If I could give 0 stars I would! I had the most horrific experience At this VEG location. I came in on Friday night with my 7 month old indoor cat who was clearly sick and unable to walk. They took him and charged me almost $2k for tests, labs, x-rays, etc. which was insane but I didn't mind if it meant curing my baby. All they did was give him IV. And they claimed they didn't know what was wrong with him saying it could be infectious or a toxin. If a toxin was suspected why didn't they give my cat a shot or something to reverse the rat poison in his body ( I clearly informed the doctor that this was a possibility!!!) They suggested for me to take him to a special clinic for neuro consult and they discharged my cat with meds. (If I told you my cat is not eating why weren't the meds given in a different form?) the very next morning my cat collapsed completely unable to move! I Quickly rushed to the clinic I was referred to but my poor cat died on the way there. HOW did you miss to tell me how fatally Ill my cat was???? I'm hurt, furious and In pain all at once. I was charged alll that money and sent home with no answers. This place put me and my poor cat in soo much trauma. If I was told from the start how fatally Ill he was I wouldn't have let him suffer for an extra day. Veterinary emergency group failed me and my cat. I'm still waiting for the medical director to reach out to me. Absolutely ridiculous Whatever you do avoid this place at all costs! read more

I've been here with my little baby twice, once before the renovation and once after. Phones in once before heading in and it was such an easy reassuring call with front desk and doctors. Both times I was met at the door by the beautiful front desk ladies Elizabeth and Sharize and another time I can't remember her name, sweet girl with long black hair, and from start to end, these women checked in on us, brought snacks and were so attentive! They were running around doing things WHILE handling the desk, calls and people coming in. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! They had a little meeting in the midst of the hospital madness and everyone had a task and everyone helped everyone. Wait was long but understandable because a lot things were definitely going on. CPR happened to a pet that was hospitalized and it got a little crazy so the ladies moved everyone from treatment to their lobby (at the time) and I thought that was very respectful for owners/ pet and those waiting to see the doctor. Now as for the doctors, they are all beautiful caring people. & both female and male doctors are quite the eye candy I've seen Dr. Roara and Dr Fong and OH MY LANTA amazing women! Very clear and took me along every step of the way. I was in the loop and I got to step out for some air and meal in the middle of my baby's treatments and they looked after her and gave me a call when it was time to head back and results were in. When I tell you THIS TEAM is quite honestly the most beautiful caos while having such an organizational understanding of what each person is doing! My goodness! Just an fyi, This is an EMERGENCY HOSPITAL, E M E R G E N C Y! Of course the prices will be high! These people are phenomenal. If I can give 100 's I most certainly would. read more

ZERO STARS! DO NOT USE THIS PLACE. INCOMPETENT, LIARS, AND MOST OF ALL HEARTLESS! They told me 8/19/2024 that my Giselle french bulldog could not be saved so I had to put her to sleep. Sold me the whole" Final Gift Pet Memorial Center - Clifton, NJ", package which should of included cremation, certificate and box, name plate and my dog's paw print. Charged me $707 and told me about 1.5 to 2 weeks to receive. They actually called me in 2 days! This was strange to me that it was so fast but I was grateful. When I picked my dogs remains and items to find my dog's name incorrectly spelled. Long story short they assured me it would be corrected. NOW they lost my dog's print. None knows where it is.... Are you kidding me. I'm devasted over the death of my dog and they cant get it right. They seriously don't give a shit and now I question what's really in this box because of all this. I want a refund, they won't. THEY HAVE NO IDEA of the crazy bitch I am, and will become. The pain of loosing my dog makes me stronger. You cannot just fuck with peoples emotions and not correct your mistakes. The Vet office and Memorial Service need to refund me and everyone else they did wrong. DO NOT USE THESE SERVICES. FRAUD! Also when I called today 8/28/2024 to find out it the paw was ready to be picked up, I was told they had no Giselle in the system..... THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY ARE DOING. Do NOT trust them with your pets!!! DO NOT USE THESE VETS IN Hoboken NJ. read more

