (Dr. Novaha) was wonderful, the techs were wonderful, the facility was wonderful. It was hands down the best veterinary experience I've ever had apart from my regular vet (and I've been to a number of emergency clinics and specialists over the years). I can't speak highly enough of how caring everyone was. They let me stay with my dog without arguing, simply because it was obvious she did better with me there. They were very kind and sweet with her, and the level of care was superb. Everything was explained in detail, including the costs. I was allowed to participate in decisions regarding my dog's care, which I appreciated. I find it difficult to have to rely on vets and techs I don't know when something happens to my dog after normal business hours, but this time I felt completely comfortable and confident in the care my dog received. I'm so glad this resource is now available! read more

We took our puppy here after a rough fall. Dr. LeBlanc, nurse, and staff were all very kind and accommodating considering we arrived after 10 pm. Very gently and methodically checked everything out and answered all our questions and concerns. Even offered water or coffee. Great team and care. Highly recommend. read more

I had to bring in my shih tzu on a Sunday with persisting vomiting and diahrea. The staff and doctor are extremely, helpful, friendly, and professional. The facility is top notch. Emergency pet care is very expensive, but I would definitely return here again. read more

after reading the reviews for the campbell location, i decided dublin should be just as good, purely based on their affiliation. i was not disappointed. i'm too sad to write more but i'll update later. read more

Our dog was attacked by a pitbull and we brought him there for emergency treatment at 10pm on a weeknight. The facilities are very clean, staff was professional and reacted quickly to treat his injuries. They kept him overnight and cost was very reasonable. Highly recommend. read more

We have been to Sage a few times now, and every time the staff remains positive, friendly, and helpful. For a facility that no one "wants" to have to visit, Sage makes the experience a little more tolerable. Their front lobby is welcoming and warm, the rooms clean and modern, the doctors and nurses kind and thorough. I won't take my animals anywhere else. read more

We took our dog here because there was something stuck in-between her teeth. The nurse took her in took her vitals and came back out to inform us that whatever what stuck in her tooth was no longer there. I really appreciated her honesty! they could have pretended she needed help and charged us, because this has happened to me before at many Vet hospitals. We left there without even paying for an office visit which was really nice, because that shows how honest they are and their main focus is providing CARE. I will definitely go back and I know i will get great care!! THANK YOU for your honesty!! read more

It was suggested by my vet to get a consultation with a specialist for my kitty who has lost weight and has thickened intestines. I went to SAGE and dropped $1700 on blood, urine labs, an abdominal ultra sound and chest xray. The oncologist recommended I do biopsies that cost between $2000 and $4000. I can't afford that nor do I want to drag my cat 2 hours round trip in the car which is very traumatic for him or put him through surgery! My vet (he has been seen by her since he was a kitten) and I decided to treat him locally to save him from being stressed by travel. I called SAGE to ask them to discuss dosing of the medication with my vet and they essentially said they wouldn't do that because they need to make money off treatment. So here is my frustration 1)I would never have brought my cat here if my vet hadn't suggested it and it was only for a second opinion 2)If I have to travel to Dublin, I'm not doing the treatment. So for them to say they won't help is only making me give them a bad review AND to tell my vet she shouldn't refer patients to them since they only want to make money and don't care about what is best for the animal. I get they need to make money, but I just dropped $1700 for an hours worth of work!!! And my dog was taken there for emergency services recently so we dropped several hundred dollars for that too. They have made plenty of money off me! Very disappointed in the 'nurses' attitude and explanation of why they refuse to just give simple dosing of the chemotherapy for my cat to my local vet. read more

I took my dog to the Tri-Valley Animal Emergency Center this morning (Sunday) because our regular vet is closed today. She had torn her dewclaw (equivalent of a thumb) and was in a lot of pain. She was examined within 10 minutes of arriving and Dr. Allan knew exactly what to do. He also assured me that it was a common injury and I wasn't a bad Mama. The front desk staff are very professional, helpful and nice...this is very unusual for a vet office. Unfortunately they only do emergency care. Even though we love our vet, his front desk staff is a nightmare. I would have switched to these guys even though it's pretty far from my house. We were also relieved that it cost a lot less than expected. There were no unreasonable charges or extra treatment to inflate the bill. If you have an animal emergency, this is the place to go. read more

My mom and I can't say enough good things about Sage in Dublin. They have been a blessing for us as we have dealt with several recent issues with my mom's Maltese, especially some very stressful and scary visits regarding an ongoing liver infection, complicated by an inflamed pancreas and gallbladder. His main doctor, Dr. Ensley, has been a huge help--very thorough and knowledgeable. And the nurse Sarah is wonderful with him and my frantic mom. All the other doctors (Morris, Nahavo, etc.) and the nurses have been fantastic as well! It is a huge comfort to know that we have his care in the best hands possible. Thank you Sage for doing what you do for our cherished family members! read more

