Great place and wonderful people. I'm new to them and switching vets wasn't an easy decision, but they've made the transition nice.

Greedy. No reason to charge three times the amount as other vets. Tired of overpaying. Moving my pet family to another vet hospital that isn't about overcharging owners who take care of their pet family. read more

Poor care of dogs. Poor diagnosis. Upcharge on every possible turn. Poor customer service and support.

IF YOUR PET IS VERY ILL STAY AWAY! I can't believe what happened to me and my little kitty cat. They literally told me they would hospitalize my pet for the week and quoted me a price. They then stole $750.00 from me when I thought they would do everything for my cat. I thought if she perhaps needed a blood transfusion, they would have the means to do so. Oooops nope! Silly me! So my sweet cat that was only 1 year old was brought back to me, I was forced to pay them another 750.00 for the doctor to say well your cat has a 20% chance to live and she definitely needs a blood transfusion. Well hello Doc! Aren't YOU supposed to CALL me and suggest that? Perhaps tell me you are no longer able to give my pet what she needed? NO! You wait until 6 pm to give her back to me with zero chance to look elsewhere for help. Everytime someone asks me if I know of any good Vets in the area. I won't be advising to go here. This place has really broken my trust in veterinary care. They bring you in, promise to take care of yourself pet then charge you frivolous amounts of money for nothing! The same day I brought my sweet kitten home, I took her from her carrier and she immediately died in my arms. You SHOULD of called me earlier if she needed to go somewhere else to get a blood transfusion, guess you guys decided that my cat wasn't worth saving since you kept telling me she was going to die, when she appeared to be fighting to live? Hope you enjoy the money you stole from me! The Dr. we saw was very confusing and I should have not trusted him at the beginning. My cat could possibly still be alive. Thanks for only caring about how much cash I had on me instead of my pets life and welfare. If your pet needs a true Urgent Care situation PLEASE GO SOMEWHERE ELSE! I was misled and trusted these people. On Monday, I called them to try and tell them my cat had passed on. Ended up hanging up because I was stuck on hold for over 10 minutes. At that point I felt like I must be just a number. My crying went on deaf ears and wasn't important. Now my sweet cat is resting peacefully in her grave. Fly high little one! See you on Heaven's highest hill. read more

My experience with Cherry Creek Vet was very positive. I took our first foster Weimaraner for Nor Cal Weimaraner Rescue in for her first vet visit. The staff was friendly, caring, and professional. I had read some of the negative reviews since the ownership change but happily recommend this business. read more

Since Dr. Codde sold, the business has gone to ....They are nothing but money grubbers/grifters. I've had my pets to them. I get NO diagnosis of obvious problems. I'm told I need to pay hundreds of dollars for tests--for what? I'm in the process of switching all of my pets to another vet. A friend just told me she took her old cat in to be euthanized. They demanded a $600 fee--for the vet to determine if the cat was sick enough to be put down. Disgusting. read more

Sad that I am having to write this. I have been going to Cherry Creek for over 20 years. We took our old dogs there and I have took my current dogs for over 5 years. Since the place was bought and went under new ownership, it has changed. It went from a caring, loving office that focused on the pet health, into an office looking how to get every penny you have. They push medicine and shots but don't explain them. If you try to order outside from them for prescriptions, they sometimes take too long and the Costco or chewy cancel the order. I miss the old doctors that sat on the ground with your dog to make them feel safe and loved. Not the new male doctor that didn't care at the last exam to talk much or pet my dog and she was so scared that she peed on the floor. I am done with Cherry creek. I rather pay more to trust the vet and go somewhere that actually has doctors and workers that care. read more

I brought my own resident dogs to this vet for nearly 10 years until we recently moved out of the area. Dr. Cowles, Dr. Cotti, and the front desk staff were always wonderful. Throughout the years living in North Sacramento, we also came across many strays, had strangers drop unwanted pets off on my porch (and one time a box of kittens), and fostered several dogs through 2 different rescues we worked with. Needless to say, our chart had a lot of different animals in it from the various rescue efforts and our own pets. Not once did Cherry Creek ever mix up a record or try to double vaccinate a pet. Every single time we brought our resident or foster animals to this vet, they remembered the pet, they remembered us, and they absolutely treated every animal like they mattered. We never once had any administrative difficulty and communication was clear, concise, and noted down in the record for future reference. Pricing was always fair and everyone was always friendly. Our biggest regret in moving out of the area was leaving this gold standard veterinary practice. read more