VEG ER for Pets - Emergency Pet Hospital Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

My son's cat was taken here for emergency care. Doctor did not know what she was doing, misdiagnosed, and caused harm to cat. Also doctor brushed off concerns about abnormal behavior. Look at the contents of the 5 star reviews -- many of them are for simple tasks or giving grieving pet owners space to mourn and showing "compassion," not for the medical care received. My son's cat was doing better before the visit than after, the visit wasted precious time that could have been towards treatment of the issue. read more

I'll attempt to be succinct in this review. My friend's dog, I've know him since a pup, I'm dogsitting. Some Pit bull, his lady couldn't control. Stoopid 14 year old Maltipoo Ozzy went flying off the porch. I'd love to know what that dog barked to my Ozzy to piss him off so much! Mayhem ensued. Was a mess. Came to this place. We BOTH couldn't have been better treated. It's 3 days later and he's doing great. Me? I could use some pain meds! And, importantly in this review, I'd like to say that the fee they charged for Z's emergency care was fair. This is a good place. Staff? Kind, supportive eyes over their masks. I wish I had kids for them to marry. read more

I wish I could give them ten stars. I had an emergency with my dog Bella, I called ahead of time so they were expecting her. The moment I walked in and said her name they brought her right in. I asked if they can take her From me because I didn't want to hear her scream again and they grabbed her and let me go outside for some air. Dr. Reilly called me and explained that she had to be sedated etc etc.. I was called back in when they were done, and I was very pleased with the outcome. The entire team was phenomenal and comforted me in a very difficult moment. I couldn't be more grateful. I couldn't stop Thanking them, and once again THANK YOU for taking care of my baby, no words Can thank you enough. read more

VEG ER for Pets - Bella thanks you too - Emergency Pet Hospital Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

I can't say enough amazing things about this place. From the moment we called we were greeted with kindness and compassion. When you have a pet emergency it's really hard to stay calm and the staff here knows how to show urgency while instilling hope. Our 10 year lab mix needed to have vomiting induced and believe me this is not a pleasant process. She is also extremely anxious at the vet so besides why we were actually there she was also tachycardic and shaking uncontrollably cause she was scared :( There were at least four other dogs there and it seemed like everyone was being taken care of swiftly. They got us out very quickly without it feeling rushed at all. The assistants are amazing humans who kept the mood light and thoroughly explained each step and what to expect the whole time. Dr Rodriguez was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions (even when we called an hour or so after we left). Honestly they were better with my baby than her regular vet (at least the staff at our usual vet). Hope no one ever has to go but dogs are dumb and if your baby gets themselves in some predicament you are in amazing hands. read more

Updating my review from my last visit because a managing director from VEG reached out to me about my experience. As upset as I was, she stayed calm and was understanding -- I do want to thank her for hearing my frustrations and trying to handle the situation as best she could. She offered me a resolution that worked for me but it does not remedy the experience I had with the staff that was available when I had to bring my dog in. I will say, I do think that the higher ups at VEG most certainly do care and do not want their customers to have a bad experience but it doesn't take away from my own experience. read more

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! VEG saved my sweet girl's life after possible lily pollen ingestion. Dr Stark, Dr Gunzel, Dr Cho, and Dr Kuo (sp?) were all absolutely amazing. I received top tier care for Chiquita and updates along the way. All of the vet techs and nurses were also amazing too. I love that they allow you to come see your fur baby any time of day and walk back to spend time with them. Everyone is so friendly and empathetic; it's truly the most welcoming and caring vibes here. They genuinely care about your pets. Honestly, I really can't thank you all enough. My little Chicky is home safe & sound and it's all because of you! Keep up the amazing work. read more

Worst service ever Staff always have an attitude problem and they're very rude. When asked to speak to the Dr. that attended my Beloved Dog who Died and arrived Dead at the Hospital I was told the Doctor the Vet couldn't speak to Me . The Doctor was fiscally there in the office as per staff , but couldn't speak or see Me very unprofessional staff . read more

