Monday my small dog fell from a great height fracturing his leg. It's only Thursday now he has already had surgery and he is back home and acting is as if nothing had happened to him. This accident happened 60 miles away from Colorado Springs but I didn't trust to take my best friend anywhere else. I could not be happier with the team at Westside they were so gracious and so accommodating not only to my pet but to me as well. They had him doing x-rays within minutes of me bringing him into their office, they explained everything to me the procedures everything I needed to know. And I know my pet was treated very well as when it came time to leave he did not seem all that anxious to go. I would never take my pet anywhere else these guys are the best and I am lucky to have them as veterinarians Read Less

I’ve been a client of Westside for over a year. From the first wellness visit to yesterday’s tooth extraction, my Pomeranian Maya has been treated professionally by people who appear to truly care about her wellness. The hospital is always clean and organized, the staff always friendly and helpful, and Maya appears comfortable. I’ve taken past pets to other “lower cost” veterinary clinics and have never felt as confident and trusting with my dog as I do with Dr. Hutchinson and staff. They’ve been upfront and honest about my options for level of care and have done exactly what is necessary for Maya. I feel their rates are comparable to other quality, privately owned clinics. Thank you, Westside, for taking away Maya’s tooth pain. She’s back to normal after less than 24 hours. For quality care, I recommend Westside. Read Less

I took my dog there after she had pulled out her sutures. My regular vet hadn't gotten back to me, I didn't feel comfortable waiting and westside said they could squeeze me in. Instead of replacing them with individual sutures, since we discussed that she was able to reach them with a cone on, they did one single continuous stitch, which she got out ,with the cone on, about 3 hours after leaving the vet in the amount of time it took me to show, so maybe ten minutes at the longest. Waste of $400. I had gotten in touch with her regular vet by that time, where I spent about the same for much better quality work. The people at west side animal hospital were very nice and accommodating but I was very disappointed when my vet explained the problems with the suture they put in. I haven't had any trouble with the sutures that my regular vet did. Read Less

Excellent staff, competent care, compassionate attitudeYears ago, we adopted a weak, 2 year-old rescue dog with an autoimmune disorder, and no one expected her to live very long.  Thanks in large part to the care we've received at Westside, our dog is now just shy of 16-1/2, and although she has never stopped needing a vet's care, she has three Colorado mountains over 14,000' to her credit and has added joy to several lives. She has her "senior challenges" and has kept the Westside staff busy but we still have to walk briskly to keep up with her (on the way home, that is!). She is a tribute to the entire staff.Westside has cared for three of our other dogs over the years and we rate the care highly. They are curious, attentive, and willing to research. Great care, pawsitive review. Read Less

I called just about every vet in town to get my ancient cat in for a tooth to be removed. It was probably by chance that I went with West Side, they had an appointment available much sooner than most vets that I called. They even called me when there was a surgery cancellation and my cat was able to get everything taken care of in less than a week from my first call. My experience going in was unlike the other recent times I had visited the vet with my ancient, overweight, cranky pet cat. Firstly, the front desk and waiting area (has a useful airlock) is comfortable, clean, warm, and has a very professional atmosphere like a nicer hotel. The vet did not berate me for 'letting my cat get fat' or not brushing her teeth. The vet did not try to be macho at all, and took cues from my cat to determine what she could and could not do without irritating the cat. After blood work, she even praised my kitty on her patience (I don't know if I believe that). The vet didn't beat around the bush when it came time to discuss costs, she gave me two estimates a high end estimate (around 1,000) and a low end estimate(around 500), she let me know that in both scenarios there was a 'wellness plan' available that would cover a majority of the costs and I would pay a lot less out of pocket, as well as getting a whole year's worth of checkups, shots, etc for my cat. I decided to go with it (for about 70 a month) because my cat is getting so old. Two days later, bloodwork is good, cat goes in for a cleaning and potential tooth extraction. They let me drop her off at 7:30 and scheduled pickup for 2:30. I got several calls from the vet to discuss complications unique to my cat, and he let me make the choice on whether they should proceed or complete more x-rays etc. My cat apparently has a slight heart murmur, but it wasn't an issue, she went under fine, got her teeth cleaned, and had 2 teeth removed. I ended up paying less than 500 out of pocket, despite needing additional x-rays, opting for some of the higher cost options, etc. I got x-rays on a disk and they even trimmed my cat's nails (probably for their own safety). The vet gave the cat praise for her patience again and discussed her meds/ etc. The vet didn't try to change my mind about my cat's diet (another vet gave me a long lecture on switching my cat back to dry food that made her overweight and constipated in the first place), and agreed it would help with her weight and water intake. Didn't try to pressure me to brush my cat's teeth or anything suicidal like that, and scheduled a follow up appointment in 3 months to check on her weight and check out her heart again. I left even feeling pretty good about the whole thing because they drew a smiley face on the paperwork and said her other teeth were all perfect. I don't feel like a bad pet owner. All of the staff was helpful, and genuinely interested in my cat. Everyone was very gentle with me, even though I don't express much, the whole ordeal was very hard for me, and I appreciate the kindness they showed my cat. Most importantly, Rectangle is back to her normal self and just as belligerent and murderous without fangs as she was with them, much to the chagrin of any rodents or lizards in a 1 mile radius.

