Veterinary Emergency + Critical Care

Veterinary Emergency + Critical Care VE+CC is Southern Nevada’s only 24 hour veterinary emergency and critical care facility.
(321)

🐾 Here when it matters most - for over 20 years.

🩺 The only ER with specialty care in Las Vegas.

🌎 Proudly serving Nevada and surrounding states with 24/7 advanced veterinary care, supporting pets and their families every step of the way. VE+CC, through its association with LVVSC, will provide general practice veterinarians and pet owners access to life-saving emergency, critical and specialty care doctors all under one roof. Unlike other local animal emergency facilities, VE+CC will have doctors and nurses on-site at all times allowing for continuous treatment and ongoing collaboration with the animal’s primary veterinarian. If referral to a specialist is needed, LVVRC doctors are literally down the hall.

👻 Spooky season is in full swing at the hospital!

Our squad ghouls might look a little boo-tifully different today, but the 24/7 care (and love for our patients) never changes.

💜 Spooky spirit level: 10/10 for the team — and our staff Frenchie, who remains delightfully un-boo-thered. 😉

We’re proud to be a small sponsor of Super Summer Theatre At Spring Mountain Ranch State Park as they celebrate their 50th anniversary tonight! 🎭✨

Super Summer Theatre (SST) is a non-profit, volunteer organization dedicated to bringing the arts to our community. For five decades, they’ve provided high-quality, family-friendly, and affordable performances and classes—all while promoting the beauty of Nevada State Parks.

Here’s to 50 years of creativity, community, and culture under the stars! 🌟

🎃 Supporting Spooktacular Fun Across the Valley! 👻

We’re thrilled to contribute to the LVMPD Foundation in support of over 30 Halloween events happening across the Las Vegas valley!

Huge thanks to Officers Shawna and Johnson for visiting our LVVSC + VE+CC leadership teams — and for proudly rocking our light-up cat ears while collecting candy donations! 🐾🍬

Our partnership with LVMPD means a lot to us — especially after recently helping working dog Spike, who needed emergency surgery this past weekend. 💙

If you’d like to join the fun, check out the upcoming LVMPD Summerlin Area Command community Halloween events — we hope to see you (and your fur babies!) out there in your cat ears! 💜

Cactus Jack's Outlaw Grill says they’re “stealing taste buds one bite at a time,” and after both lunch and dinner, we can confirm—it’s true! Thank tou Antech Diagnostics for treating our ER crew to Cactus Jack’s and helping us celebrate our incredible nursing team.

Tech Week Skill Feature: Anesthesia Monitoring
Our ER nurses are absolute pros at keeping a close eye on every precious heartbeat, breath, and vital during critical procedures. Their calm, focus, and precision keep pets safe when it matters most. 💙

We also kept the fun rolling with Tech Week games — turns out, this team handles competition just as well as they handle emergencies. 😉

☕️ You work too hard to drink bad coffee — and our team took that to heart!

We loved having Tres Niñas Café visit not once, but twice during Tech Week. Their crew kept everyone fueled with great coffee, good energy, and plenty of smiles.

Big thanks to Purina for helping sponsor these days and showing appreciation for our nursing team. 💙

This week we’re spotlighting one of the many skills that make our ER nurses incredible: rapid triage. Within minutes of a pet arriving, they evaluate vitals, stabilize patients, and make quick decisions that save lives — it’s a balance of sharp clinical skill and calm under pressure.

And yes — even our team’s dogs got in on the action, happily polishing off their pup cups between shifts. 🐾☕️

🎉 Congratulations to Dr. Jessica Mampe, DVM, DACVIM (SAIM)!

We’re thrilled to share that Dr. Mampe is now board certified in Small Animal Internal Medicine by the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine.

Dr. Mampe has been an incredible part of our team—known for her compassion, curiosity, and collaborative approach to complex cases. This achievement is a reflection of her years of dedication to patient care and lifelong learning.

From managing complex cases to supporting us and Las Vegas Veterinary Specialty Center, she makes a difference every day. We’re so proud of you, Dr. Mampe! 💙🐾

💜 It’s Veterinary Technician Week! 💜

This week, we’re celebrating the incredible nurses and veterinary assistants who make 24/7 care possible at VE+CC.

From late-night emergencies to patient snuggles at sunrise — they bring heart, skill, and compassion to every moment.

They are the reason our patients heal, our clients feel supported, and our hospital runs around the clock.

💬 Drop some love in the comments for our amazing team — they deserve it!

Recently, we had the chance to welcome Chelsea Kyaw Photo to our hospital to capture photos of our team and facility — and she brought her heart for animals with her. 💜

As a passionate pet advocate, Chelsea also donated her time photographing some of The Animal Foundation longest-term and shyest residents. We’re so proud to partner with an organization that gives every animal a chance to shine.

One of our favorites, Teri, the sweetest senior gentleman and longest resident, had his big close-up — proving just how lovable and well-mannered he is. (You can find his adoption link: https://animalfoundation.com/adoption/a1029455/ 🐾)

Thank you to the Animal Foundation team for the warm tour and for introducing us to long-time partner and medical officer Dr. Miller, as well as members of the admin team. Special thanks to Max and Chance for showing us around and sharing your passion for the animals in your care.

October is National Adopt a Shelter Pet Month, and we couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate than highlighting the incredible people — and pets — behind the mission. 🐶🐱💚e

We heard you!

Many pet parents shared that extended financing options would help make care more manageable during unexpected medical needs.

We’re excited to share that, based on your feedback, Las Vegas Veterinary Specialty Center and VECC have partnered with CareCredit to offer a 12-month deferred interest option on purchases over $3,000.

Our goal has always been to make exceptional, 24/7 specialty and emergency care accessible when your pets need it most — and that includes helping make it financially attainable, too. 💚

Honored to support our community’s future veterinary professionals 🇺🇸🐾

Recently we welcomed a student transitioning from active duty to civilian life — now pursuing their next chapter in tech school and eager to build hands-on skills through shadowing and mentorship.

We’re so proud to play a small part in that journey and to help provide the experience needed to grow in the veterinary field.

Welcome to the veterinary community, and thank you for your service💙

Medusa, the sweet Neapolitan Mastiff won everyone’s hearts during her stay with us. She needed surgery for an obstruction, and several feet of her intestines had to be removed with our specialty team — but she handled everything with so much strength and grace. She quickly became a favorite of our ICU, where she received around the clock care while she healed. ❤️‍🩹

Her family shared this photo of her recovering at home — lounging on her purple “human” bed, surrounded by toys, and rocking her Las Vegas Veterinary Specialty Center T-shirt like the queen she is. 👑

We’re so proud of you, Medusa — wrinkles for days and heart for miles. 💜🐾