Our search is over for a veterinarian to spay our grand dog. We used to board our Maltese here back in the day. We've always been pleased with the service and care you get at Cherry Creek. When we had a not so good experience with the SPCA on getting them to spay, Bridget W reached out to suggest Cherry Creek. I had them in mind already but I appreciated her for reaching out to me. It's so nice to have caring Yelp friends! We called a lot of vets in the area and most places charged an outrageous amount! There were places less costly but they were booked out for months. So, we chose Cherry Creek! We brought our dog in early morning and picked her up late afternoon. We paid extra for pain meds and she was quite groggy for the rest of the evening. She was sent home with the typical plastic cone but we found a comfy pillow that fits around her neck on line. I highly suggest that because it's more comfier than those plastic ones! The staff here was very caring and professional. They called to check on her the following day and even sent her a handwritten Get Well card! She is back to her old self now and we're so glad to have gotten her spayed. As responsible dog owners, I feel it is our responsibility to help control the shelters who are burdened with so many unwanted animals. Thank you, Dr Codde and Cherry Creek! You gave our dog the best possible care and we are extremely happy! read more

My previous vet wanted $600 to neuter the golden retriever I inherited so I started calling around. Prices varied but were still ridiculous, until I got a recommendation to call Dr. Codde at Cherry Creek. From the very first phone call for a quote to the follow up after the procedure, my experience was absolutely wonderful. Everyone was super friendly and caring. Good vibes right from the start. When I asked to meet Dr. Codde she came in right away to answer my questions and was very personable. I was never rushed nor pressured for add-on services or extra (unnecessary) medication, which I really appreciated. Days later, when I had a concern that one of his stitches might have come loose, I was able to email over a picture to Dr. Codde to see if I needed to bring him in. I was promptly called back and told that what I saw was perfectly normal. And it was. Over the years with my animals I have had both good and horrific experiences with different veterinarians, but this by far was the best first impression I have ever had. My final bill was even cheaper than the low cost option from the SPCA and surprisingly even a few bucks less than the original quote. I also found it a nice gesture that on top of the check-in call I got from the vet tech, I also received a handwritten card in the mail welcoming me to their practice and a short background on the staff. Best of all, he's all healed up like nothing happened :) It just so happens that Dr. Codde runs a golden retriever rescue too - in case I needed yet another reason to know I had just found the right vet. I would 100% recommend Dr. Codde and Cherry Creek to anyone looking for a quality vet that's reasonably priced. read more

Several years ago my little Toy Poodle had a pre exam to get her dental cleaning, at which time they discovered three lumps by her mammary glands. We made an appt. to do the dental cleaning and remove the three growths at the same time so she would only have to be put under anesthesia once. Well at the end of the day I go to pick her up and the paperwork says they only removed two growths. they weren't expecting me to read the paperwork? I questioned it and they said they couldn't find the third one. This procedure at that time cost me upwards of a thousand dollars. So I crossed my fingers at the time, even though I was angry, and prayed that the one they left in there wouldn't develop. This was before I knew about all the damage vaccines do to our pets, and on top of that my little girl Bubbie had a compromised immune system to begin with. Last year the lump exploded and grew at an alarming rate, one of those nasty grissely ones , For a time it seemed to stop growing, then it took off again. Today she woke me up at 6:00 in the morning acting really wonky. I could tell it was past time to put her to sleep....so that very same Vet wanted to charge me $390.00 just to administer an injection that would end her life in 30 seconds. I said no way. Then called another vet I'd never been to before and they wanted $115.00 up front for an office visit before I even set foot in the hospital to do the euthanasia! read more

