Compassion Animal Hospital

Their name is accurate, they are very compassionate. Please note they are a full service veterinarian. Our cat was dying and the vet we've been to a few times near our home said we couldn't bring him in to ease his pain because we needed an appointment. Ellen at Compassion told us to bring him in right away and they'd make room for us, even though we've never been there before. Dr Greg and the entire staff were very gentle and empathetic. They will be our first choice for all our vet needs in the future, even though we pass 3 other vet offices on the way. Read Less

We've been coming to Compassion Animal Hospital for the last 8 years with three dogs. Dr. Cooper is fantastic! He is thorough, kind and honest in his assessment of every pet and their ailment... And his staff is absolutely wonderful! Would recommend Compassion to everyone with a four legged family member! Read Less

I have been here multiple times with my dogs, each time on the urgent and unexpected side. They have always been beyond helpful, and very very reasonable with working with my budget. They also get me in right away every time. I feel very fortunate to have found them. Read Less

Dr. Cooper & Company are always welcoming and comforting for both myself and my pooch. Cider, our 11 year old yellow lab is always happy to see Dr. Cooper and knows that he's well taken care of. A tremendous asset to our small community. Keep up the great work!!! Read Less

I am sharing my families experience with this horrible, incompetent, joke of a business due to the fact that they DESTROYED my daughters 8th birthday and could care less about their utter lack of accountability towards their ADMITTED faults.  Please read the entire review, although it is long winded it was necessary to be able to show the extreme scope of this company's lack of compassion which directly contradicts their name "COMPASSION ANIMAL HOSPITAL". First, being very new residents to Woodland Park ... my family googled the local area to find a boarding kennel for the weekend of 6/24-6/26. After finding Compassion Animal Hospital on the internet, my wife phoned the business to schedule the boarding of our dog. The reason for boarding the dog was due to the fact that we were taking our daughter(s) to the Great Wolf Lodge Hotel/Waterpark for the weekend and they do not permit animals. ($333.77 for a room and waterpark tickets PAID UPFRONT ... this will be important later) zero-Compassion Animal Hospital made our reservations as we requested. Prior to the weekend that we scheduled our boarding and The Wolf Lodge our daughter became ill with what we thought was pink eye. After visiting the Urgent care we were relieved to find out that it was simply an allergy related issue and she would be fine to go in approx. a week (weekend of 7/1-7/3)  We immediately called zero-Compassion Animal Hospital to re-schedule our boarding/kennel visit. We PURPOSELY called the kennel BEFORE re-scheduling with The Great Wolf Lodge in order to make sure that we were covered for boarding our dog and then we could re-schedule the HOTEL.( the hotel only allows ONE emergency reschedule and it was also going to cost us $50 more  total hotel now $383.77  We were told by zero-COMPASSION Animal Hospital that we now had a reservation for the weekend of 7/1-7/3. We re-iterated with the receptionist that we had the exact same reservations except 1 WEEK later ( 7/1-7/3 instead of 6/24-6/26)  My wife even went as far as to offer our phone number again and the receptionist replied " I will grab it from the previous reservation.. See you NEXT weekend".  All was good ... WE THOUGHT!!!!!Fast forward to Saturday 7/1 10:15 am.... Family was busy getting ready to leave, daughter(s) EXTREMELY excited and couldn't stop smiling. My wife left to take the dog to zero-COMPASSION ANIMAL HOSPITAL for our SCHEDULED boarding 7/1-7/3 . Can you guess what happens next?  THERE WAS A SIGN ON THE DOOR THAT Read "closed 7/1-7/4"!!!!!!!!  My wife knocked on the door , called the phone number and NOTHING!!.  WE HAD A CONFIRMED SCHEDULED APPOINTMENT TO DROP OFF OUR DOG FOR THE WEEKEND AND THEY WERE CLOSED???? WTF IS GOING ON??  After multiple calls to their phone number and multiple voicemails with no return....  WE WERE SUNK!!  I phoned the Great Wolf Lodge and they apologetically re-iterated that we had already used our ONE TIME EMERGENCY RE-SCHEDULE (COMPANY POLICY) and we were now way less than 24 hrs from our checkin time. We were FORCED TO ABANDON OUR DAUGHTERS 8TH BIRTHDAY WEEKEND AND LOST RIGHT AT $400 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  THIS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE!! We have since phoned zero-Compassion Animal Hospital and spoke with them..  The staff has relayed to us that Dr. Cooper himself has told them that they will not compensate our family in any way, even though they have admitted to us that it was their fault for scheduling our boarding on a weekend that they were closed!!!   This is the most COWARDLY, despiteful, disgusting attitude from an "established business" that I have ever been subjected to, let alone an 8 YEAR OLD LITTLE GIRL!   So to re-cap my family has lost almost $400 cash (difficult for a young family who just relocated to re-coup), but more importantly an 8 year old girls birthday weekend has been ruined. 100% due to the incompetent cowardly acts of Dr.Cooper and his staff at zero-Compassion Animal Hospital in Woodland Park Colorado. Please, I implore you to seek out another kennel/veterinary/groomer... There are more locally that will bend over backwards to give you great service.  And to Dr. Cooper and his staff... I feel an obligation to share this with EVERY PERSON that I possibly can  including but not limited to social media ( you have no idea the power this has these days) , internet reviews ( google, yelp, yellow pages ect) , websites and chat rooms (Better Business Bureau, Consumer Affairs dept, .avma.org.  , worldvet.org, hsvma.org (humane society) ect ect    ) You and your horrible institution have treated our family as if they do not matter in this community.. You should be ashamed of your actions and it is my hope that not a single other patron graces your establishment. I will actively campaign to spread the horrible service that you have provided and the lack of accountability that you accept for your business even when you have admitted that you were at fault ... feel free to contact me 928-846-7647 Read Less