My dog Dawkins was vomiting blood so we brought him in at 11:30pm on a Sunday. They were so accommodating and they took such good care of him. The open access concept is amazing and I got to hold my pup while he was getting his IV and blood drawn which made him calmer and made me more relaxed knowing he was in good care. They were totally up front with what the costs would be and I found them to be very reasonably priced. I was kept informed of his status and they sent me pictures of him overnight so that I knew he was okay. They explained how to give all of his medications and sent me home with meds and the food he required so I didn't need to make any extra stops or delay any care for him. 10/10 recommend. Special thanks to Dr. Tippy and the overnight crew on 3/13-3/14!! read more

VEG ER for Pets - amazing service and was kept up to date with pictures while he stayed the night there to get IV meds/fluids! - Emergency Pet Hospital Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

Dr. Roura was phenomenal! Sitting in the back area with Peanut, we witnessed her in action most of the day and were impressed with her calmness, bedside manner, intelligence, and overall control of the floor. She and the other doctors managed a high volume of patients with extreme care and attention better than I've seen in any human ER I've ever had to visit. In fact, the entire staff was amazing! As was every other member of the staff we interacted with during our 24 hour stay. You could tell they truly care about Peanut and the other pets under their care. Happy to have brought her here from a referral from Hoboken Infirmary and that her mystery illness was addressed and healed. read more

We are newer to the area and needed to get our senior dog looked at for a possible cough / cold making it, what it appeared, hard for him to breathe with runny nose and coughing fits. Of course I was stressed but they put me at ease. They were pleasant on the phone and very nice in person. My dog is a bit of a drama queen and they were very patient and caring with him. They answered all my questions and even provided recommendations for a local vet! Don't hesitate to bring your fur baby here if they need urgent care. read more

I've had to bring my 6 year old cat here twice now in under a month for an obstruction. The staff is so friendly, warm, and welcoming. I had to leave my cat overnight there one of the instances, and I came back to find her perfectly rolled in a little purrito to keep her warm and cozy after surgery. It warmed my heart knowing that they took such good care of her. Maris in particular is so wonderful, friendly, and a breath of fresh air. If you're ever concerned for your animal and need to bring them to an animal hospital, this is your place to go! read more

I really wanted to like this place but I have been here twice already with my puppy. The first time, the discharge instructions that were given by the vet verbally were inconsistent with the discharge instructions on the handouts. The second time, I called to check in then called again when I was right outside the vet office. After waiting for 20 minutes and two pets went in that were checked in after me, I called and the nurse was like "are you in front of the office?" I was so pissed and said, "that's what I told you 20 minutes ago". After my dog went in for 40 minutes, my phone was about to die. I had to give them another number to call. Right the way, I was asked which phone number to send the payment to. It really seemed that they just wanted my money and not care about my dog. When I was speaking with the vet, I told her that my dog was throwing up this afternoon. Then she asked me if my dog was vomiting. I thought "throwing up" and "vomiting" are the same thing?! This is just ridiculous. Then she told me to pay before she can do any exams..... The vet did so many exams. When I got a call from her about the test results, she didn't tell me if my dog started eating or drinking, which was the main reason that I came here for. I had to ask her about that. And then she remembered. Again, it showed that she just wanted my money. The total visit cost me over 1000 bucks. She eventually gave my dog an anti-vomiting shot. In the end, I had to ask for what I have to do after taking my dog home. Whatever she told me was different from whatever I saw on the discharge note. She told me after 1 or 2 hours my dog will be able to eat again over the phone. However, she didn't say a word about I had to give my dog chicken and rice, which was mentioned in the discharge notes. If I had another choice, I won't come here again EVER! read more

Our 11 year old dog became very ill this past weekend- he was extremely sick, could barely move, having a tough time even lifting his head. We drove to the VEG Hoboken location and they were absolutely wonderful. They took my dog in right away and within a few minutes Dr. Rodriguez had reached out to us, let us know she had already placed an IV to get fluids into him and to start treating and taking care of him. She updated us multiple times during his 24 hour stay, answered all our questions and gave us great detailed advice on the best place to obtain follow up for his newly identified illness. She was absolutely wonderful! We cannot thank her enough for taking care of our furry family member. read more