Honestly I don't know where the 4 star review comes from. Customer service is terrible. They don't want to fill out forms that I can't fill out and was asked by UC Davis to have Sage fill out. They quoted me $400 to send some lab results in then came back and said it's $600 now. Maybe here to busy or don't give a pooh. People in this area have $$$ and maybe we should look to other alternatives than this place. They don't even respond to bad reviews. They gave a horrible diagnosis to my dog's issue. People go somewhere else for your pet's sake read more

Heartbroken and Devastated once again I had to bring my other dog to put down. As before the people at Sage were so compassionate and caring. I would come here again if need to. read more

Today was a very difficult day, we decided it was time to lay to rest our companion of 14 1/2 years, our lab, Daisy. It was early in the morning before normal hours of our usual vet so we called Sage. From the initial contact, throughout the process, they were amazing, considerate and supportive of us and our beloved pet. We were not rushed or slighted in any way. Excellent care! Highly recommend them. read more

We arrived there at 5:30 in the morning with our 12 year old kitty who was suffering from bone marrow cancer. She died in the car on the way there but the staff was wonderful and treated us with great kindness. I'm happy to have found this place - hopefully we won't have to go there again under the same circumstances but if we do, there's no better place. read more

Our dog's paw started bleeding in the middle of the night. We had visited our regular vet, but she didn't give any indication that the paw might bleed like this. So we hurried over to Tri-Valley Animal Emergency Center and saw Dr. LaBlanc. She was great. Very calm and collected. She took time to talk to us. She didn't talk down to us. She was great with our dog and treated his paw. Sent us home within an hour or so. Overall I think that our dog got better care with Dr. LeBlanc than he did with the regular vet. In general emergency centers are not cheap, so the cost was in line with what we expected. The care was excellent and I don't regret going there. read more

I work in a day practice and I understand how a emergency clinic can be expensive. But you have to understand your not going there for vaccines, your going because something is seriously wrong with your pet. I worked in a emergency clinic for 8 years, so I knew what to expect when I walked in. Atleast I thought I knew. I was so impressed by the compassionate staff from beginning to to end. Dr. Lukas saved my puppy. Honestly the odds my puppy would make it over night were slim to none and somehow they got him through. The bill was less than I had expected. I will be forever great full to all of them. They are professional, compassionate and they treat you with respect. read more

There is absolutely nothing bad I can say about Sage. As a matter of fact I signed up on yelp, specifically to write this review. It's a state of the art clinic, with all the latest gizmos and gadgets and that is always a plus, but beyond that is a staff that is top notch. Every staff member we encountered was fantastic, not only did they do everything they could to keep costs down to a minimum for the various tests and x-rays, they went above and beyond to keep costs down when it was confirmed that our pup did need surgery. But more importantly than any of that, they genuinely care about the animals that come in the door. I would obviously like to mention and thank the Doc. Dr. Morris has seen two of my dogs now, and I couldn't be more pleased. I also want to mention the tech that was working with us today. I have friends and family in the field, I myself have worked in kennels at a couple different clinics, and I own 6 pets, and Amber was no doubt one of the best techs I've ever met. Well above par on the day to day tech stuff, but also in dealing with clients, which isn't always the easiest balance. All veterinary practices, should model themselves after this clinic. Even without all the bells and whistles, this facility would still be a giant step up from some, but it's their staff that really sets them apart. read more

They took good care of us and our pet. Gave us a handwritten letter after our baby cat past away. I really appreciated everything they did for my family. read more

They are empathetic and remarkable Veterinarian Service. From the front office to the back, the nurses, vet techs and the veterinarian's. My Molly has only received the best treatment there and that puts a smile on my face. read more

We had the unfortunate situation of having to find a place that was open on Sunday to put our 17 yr old cat to sleep. Her health had been deteriorating for the past few years (due to old age) so we knew this time was coming and suddenly reached the point of no return this past weekend. We had never heard of Sage Center or used them before but they were open on weekends and had great Yelp reviews. We called ahead to let them know our situation. Their office is tucked in the back of a strip mall across from REI. Its has a large tastefully appointed lobby. The entire staff treated us gently, compassionately and attentively. After completing one short form we were escorted to a private room, that was decorated like a small family room rather than sterile vet office. It had couches, chairs, dimmed lighting and landscape prints on the walls. We were told to take as much time as we needed and to alert the vet when we were ready. They put our sweet sick kitty on a blanket covered pillow between us on the couch so we could comfort her. Our cat who hated strangers, vets, and car rides, was totally relaxed and peaceful till the end. They charged as much as our local vet does for this same service but Sage provided a far more peaceful experience. We wish we had known about Sage long before this. We will definately use them for any emergency/specialty pet care or when our furry family members are ready to cross rainbow bridge. What a great facility and staff! read more

