Was looking to switch to a new vet closer to home and saw that Bear Valley Veterinary Care Center had good reviews. They were able to schedule an appointment to get my pup in right away. Took my pup in for some irritation he was having around his eye wrinkles. His eye wrinkles are sensitive to changes in weather and moisture. Dr. Thomas recommended a foam made for yeast and skin infections. I noticed the irritation in his wrinkles improved after the first two applications. The solution she recommended can be purchased directly from the vet, in-store or online and the bottle will last for several months. This is a great solution for my pet and his sensitive skin. The facility is clean and comfortable, and the staff were helpful and friendly. read more

We found Bear Valley Vet through the Connect 4 Care program when we were looking for a place to bring our newly adopted shelter cat, and we were really happy with our experience! All the techs were so friendly and good with him and the vet we saw was extremely knowledgeable and kind. They had answers for all of our questions and plenty of good recommendations! We will definitely be bringing Skipper back here for all of his veterinary needs. read more

Our dog had a check up with the vet. All she did was squeeze his stomach, say he's overweight (1lb) and charge us $276!! 2nd opinion revealed a double ear infection! When we voiced our dissatisfaction, they ignored our message! I guess when you are too busy ripping people off you don't have time to try and keep the clients you have. You've been warned. read more

First time client/patient @ BVCC- they were AWESOME. From the front desk staff (Ange, Dee) to the tech (Kacey) to the Dr. (Morgan) they were ALL top notch, THE BEST. Professional, kind, caring, courteous, patient, flexible. Dr. Morgan was a vaca fill in, and she was INCREDIBLE- Called me 3x to check up and update treatment instructions. I have found my new vet with a GREAT team! read more

Shout out to Bear Valley veterinary center. The vet tech Sarah made sure I had a wonderful experience. I ended up running into some financial troubles and she was able to work with me to make sure that I could get my dog medication on time before a trip. She was a life saver and I plan on continuing my service here!! read more

This is the best vet we have ever been to. Dr. Stevenson and Dr. Brown are wonderful veterinarians, and the rest of the vet staff are extremely kind and caring. I've appreciated all of the help from Allie, Yesenia, Kacey, Jo, and Dee - they have taken great care of my fur baby Theo! Highly recommend to anyone in the Denver area. read more

ANYTHING FOR A BUCK! I've been using Bear Valley Veterinary Care Center for several years now, but after today, I am done! Every year my dog has allergy issues, and there is an antibiotic that works. In April, I had to make an appointment, pay for a full office visit and check-up to get this prescription, even though he gets the same prescription every year. Maybe because it's so dry out, or maybe because this time I only received 5 days of meds, the allergy came back. I called today, to get the antibiotic refilled, and guess what? I have to make another appointment, take off hours of work, pay for a full office visit and check-up before they will re-fill the meds. Ridiculous!!!! I would also like to mention that I have NEVER seen the same vet twice, always someone new. There is no way they would ever "know" your pet. I won't be going back. read more

In the past I have not been able to board my highly reactive dog, but based on a recommendation, I contacted Bear Valley. After an initial phone conversation, I brought Gracie to meet Matt, and he assured me that they would be able to take care of her. Matt and his team took great care of Gracie while I was traveling on business. I won't hesitate to bring her back in the future. read more

Very helpful to get us in on a weekend. Very thorough, competent and excellent follow up!

Dr. Erin and Dr. Stevenson are each so wonderful, as is everyone we've interacted with on staff. Our cat has been a patient for a few years now. We were delighted to find a vet clinic that was so cat-centric. Our friends with dogs are super happy here, but I have never been to a place with any of my cats in the past that had such a deep understanding of cats. Our kitty had surgery here recently and the entire process was smooth, the people involved professional and compassionate, and every aspect of the care emboldened us with security that our cat was very well tended to. read more

I have been bringing my 15 y.o. kitty here for two years now and have nothing but praise for the DVMs and staff.

Long story short - Bear Valley charged me for lab work that I did not get and won't refund the portion of the lab work that was not performed. I went in for a routine check up on my cats and urinalysis was part of the checkup. They were unable to get urine from my cat during the visit so they told me at my appointment to either try to get urine myself at home or to bring her back in for a free nurse visit to get urine. They did not tell me at my appointment was that I needed to get her the rabies vaccine in order for me to bring her back for the urinalysis. I declined the vaccine as she is an indoor cat and there would be and will not be any exposure to rabies. I found this out when I tried to call and get the nurse appointment for the urinalysis. Ok, so I can't bring her in that is fine, but I asked for a refund for the urinalysis, but they will not provide me with a refund because it's a package for the labs however they can easily find out how much just urinalysis costs and just give me that portion refunded. They have also canceled my cats as patients even though I never asked them to do that nor was I informed about this until I called them about the refund. Other things of note is that they aren't that organized nor did I feel like they were that great of a clinic to begin with. I thought I would give them another shot, so that is why I went a second time. The actual vet's bedside manner was very cold and with a sense of not caring about my cats' wellbeing. On my first visit I provided pictures of my cats yet they still mixed up their medical records which took me calling a couple times to have them fix it. How do you do that when you have the pictures of the cats? Lastly they seem very overpriced and I am coming from San Francisco and Bear Valley's prices for things were even more than sf. read more

Absolutely love this Vet! A new fur baby brings tons of anxiety for some. The staff made sure all my questions were answered and we were treated so well. Highly recommend this vet. read more

I really want to thank the doctors and staff. My dog was not doing well and they really tried to help. She passed away and the staff sent me a card. It really brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for showing me that you really cared. read more

They let me be in the exam room with my pet, and are available to answer all of my questions. Thank you.