Great care but they have racist policies for customers. They make people of color pay BEFORE they examínate your dog. All the white people got to check out after they're dogs were examined but not I. My dog got great care though... so I guess that's a plus. When I asked at the front desk if this policy was common for everyone, the front desk admin responded "we do it when it has to be done." read more

Everyone at the clinic was fantastic. I called in for an emergency first thing in the morning and we were able to get in and out within an hour. Dr. Stark was very thorough with my dog Pheobe and she provided options for care right away. The technicians were also amazing and super attentive especially when they always addressed your pet by first name. Highly recommend you trust them with your beloved pets. read more

VEG was amazing. My normal vet didn't have any appointments that day when Krissy Kat's back legs stopped working. The team at VEG took her immediately when we brought her in. They explained everything along the way and were super attentive. We unfortunately had to put Krissy to sleep. They gave us all the time we needed with her, wrapped her in a warm blanket and let us hold her as they put her to sleep. They handled the body and everything. I felt cared for and I know Krissy was in good hands. Thank you VEG team read more

I have been continuously blown away by the kindness, compassion and care shown for our dogs by VEG. We've been to both the Clifton and Hoboken locations. We have spent a fair amount of time at Hoboken, we have a blind, deaf, diabetic, 15 year old pug who gets UTIS and eye infections because of the diabetes. Every time we go in they are responsive, kind and accommodating. They always take our calls, even in the middle of the night when issues arise. I highly recommend this practice. read more

I cannot say enough good things. They were so caring to both myself and my cat Marius. I was able to visit him anytime day or night. Also them Vet said she would call me that night. I have to admit I am jaded by healthcare. My thought was, "Yeah right lady like you're calling tonight!" Within a few hours she called. She was very through and patient when I asked questions and got emotional. If your pet is sick, take him/her here. He/she will get the best care! Thank you VEG for saving my boy!! read more

So thankful for everyone at the #veghoboken @veterinary_emergency_group - their 24/7 parent policy is amazing, the staff at the desk, the assistants, the vet techs, the veterinarians, the medical directors, the traveling veterinarians, every single person we met while we were there was absolutely wonderful. I, not only appreciate what you did for Holly, but I appreciate what you do for every patient. Your facility and concept opened up what happens behind the doors, and I give you so much credit. What you do is hard. It's more than physically and emotionally draining, you're on your feet for what looks like 10-12 hours and I don't think I saw anyone actually eat a meal or something that resembled a meal. And as far as what you see as an emergency hospital.....I know I was there on a "bad" day, but I only saw that 1 bad day and it's still sitting with me 3 days later. It's not going anywhere anytime soon. You don't see 1 bad day, you see multiple in a week. I cannot imagine what that's like. So again, thank you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. read more

I took my dog, Penny, to VEG for acute back pain when her regular vet failed to find an appointment slot for her. They were highly professional, efficient, and competently diagnosed and treated the problem. I appreciated that I was allowed to stay in the treatment area with Penny - this lowered her (and my) anxiety and facilitated communication about what was being done and why. VEG also apprised me -in writing- what the fees would be in advance. A trip to VEG is by no means inexpensive but the prices seem fair given the intensive care patients are given. In my experience, the cost of VEG emergency care is on par with non-emergent care at Bond Vet. Lastly, VEG quickly supplied their thorough records of Penny's visit, including test results and films, for follow-up with an orthopedist. It is a comfort to know that VEG is always at the ready if Penny has another medical crisis. I wish my own human medical providers were as good VEG! read more

