The details
Residents in the Sugar Land area can expect Veterinary Emergency Group, or VEG, to provide a range of emergency medicine, such as surgeries, ultrasounds and X-rays, VEG Hospital Manager Leroy Ramirez said in an email.
Licensed veterinarians will always be available for pet emergencies, even on holidays, Ramirez said. He said some ways the clinic will be different from other options include:
- Vets answer the phones to respond to medical questions
- Care begins on pet patients when they come in the door, rather than after pet owners fill out paperwork
- Pet owners can stay with their pet through all treatment stages, including surgery and overnight stays
Located in Phase 3 of the University Commons shopping center, the Sugar Land clinic will join two other Veterinary Emergency Group locations in the Houston area in Katy and Houston, according to a news release from the company. Additionally, VEG Sugar Land is the 11th hospital in Texas.
