What recent reviews say
Staff sit with nervous pets, offer treats, and follow up by phone days later. Reviewers praise the unhurried attention and clear communication, though some find appointment costs (around $95) and nail trims ($32) steep compared to other Denver clinics. Parking is tight. Recent feedback hints at less detail after a year of growth, but most still call it the best vet experience they've had.
Recent shift: One long-time customer (4+ months) noted a decline after the first year: plan coverage reduced, staff turnover increased, and appointment costs jumped nearly $100. Other reviews remain consistently positive.

Patients consistently encounter calm, attentive vets who explain procedures and pricing clearly.

Livewell Animal Hospital of RiNo
4.9(168)✓ Verified
Most visits feel warm and unhurried, with Dr. Kramer, Dr. Hoppe, and their vet techs putting real time into understanding each animal and owner. Same-day appointments are common, and post-surgery calls ease anxiety. One receptionist has created a cold impression on some callers; one owner disputes the clinical judgment given for a dog's eyelid issue and says the result was preventable damage. The clinic stands out for thorough explanations, tech-forward comfort handling of reactive pets, and follow-up care. Pricing is described as fair and transparent. Staff names that appear repeatedly in praise include vet techs Camryn and Olga, receptionist Teresa, and Kevin. One negative review disputes treatment advice and alleges upselling.