Let's face it, as pet owners no one ever wants to have to visit an emergency hospital, but this past Sunday I found myself at VEG. My 5 pound Yorkie went for his morning walk and proceeded to poop all blood. Terrifying for any pet owner I freaked out and ran over to VEG. They took us in immediately and brought us to triage. His vitals were checked and within 15 minutes Dr Roura came in to examine my pup. She was thorough and most of all soothing this overly freaked out dog mom! She explained to me what she believed was a condition called Hematochezia. She ran blood panels and her findings were accurate! 4 days later of medication and probiotics and Santino is 100% better!! Thank you VEG and Dr Roura! And if I ever find myself in the unfortunate situation that I have to visit an emergency hospital again this will be my place of choice! read more

I can't say enough good things about the wonderful experience we had with VEG. My pup was pretty badly injured and we had to go in several times over the course of a month. Everyone we came in contact with was helpful, friendly and empathic. They took a lot of the stress out of our unfortunate situation, and we can't thank them enough! I highly recommend taking your pets here. read more

Firstly, I want to thank the staff for all they did to help my dog and I during our scary emergency last night. My dog was not feeling well and I was extremely worried when I called VEG. Thankfully, the staff was extremely warm and knowledgeable. They updated me the entire process and called me during the exam (due to covid you can not go in with your pet). They answered any questions I had, were upfront about the costs (very reasonable pricing) and updated me in a very quick and timely manner (called immediately when conducting the exam which was within 5 minutes of dropping him off), they called again to let me know how long the results would take as well as immediately when the results were in (about 45 minutes). I honestly could not be more thankful for the quality care and love they gave my dog. If your pet has any emergencies I highly suggest going to this group. read more

These doctors are fantastic diagnosticians. I've been here 5-6 times cuz of my 3 dogs. They diagnosed my puppy's corneal ulcer and put him on drops that finally fixed the watering and infection after 4 months without a diagnosis. They figured out and cured my other dogs underlying infection and tonight they diagnosed my older pup's pancreatitis. They've solved so many issues for me. I love them and strongly recommend them. When the anxiety of pet sickness takes over the main concern is resolution of the problem. You need a diagnosis and treatment. Thank you VEG Hoboken!! read more

very profesional people , am happy to find them to taken my dog to this place, if they treated me very well my friend Bonnie I highly recommend them. read more