I can't help but feel I was completely let down by this place. While I know it's not their fault my dog has passed on, I feel I was taken advantage of. Meika came in for shots and in a few days she fell so ill. She could hardly walk, was not eating and doing awful. They recommended a few things but then she began to do worse and we brought her back and was told it was old dog syndrome but she may improve. She didn't so I asked if we should do blood tests. They said yes. . . We did. The tech said I should get a call the next day Saturday with the results. I called a few times but was told the vet was out until Wednesday. My dog died Sunday night after a horrible seizure. I just feel like I was taken advantage of. As my dog was dying but then paid $400 just for blood tests to come back after she was already dead. It feels unfair. I know I'm grieving but it's frustrating and even more so because the vet called to go over the blood results despite me calling on Monday to let them know that she died. I feel really disappointed. I miss my dog so much and I can't help but feel like if I went somewhere else she wouldn't be dead. . . read more

Dr Parker was great and the front office is amazing. I'm not sure what changed, I had to come back to this spot to to location and the only place I could get my sick cat into- I'm glad I did, I absolutely would recommend for your beloved animals- aka for Dr Parker she will make your trip to this hospital- she is amazing, cares for both you and your animals. She is an amazing young Lady and we need more of her in this business. read more

I've been with this hospital since we moved last year. We had been seeking a vet. So far Dr. Codde has been extremely amazing. We are always so happy to see her! The vets here are all detailed and are very through. The prices are reasonable and they are local to us! Out of all the vets we have ever seen, Dr. Codde has been steadfast in her positivity and energy. We were told by many people our dog was super anxious and didn't do well letting strangers touch her. Dr Codde was able to keep her calm and even remove the foxtail off her paw without needing to put her under! We will continue to trust Cherry creek with our animals. Of course one of reason that this place is so busy is because it is that good. Thank you staff at cherry creek. read more

I came in with an emergency my dog cut his foot open really bad and we were freaking out. They took him back and kept him very calm, they knew what to do immediately. They even gave us towels and stuff to clean ourselves up and reassured us our sweet boy was going to be ok. This was a really scary situation and they were so amazing taking us in without any warning. read more

We used to LOVE Cherry Creek when Dr. Codde and Cowles were there. Dr. Cowles saved my Buddy's life and was so compassionate. Now, they are very cold and non-caring. They only seem to be after the money...Almost $30 for a nail trim?! The assistant was very arrogant, and he was trying to get me to get all these vaccines. Then the doctor came in to do the yearly check and barely even checked my dog out!! She did not look in his ears, check his mouth, or press on his stomach. She seemed very inexperienced. So $142.00 for a yearly visit and a rabies vaccine. VERY disappointed. We will be changing vets. read more

I have lived in Antelope for many years and when I got my first fur baby I knew I wanted her to get care at Cherry Creek Pet hospital. The staff was extremely nice and informative.

Cherry Creek Veterinary Hospital - Lucy - Veterinarians Near Me - Antelope, California

Love this vet for many reasons: 1. They are organized. If you have an appointment at 11 you are seen at or close to 11. 2. They are honest. We had both our dogs teeth cleaned in 2 months and we were given a quote that ranged from $700-$3000. If the pet needs extractions it gets expensive. I was worried about my 12 year old dog but they got in there and her teeth just needed the deep cleaning no extractions! I don't feel like they would do unnecessary work. 3. The doctors seem like they genuinely care. I've never seen a veterinarian sit on the floor to check out the dog and say hi. It warms my heart. 4. They have been the designated vet for homeward bound golden retriever rescue for many years and continues to support the organization. 5. Cherry creek is a well maintained, clean business. I couldn't recommend cherry creek more! read more

I've been to this veterinary office a few times in the past two decades, and years ago decided to go to a veterinary office very close to my home, due to having cats that hate car rides and get extremely stressed out. I really liked this particular office in the past. Well, with the dreaded "C" word and pandemic, all pet owners who have had to seek vet care for their fur babies have discovered, unfortunately, that it's extremely difficult to get a timely appointment, and if it's something that can't wait for a week or weeks, you are forced to have to go to some pricey and overcrowded emergency pet hospital. I had to unfortunately look for a vet to put my baby to sleep today, and my regular vet couldn't get me in for several weeks, even though I told them what I needed to do. So, I called this wonderful veterinary office, and spoke to the nicest receptionist about my situation and she was able to get me in the next day. Although heartbreaking as it was, everyone in the office and the veterinarian who assisted us were so amazingly sweet and compassionate. The office was super clean, beautiful, and serene. My boy went to Heaven with me by his side, giving him kisses and being in the best, most peaceful office and the best animal loving professionals I could have ever hoped for. Thank you, Cherry Creek veterinary clinic for making this tough and heartbreaking day more compassionate and loving towards my boy and I. Thank you as well for fitting us in your busy schedule so I didn't have to see my boy suffer for two more weeks. This was truly compassionate of you. I think I'm never going back to my regular vet and will be coming here from now on. read more