I wouldn't think of taking my animals anywhere else for emergency or specialty care. Sage is THE BEST in the area. At this point, I think we've seen every doctor on staff at this location between our two dogs, cat, and visiting family dogs, and we've never received anything other than outstanding care and professionalism. The nurses, doctors, and techs go above and beyond in spending time to explain everything and answer questions- we've NEVER felt like we were rushed and always felt well taken care of. We've run the gamut in terms of visit types: injury emergencies, orthopedic injuries/surgery, emergency surgery for things that shouldn't have been eaten, oncology, etc. Everyone in every department is excellent. Our family can't say enough good things about the staff at Sage. The price is a little higher than some other emergency centers, but when you consider the level of care received and the fact that they are available 24/7, the cost is MORE than fair. read more

Great place. I am a refugee from the Banfield Pet Hospital where my dog almost got killed by Dr. Yoon. Will come back to me.

Sage did an amazing job caring for our puppy dog after she was bitten by a rattlesnake. Their doctors and nurses explained everything thoroughly and provided exceptional care for our dog. We even got her home early. They were amazing in a truly scary time for our family. read more

This place is a real high class vet. My dog went into convulsions late one evening. I called and they told me to bring him right in. They acted quickly to see what was wrong, however I knew my baby boy was old. They did what they could, however, they informed me with devastating news that he had advanced cancer and was suffering. It was time for my ole friend and I to part ways and say goodbye. Dr. April gave me a big hug and held me as I cried my eyes out knowing this was his time. They gave us a beautiful room to stay in and say our goodbyes and asked if there was anyone they could call and inform as to ziggy's condition and give them the chance to say goodbye as well. After we said our goodbyes and watched as my beloved buddy of 13 years was wheeled away they told me to come back when I was ready to settle our account. When I returned they told me that they had made a paw print as a keepsake. I was very touched when a few days later a card from Dr. April arrived in the mail. The card was so heartfelt and told of their sympathy and condolences for my loss. I was truly amazed and thankful for her thinking about me. A couple weeks later I received a call from their offices informing me that his remains had been received and I could pick them up. I picked up what I expected to be a box, however, when I opened the box at home I was shocked to see a beautiful wood box with his name ingraved on the front and a clay paw print with his name on it as well as some of his hair. They made sure I had a long lasting memory of my close companion. Sage is really a classy business that puts their clients first and it shows. Thank you Sage for making such a hard situation easier. All my best. read more

These guys are great, our regular vet dose not have emergency surgery services on the weekend, so they referred us to sage emergency veterinary services in Dublin ca, I was a very apprehensive at first since my vets have been our go to guys for many years, I walk in not knowing what to expect from this place, worried out of my mind and thinking I don't know this place, but let me tell you they where great, my dog is four pounds and 13 years old witch is bad bad bad for any type of surgery in the first place, they went over everything with us the good and the bad, they gave us an estimate low and high and of course in my mind this is one of our family members, i said what ever it takes to save my little man do it, our dog had to have its gull blather removed before it burst, they called us during the surgery and said they found a small growth on our dogs spleen and said since they where in their it would be a good idea to remove it at the same time, we of course said go for it. This was a very hard time for us and it's really great that they where able to save our little man. Bear is resting comfortable and out of the woods. Great job sage. I would highly recommend this place if your pets in trouble. :) read more

I have had a very good experience with this place and I attribute all of that to one of the nurses, Gina. She is so professional and compassionate at the same time. I am so thankful to have found VMS to care for my kitty's cancer treatments. read more

It's never easy to deal with an old, sick dog but despite the circumstances, I have to give Sage a great review. Dr. Nohava was very patient with all of our questions (my mom is a science teacher...) and walked us through the options for our Golden Retriever. We never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision. She knew what we were facing and was able to balance reality with emotion in a tactful manner. Thank you to Dr. Nohava and her staff. The care and compassion you showed our dog during her final hours will never be forgotten. read more

I have two dogs and I have brought them both in for an emergency. The doctors have been so kind and run tests that's are necessary. They definitely are cost reasonable and everyone is so kind. I will always go back and I will promote Sage. read more