Anxious, unprofessional and messed up my dogs medicine dosage. I brough my dog here on my primary doc's recommendation at 11am. he was throwing since last night(he drank from unclean water source on our walk) and though maybe he inhaled a bit of puke. Once we arrived, tech took his vitals and said he has mild fever and he looks stable, asked us to sit. We waited for another hour before Dr Clemens showed up. She was anxious and She said "I did not have time to look at the vital's or speak to the tech as I was busy" but explain the case again. After checking his lungs... "maybe it's my imagination but left lunch sounds slightly iffy". She suggested it's better to do a blood work and radiology scan for thorax and abdomen to rule out bowl obstruction or lung issues. After which they vanished and by 2pm she discussed the blood work went on with technical details before we could ask any question she went on to say that maybe he has pneumonia or some chronic disease and continued...(to discuss treatment plan.. For 2 weeks and something about crohn's disease.. He is anemic, he has low wbc so maybe its chronic disease) She just scared us straight.. I thought patches will not survive) I had to stop her and ask about the radiology report which said he is fine. She said they could be wrong I want to perform lyme text 4dx test and maybe he has those issues. I told her we just did a wellness test this march and it was covered. She can have access to all of Patches record. (my concerns and inputs were completely deflected by her.. I told her he has these bouts of vomit if he drinks untreated water) she just does not take out input. When the radiology results came she came out to tell us although the radiologist said things are normal with thorax and abdomen.. There seems to be some stones in the bladder. And she is still not convinced it could be an infection.( it is possible that he could have ingested the vomit in the wrong pipe.. That could have caused the breathing anomaly but he is ok now... but it could also have caused bacteria to be stuck in the lungs and cause other complication.. ) She almost looked disappointed that the radiologist did not agree with her. She said.. Radiologist could be wrong... I will have to check again. By this time it was 5pm. We have been waiting from 11am to 5pm waiting for her to treat my dog for GI Inflammation. Then she suggest for patches to be kept under observation for 24 hrs and they will give IV and give antibiotics... do scan again. I did not feel comfortable leaving patches with them under their care. In the mean time my dog threw up twice and I had to clean up as there was no one to help. The receptionist asked me to clean up and I told her if she will please tell the doc. I though let's get patches to feel better, stop vomit and get him to eat food and once he is feeling better I will take him to his regular vet and deal with anemia, thyroid, bladder stone issues that were brough to us during the myriad of test performed. Because there is no way we wanted patches to stay at a place where they took 6 to 7 hrs before he could get antibiotics or any type of medicine.... Once we were home, I called up at 6pm asked about patches.. Someone at reception said he is sleeping. Then again at 8.30pm called to ask about update.. They gave me the same answer.. One word answers. I was so scared... I wanted to check but the shift for staff had changed.. I was put on hold at 11 am and nothing. In the morning I called to get update on him and left a call back. Dr stark called us to update. Said they are not sure what is causing the problem. But they are going to send his blood work to be reviewed by specialist and tell more about his anemia... I was confused... and asked why do that now. And what happened to second radiology scan. She said it could either be GI inflamation or something else.. She recommended checking with internal medicine specialist...discussed how patches does not have pneumonia.. She said if patches starts eating then they will discharge him. But this is not what is written on the chart. Also the antibiotics for my dog they sent home was the wrong dosage. Realized that only after 3 days. Called again, they apologized. My dog's care was compromised. I will never ever visit them. I had to get a second opinion on all his lab work after he got better in 2 weeks. Just the correct dose of antibiotics did him good. Spoke to our primary doctor and decided to do complete workup after he has antibiotics for 10 days. we performed complete Abdomen and Thorax scan and did ultrasound aswell. He is not anemic. He did not have pneumonia or Gi obstruction or spleen or any of the issue outlined by the team at Veg Hoboken. The Dr Jones diagnosed him with hypothyroidism(for which he takes medicine everyday) and scheduled a surgery to remove urinary bladder stones. Surgery was performed at Blue Pearl Down Patches is doing great now. read more

VEG has been my go to for emergencies since I got my dog. I started in a NYC VEG location and came to the Hoboken VEG when we moved. They love your animals so much and recognize how much their owners love their animals too. They are quick and smart. Huge hearts as well. Owners never have to leave their babies, which means so much during emergencies. They understand when I call my dog "son" and have the best energy, VEG is my go to for emergencies. Shout out to the kind, beautiful souls who work there. read more

Can't say enough about VEG Hoboken. They are there in a calming/knowledgeable presence at 7pm, 12am, or even 3am when you have a bad night of your pet throwing up. The staff and doctors at the location are amazing and sensitive. First time I really realized this was when I brought in my elderly cat with no other symptoms other than she was eating less for almost 2 weeks and she was being affectionate to me and purring loudly leading me to have a fitful sleep. No one seemed to judge me and treated it seriously even when I felt I was being too much arriving at 8am with nothing more than my cat cuddled with me last night, help! They agreed to run all the tests just in case since she is older and found out that she actually has chronic kidney disease, arthritis issues, and some other older cat issues. But, it was thanks to them taking my concern seriously that we were able to catch it early. Since then, I have also gone in for my other cat freaking me out by continuing to vomit 2-3x in each other and blood in urine, which seem to always happen at night or the weekends. Each time, they were very professional and sensitive. They don't make you needlessly wait, you can see them working on the patients before or the more pressing emergency. They also listen to and respond to all of your concerns (including I just feel weird because she's acting really different). They explain all of the instructions carefully and repeat their explanations if you are like me and somehow forget within 1 minute after they explained something. Basically, I go in freaked out most of the time and come out feeling like things are in control. I don't know what else I can expect as this is beyond my expectations. Would rather not have to go visit them but it is a relief that they are there. read more

Can't say enough about this Vet Hospital. Starting from the front desk, to the Vet Techs and the Vets themselves, great group of people. The day we went there was a dog that had a critical emergency and unfortunately it did not make it. Still everyone was professional and attentive to the owners and the rest of us that were there because our babies weren't feeling well. Huge thanks to everyone! read more

