★★★★★ I have been going to Vida veterinary care since I adopted my dog in 2019. They have always taken care of us and have had my best interest in mind by being open to ways I can save money (emergency visits can be expensive). The most recent experience I had was taking my dog to the emergency vet, but the team was able to get me scheduled for a regular vet visit. The doctors quickly saw my dog and we were off in a couple of minutes, my peace of mind in tact with confidence Hachi would be okay. Thank you to Joshua, who was our veterinary technician for your professionalism and excellent service.Alexis Hermosura (.Alexis Hermosura (. ★★★★★ Excellent Customer Service! Our Dobby Mando loves Dr. Williams and his medical assistant Joshua. They always are very friendly, very professional and knowledgeable! Thank You for all your help!yelena N.yelena N. ★★★★★ I've been going to Vida since I got Simon my cat in 2020. It has always been a pleasant experience. Both Dr Williams and Joshua are so kind and caring towards Simon and myself. Highly recommend their care and will be a continued client!Megan E.Megan E. ★★★★★ Best affordable vet care in Denver.All of the doctors are great but we try to see Dr. Williams. He is pretty fantastic at explainging everything going on with your pet. He works really with my anxious dog.All the techs are amazing as well. Super helpful in person and over the phone. Shout out to Joshua for also being really good with an anxious dog.Chelsea S.Chelsea S. ★★★★★ I have been taking my Bassett hound, Luna, here for two years & it has always been the BEST experience.I am always nervous/anxious bringing my dog in, and the employees here have a remarkable ability to keep the dog & their owner at ease.Huge shout out to CHARLEEN, JOSHUA, AND DR. WILLIAMS for their extreme kindness & patience. The amount of love & care, they show my Bassett hound, is truly tear-inducing.Thank you for always providing the best care to my pet!Bryce B.Bryce B. ★★★★★ What a great experience we had at Vida! All things considered, we had an emergency with one of our chickens and they got us in right away at 9:30pm, since our regular Avian vet was closed. The tech was professional and we did not feel pressured into any procedures. We felt we could make our own informed decisions with animal care. Dr. Gosselin was so nice and welcoming as well and listened to everything we had to tell her. Even though the office is pretty far from us, we will definitely return with our Avians whether it be an emergency or not. Thank you Vida!Donya H.Donya H. ★★★★★ Dr. Gosselin & Joshua were life savers this past week! My young Sun Conure, Pyro, started going downhill on Tuesday after I noticed he began acting lethargic and scratching his ears. He had an appointment for his regular vet that Friday, but while I was watching him closely he began vomiting and slowly declining. We decided we couldn’t wait and that there was a chance he would not make it until then. I called VIDA in a panic because they are a recommended vet here in NOCO in an avian emergency or urgent situation. Good avian vets are so sparse here and in an emergency even more so. They immediately answered and we quickly decided I should bring him down as an urgent care patient. We live an hour north but got in the car and drove our way down! They were ready for him as soon as we got there, made sure he was stable, and got him all ready to be checked out. I thoroughly approve of their very detailed bird intake, 5 stars for an awesome questionnaire. They were so welcoming and kind; Dr. Gosselin let me hold him while she gently listened and checked him over. Joshua was so wonderful, made sure we were comfortable, and that Pyro was as well. Dr. Gosselin did a crop swab and fecal; he had some funky bacteria in there so she thought some stronger antibiotics and some pain meds were the way to go. She didn’t try to push any unnecessary tests unless he was still not better and would need them later on. She explained everything to us in detail. So amazing! The bill was also incredibly reasonable, we were shocked at how much less it was than we were expecting. They both made it an easier and comforting experience despite how worried I was. They let me know I could call or bring him back in anytime before 10pm multiple times if he still wasn’t improving and even recommended another emergency vet (Evolution) if he was dire and they weren’t there! All of this was so important to me, as I had a horrible experience not long ago with a vet up here that resulted in the loss of one of my bird babies. This was the total opposite experience and they absolutely washed my anxiety away. I recommend them to anyone here in CO with birds in a situation like Pyro’s. I am so pleased to say Pyro has improved tremendously in the last few days and he is almost back to his normal, crazy self! Thank you Dr. Gosselin & Joshua; I am forever grateful you have helped my sweet boy feel so much better.Perin Jarrett (.Perin Jarrett (. ★★★★★ Cheaper consultation than most places, just wish they were 24hr. Staff is really nice and gave me a good idea of what I need to do to help me lizard recover. It’s a + too that they even have an exotic vet.Caleb F.Caleb F. ★★★★★ Ive always had the best experience bringing my cats here, the staff and doctors are always very kind and take the best care of my animals!Taylor De L.Taylor De L. ★★★★★ Dr. LaVon and Tyler are excellent dog care providers!

