Both times I took my Toby Bear in for emergency services I received the utmost care. They are so personable and loving, they allow you to watch what they are doing and let you know exactly what is going on through the process. The first time we went my Toby had been injured on his paw and it was broken; they set it and gave me instructions on how to take care of him and to contact my vet for follow up. The next and last time I took him in the middle of the night they found a mass in his lower spine, and we had to euthanize him so he wouldn't suffer. Toby was an amazing soul; I got him when he was 7 and I loved the years I spent with him and will never forget the love and care I received from them. Thank you VEG Group, I will never forget you!

Recently, she threw up blood on our evening walk and I called the clinic panicked. They gave us a thorough review of all our options without pressuring us for a full exam.. which is quite expensive.. The vet and techs gave her an injection to suppress vomiting as well as a medication to coat her stomach. She's also quite a picky eater so the team there gave us a few cans of plain food. It's been a few days now and she is back to 100%, normal poops and appetite. No throw ups. I'm so grateful for their guidance and availability. I think the quick response to suppress the vomiting and coat her stomach really helped her heal and prevent any further issues. Thank you to the staff and team! my pup really appreciates it

Doctor Park and Doctor Nikki H were the two with us most of the time and they would make sure we had a nice comfortable room, snacks, coffee and even coloring books and pencils for my toddler. They certainly could've done their job and we'd have been satisfied, however their passion for care of (any) animal clearly showed in how much effort they put in to our visit. You'd have thought we were their only patient in the office! And when you have to take your pet to an ER you're already on edge and stressed and they did everything in their power to help ease ours. I highly highly recommend and if we ever do need emergency care, this is the place we will be - and I recommend the same for everyone else. Thanks so much!

The employees and kind and comforting, as they should be. I appreciated that. The drawback is that before they even begin - the doctor gives you a bill to pay. When any additional procedure is needed - the doctor hands you another bill to pay. This occurred a minimum of 4 times while I was there. The pressure of the bill and having to make life and death choices makes for a not clear-headed decision. I understand that they want their money. I'm sure that can be an issue - however - putting a clip board with a paper to sign and a card charger in front of your face throughout the time there became a bit much. I was getting angry by the end instead of giving my baby the support that I should have been. I don't know the solution from the doctors viewpoint - but this was not the way to handle it from mine.

She graduated some PT training with them, gave me much anxiety when her legs would hurt her, and they were always the very best at sending her home with me happy and healthy. Sadly, the last time I brought her here, it was too late to save her. Nessie was a Bernese Mountain Dog and she had hemangiosarcoma which was undiagnosed. Her symptoms the morning of her passing was primarliy lethargy, not wanting food, and pale gums. Within moments of me realizing she wasn't doing well, I got her into the car and sped to the hospital. As we were driving her symptoms got worse and I called ahead to ask for immediate help. The team was out front when we arrived and we got her onto a gurnee. I wiped out one of her eye boogers and told her I'd be right there to take care of her. Nessie sadly didn't make it to surgery. Her heart gave out before we could help her. But I know she got the best way to leave this earth as she was barely in pain and she wouldn't have liked the cancer treatment we were planning for her. The team did a really good job helping me through the hardest thing I've ever been through. My one regret is I wish I had woken earlier that day and tried to get her help faster. But sometimes things don't go the way we want. I hope if you're in need of urgent care, you can get your pup here swiftly and allow the team to do their very best. It's a hard job these Vets and the team have, taking care of our sweet angels. I've put off on writing this review as even though it's been three months, still feels very fresh to not have my sweetheart by my side. Thank you team for all your help. She was the very best girl.

Dr. Thaeder, Dr, Martic, Dr. Schultz, Alexis, Sam, Becca, Kim, (and several others I'm undoubtedly forgetting) saved our dog in the most impressive, transparent, and compassionate way that I never knew existed. We witnessed every step of the process to diagnose and restore our dog's health. If you want to stay all night with your pet, you can. If you want to watch their x-rays, they have a window for that. If your pet needs an operation, you can observe that from a window if you want. If you need a private room, there are several. Apart from the deep knowledge and passion these vets clearly have, they treated our dog like a member of their own family and he clearly fell in love with them. He's already getting back to his ornery self each day, and we are so grateful!

