    According to Northside this wasn't necessarily an emergency! DISGUSTING and I want to literally sue them.
    Jennifer C.

    Absolutely PATHETIC! This place that cares nothing about actual animals, but only about their profits. A dog was hit on the side of the road and several of us got out to help the dog. We eventually found the owner. It was bleeding profusely and nearly unconscious, and I called northside to make sure I could bring the dog in for AN EMERGENCY and the lady was rude and told me that I should call the cops because I would be financially responsible for the dog and said they would determine IF it needed any medical care. I yelled at her and told her like I had said in the beginning of the call that the dog got hit by a car and was bleeding out. This place is absolutely DISGUSTING and pathetic and I would never take my animals here what careless, heartless individuals.

    His IV I removed at home
    Kylee S.

    I'm really disappointed and frustrated with the care my dog received at this facility. We brought him in around 6pm on Monday January 8th due to him somehow ripping his lower lip off his jaw bone. We were told he would need to have surgery to repair and reattach his lip. We were quoted $1343.12 and told that it could go up from there once the surgery was complete, depending on everything they had to do. I asked for high end of what we could be looking at price wise, and they said to expect it to go up about $300-$400. I said ok that's fine, do the surgery. A couple hours later we were called back to come pick him up to which the doctor (Dr. Feinzig) told me "I did my best to be an oral surgeon." Um what? That comment alone made me feel very uneasy about the outcome of this surgery. Upon arrival, they went over all his discharge papers, and brought him out to me. Immediately I noticed the left side of my pups lip didn't look sutured properly, but I'm also not a doctor myself, so I didn't say anything. My mistake. When it was time to check out at the front desk, I was told there was a balance due, which I expected, but then I was told the balance was another $650. Not the $300-$400 they told me to expect. Frustrated, I paid my balance and left. Got pup home and had him set up and secluded in a room by himself. I followed all of their care instructions, fed him wet food, kept his cone on, did leashed potty breaks etc. I went to remove his bandage as instructed, and noticed he had another on his back leg I needed to remove. Upon pulling up the first piece of tape, I then realized it was actually his IV. Still in him. I had to remove his IV myself. Then, not even 48hrs later, I noticed the left side of his lip looking funny and like it had pulled away from the bone again. Upon further inspection I discovered that some of his stitches did in fact come out. Then not even an hour later, they all failed, and his lip was hanging off him yet again. I called the hospital back and told them what had happened, and they said I would need to bring him back in for an exam and he would most likely have to go into surgery again. I asked if I was going to be charged for this surgery and visit, since I was just charged $2000 for it initially, and it clearly wasn't done properly. They said unfortunately yes I would have to be charged. I hung up and decided to take him to another clinic in arvada (Urgent Animal Care). Upon arrival I immediately felt better about the place I was bringing him to. They were able do the surgery, and reattach his lip for $500 less than Northside. The doctor there told me that the stitches didn't work because there weren't enough, AND the tissue was infected and should have been cleaned up before stitches even happened. The doctor told me she stitched the heck out of him, and threw in extra stitches where she could. I would also like to add that my pup is an anxious pup, and he was showing obvious signs of this at both clinics. Northside mentioned his anxiety, but did nothing about it. At Urgent Animal Care, they noticed right away and said they would get him something for the anxiety ASAP before he even sees the doctor. And they also sent me home with sedatives to help keep him calm. Northside did none of this. I wholeheartedly feel that if I had initially taken my pup to Urgent Animal Care in Arvada, he wouldn't have had to undergo a second surgery, and I wouldn't be out $3500. I cannot, in good faith, recommend Northside Emergency Pet Clinic to anyone for the proper care of their pet.

    I cannot recommend Northside Emergency Pet Clinic enough! After a sudden and dramatic decline in our dogs health, we were recommended to Northside by our vet. The entire staff from reception to techs and doctors so kindly held us together and helped us navigate a scary and difficult diagnosis and consistently went above and beyond to not only give our dog George the best care, but care for us as well. We were given the opportunity to visit the hospital every day, with updated calls/texts/photos to help us feel connected from afar. This team does a great job at working together, doing everything they can to send pets home healthy and happy again. We'll forever be grateful to this incredible group of people!

