    I've taken my bunny Louie here twice already and both times have truly been such a blessing. EVERYONE at VEG is so nice and so kind. The first time I went was a very hard time for me- Louie was super lethargic & of course, I was bawling my eyes out but everyone kept reassuring me they will help him & he will be okay... and he was!! While they were asking me questions, one of the women came by and put a bunch of hay for him to eat... I know it's not a big deal but that just meant a lot... they wanted him to feel comfortable. They were able to give him IV fluids & he was instantly better. We came here last night for the second time due to some weird behavior with his appetite & the doctor went over everything & was absolutely so kind & a huge blessing. Everyone always makes me feel like they truly care for my Louie & they WANT to make a difference. God bless everyone that works at VEG- y'all are truly doing amazing work. Thank you, thank you, thank you for caring for all those animals you see every single day 24/7. (UPDATE: DR. ZOE FOWLER was the doctor who helped us- she was the best. so kind.)

    From the moment we walked in the door with our kitty, everyone was so very lovely. I was so amazed at the open space, community and that all of the staff where appropriate were on the floor to interact at the patient's level. I've never seen anything like it before. It was wonderful. We were seen quickly in a separate room but the experience wasn't any different. Even though our kitty is sweet, she is semi-feral but they wired magic with her calming her down and allowing them to look her over. She was taken care of and diagnosed as well as sent home with medicine to be able to get in to see her regular doctor in several days. Thank you so, so much to Cecilia, Jane and Dr. Lefflel, for helping our kitty Google! You are all so amazing!!!

    Founder & Chief Executive Officer: Dr. David Bessler, VEG is backed by private equity firms like Sequoia Heritage, D1 Capital, and Fidelity. That matters, because the focus here isn't truly care--it's profit. Veterinary service costs in the U.S. have risen over 60% in the past 10 years, and my experience here shows why. When I brought my cat in for what turned out to be a simple hairball, the bill was $1,800--"discounted" to $1,400. To make matters worse, they failed to run a critical blood test for infections during the first visit, then asked me to pay for it on the second visit. Billing was presented in a manipulative way: two options, one bare-minimum and one extreme, framed as a test of how much I "loved" my pet. The facility itself looked more like an old car garage than a clinic--cold concrete floors, peeling paint, dirty operatories. I even saw a couple sitting on the floor trying to give their dog medicine. Bottom line: if you end up here, demand they provide reasonable pricing, but if you want real pet-focused care, find a locally owned vet clinic. VEG feels more like a hedge fund experiment in squeezing owners than a place of healing.

    I am eternally grateful for the compassionate care my dog Andy got here. He cut his paw badly and needed stitches. My dog was being aggressive to everybody but the staff and Dr. Crocker were patient and wonderful in spite of it. They let me lay beside him while he was sedated before and after surgery. One of the vet techs even kissed him on the forehead after the surgery was done despite him trying to attack her while awake. I was so touched by their love for my dog. These guys clearly love animals even the bitey ones. I will never take my dog anywhere else. Thank you thank you thank you!

    If you're ever in the unfortunate position of having to take your baby to the ER, this is the place to go. I could tell they were kind when I placed my initial phone call on Sept 25 2023. My 7 year old girl was panting and trembling at rest so I brought her in. The front desk person (didn't get their name, but they have a cool blue hair cut) knew who I was immediately and could even tell which of my family members were there to see my dog from the moment they walked in (maybe it's because we look alike). Tiffany, AJ, and Dr. Nina took care of us. GOOD care of us. They showed me her imaging and told me my girl had a splenic mass. I was DISTRAUGHT--cancer had not EVER crossed my mind. They said they're so glad I came because those things can rupture quickly. I was so overwhelmed and in shock (it was also 2:30 AM) that they took me to a room to breathe and think about my options. They were so kind and compassionate even when breaking such awful news and with a room full of other very sick patients (you could tell they cared about EVERYONE in that room). These folks are angels--their professionalism, their expertise, and their thorough-ness saved my girl. Their visit summary was everything my primary vet needed to confidently treat my girl. I ended up taking her home for the night so she could be comfortable (she hates the vet--it's not personal!) with the meds they gave us (a pain med and a med to reduce chance of bleeding). 12 hours later my primary vet said they could take out the spleen and the mass and they did. My girl is at home recovering now, she pulled through surgery! They didn't just save my girl, they saved me and my family as well. THANK YOU DALLAS VEG, THE WORLD NEEDS MORE PEOPLE LIKE YOU ALL.

