What recent reviews say

Long-time clients and newer arrivals alike report consistently kind, knowledgeable care across routine and emergency services. Vets like Dr. Cole, Dr. Lipkin, Dr. Trainor, and Dr. Gao earn praise for gentleness with anxious pets, thorough explanation of treatment, and personal outreach during crisis.

Two recent negative experiences stand out: one involved unclear billing for a second annual exam at a vaccine visit, and another highlighted a serious diagnostic miss (bloody stools dismissed as normal) that led to multi-day hospitalization. The second reviewer felt abandoned after the emergency, with no vet follow-up calls during the crisis or afterward.

Recent shift: One strong negative case from 2 months ago (missed serious diagnosis and poor crisis follow-up) stands in stark contrast to the overwhelmingly positive pattern; no indication of change since then

Praised for

  • accommodation of scheduling needs and same-day appointments
  • attentive follow-up and post-operative care
Watch-outs
  • double-charging for exams without clear explanation
  • misdiagnosis of serious symptoms before hospitalization
  • poor communication during pet health crisis
  • lack of follow-up after emergency situation

  • Surgical services including tail amputation and medicated pre-surgery care

Denver Cat Hospital

4.7(199)✓ VerifiedPublishes prices

A feline-exclusive clinic where most owners report consistently calm, attentive care across nine years or more of visits. Staff know cats well, handle nervous animals without rushing, and answer questions patiently during stressful procedures like dental work and surgery. Strong dental and surgical support under Dr. Rognrud, though one vet is harder to reach and less responsive. The main friction points are rising exam costs (around $95), aggressive lab upsells, and pressure to use their in-house pharmacy. One long-term client noted a shift toward higher fees and corporate practices after private equity acquisition.

Owners praise the home visit model for keeping pets calm and reducing stress, especially for elderly or anxious animals. Dr. Rahim and Dr. Goulet consistently earn trust for gentleness and knowledge, explaining procedures step by step. One client found the in-home procedures emotionally intense and felt the billing structure was unfair after an incomplete first appointment required a second trip. The practice operates across Denver with a new facility noted as welcoming. Staff bond with animals over multiple visits, offer product recommendations (Greenies, Churu treats), and coordinate with specialty vets. Service includes vaccines, bloodwork, dental procedures, wellness plans, and end-of-life care. One complaint flagged vaccine timing before lab draws and disputed travel fees as sources of frustration.