We have been coming to Westside Animal Clinic for two years and we can't sing their praises enough. The first time we had to take our 8 yr. old cat for dental work and they were so helpful and honest. They told us the price ( which was $900 less) than the vet we used for our male cat and let us make two payments 30 days apart. We were very surprised because all others pretty much turned us down when it came to this. We now take all three of our fur-babies to them and won't go anywhere else. They are very professional, honest and friendly whether it is in person or on the phone. They take their time and answer all questions to make sure you feel comfortable with what they are doing. They don't try to push procedures that aren't necessary because they care. We have referred them to friends and will continue to refer them. We are so lucky to have them to take care of our fur-babies and us. Read Less

I'm a single mom of a special needs child and in law school and they made me feel very bad about not having much money when I just spent over $200.00 for a visit to get her a refill. Still no meds.

I left even feeling pretty good about the whole thing because they drew a smiley face on the paperwork and said her other teeth were all perfect. I don't feel like a bad pet owner. All of the staff was helpful, and genuinely interested in my cat. Everyone was very gentle with me, even though I don't express much, the whole ordeal was very hard for me, and I appreciate the kindness they showed my cat. Most importantly, Rectangle is back to her normal self and just as belligerent and murderous without fangs as she was with them, much to the chagrin of any rodents or lizards in a 1 mile radius.

The doctor called me personally and spoke with me for at least 10 minutes about my cat. It wasn't about the money for him. Great folks great place!

We have been coming to Westside Animal Clinic for two years and we can't sing their praises enough. The first time we had to take our 8 yr. old cat for dental work and they were so helpful and honest. They told us the price ( which was $900 less) than the vet we used for our male cat and let us make two payments 30 days apart. We were very surprised because all others pretty much turned us down when it came to this. We now take all three of our fur-babies to them and won't go anywhere else. They are very professional, honest and friendly whether it is in person or on the phone. They take their time and answer all questions to make sure you feel comfortable with what they are doing. They don't try to push procedures that aren't necessary because they care. We have referred them to friends and will continue to refer them. We are so lucky to have them to take care of our fur-babies and us. Read Less

We had an emergency today with our dog. My wife and I were out of town and had asked our caregiver to take him to the hospital as he was convulsing. We were told that since we are "inactive" clients, they wouldn't see out Dog unless our caregiver assumed financial responsibility.(meaning paying them first) Clearly I see where their focus is, its not on the animals well for sure!!Read Less

They won't give me any more medicine for my very old cat unless I spend hundreds on tests. I'm a single mom of a special needs child and in law school and they made me feel very bad about not having much money when I just spent over $200.00 for a visit to get her a refill. Still no meds. My cat is going to die. Thank you for taking the last of her life and making it harder on my son and I. Read Less