We came to this vet for years when Dr Coddi was around who we lived. We have had the worst experiences with this vet since the change of ownership. Can't keep records straight and very cold. Glad I found a new vet elsewhere and we will never look back. read more

Not recommended! Must have changed ownership. Been going here for over 12 years but not anymore. Month and a half wait for a sick dog??? WTF? Last 2 trips there were completely unprofessional and a male vet actually went "eww" when he got some poo on his smock. LOL I couldn't believe it! He was disgusted, and he's supposed to be a vet? I guess getting a degree off a computer or cereal box doesn't quite prepare you for the real world. Bottom line... if you really care for your pets, stay clear of this place. I feel bad for the prior owners and staff that built this place, they were amazing! read more

I asked my friend who has dogs and cats, and has worked at several local vet practices over her career, "where do you recommend to bring my cats for a checkup and dental work?" Without delay, "Cherry Creek and Dr. Codde," one of the owners (or the owner). I made an appointment the next day for the following Sunday. My friend let me know Dr. Codde cares about the animals but won't gouge you with anything unnecessary. That's what I want. That's what I got. My cats aren't in need of a dental cleaning. My girl has great, clean teeth (she loves her crunchies). My boy, he has foul breath and some tartar and minor gingivitis. She suggested that I introduce tooth brushing. The risks with anesthesia aren't worth the itty bitty bit of cleanup to do. So that was it. A couple of $49 exams and we were out the door. The staff were great. The facility is clean. I'll return. Even if it's a long drive up Watt Avenue, it's peace of mind when you find a veterinarian that you like. BTW, they treat cats, dogs, rabbits, rats, warm blooded pocket pets. Reptile owners will need to try other clinics. Cherry Creek is open 7 days a week by appointment. That works very well for those who work banker's hours. They don't accept checks, just cash & charge. Check them out! read more

Cherry Creek Veterinary Hospital - Cute wall art in one of the exam rooms. 2019-01-20 - Veterinarians Near Me - Antelope, California

I highly DONOT RECOMMEND this clinic at all. The prices have sky rocketed and since the two original vets retired. The new male vet my Pom felt that this vet didn't even like dogs . His blood pressure was over 200. He immediately put him on high blood pressure medication.Well I took him to a new wonderful vet is blood pressure was 114. So that being said we still need to find what's really wrong with him . If I could give -10 stars I would read more

Some of the kindest people in the world. My daughter had her cat pit down here and they were so gentle with the kitty and my girl :)

My dog got worse with no assistance and died. I wish cherry creek had cared enough to just look at her. It might not have made a difference but at least they could have spared care and concern instead of complete indifference read more

I did love cherry creek vet up until today. I think they have changed dr helpers because I have never seen this guy before. My animals have been going there for about 6 years. He started out nice but then became very rude. I had a video of what my dog was doing with her neck, and he insisted that the video would not help him and asked me what was going on. I said look at the video that's what she is doing he refused and had me show him with my head!!! Am I the dumb one for showing him?? and then of course went into I have to get my dog vaccine. (boosters) she is vaccinated. I said Nope she lives in our house. This neck thing all started when I gave my dog the NexGard chewable flea prevention provided from them. all I wanted to do is just have them look at the video to see if it is common or if there is something going on. I did not stay to see the DR because he made me so mad. he was a very unconnected to my dog and rude to me. I will be finding a new vet. read more

Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Have two Pitbull puppies who currently receive care and services, but also took our past Pitbull there until her passing. read more

