Our Bailey boy who was 14 years old was declining fast this past week and we called everywhere to help him over the rainbow bridge to minimize his suffering. This office was THE ONLY place that said come right in now . We had to come from Westfield. Bailey had his last car ride which he enjoyed and the tech that met my husband in the parking lot escorted them right away into a room. As they were preparing for the procedure my boy took his last breath peacefully in my husband’s arms on his own . The doctor and tech confirmed ... read more

My cat, Sophia developed a very serious case of Pancreatitis, stopped eating and was not responding to outpatient care. My vet referred me to VESH and after two weeks of care, Sophie came home. The VESH staff continued to follow her until she was back 100%. I believe I would have lost her without your care. I am so grateful. Thank you! 

Business response:

Ann, thank you for entrusting your pet to our care. We understand how difficult emergencies can be and are so glad to have been able to provide the necessary care and comfort to help Sophia during this challenging time. Please give her some extra love from all of us here at VESH!

On June 19th, 2023, I brought my dog Aiko in she was in respiratory defense and they took care of her right away. It turned out she had cancer & had fluid around her heart and lungs. They were so kind & caring about telling me & making sure I knew my options. I chose to take her home & so the family could say goodbye and they made her comfortable with pain meds & made sure that I knew I could bring her back 24/7 if our vet couldn't help when her time came to cross the rainbow Bridge. I highly recommend this practice!! 

Business response:

Thank you for your touching remarks, Jeanine. Our entire team is thinking of you during this difficult time. Aiko was precious to us and we are honored to have been trusted with her care.

Wonderful place to bring your fur babies. Very compassionate staff. I've never had to put a pet to sleep before, but did a week ago. Though it was a very hard but necessary decision, they were very patient and understanding with me and with my baby girl. I picked up Mika's remains yesterday. As I took the urn out I noticed an additional box. When I opened it I cried and cried. They gave me a paw print of my baby girl that I didn't about. I was so thankful to get that amazing gift. Thank you VESH with all my heart. 

Business response:

Renee, we know all too well how difficult it is to say goodbye to a beloved pet. They will forever remain in our hearts. We are glad that we were able to provide some comfort during this difficult time and please don’t hesitate to give us a call should you need anything.

We needed to put our 17-year-old cat down. They treated us with great compassion and treated our beloved Jaz as if she were their own. We were never rushed to say our goodbyes and every step was clearly explained. Thank you, especially to Ally who was with us at every step. 

Business response:

Thank you for your kind words. We are so sorry for your loss, Jaz was precious to us as well and we are honored to have been able to assist during this difficult time. Please know that you are in our thoughts.

Holy Dog - I gave my dog a soup bone on a Saturday night, and he loved it so much that it got stuck on his lower jaw. I called around, and there were zero emergency services available, but VESH told me to call the next morning at 5 AM, which I did, and they said they could take my seriously uncomfortable Australian Shepherd in. Within an hour, they admitted Jake, and although the initial approaches to dislodge the bone didn't work and they tried every tactic, they then had me agree to sedation. Bolt cutters finally did th... read more

Business response:

Thank you for the great feedback! We’re happy to hear you and Jake had a positive experience at Veterinary Emergency & Specialty Hospital and appreciate you allowing us to care for loved one. Please give Jake some extra snuggles from all of us here at VESH!

I’m so grateful for the compassion and care from the team at VESH Deerfield. One of my senior chihuahuas was accidentally injured by a foster dog while I was working night shift. I live in Belchertown and the closest emergency vet was VESH. I called and whoever I spoke to could hear my panic and said just bring him right in. They asked his name which was important. Chico died about 10 min from the hospital. I brought him in anyway and said he didn’t make it. They said “is this Chico?” - and it was just so personal and I app... read more

My dog Allie scraped her back leg on ice in the backyard and/or slipped on ice. She had an open bleeding wound. Took her to our vet and they wanted an outlandish amount of money to do the repair. I went to Deerfield and they did the repair for what I could afford and were so kind and caring to me (who was still freaking out from the prices my own vet had given me) and to Allie who was nervous seeing new people. They knew about the anesthesia that greyhounds are sensitive to and took their time with her and her sedation. ... read more

Business response:

Barbara, thank you so much for your generous feedback. I will share your comments with the whole team! We are so glad to have been able to help both you and Allie through this stressful situation. Please give her some extra snuggles from all of us here at VESH!