Very professional. Appreciate their care.Mary G.Mary G. ★★★★★ Dr Levon and Tyler took great care of my sweet pup!shawna S.shawna S. ★★★★★ This is my second time bring my dog here and on both visits they have treated me and my dog so nicely. They have great service and the waiting time is pretty average if I say so myselfGuadalupe S.Guadalupe S. ★★★★★ My rescue chameleon has been having lots of problems recently, some reoccurring from her former home and some new ones. Dr Zalesak and Joshua were very kind and knowledgeable when working with me and my girl. In the end we decided to go with hospice care treatment for my chameleon. I would 100% go back again if she or any future chameleons of mine were sick or injured. 5 stars, I thank the whole staff for helping us through this tough time.Mia H.Mia H. ★★★★★ Vida's been my boy (One-Eyed) Jack's vet since we moved here from LA and they've been nothing but wonderful. We recently had Joshua as our Tech and Dr. Z as our vet -- both great! Joshua only *looks* intimidating. 😉 And Jack's been in great hands with Dr. Z, especially amid this mystery respiratory illness that Jack has been dealing with. Thank you all! Lots of love and fur. <3Ali D.Ali D. ★★★★★ When my bunny started showing symptoms of E Cuniculi, we rushed her to Vida and they knew exactly what to do. I was scared out of my mind but they took amazing care of my girl and made me feel very confident in the care she was receiving. Their staff are all so lovely and kindhearted and so knowledgeable! We have a long road ahead of us but I know Bonnie is in great hands ❤️ Thank you so much Vida!!Alana M.Alana M. ★★★★★ Had a fabulous experience at Vida Vet Care, starting with Tyler R. who diligently followed up on Baloo and ensured he would be seen as soon as possible. I have never met someone as attentive and empathetic as Tyler!Dr. Z and Josh were also spectacular– they walked me through all the options for Baloo and were extremely patient throughout the appointment. Dr. Z even followed up over the weekend, which I was not expecting– it clearly demonstrates that every employee at Vida Vet Care truly cares about the well-being of their patients, both animal and human! Thank you Tyler, Dr. Z, and Josh!Tia B.Tia B. ★★★★★ They truly care!!! Been going here for years!Janine V.Janine V. ★★★★★ We LOVE Vida vet care in Denver.

The staff is great!Mari R.Mari R. ★★★★★ They have always been super helpful and professional! All the staff are super friendly and supportive!

