    If you have a large breed dog, I strongly recommend going elsewhere…read more I had been a client at this clinic for nearly a year, tolerating repeated rudeness from the front desk staff primarily because their prices were more affordable. However, my most recent experience made it clear that I could no longer justify staying. Whenever I brought in my German Shepherd, the front desk staff treated us with clear discomfort--making rude comments and acting as though they didn't want him there. In contrast, when I brought in my smaller dog (a Border Collie puppy), they were friendly, warm, and welcoming. The difference in treatment was stark and concerning. The final straw came when my German Shepherd became seriously ill late at night--he was weak, had pale gums, and was bleeding from his bottom. I contacted the on-call emergency vet, who advised me to monitor him overnight and bring him in first thing in the morning. When I called the clinic the next morning and relayed this to the front office, they dismissed my concerns and told me he was "fine." I stressed that he was not fine and requested that he be seen. The receptionist responded coldly, saying they would just put him in a kennel and that there was nothing more they could do. Despite explaining multiple times that I was following the on-call vet's instructions, I was ignored. Thankfully, I was able to get him into another clinic that welcomed large breeds and immediately recognized the urgency of his condition. They ended up saving his life. I was later told that had I waited any longer, he may have required emergency surgery--or worse. To be fair, the veterinarians themselves have always been professional and helpful during my visits. Unfortunately, the front desk staff consistently undermine that care with poor communication and, in my experience, biased and unprofessional behavior. I can no longer recommend this clinic, especially to owners of large breed dogs. The photo attached shows just a small glimpse of the blood trail from that night--what you're seeing is mild compared to the rest. The entire house looked like a crime scene and the situation was far more severe than this image captures.

    Gem city cared for my dogs for the 8 years I lived in Laramie. I had to put them both down for…read morehealth reasons. One dog had syncope he would pass out almost like a seizure and we tried working through it for several months but it just was not improving and max was really miserable his big brother moo is a miracle dog he was purchased from a back yard breeder in Utah and trained as a PTSD service dog professionally in Denver he had many issue over the years at one time in our travels he was almost bald from allergies or something I can't remember he was a high anxiety dog when he was working hated service work. When I moved to Wyoming I let him be a silly lab no more service work. He developed a lipoma that grew rapidly in a few months it was the size of a big grapefruit he started getting growths all over his body and he found it hard to get comfortable most of the time. He was a loyal friend who helped me get out and do things that without him paralyzing anxiety would keep me from doing. We decided to let him go with his brother Max the vet god bless her was so kind and let me just hold him until I was ready to let go. He got the first shot to sedate him and he was still standing on all 4 ten min later comforting me as I was falling apart. When the vet gave him the final dose he laid down beside me wagging his tail all I could say is I love you and never forget it moo. He passed away peacefully in my arms I got a plaster mold of his and max paw. A few days later I moved my family out of Wyoming to Flordia and I got a phone call from a florist saying they had a delivery for us from Gem City I was not able to receive the flowers because I had moved but the though warmed my heart and I am thankful for that moment of kindness. I'd recommend Gem City to anyone. They are good people.

    Another horrible experience with this 3 star vet. Called over 3 weeks ago to get my pet in for…read moresurgery (was intrigued by their laser, ONLY reason). Told the person who answered the phone that my dog was not a regular patient at their vet and was told that as long as he was up to date with shots, they would happily do the surgery. Scheduled for December 16th. Fast forward to last night 12/11 at 5:15 Brittany Robinson calls me telling me they cannot do the surgery in 5 days as my dog has not had a wellness check and they don't do surgery before performing those. When asked why it was not explained when I scheduled the appointment, technician Brittany Robinson told me pretty much tough luck and that they could reschedule me into January. I asked why a paying customer is having to pay for their incompetence. Some of us take our animals health very seriously and have taken time off of work, saved up money for said procedure, so having this canceled at 5 at night on the Wednesday before, just seemed absolutely unprofessional and I wanted a manager to call me. Called back this afternoon and Sara Boryla told me they could send me my records (which they don't have since my dog isn't a regular?) and that I could go elsewhere for the surgery. That after my phone call with Brittany Robinson the managers decided they didn't need to talk to me, and to send me elsewhere. So never was someone apologetic for making a mistake and inconveniencing me because their staff is incompetent. They have bad reviews for a reason. Spend your money at a vet who respects and understands the things we animal lovers do for our pets. Unprofessional, rude, unreliable.