Absolutely awful money gouging no care for your pet only for cash never have I had a good experience never have I had the same vet or practitioner in this place. Do not go if you care about your pet find a better place read more

Held my dog hostage over her heart medication medication claiming that she was due for blood work in a couple weeks, wouldn't even fill a prescription until the date I could schedule an exam, as I was not informed of this prior to requesting a refill. My dog may have a bad heart, but all the employees here have NO heart! read more

Staff is friendly, but every time I take my dog in we have to wait 35-45 min to be seen. Even for just a booster shot. It's a little frustrating, also it seems very expensive for services here. read more

I received excellent care for my dog who had gastrointestinal issues. They work as a team and gave us awesome service. I especially like the drive thru med pickup. read more

Since moving to Lakewood I have been to several vets until I found this amazing place. Staff is amazing, prices very reasonable. They took great care of my 14 year old Cat. I loved the communication and follow up. Glad we're home! read more

Our pup goes here when travel and wow...they are the BEST care. They treat Porter like he's one of theirs..walks, treats, play time, and baths..he is always having the time of his life. He comes back happy and tired, which is exactly what we want. Matt is so good to him, as is all the staff we've encountered. Their location is clean and well set up. They started sharing report cards and photos with us, it really makes us feel good to share how he's doing. Thank you for such great care! read more

The clinic has experienced significant staff turnover and frequent misinformation. I ceased using their services after they overcharged me for two shots, mistakenly administering one meant for a 20-pound puppy and trying to make me pay for their error. Although they eventually corrected the mistake, it was a frustrating process as the staff initially tried to convince me the cost was the same until I showed them my previous invoice, exposing their error. A few months ago, I was contacted regarding my dog being due for vaccines. When I called back to schedule an appointment, I was informed that an exam was also required in order to get shots and that I couldn't just get shots with a tech, despite having paid for the lifetime shots fee. I then canceled the request to make an appointment and it was later admitted that I had been misinformed by a gentleman that used to work there and so I told him I would call back when I the rabies vaccine was due to get everything done at once. Fast forward to today, they are now claiming that I need to pay for an exam plus the vaccines because I had missed the last annual exam, stating that the lifetime shots are only valid if you attend all exams and that it would be reinstated if I pay the exam and all vaccines again. I requested to see the contract outlining this policy but was told it couldn't be found immediately. When I asked to speak to the practice manager, she called me back just before leaving for the day, avoiding a conversation. I again asked for the contract from the front desk and she said their system takes a while to send things. I just wanted a confirmation that they will be able to send it today and then the person chuckled when I inquired about receiving the contract today, and responded with "or we will get it to you tomorrow." Seems like they likely never had the information communicated to me and are now scrambling to try and put something together. read more

Very, very happy with Bear Valley Veterinary Care Center. The vet I have had for almost 2 years would not respond to messages or emails requesting an appointment. Bear Valley was able to get us in, my puppy had that nasty virus going around. The tech's were friendly and caring, the vet was as well. The offices are professional and the follow up was awesome. I am sending my mom there with her cat for a check up. Highly recommend. read more

Anyone still remember the Savings and Loan building on Sheridan just south of Jewell? It was empty for years but is now a top notch veterinary practice. Dr. Stevenson and her superb staff provide excellent veterinary care AND offer worry free boarding. Her staff always present a welcoming arrival and are kind, responsive, empathetic and clearly love animals. If you are a pet parent who lives in the neighborhood ( and even if you don't ), I don't believe you will find a finer vet practice. read more

We recently left our longtime vet after an issue with our 12 & 1/2 year old baby that we lost due to diabetic ketoacidosis. After looking at reviews on Yelp I decided this was the best place to bring our new puppy and our other 7 year old rescue. The facility is very nice, very clean, and the staff are all wonderful and truly care about your dogs! We first had Dr. Chawla and then Dr. Stevenson, both were great! They took the time to explain things, answer my questions and were great with the puppy. Overall I'm super happy so far and I highly recommend them! I don't just trust anyone with my furbabies. So happy I found them and it's a plus that they are right down the street from us. read more