Vet technicians Charlene so friendly and informative, and Vet Dr. Rachelson is a game changer for my frenchie’s skin issues! Dr Rachelson diagnosed his issues and help coach me to a better life for my pooch! I highly recommend!!!Rachelle G.Rachelle G. ★★★★★ Update 11/22/23 - I have brough all my cats here and they all have received wonderful care, they do a great job of being up front and transparent about pricing. Both of my cats were here purring away, the staff is so incredible and caring. 11/24/22 - I had to bring my cat in on Thanksgiving night, they were more than understanding and caring. They ran bloodwork, determined the best course of action and were very open and transparent about pricing and options I had. Ultimately we had to put my cat down, they let me spend as much time as I needed with her and were very respectful and caring. Everyone I came into contact here was so nice and compassionate. I came to pick up her ashes a few days later, they even were able to fufill my request of having a nose print instead of a paw print. They included a very sweet handwritten card that I really appreciated. I will gladly bring my other cat here for care.Aryanna F.Aryanna F. ★★★★★ I just adopted my baby and have been taking him to VIDA. I have nothing but great things to say, they walked me through & explained everything he needed in great detail and got me in so quickly for both his wellness visit and his neuter. They’ve also followed up with me numerous times to check on him which has meant the world to me. VIDA truly cares about their patients and I’d highly recommend them to anyone!Kasey C.Kasey C. ★★★★★ I have been taking my cat Moosh to Vida in Denver since she was a kitten (she's now 4). I have never met a more wonderful team than Dr. Kelsey Schroeder, Tyler, & Hannah. Their kindness, authenticity, and attention to detail is unmatched regarding their care for animals, and their customer service skills. Best Vida Vet team that I've experienced in years. They not only eased Moosh's anxiety, they eased mine too! I am happy to put the trust of Moosh's care in their hands, and that really means a lot. Thank you to this team for their hard work and dedication to care for pet clients, and their owners too!BrittnyBrittny ★★★★★ I have been taking my 3 dogs to Vida Vet care for years now and have received nothing but the best care. The staff are incredibly kind and patient with my dogs and always make sure they are comfortable with what they are doing. My dogs have had procedures done here from a spay to two mass removals and all surgeries have gone well and my dogs healed up great. I also love that I can reach them via email with questions that I don't need urgently answered. I seriously cannot say enough about the wonderful staff and their care of my dogs who are my family.Julie S.Julie S. ★★★★★ Had quite the scare with my dogs dew claw being ripped off. I brought him to vida immediately and they had him take care of in a couple hours. Highly recommend!Bobby M.Bobby M. ★★★★★ Vida has been taking care of our dog for many years. They are always so kind and take the absolute best care of her. Thank you soo much for keeping our dog healthy!nic G.nic G. ★★★★★ Dr Kaplan Stein is the best Dr! I cannot begin to describe how much this Dr cares for your pets. She will sit patiently with you and go over evetything in detail. I know my bunnies are in the very best hands.M P.M P. ★★★★★ A couple months back, I had to take a bunny that I was pet sitting in because of a fight between two bunnies. She had to get stitches, and they took really good care of her.Last week, my bunny ripped his nail while running in his bedroom and they bandaged him up and gave him pain medication. Both times they were kind, did good work, and explained directions and answered any questions well. I don't like going to the emergency vet, but feel confident in their hands.Christina E.Christina E. ★★★★★ I cannot thank Dr. Schroeder & the staff at Vida enough for their care with my kitty. I brought my cat in after moving and her not eating for quite a few days. While other vets panicked & scared me more, the Vida staff treated me with empathy & compassion. They got me in for a regular appointment within an hour and a half of opening following Labor Day weekend! Thankfully we had a best case scenario & my kitty’s blood test came back great. Within a few hours of an appetite stimulant & fluids my kitty was back to eating & feeling noticeably better. Thank you again!Jackie S.Jackie S. ★★★★★ Update: 5 star review - VIDA vet care has excellent service and communication. Thank you for your compassion and care!Original review 2019:5 star service: I love they vets and techs. Compassionate and quick. Book appointments online. 4 stars bc they take your dog in the back to do procedures and don't use treats. But I trust the vets to care for my dog.Emily H.Emily H. ★★★★★ Great team of professional caring individuals! It's quite a drive for us and it was close to 11 pm but Dr Caplan-Stein and her team patiently explained everything we could expect through every step of the way. We even reveived a txt within an hour of our departure to check how Bam-Bam was recovering from his sedation! And two days later Giselle followed up with a phone call to check on Bam-Bam's progress. These people genuinely care and I will never go anywhere else!