I definitely recommend this hospital overall a 100 percent they definitely have class and 100 percent caring for animals and humans !!! Again thank you so much for taking care of my dog Skyla... read more

Just got back from here and I have nothing but great things to say. Never been to an emergency vet before but heard about this place opening up from some blog and kind of made a mental note. Glad I remembered it since this is much closer than any other emergency vets. First of all don't stress about parking. I circled the block in a panic a few times but then realized that literally across the street the parking for Trader Joe's is also 24hr public paid parking. Go straight there and park only on the B3 or B4 level. We thought we were having a bladder stone emergency with our pup given her recently being treated for one but it turned out to be a less serious GI upset. Dr. Sanmarti was extremely calm, professional, and intelligent. After a very practical and thorough examination and ultrasound to rule out a stone issue he worked to suss out any other serious concerns and gave us a reasonable diagnosis of a less serious nature that made since given all evidence. We were on our way in much less than an hour and I felt totally taken care of. Doctor was well versed on latest veterinary clinical literature but paired it with first hand experience, I like that. Total pro. Shout out to the staff that took care of everything else. You guys are the real deal. You'd make a human ER proud. Pricing was actually reasonable for an emergency vet. Granted we didn't have anything crazy major done but I thought all services compared well to our regular doctor with a fair premium for the emergency aspect. Nobody tried to push or upsell anything. Focus is on animal health. Advice i'd give them about making sure everybody knows they're in the neighborhood now: Print up some fridge magnets and distribute them to vets and pet stores in the area for people to take home. I know that would jog my memory in an emergency. Especially important to mention the public parking garage across the street. read more

I had to take my cat in at around 4am. Needless to say it's always a harrowing experience taking a beloved pet to an emergency room in the dead of night. The nurses and staff were prompt and professional and thats the only reason I'm giving them more than one star. The doctor that we saw- Dr. Nadia Rodriguez - needs to learn some basic bedside manor. I was told almost immediately upon a rushed examination and diagnosis that my cat's condition was fatal.. I was already in tears and almost passed out. When I tried to get more information (I asked if their were treatment options) she said quote: "yes but they're expensive".. rude and very presumptuous. Thankfully upon speaking to others who have dealt with the same diagnosis, I learned that it is indeed a very treatable situation, and furthermore, my cat didn't end up having the diagnosis she assumed he did. (He's fine now). I understand that a job like that comes with it's share of giving extremely tragic news- it's important that the professionals hired to do so understand compassion and understanding, rather than laying a hammer blow of "you're cat's dying lol, and you probably can't afford to help him". That being said- the facility seems overall clean and respectable- but if we do have to return (god forbid) I'll be requesting a different doctor. read more

I don't know what would become of me without VEG Hoboken. My dog has had long term issues that have exceeded his 7 day stay at the 24 hour hospital and in the time since VEG has supported us emotionally and knowledgeably in the afternoon hours and weekends. I don't know a more dedicated team who doesn't view their work as a job but as their duty. They truly recognize and account for the second patient in the room: the human who is unable to make reason of what is going on. Your beloved child "animal" will be in the best hands, paws down. read more

I took my 5 month Olde English Bulldogge Louie to be seen due to an injury he obtained the day before on his hind leg. I was charged almost a thousand dollars and was told that he had an avulsion fracture. He was referred for surgery by Dr. Mackenzie Bell to Eclipse Specialty and Emergency Care. When I called them they told me I had to repeat the same process I just went through at VEG. I ended up calling Blue Pearl In Paramus and was given an appointment the next day to see the surgeon. The surgeon advised me that Louie DID NOT have a fracture and that it was just a pulled tendon and I should just let him rest. This happened on 5/29, on 6/3 Louie was already running without any issues. They almost made me put him through an unnecessary surgery, but God works in mysterious ways. I wouldn't recommend anyone taking their pet there. I wish I can post a video of him on 6/3 running back and forth. read more