I bought their puppy package for my 2 puppies. I now notice that it did not include vaccinations that I need to get my puppies trained. I paid $690 for two dogs. One of my puppies had Giardiasis and needed to be treated. Knowing they shared a crate, no one suggested to get the other puppy treated. When I starting thinking about it I called and asked for the medication for the second puppy. The additional cost for treatment for one dog was $50. While I was waiting for a call back, I searched and was able to find it online for $17! That is some markup. Everybody was very friendly, however when I asked for a copy of vaccination record, instead of a clear concise form, I received the current visit bill that listed the vaccines given that day ie DHPP #3. Also, I'm sure this veterinarian isn't the only one, but please spell out what DHPP means at least once. A vaccine record form isn't too much to ask I don't believe. A list of available vaccines or discussion of what may be needed after the basic ones are given would also be helpful-ie if the pet is to be boarded or trained or travel, etc. I now have to pay additionally and will need to take them for additional vaccines after I paid the $690 for the two puppies (supposedly with vaccines) for training or boarding them. Disappointing. read more

I have been a client here for over 8 years.Thru having to put my long time pets to rest and the normal care and boarding of my dogs. I have always loved the service and small community feel. Knowing all the workers, and loving Dr. Coddee . Unfortunately ownership has changed, with that comes the management changes. Dogs are now only let out twice a day for a potty break if you board here. Which is inhumane. You are. Required to also give your dog the influenza shot before boarding which is two shots at 87 dollars each.. wth? I miss the small town community that once was... read more

Thinking I wouldn't bring my dog into this location following the conversation with the previous visit, I've changed my opinion. I scheduled an appointment with dr. Codde herself and I was amazed with her great service! They got me in and out quick, assessed the problem and solution right away, and also gave me options on medication that were cost effective for me as well as future trial run options with other issues. She was very nice and you can definitely see she loves her job and is phenomenal at it! Office visit price is a little costly but worth it to have someone knowledgeable and pleasant. Glad to be back on good terms, thanks again doctor! read more

My cat wasn't feeling too hot so we brought him in. He had some blood tests done and got the all clear. He unfortunately has some arthritis (we kinda figured this) so now with a clean bill of health and some arthritis meds.

Recently moved to area and needed to find vet for my dog. After reading recommendations on Next Door and reviews on Yelp I chose Cherry Creek. Dr Codde was great! She sat down on floor to examine Butters and was very thorough. I got a good vibe from chatting with her and the staff. They followed recommended practices for COVID-19 keeping clients separated and making sure everyone was properly masked. I got a follow-up thank you card in the mail after the visit. I'm confident that we'll get good care from Cherry Creek. read more

I took my 12 yr old dog here yesterday because he was displaying signs of arthritis. At my previous vet, I was charged $600 for X-rays!!! And they showed "little to no signs" but he is limping so I decided to get a second opinion. After driving 45 min to cherry creek DR. RAUHAUS examined my baby, told me what she thinks the problem was and gave me treatment options. She never once pushed me to do another X-ray but offered it. It was $190!!!! $410 DOLLARS CHEAPER. I agreed. We figured out the problem. I was well informed about his issue and out of there with 2 weeks worth of trial meds. the xrays, medication and appt all cost me $300. THANK YOU FOR BEING HONEST, and not pushy DR. RAUHAUS. We will be returning 100% and taking our business there. read more

Wow! What a positive vet visit experience. Our family's dog is very shy and nervous and is not a fan of the vet. We wanted to switch her to a new clinic in hopes she would have better care. Making an appointment was easy (and they're open weekends-score!), and upon arrival we're greeted and asked to fill out some simple paperwork. We were able to go into the exam room and be present when our dog got her vaccines which I think helped relax her. Dr. Codd told us our pup could stand to use some weight and was very helpful in answering our questions in how to go about it. Our girl was very tired for 2 days after her vaccines but she is all better now. Thank you for the very friendly and warm visit! read more

Great experience and staff is friendly. They were very knowledgeable and helpful with my dog

Dr. Codde exhibits low empathy, is inappropriate, & does not listen well. I apologized to my dog for taking him to her for care.

I really had a great experience with the Vet after I went in to make a complaint. Sometimes that's when you learn the most about a person or a business. They listened to my concern and went above and beyond to address concerns. I would definitely recommend this business. read more

My little chihuahua was put down by Dr Paul. He and the entire staff were extremely compassionate and did everything my way. Little Gabby will always be loved and someday will have a sister.