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Chilly W.Chilly W. ★★★★★ All staff was very caring. They got me in urgently the same day. I have been with Vida for over 25 years.becky S.becky S. ★★★★★ Came here after getting a reference, 11/10 was exactly what we needed. Great experience with the whole after hours team. Kind, informative, efficient, clean. Amazing place for ER and regular hours care. Thanks so much!!LaurieLaurie ★★★★★ Even though the outcome wasn't what I'd hoped for, they took very good care of my chicken. They did what was best and they were very compassionate.Jamie XJamie X ★★★★★ My vet was very knowledgeable and helpful with my sister's pet question. She was very worried about her puppySoph R.Soph R. ★★★★★ I love this vet office, get it has emergency hours. All the stuff are friendly and caring. Took dog here when she had a accident and got her nail caught. They took care of her right away. They do all her shots and listen with any questions I might have. I moved far away compared to when I picked this vet but staying with them, they are worth the drive.Rebecca C.Rebecca C. ★★★★★ To say Olivia is not a fan of the vet is an understatement. She has severe anxiety the minute we walk in. This was my first time visiting and I explained how she could be. The vet techs were so understanding and patient with Olivia. When they saw her becoming anxious they didn't keep pushing her. It saved all of us a lot of unnecessary aggravation. They sedated her immediately and brought her into the room a few times so I could see her. This is such a great gesture since I'm always a little concerned when she needs to go under. Dr. Williams was great too. He took his time with her and with me on explaining all that he did for the visit. We just moved to Denver and I found this vet clinic and I am so happy we did! Thank you Vida Vet!Sarah K.Sarah K. ★★★★★ The Doctors and Assistants are always great and really take care of our doggie, Ty! She actually doesn't "put on the brakes" when we go there! Thanks Dr. Williams and Giselle!Abbe M.Abbe M. ★★★★★ Amazing staff, very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Bear The Guniea Pig thanks you guys for always being so helpful, and helping him heal. 🐻🕉️💖james B.james B. ★★★★★ I had a fantastic experience with the VIDA team over the weekend. My dog was attacked by another dog during a walk, and she needed immediate medical attention. The VIDA team picked up the phone as soon as I called, took her in right away and treated her quickly and carefully. They were extremely kind and compassionate, as both my dog and I were very upset following the incident. Highly recommend them! Thank you so much, VIDA team <3Laura R.Laura R. ★★★★★ The staff here is amazing. Everyone is so caring of the animals!Sydney V.Sydney V. ★★★★★ I love this vet. They take really good care of my guinea pigs. The staff are all so incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, and the clinic is clean and aesthetically pleasing. Dr. Z really knows a lot about guinea pigs! She handled my piggy so well. I was very impressed. Glad I found this vet in Denver; it’s hard to find places that know how to care for guinea pigs.Yo MYo M ★★★★★ VIDA vets and staff are knowledgeable and caring - this should be your first stop when you need care for an exotic pet. They will take time to examine your pet and answer all of your questions.Trish T.Trish T. ★★★★★ They are always so caring and kind and take great Care of our bunniessuzanne B.suzanne B. ★★★★★ Always very caring and understand my pets' and my needs and wants. I only wish I could give them ten stars 🐈‍⬛😁👍jamie E.jamie E. ★★★★★ Great exotic vet on Mondays.. she was amazing and highly recommended. We took our bearded dragon and were very happy with the visit!Carolyn A.Carolyn A. ★★★★★ Honestly I've been coming here for 7 years now, as it covers all my cats needs for both the regular appointments, as well as the after hours or emergency needs for any sudden events or accidents that my cat has made over the years. Always happy to see my cat, willing to talk me through bills and procedures, provide info about care after any surgeries, and have managed to help keep my costs fairly low for major procedures. Overall, I would always recommend their services, and have done so in the past. Photos are just my happy cat, but hey - it's due in large part to Vida!M CM C ★★★★★ Dr Katy Levon is the best Vet in Colorado!!!Joseph B.Joseph B. ★★★★★ Love this location so much. The vets actually are so honest and never spring for unnecessary tests or labs or even medications, they’re always up front about the issue, what’s to be expected and what’s needed while remaining affordable. So thankful for every staff member here too, they’re all so kind and considerate. Love that they treat everybody like their favorite!thalia A.thalia A. ★★★★★ Vida is the only place I will go for my lizards, whether it’s regular check ups or medical services. Anytime I come in the technicians immediately bring a heat lamp and try to make the time safe and comfortable. The staff is extremely thorough and you can tell they truly care about all animals brought in. They’ve always been very supportive during the harder conversations and worked with me to make sure my lizards get the best care possible. I trust them 100% 🙂Alex M.Alex M. ★★★★★ Dr. Nielson first saw, Brandy, our 13-year-old lab, about 8 months ago. Brandy was in decline and we thought that day had come. Long story short, Dr. Nielson was just what we and Brandy needed. She gave us 8 more months with Brandy, and we were able to celebrate her 14th birthday. When that day did come, Dr. Nielson and her Team exceeded any expectation of compassion to us and our beloved Brandy. Dr. Nielson made a gut-wrenching day - better. She is brilliant and empathetic. She is our vet forever.Noel C.Noel C. ★★★★★ Annie and Leah were amazing and compassionately helped us say goodbye to our elderly dog. Thank you guys again!Savannah S.Savannah S. ★★★★★ Great place, great staff and they are will to work with youAntonio M.Antonio M. ★★★★☆ Great vet facility with excellent vets. The only think wrong was the greeter at the front desk. She was either having a bad day or maybe she just has a chip on her shoulder. Needs another position.Sebaj404 !Sebaj404 ! ★★★★☆ I've always had a good service here. I feel very comfortable with the exotic veterans.Aimee K.Aimee K. ★★★★☆ I called them on Sunday after my parrot was involved in an accident. The receptionist was very caring with directions etc. Regrettably my companion of 39 years died in my arms. I do appreciate them.Fred K.Fred K.js_loader

