Some of the Comfortable Enclosures

Inpatient & Emergency Services

We have 5 hospitalization wards with more than 50 comfortable enclosures allowing us to care for your pet if it needs to stay with us. The hospital has IV fluid pumps, comfortable enclosures for patients and even has 6 different oxygen chambers.

We are open 8am to 8pm, 365 days a year.

Surgery Suite

Orthopedic Surgery

Our clinic uses board certified orthopedic surgeons so you do not have to travel to the front range for a more complex surgery case. It is common for our surgeons to come to our hospital for ACL surgery, but our surgeons can also perform fracture repairs, major abdominal surgery and other complex surgeries.

Examine Tables

Cardiology

Our hospital is able to perform a full workup on your dog's heart to obtain diagnostic information. This includes the ability to perform an echocardiogram, ECG and blood pressure testing. Cardiology workups can help ensure a patient's anesthetic safety, as well as enabling us to formulate a specific treatment plan for a variety of heart disorders that we diagnose.

Xray with hook embedded

Radiology

We have a digital x-ray machine, as well as two digital dental x-rays. This equipment allows us to diagnose your animal faster and more accurately. Our x-rays are viewed by a board certified radiologist, and can easily be emailed to an owner or another veterinary hospital.

Abdominal Ultrasound

Abdominal Ultrasound is necessary to diagnose many disorders that standard x-rays and blood testing would not reveal. All our veterinarians have received advanced ultrasound training, and all our images are reviewed by a board certified radiologist to ensure an accurate diagnosis.

Cat Specific Care

Yearly exams are performed once yearly to evaluate your pets overall health. Our spacious exam rooms are designed to keep your pet comfortable and stress free. We emphasize the need for prevention of infectious disease and parasites for your pet with vaccinations and several parasite prevention options. As your pet gets older we offer early detection blood testing to find signs of illness before your pet is showing symptoms

Germfree Machine

Infectious Disease Control

If an animal has a contagious disease we have a separate examination room and a separate hospitalization ward for these pets. This separate area of our hospital prevents healthy pets from exposure to contagious diseases. It also allows us to effectively treat and hospitalize animals with problems such as infectious pneumonia or parvovirus.

Dental Xrays and Tools

Dental Services

Dental disease is one of the most important issues we see regularly in veterinary medicine. Tartar and gingivitis not only causes oral discomfort and pain but puts your pet at risk for spread of infection to internal organs. Our hospital has two digital dental x-ray units that can precisely determine the dental health of your pet. We offer full dental cleanings and have the equipment to perform more advanced dental procedures, such as tooth extractions, when needed.

Family Comfort Room

At Home/Mobile Visits

When scheduled in advance we can come to your home to perform a wellness visit at home, to help with stressed pets. We can also come to your home for a euthanasia procedure, allowing you to say goodbye to your pet in a comfortable and familiar environment.

Surgical Room

Surgical Services

We offer both routine and emergency surgical services at ur hospital. As your pet becomes an adult a spay or neuter procedure is recommended. For larger dogs gastropexy surgery is recommended at the same time as the spay or neuter to prevent bloat. Our surgical facilities also allow for other advanced surgical procedures. For all surgical and anesthetic procedures we use the most up to date anesthetic monitoring to keep your pet safe and healthy.

Medication room

Medical Boarding

We can keep your pet overnight and give your pet any medications it needs while you are away. Sibling pets who are not on medications are also welcome.
