Red Rocks Animal Center

4.1(1086)✓ VerifiedPublishes prices

Regulars praise Red Rocks for low-cost care, staff warmth, and careful handling of pets, but recent reviews reveal serious cracks in follow-up. Patients report unreturned calls during medical crises, pharmacy medication delays stretching weeks, and conflicting diagnoses that required outside specialist review. The clinic offers broad services from puppy care to orthopedic surgery and emergency work, yet struggles with clear communication during treatment. Those seeking routine, affordable checkups often leave satisfied; those needing urgent follow-up or complex diagnostics report abandonment. A $25 first exam draws people in, but surprise pricing and procedural confusion-like refusing same-day X-rays-have eroded trust among recent patients.

Lakewood Veterinary Hospital

Lakewood Veterinary Hospital

4.7(788)✓ Verified

Lakewood Vet earns strong praise for attentive staff and skilled doctors who handle animals with genuine care. Patients repeatedly highlight thorough exams, follow-up calls, and a team genuinely invested in their pets. However, a handful report frustration: emergency access was denied when needed urgently, one owner felt talked down to after receiving incorrect appointment guidance, and a second opinion contradicted a vet's recommendations. The hospital serves established clients well but shows gaps when urgent support is needed most. Staff and veterinarians consistently demonstrate competence and kindness across routine care. Scheduling coordinator Brian is named for going above and beyond. Dr. Arcuri draws both strong praise for professionalism and criticism for misguided next-steps advice; Dr. Andrew receives credit for easing anxious dogs. Travel health certificates, allergy management, and routine preventive care are mentioned as handled competently. Wait times and accessibility remain a sticking point.

Sploot Veterinary Care - Belmar

4.8(455)✓ VerifiedPublishes prices

Staff earn consistent praise for kindness and genuine care, walking owners through options without pressure and keeping pets calm during stressful visits. The clinic excels at urgent and routine care alike, with weekend and holiday availability, transparent pricing, and named technicians like Kortnee and Dr. Berns earning repeat mentions. One pricing quote for dental extraction differed wildly from an initial phone estimate, and website hours were listed incorrectly, but these are isolated gripes in a 94% five-star review base. Sploot positions itself as Fear Free certified and offers wellness packages, spay/neuter, dental care, surgery, dermatology, and behavior consults. Their membership saves up to $650 annually. The Belmar location serves South Alameda, Creighton, Belmar Park, and wider metro Lakewood. Most reviewers note they treat young puppies, seniors with chronic issues, and nervous pets with equal attentiveness.
