Ronin had been attacked and hit by a car( we still don't know what happened). The people at Royal Vista were amazing in caring for this sweet little boy. They were so good at getting Ronin better, his bonded sister Poppy decided she needed to stay with him there also! They were released by the owners and one of the techs actually took them both home with her every evening, giving them love and care for probably the very first time until they could be placed in a home. They not only saved Ronins life, but also taught them to trust. I, of course, failed fostering and had to adopt this seriously bonded pair! Thanks to the Royal Vista, both Ronin and Poppy are two very happy Scotties. I cannot thank them enough.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the care my sweet girl Moo and I received from Dr…read more Christopher Orton, Dr. Lalida Tantisuwat, Jenn Thomsen, and the entire CSU Cardiology team. I flew with Moo from Tennessee to California and then to Colorado specifically to have her evaluated at CSU because we were desperately hoping she might be a candidate for TEER heart surgery. Unfortunately, because of her tiny size and the anatomy of her mitral valve, the procedure ultimately wasn't safe for her. As heartbreaking as that was, what I will never forget is how incredibly thorough, compassionate, and determined this team was to help her. We returned for evaluations over four consecutive days because they genuinely wanted to understand what was happening with Moo--not simply assume that every breathing problem she was having was caused by her heart disease. They performed extensive cardiac testing, imaging, bloodwork, and additional diagnostics and recognized that some of her symptoms appeared to be coming from respiratory disease rather than congestive heart failure alone. They adjusted her medications accordingly, reduced a diuretic that appeared to be contributing to dehydration and electrolyte abnormalities, prescribed albuterol for her breathing episodes, and gave me a much clearer understanding of what we were dealing with and what Moo needed going forward. I truly believe the care and insight we received at CSU helped give Moo approximately six more months of life with me, and there are no words for what those six months meant. But what made this team extraordinary went far beyond their medical expertise. They treated Moo like she mattered. They listened to me. They took my concerns seriously. They were kind, patient, thoughtful, and incredibly careful with my tiny girl. I never felt like we were being rushed out the door or that anyone was giving up on figuring out how to help her. When Moo eventually passed away, Dr. Tan sent me the sweetest book along with a hand-drawn picture of Moo. I will never forget that kindness. Having encountered very different veterinary experiences both before and since, I think often about how extraordinarily lucky Moo and I were to have this team caring for her. When your animal is your family, you never forget the people who treated them with that level of compassion, diligence, and respect. Dr. Orton, Dr. Tan, Jenn Thomsen, and everyone who cared for Moo at CSU: thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you did for my sweet, sweet girl. I will always remember the way you cared for her and for me during one of the most frightening times of our lives. God bless all of you.

I cannot express how deeply disappointed and heartbroken I am over my experience at CSU Veterinary…read moreTeaching Hospital. I brought my dog, Lupo, there during a medical emergency while we were traveling from North Carolina, and what followed was one of the most traumatic experiences of my life. We were already in a state of panic, far from home, trying to make the best decisions we could. Despite that, there was a profound lack of communication, compassion, and transparency throughout his care. We were never offered the option to stay in any rooms, just to rest for a little. Being 45 minutes away while our dog was critically ill created unnecessary distance during the most important moments of his life. The most devastating part is that we were only contacted when things had already taken a severe turn, and that call was not a supportive update, but a frantic, high-pressure conversation where I felt like I was being almost yelled at that he needed to be euthanized immediately. There was no sense of guidance, no compassion just urgency without support. We were not called earlier as he declined, and we were not given a real opportunity to come and be with him in time. Because of this, I lost the chance to have any meaningful final moments with my dog. By the time we were involved, he had been intubated. That was not what I wanted unless it was absolutely necessary as a life-saving measure, and it ultimately robbed me of being able to hold him, comfort him, or say goodbye in a way that had any meaning. That is something I will carry with me forever. When we last saw him, he was placed all the way at the bottom of a cage. It felt impersonal and distressing given how critical his condition was. There was no sense that comfort or dignity in his final moments was being prioritized. To make matters worse, a necropsy (autopsy) was performed without our explicit consent. This was incredibly upsetting and felt like a violation during an already devastating time. The lack of clear communication and consent around something so significant is completely unacceptable. After his passing, the handling of his remains and the lack of communication continued to cause harm. Because of delays and inability to reach anyone, his body was not released to the memorial service we had chosen in time for us to receive his ashes before our flight home. We were forced to extend our stay, rebook flights, and incur additional expenses... all while grieving the loss of our baby. I understand this is a teaching hospital and that not every case has a positive outcome. But communication, compassion, and respect for both the patient and their family should never be optional. At no point did I feel supported, informed, or prioritized as his owner. Lupo was my world. He deserved better. And no family should have to go through what we experienced here. There was no compassion in here. There was only a severe urgency to give us a large bill.

When we arrived at the scrupulously clean facility, we were greeted by the office staff who had already begun paperwork based on our phone conversation. The vet saw Chloe immediately and came out to give us preliminary report on vitals along with recommendation for next steps. The vet tech followed with cost estimates. After conclusion of those tests, the vet came out again to tell us results of blood work and's xrays and to let us know fecal labs vwouldn't be back till Tuesday. She gave us diagnosis of colitis, and recommended meds and post visit instructions. Check out was seamless, and final visit was about 10% less than the low estimate. Three days later our dog is recovered. A very pleasant experience for an emergency vet office. High marks to all!

Because the last pet I euthanized was nicknamed "Chas," so I know the universe was telling me it was the right time and that my other pets were with me to greet her. Thank you thank you thank you, Dr. Chas and support staff! You made my pet's passing very comfortable and special. Dr. Chas is very wonderful.

Julie is so great with our little dogs, who have been treated roughly by other vets. We had an emergency visit yesterday after one of our dogs had a severe reaction to a vaccine, went into anaphylactic shock, and almost died (I won't go into details). When we rushed her to the vet (luckily was very close) they scooped her right up and brought her back to the vet. They took immediate action to get her set up on an IV and probably saved her life. A most traumatic day for us, but it was so great to know that we are in good hands with Platte Valley Vet. Our experiences here have been so good, although they have fairly few. The doctor listens to us when we have concerns about our dogs and she is kind with us and our dogs. It is obvious that they care about their patients here. The prices have always been reasonable and it doesn't seem they are interested in gouging animal owners on what can be very expensive costs, especially in crisis situations. Thank you Platte Valley Vet! We hope to keep coming here for many years!!

It's only a YEAR later that I'm getting around to writing this review, and the experience with this company still makes me tear up, with gratitude! As a first-time client, I had some special requests, like keeping my dog's body for a few days while I finalized ideas for memorabilia. They honored my wishes with such grace and compassion. When I needed an urn, they went above and beyond, showing me their inventory so I could select the perfect one, as each wood option was uniquely cut and meaningful. Their attention to detail and genuine care for my situation made such a difference. Despite my attempts to give them a cash tip as a thank-you, they kindly refused and asked that I leave a review instead. So here it is (a YEAR later): Caring Pathways offers incredible service with a truly compassionate touch. I can't recommend them enough.
