What recent reviews say

Reviewers consistently encounter vets who listen carefully and explain options without pushing unnecessary procedures. Dr. Tande and Dr. Stephanie draw particular praise for patience with anxious pets and frank conversations about treatment costs and choices. A recent pharmacy vendor miscommunication disappointed a long-time customer, and one caller reported unhelpful front-desk support, but these outliers sit against 95% five-star ratings and widespread testimony to reasonable prices and genuine care.

The clinic handles routine shots and heartworm tags, dental extractions, end-of-life support, and even storm-day emergencies with the same calm attentiveness. Clients from across Denver find it worth the trip to Arvada.

Five-star reviewers report caring staff and thorough vets willing to go extra for sick appointments. Multiple one- and two-star reviews cite long waits, diagnostic errors (including missed masses that later required emergency care), wellness plans that cost more than independent vets, and pressure to buy services beyond what second opinions deemed necessary. Staff quality is praised; the business model itself is questioned. Dr. Barnhart and Taryn in grooming received specific praise. One customer mentioned a $320 wellness plan reactivation charge that did not deliver promised benefits. Another paid $1,000 for an exam that missed masses, leading to a week of avoidable suffering. Wait times force drop-off appointments, causing pet distress.

Two years of solid care and attentive staff earn this clinic a 4.7 rating, but a recent fatal medication error casts a serious shadow. Most visits bring praise for friendly vets, thorough explanations, and thoughtful follow-up calls, yet the most recent one-star review describes a dosing mistake that killed a dog hours after diagnosis.