    Okay veterinarian emergency group on Fitzhugh Avenue and 75 is the greatest veterinarian establishment that I have ever visited number one I had a two month old Great Pyrenees who caught parvo I came here they allowed her to live with their professional help and services. Number two same Great Pyrenees bitten by a copperhead snake about a month ago came here anti-venom.. she's well and alive. Today I arrived at 7:00 a.m. with my other sweet animal Hercules a 16 year old brown lab who was showing some disturbing signs of weakness and possible congestion. I presume she had eaten a bone and it was lodged in her digestive system. But when I arrived I was greeted by Dr Bedoya, Adriana Gianna Haley Molly Sarah and the manager Stacy. This team works so hard on my 16 year old lab who I thought was going to die only to find out after some Diagnostics that it's partially due to his Advanced age and possibly some digestive issues that they prescribed a remedy to resolve it totally within a few days. That's where sonogram some blood work and some medication I'm ready to leave this place so happy so grateful but these people took the time to treat me like I was special not to forget the terrific care they gave Hercules and who happen to tag along with us Angel the Great Pyrenees. For what I'm saying is I'm totally satisfied I've been here before I know what to expect these people are blessings. Their attitudes were unremarkable at 7:30 a.m. everybody was hard at work trying to please customers and taking care of normal routine. I'm sorry this is so long but I can't stop thinking about them and how much of a relief they've given me at a very reasonable price so that I can go on my day knowing that my 16 year old brown Labrador is going to be okay and live hopefully longer than me. So like I said there's no better place than this I guarantee it I am totally satisfied and you will be too don't forget all those people's names doctor bedoya Adriana Gianna Haley Molly Sarah and Stacy. What a team thank you for reading my review.

After a lot of research on Yelp, I landed on GoodVets Dallas Uptown and I'm so glad I did! The office is super cute, very clean, and extremely welcoming, which I greatly appreciated. We saw Dr. Medina, and she was wonderful. Her calm, reassuring energy put both me and Luna at ease, which was no small feat considering Luna was healing from a recent spay surgery at the time. Dr. Medina checked her incision, helped ensure it would heal beautifully (which it did), and got us set up with heartworm and flea/tick meds. We were both feeling like brand new by the end of the visit, LOL. Several things to note: **Parking: There's a small parking deck behind the building, but sometimes I've gotten lucky with street parking **Waiting Room: Not overly busy, and they have a cute drink station with water, soda, coffee and tea **Timing: Quick turnaround...our appointment started on time and wrapped fairly fast **Front Desk Team: Super pleasant and helpful in-person and over the phone **New Patient Perk: There's currently a $50 off promo for first-time visitors (I missed it, but maybe you'll catch it!) **GoodVets App: Really helpful for booking appointments, checking records, and managing meds If you're looking for a Vet, you may want to give GoodVets Dallas Uptown a try. The 5 star ratings are accurate, it's "Luna-approved" and I'm officially a fan!

    Unfortunately, there is not an option for 0 stars!…read more I brought my dog to this clinic because his neck had become severely swollen and infected overnight. From the moment we arrived, the staff seemed convinced it was cancer simply because he had a history of cancer as a puppy. Without pursuing other likely causes, I was told there was essentially nothing they could do. Even the oncologist on site agreed with that assessment. I asked if it could possibly be something else, such as a bite or infection, because that's what it looked like to me. That possibility was dismissed. I was told surgery was an option but not guaranteed and would have to be done by a different doctor and would cost thousands of dollars. They also told me his blood work suggested kidney failure and implied he only had about six months to live regardless. The impression I left with was that my options were to keep him comfortable until the end or consider euthanasia. Thankfully, I trusted my instincts and sought a second opinion with Alvarado Animal Clinic. They immediately believed it looked like a bite or abscess. They drained it, put in a drain tube and packed the wound, and within a month it had completely healed. They also found no evidence that my dog was in kidney failure. Today he is healthy, happy, and doing great. I understand that medicine isn't always black and white, but I was disappointed that such serious conclusions were reached without fully exploring other, treatable possibilities. If I had accepted the original diagnosis without seeking another opinion, the outcome for my dog could have been heartbreaking. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this clinic. I strongly encourage anyone facing a serious diagnosis to seek a second opinion before making life-changing decisions.