He was obviously in a lot of pain so we took him to VEG and he stayed overnight. He had several very severe episodes over the last decade and sometimes I would even have to carry him up and down the stairs for weeks. He stayed so strong and so silly until the very end and, I swear, came back from the dead five different times. Unfortunately I had to put him down the next day but all of the nurses at VEG were very sympathetic and he died peacefully in my arms as I whispered in his ear how much I love him. They made me an ink stamp of his paw and even put his two different types of hair in glass vials. They were so thoughtful and even hand wrote me a sweet letter from everyone who got to know him. They even went as far as adding a little heart shaped piece of paper with seeds in it so I can plant them in his memory. I should be receiving his ashes this week and I am just so grateful for everyone who helped me through this difficult transition. He was my Denver dog who I got in college and we had so many amazing adventures. It felt like the ideal closing to a chapter. I found him on my father's birthday and everything went down on Father's Day. I will miss him until the end of time, thank you so much for your gracious help.

Veterinary care is expensive, and I fully expect to pay for quality medicine. What I do not expect…read moreis to spend thousands of dollars while the underlying issue goes unidentified. I hope our experience encourages other pet owners to seek care elsewhere, ask questions, seek second opinions, and make sure previous imaging is carefully reviewed before agreeing to extensive treatment. In 2024, our dog developed aspiration pneumonia when she was just one year old. She recovered and went on to live a normal, healthy life for nearly two years. In February 2026, she developed the exact same symptoms. We brought her to Animal Urgent Care Northeast and specifically asked the doctors to obtain and compare her previous medical records because we believed this was the same issue she had experienced before. We were told the records had been reviewed. Over the course of her care at AUC North East, she underwent multiple diagnostic tests, received IV fluids, oxygen therapy, medications, and treatments. Yet, they never identified the foreign body. Despite more than $6,000 in charges, we were repeatedly told they could not determine why she was not responding to treatment. Afterward, we paid another veterinarian to independently review the medical records. Within that review, they identified a foreign body that had been visible on every image since 2024, which means that the foreign body had remained present on every set of radiographs taken since then. Image included in review, foreign body by curser. When I contacted Animal Urgent Care Northeast to discuss these findings, I was told that treating pneumonia was appropriate and that they could not prove the foreign body was responsible for her failure to improve. That is true--they cannot definitively prove that connection without removing the foreign body. What is also true is that we had already spent so much on hospitalization and treatment that never identified the underlying issue, we could no longer afford the procedure that may have given her a chance. The clinic ultimately refunded less than 10% of our bill. Tragically, that refund will be used to euthanize our three-year-old dog because surgery was no longer financially possible. I understand that veterinary medicine is complex and that no doctor has every answer. My disappointment is not that they couldn't guarantee a diagnosis. It is that despite our repeated concerns, our dog's previous history, and thousands of dollars in diagnostics and treatment, the underlying issue was never identified when it was clearly on the x-ray and explained all her symptoms. When another veterinarian found it by reviewing her records, there was very little accountability. I cannot recommend this clinic. If your pet has a complicated or recurring medical condition, I strongly encourage you to seek a different provider.

Our nurse was Courtney and she was AMAZING!! Tynkerbell licked her and let her pet her, which she never does. Courtney's kind demeanor and very obvious compassion allowed my anxious, traumatized dog to trust her which means so much to me. Courtney also explained the whole process to me; she understood our situation and took the time and patience with Tynkerbell that she needs. Her friendliness and calmness made me feel assured that my dog was in great hands under their care- which is not something I feel often!! We were treated by Dr. Brandon Reynolds who was also very friendly and informative! He explained everything in great detail, and I felt confident that he would be able to find the right course of treatment for Tynkerbell. I would highly recommend him. Overall, I would recommend this clinic to anybody looking for quality emergency care. The staff was beyond helpful, caring and just wonderful. The clinic was very clean and tidy. There was no wait time, we were put in a room immediately! They made my dog feel comfortable, which is something she rarely feels around strangers and new places. Huge shout-out to Courtney! :) A big thank you also to Dr. Reynolds and the rest of the support staff for being mindful of my dog's special needs and putting me at ease!