I cannot sing the praises of this Veterinarian office enough! They are the kindest, most helpful people I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. My chinchilla was suffering, and they squeezed me in to their busy books, helped sort him out, and it didn’t break my bank. They even called the following day to check up on him. I truly felt like they cared about my fur baby, and that they were invested on seeing him get better. Thank you so much! I will be returning with all my exotic, and normal pets, in the future- hopefully under better, more normal circumstances!

Allie

This is a top-notch vet clinic. I experienced quality care and excellent communication at all points along the way as they treated my cat with an emergency. Their follow-up has been superb (they actually called me to check in as I was writing this review!). I wish they were available for 24-7 intake/calls, but I 100% value the service they provide.

Troy R.

I always bring my pets to Vida, anything from my rats, to cats, to dogs. They’ve always been super kind to me and my pets, they’ve been very accommodating and offer great service. Every time I go to Vida I know I won’t have to come back 2 seconds later because they PROPERLY diagnose and treat my animals. I never regret coming to this vet.

Christiana S.

Vida Vet Care has done an amazing job caring for my dogs young and old for more than 10 years. I’ve used them for surgeries, annual exams and for a number of emergencies. Throughout it all they have always given my pets compassionate care. Making appointments is a breeze and appointments generally run on time. I give them a 5 star rating.

D.C.

I absolutely adore this vet! My first visit ever was due to my normal vet being closed and needing an after hours emergency visit. Since then they have become my primary vet. I have always had a pleasant experience with all of the staff. They are very welcoming, and have still found ways to make it a pleasant and comforting experience during these covid times. I have brought in both my dogs and my guinea pigs to this establishment and 99% of the time have had great results. The only unfortunate one was the recent passing of my mom’s guinea pig, due to no fault of theirs, but later found out, due to an autopsy kindly offered for free by the vet, cancer. She was very sweet, and both called my mom, as well as sent her a card sending condolences. I could not more highly recommend this establishment!

T.J.

The doctors and staff at Vida Centennial are kind, knowledgeable and professional. They always take such great care of my dog and make her feel at ease even those vet visits make her a bit nervous. They routinely call to follow up with how things are going 24-48 hours after a visit. I recommend them to anyone looking for quality care for their pets. Keep up the great work!