    Sought emergency care with this vet after our dog was bitten camping at Curt Gowdy. Small dog that…read morehad multiple puncture wounds and vet misdiagnosed amount of blood our dog had/could lose, ran diagnostic tests, did not recommend and was unable to provide blood transfusion, did not offer any palliative care for our dog and kept us at the office for over two hours before suggesting we go elsewhere. Our dog died an hour later on the way to CSU. We paid $500 for this care which did absolutely nothing to give our dog a chance to survive and wasted precious time. If only we headed to Cheyenne or Ft Collins. 1 star is 1 star too many.

    Outstanding care and attention to detail! I am so grateful to the wonderful vet tech who helped us…read moretoday. My senior dog has severe food allergies, and when I mentioned his sensitivity to corn, she didn't just nod and move on--she actually took the time to go into the back and double-check the ingredients of the prescribed antibiotic pills. Because she caught a corn binder in the tablets, she was able to pivot his treatment to a safe injection instead. Her willingness to truly listen and double-check saved my dog from a massive allergic flare-up. Thank you for your incredible compassion and thoroughness!

    The folks here saved my cat's life!…read more My mom recommended Cheyenne Pet Clicic after taking her cats for shots, teeth removals, etc. Even though I live in Fort Collins, where I'm sure there are a lot of great clinics too, I come here because I have been very impressed with how the clinic runs like a well oiled machine. They see a lot of clients, yet you don't usually have to wait very long to make an appointment or to be seen. All the receptionists, vet techs, and vets I've dealt with here have been super. I took my cat, Tar, for routine shots, then later teeth removal and cleaning. Everyone was very nice and Dr. Calhoon and Ashley took the time to answer any questions I had about the procedures. They even gave me before and after photos of his rotten teeth, X-rays, and let me have the tiny teeth they removed. Recently I noticed Tar was hiding, extremely lethargic, eating less, etc. He was in good spirits but I was concerned because he is FIV (Feline Immune deficiency Virus) positive, which means he can get really sick fast. When I called to make an appointment, the receptionist asked very specific questions to assess how sick he was, the nature of his illness, and she made the soonest available appointment. Within 5 minutes she called me back to let me know there was just a cancellation the day before and they could get him in sooner. I wish I could remember this receptionist's name so I could tell her that she saved his life. When I brought Tar in, Dr. Calhoon didn't immediately run a bunch of random tests, he again asked me very specific questions about his behavior, appetite, bowel movements, etc. He quickly ruled out unnecessary stuff like X-rays and did a saline test and blood smear. Within 10 minutes into the appointment and with a relatively benign, inexpensive test he had figured out he had immune mediated thrombocytopenia and anemia (his immune system was attacking his platelets and red blood cells), probably idiopathic but perhaps from FIV. Because the receptionist had thought to call me back immediately and fit me in for this appointment, and Dr. Calhoon was able to figure out what was going on with a simple saline blood solution, we we able to start treatment immediately with immune suppressants. I brought him back a few times after that to get blood tests and I cannot stress enough how close he was to going over the rainbow bridge. Every day mattered. I had to have some hard conversations about when would be the time to consider either blood transfusion or euthanasia. Dr. Calhoon and all the folks here were incredibly kind and patient in answering everything. It was touch and go for a minute there but Tar seems to be improving and living his best, most spoiled life. Tar goes with me everywhere. I moved across country and started my life over with this critter. He sleeps in my lap for car rides, sits in a chair at the dinner table to watch us eat, curls up next to me wherever I am, and won't even so much as let me go the bathroom without him. Even if the folks at Cheyenne Pet Clinic have only bought me a few more high quality of life months, I am immensely grateful I don't have to say goodbye to my little shadow yet and get to spoil him rotten.