I would urge great caution in bringing your pets, especially your cats, to this vet. In the examination room that they have designated for cats, the entire ceiling is open and numerous cats have crawled up into the attic. for whatever reason they have decided not to fix the ceiling to simply allow this to be a secure room. Our cat was stuck in the attic for over 24 hours. The front desk person told me that this has happened on numerous occasions. after we did finally come and retrieve our cat there really didn't seem to be much care or concerned that this it happened. Additionally, we brought our cat there for vaccinations in preparation for spaying. we thought that there was a good chance that she might be pregnant based on numerous physical changes to her. The person examining her did a very quick check and said we can't tell anything. six days later our cat had five kittens. Doesn't seem like it was all that thorough of an exam if a "professional" can't identify that a cat was very pregnant. Alll of this speaks to a general lack of care and focus on profit versus customer and patient care. read more

Service: 10/10 quick and friendly staff Atmosphere: 10/10 cat friendly for sure and a good warm feeling when you walk in. Parking: 10/10 it wasn't too busy when we arrived. Private parking lot included. Our first visit here was absolutely a breath of fresh air! We had rescued our kitty from the Denver Animal Shelter and they gave us a helpful sheet of local veterinarians and we just went with the closest one to our home. Immediately when we walked in we were greeted with warm smiles and they went ahead and put us into a room very quickly. Ponyo did so good with the technician as well as the doctor whom helped us. They were also so kind to give us goodies to take home for Ponyo! She got a new food/water bowl a bag of treats, a bag of dry cat food, pens, and other informational cards. All in all, we had an amazing experience here and we can't wait to return in the future. read more

Great clinic, the doctors are very caring and they've helped us through so many issues with our young dog. Anything and everything from treating a UTI to allergies. They did a great job with Ellie's spay surgery too :) It's a little more expensive than some places, but the care is top notch and they can almost always get you in last minute for an emergency visit. read more

Great, friendly staff. The owner is a pet owner and had some excellent advice for training and feeding. They treated my Sammie, a 9 month old Shepherd- Husky mix, very well and knew exactly how to react to her nervousness. I'm a very satisfied client. This is my place for anything Sammie related. read more

This is the finest veterinary facility we have used. We just had to board, then ultimately put down our 16-year-old chihuahua. From the front desk to the kennel manager (sweet Matt) to the fine medical staff, they treated Bruiser like the child he is to us. While I hope to see them only at well checkups, I know they are there when things get "hairy." read more

I've been taking my 14yr old lab here and she's treated really well. The staff has gone out of their way to make sure she's comfortable; extra pats to blankets on the ground for her to lay on. Dr. Stevenson has been wonderful and so detailed in my dogs care. She is very prompt to follow up with test results and answer any questions (sometimes before I can even ask). She doesn't try to guilt you into spending a ton of unnecessary money. She always provides options for treatment plans and helps me understand everything. The staff is very kind as well, they do a great job taking notes on my dog and following through with what they promise to do. read more

We loved our experience at Bear Valley! Anastasia, Alison, and Dr Stevenson were all super helpful and kind with our sweet kitties! Thank you for caring for our babies so well. The space was also very clean which I appreciated! read more

Amazing!! I've taken both of my cats here. The techs and the vets are so accommodating and nice! Very modern service and explanation of services. They have a cat only room. My one cat who normally gets stressed at the vet was the most chill I've ever seen him. Highly recommend! read more

Dr. Newett saved my cat, Artemis's life. She has had stomach problems since she came to live with me.

We first learned about Bear Valley when we adopted our first rescue pup from Life Line Puppies. They have always gone above and beyond with taking care of our furbaby during the visit and they always call a day or two after to check up. Whenever we are unsure about something we always give them a call and they are quick to respond and extremely helpful. We were so happy with the support they have given us with our first rescue pup so we have also decided to take our newest rescue pup there as well. Highly recommend! read more

We took two of our dogs here more than once and it was great until the vet tech told me that things would be covered without even checking my plan or help me find out what might be covered. She told me nationwide covered DNA testing and they 100% DO NOT and they were just rambling off things that our dogs needed with no explanation. Then they took more than a week to call us back and when I called she said she had a "note to call us". And yes I have called nationwide but when a PROFESSIONAL is telling me it will be covered, then that's not cool. So we have a 1300$ vet bill so thanks bear valley for that. They do treat your animals well but I 100% got up sold so that being said we won't be back read more

This clinic is the best in 8 years of visiting a couple Vets here and there. After paying for a entire consultation, blood work, teeth cleaning and a small cist removed at the previous vet, I found out that the vaccine that was expired for my pet and was supposed to be given on that procedure was not. I had a emergency travel and no one would accept him for boarding without it, I call them, explained the situation on a Saturday when everyone was booked around, the made the effort in accommodating 'us'. They even stayed after business hours waiting since was a emergency. The entire staff was amazed, I even got a estimate for nodder him, I need to do it and found super over priced around. They have a fair price and amazing care with the puppy. Extremely recommended! read more

I have been a client here for over ten years. Expect high level pet and customer care. The staff is truly passionate for what they do and they provide outstanding service as well as amazing veterinary care. I drive out of the way to bring my pet here to BVVCC and trust them to the fullest! read more