The entire staff take exceptional care of my four legged family members. I can trust them to always be available, within a reasonable timeframe, for any situation. Very inviting, friendly and affordable. Read Less

When we moved to Woodland Park, a friend told me Dr. Cooper and staff were the best. She was so right. The quality of care my elderly dog received was unsurpassed. I really feel that the care they provided gave him a longer happy life. Thank you so much. Read Less

We were in the area on vacation and needed to get some last-minute immunizations for our dog. Even though he knew we wouldn't be repeat customers, Dr. Cooper did a thorough examination and recommended some additional care for our dog. The front desk staff were also extremely helpful and friendly. Their prices were very reasonable as well. We didn't realize it until later, but our daughter left her sweater at the office and they mailed it back to us! Outstanding vet care with exceptional service! Read Less

Our Golden Retriever started having problems while on vacation. When I called they told me to bring her right in. They took good care of her and we felt they were sincerely concerned. Unfortunately, Daisy needed more tests so we decided to return to Houston. She needed surgery and is recuperating nicely at home. Thanks for helping Daisy. Read Less

We've been with Dr. Cooper for seven years and my dog loves him! No stress or anxiety in the office and the staff is always helpful. Dr. Cooper always takes the time to address each of our concerns and the tech is super! Read Less

It's tough to find the right words to explain how grateful I am to Dr. Cooper and his staff. They helped me through the extremely tough journey of diagnosing and treating my oldest cat for cancer. This process, from realization of her condition to her ultimate euthanasia, took weeks and all the energy and emotion I could muster. I was a wreck. I can't imagine any other vet's office being as compassionate or as understanding of what we were going through. Dr. Cooper is always very gentle with my cats. He and his staff are very patient and understanding, even when I'm an absolute mess. I would not have wanted my baby to pass from this world under anyone else's care. It was the hardest moment of my life but I felt supported through it. Read Less

We had a dog in distress and needed to be immediately. Would have appreciated a response to my email or a return phone call. Nothing! I question the title of Compassion. Contacted another local Vet and was seen within 30 minutes. Used your services before, but, never, again. Read Less
