SAGE Veterinary Centers

We happened to bring our dog here from San Francisco when she fell ill in the middle of the night. We are so glad that we did, as we are certain that the knowledgeable, kind, and fast acting staff at SAGE saved our dog’s life. They understood the emergent situation and provided her with an accurate diagnosis quickly. We were provided frequent updates and were treated with compassion and respect during her 7-day hospitalization. We really felt that our dog was in the best hands possible. We are forever grateful to the staff at SAGE for saving her life.

Sage Veterinary Clinic in Redwood City is THE best emergency care hospital! They are professional but caring and always respond quickly to an emergency. I've had 3 dogs I've taken there for care. Each time they have treated my animals promptly and made me feel as if they loved my dogs as much I do. Their prices are reasonable as well.

Clear communication, caring staff, competent care

I made a same-day appointment with the urgent care clinic to treat my dog’s eye infection. Local veterinarians offered appointments in October, which of course was not practical. My experience with Sage was nothing but positive. The charges were clearly presented before the appointment was scheduled. (Despite what one reviewer claimed, I found Sage’s charges to be in alignment with the other 24-hour emergency pet clinics that I have visited in the past.) Also clearly communicated was the procedure for check-in, as covid measures are in place.
During the visit, vet tech Kristin took a thorough health history before taking my dog into the clinic, and even returned my dog to me, at the car, so he could wait in peace with his ‘mom’ while our visit was processed. Similarly, Dr. Sara was professional, caring, and kind. She shared with me her findings and plan for treatment, and answered my many questions. We were seen at our appointment time, and done with the visit quite quickly. I do understand that should there have been a delay, it would have been due to a more urgent case needing attention. As a pet owner I would be fine with this; were it my pet in need of critical care, I know they would be prioritized. As it was, my case was not critical, and I was glad to have an option for care sooner than October. Thank you, Dr. Sara, and staff at Sage.

Sage provided excellent care for my cat when he came in with kidney failure. They were professional, caring, and upfront about their pricing (which was less than some other facilities we have been to). What's more, they did not advocate doing every possible medical intervention- they really tried to figure out what was best for the animal.

I brought my senior dog to Sage on Friday. They were incredibly busy, but maintained a caring and thoughtful approach. Although I had an outcome I don’t wish on any, Dr. Hammer was personable, professional and not afraid to tell me what she would do if my “Momma” was her own. I appreciate the honest and direct approach and assurance that I was making the best decision. When the time came she was calm and provided clear communication of what was to come. It’s never easy to say goodbye, but Dr. Hammer and her associates were compassionate, professional and supportive. I highly recommend Sage for regular care and/or if it’s time for you to say goodbye.

RIP “Momma”