    Chunks I pulled out of my pups mouth while in the room waiting for vet techs and docs

    Brought my pup in with a strong idea of the issue, vet techs were rude and had cold "bed side manners" well the man I met initially wasn't very warm rather. While in my 3 hour visit, 2 x rays were taken... while "waiting" for the synopses my pup decided to throw up a good amount of the "foreign body" substance which was carpet tile, which was known to me. As he was throwing it up, I had to pull it completely out because no one was present. I cleaned the room up using items from the front desk receptionist... they gave him fluids and a nausea injection, for 595... 320 of that coming from "2-3 views" that I was told by the doctor would be a rough estimate of 200 or so.. I was overcharged in my opinion, to pull out the substance from my animals mouth, to then have them x ray and give me common sense suggestions. Should have took my chances not going at all.

    My dog

    The staff here was so helpful and kind! Despite being busy they took the time to make my dog and I feel very important. Dr. Taylor was very thorough and explained everything in a way I could understand. Would absolutely recommend! Very professional and compassionate! My dog Liberty received the best care! Thank you!

    The staff here was amazing they took you us in right away, super caring and friendly. My cat London was acting strange and had a fever and was really irritated, the staff here made sure my little one was taken care of well. it was clear that the health of London was first priority.

    Here is one of the notes I started taking on the phone so I can give enough info to my attorney as possible.

I set a time, but when it got close, I panicked, called and rescheduled.... they were kind and understanding about it.... well I calmed down a couple of hours later, so called again and rescheduled. And you know what, they said "that is fine, we understand". We got there, with my girl dog, Frankie Lynn, they took us to a room they had set up, just for us, with the plaque in the photo. There was calming music playing, soft lights and just a very calming atmosphere. They gave us plenty of time to say our goodbyes (and a new box of tissues) then they came in sedated her and it was over. I felt such a feeling of peace and calmness. Far cry from the wreck I was earlier. We chose to take her remains with us so they provided a nice carrier and let us out a back door. AMAZING! I would HIGHLY recommend Community Pet Hospital for your veterinary needs, in fact, I am going to change my vet to them!

    I brought my nine-year-old Pomeranian to Animal Urgent Care after a seizure because his regular…read moreveterinarian had not yet opened. I approved bloodwork to look for metabolic causes of the seizure. The bloodwork was useful and ultimately showed no obvious peripheral cause. What I found frustrating was discovering that an IV catheter had also been placed at a charge of $120. I do not recall consenting to catheter placement; I recall specifically consenting to the bloodwork. No fluids or medications were administered through the catheter during his visit. The medical record states that catheter placement was approved, which does not match my recollection of the conversation. After several hours, the treatment provided consisted of examination/observation, bloodwork and placement of the unused catheter. Hospitalization for continued neurologic observation was recommended, which I declined in favor of taking him home and following up with his regular veterinarian, who knows his neurologic history and current medications. I understand why an emergency clinic might want IV access available in case another seizure occurs. My concern is not that the clinicians considered it medically reasonable; my concern is that a $120 procedure was performed that I do not believe I authorized, and I did not understand until later that the catheter had not been used to administer any treatment. In an emergency, owners are frightened and making decisions quickly. Clear communication about what is being proposed, what it costs, whether it is diagnostic, therapeutic or precautionary, and obtaining explicit consent before proceeding are extremely important. My primary concern is the IV catheter and the lack of consent. The catheter had already been placed before the veterinarian came to speak with me. I was never asked whether I authorized placement of an IV catheter, and I was never told that it would cost $120. What I was specifically asked to authorize was the emergency/triage evaluation and the bloodwork, which I approved. The medical record subsequently states "IVC placement approved." That is not an accurate account of what occurred. I did not approve catheter placement. By the time the veterinarian discussed the diagnostic plan with me, the catheter was already in my dog. It was never used to administer medication or IV fluids. When I decided to take him home, I also had to specifically request that it be removed. Ultimately, I paid $610 and left without any treatment having been administered to my Pomeranian for the seizure--no seizure medication, no fluids, and no other therapeutic intervention. I understand that examination, bloodwork and observation have value, but for our particular situation this emergency visit was not worth the cost or the additional stress to my dog and me. In the future, I will make a seizure-management plan with his regular veterinarian so I know exactly when emergency care is warranted. His regular veterinary clinic opened approximately 40 minutes after I arrived here; in retrospect, I wish I had kept him safely confined and comfortable and waited for his own veterinarian. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this clinic.

We left. I told them we were going elsewhere because we didn't feel welcome, and the response was a flat "Have a nice night." On paper, nobody did anything wrong -- and I want to be fair about that. But if you love animals, you can tell very quickly when you're standing in front of someone who doesn't. We went to VEG in Boulder instead, where they greeted us with warmth, and more importantly greeted our puppy and showed him affection while they got to work. I don't fault the woman at the front desk. This reads as a hiring and training problem, which falls to ownership and management.
