What recent reviews say

Reviewers drive from across the Denver region and consistently report feeling heard and genuinely cared for by named vets like Dr. Cara, Dr. Ross, Dr. Paige, and Dr. Tony. Staff help anxious and reactive dogs feel safe, offer transparent treatment options without pressure, and manage euthanasia and pet loss with time, dignity, and aftercare.

One serious complaint documented a geriatric dog whose critical anemia went untreated despite alarming bloodwork, and the family received no follow-up contact. Most other reviews praise the practice's willingness to accommodate individual animals, fair pricing, and emotional support through difficult medical decisions.

Common questions

Can Fox Hollow accommodate a dog that gets stressed around other animals?
Yes. They have a 'rock star entrance' that allows reactive dogs to enter separately and avoid contact with other pets in the waiting area.
Do they provide updates during surgery?
Yes. Reviewers report receiving communication and updates throughout their dog's surgical visit.
How do they handle end-of-life care?
Staff take time to explain the euthanasia process, allow family time with the pet before, during, and after, and some reviewers report in-home end-of-life options where families can take their pet home to say goodbye first.

Foothills Animal Hospital

Long-term clients and newcomers alike praise Foothills for vets who take time to listen and explain treatment options without pressure. Dr. Brittany Miller and Dr. Jen stand out for combining expertise with genuine empathy; staff consistently comfort anxious pets. A handful of customers report sharp front desk interactions and miss the friendlier tone under previous leadership, though the overall care experience remains strong. The hospital offers in-house diagnostics, ultrasound, dental work, and orthopedic surgery alongside routine wellness. They've built trust over decades, with some clients returning 20+ years. Fair pricing on vaccines and office visits surfaces repeatedly, though bloodwork costs surprised one customer initially. Their willingness to suggest diet changes and non-medication options shows a holistic approach to pet health.

Reviewers consistently praise the veterinarians, especially Dr. MacKenzie, Dr. O'Connell, and Dr. Jill, for patience and compassionate care. Staff calm nervous pets and explain options thoroughly. However, complaints center on front desk rudeness, surprise billing at checkout, and uncalibrated scales. Some flagged treatment delays for clear infections. Location near Lakewood offers easy parking and walking access.

Evolution Veterinary Specialty and Emergency Hospital

Evolution draws loyal repeat customers for emergency and specialty care, especially palliative and cardiac cases, with staff who learn patients' names and show genuine emotional investment. Yet reviews split sharply on whether expertise matches cost: some praise thorough diagnostics and compassion during euthanasia, while others report medication mistakes, dismissed concerns, hours-long waits without updates, and bills reaching $6,000+ with little explanation or attempt to discuss options upfront. Triage interactions particularly damage trust, with reports of eye-rolling and rudeness that clash with the warmth customers praise elsewhere. A cardiology cardiologist is noted as largely unavailable despite high fees. Several reviewers describe feeling their wallet mattered more than their pet's welfare, and communication gaps-unprescribed antibiotics, procedures never discussed, test results unexplained-recur across different departments.
