Fort Collins Veterinary Emergency and Rehabilitation Hospital

Amazing capability and a fabulous place. Never heard of HBOT til recently, and I am so happy we found this place. Love, love, love the group there. Michael is so professional and knowledgeable. Dr Jess Rykle is just amazing. They are compassionate, caring and so brilliant. Whenever my poor pupper goes there he ends up leaving so energized.
If you have never heard of HBOT, I only learned of it a week or so ago. It is hyperbaric oxygen treatment that is 100% oxygen within a chamber that really helps with healing infections and increases good cell growth, etc.
All I know is that it has made a HUGE positive, mediate difference for my dog and am hoping there are long term benefits too.

I normally stick to reviewing restaurants, but we had such a great experience, I had to give them a review!
Our young Cavalier had a turkey bacon treat stuck at the back of his mouth and we tried to get it out ourselves, but just kept getting more concerned.
We came here after a previous recommendation from our vet and they removed the snack very quickly.
Everyone was super friendly and the cost was nowhere near what we feared for a late night visit!
Hopefully we’ll never have to come back, but I wouldn’t hesitate to come here if needed.

So glad our vet referred us to FCVEH two years ago when Kodi, our Golden Retriever tore a second ACL. He had already gone through one surgical repair which was quite invasive. We were happy not to have him go through that a second time. Dr. Lindsay Fry is awesome. Kodi loves going to therapy, and he is doing great! Highly recommend this facility and their rehabilitation staff!

I was very impressed. My dog had a major surgery at another vet hospital that unfortunately does not do overnight observation, so hey had us bring her here. Everyone was super friendly, and treated our pup as one of their own.
If your vet is not open 24 hrs. or doesn’t handle emergencies, you should definitely keep this number on file.

This vet hospital also provides rehabilitation services and has some awesome practitioners. I’ve been bringing my 12 year-​old standard poodle here for monthly underwater treadmill, physical therapy, acupuncture, and laser therapy visits for not quite 6 months (yes, as a matter of fact, I do spend more on her healthcare than my own …). This wasn’t directly related to an injury, I just had noticed that my normally very active dog was enjoying her walks less and less and that oftentimes she didn’t even want to come along when I took my other dog out. My normal vet did an ortho exam and said she didn’t have arthritis so didn’t really think there was anything to be done but to accept that she was getting older and slowing down (to which I say, age is not a medical condition!)
During our initial consultation at the FCVERH, the doctor confirmed that my dog didn’t have arthritis, but that she had very sore muscles all along her spine, particularly around her neck. My regular vet had treated a pinched nerve in her neck with muscle relaxants and pain meds the year before and while it seemed like she had recovered, apparently she has been guarding the injury which has led to muscular imbalances and the soreness. I noticed an immediate improvement after her first cycle of acupuncture, laser therapy, etc. — my dog had the spring back in her step, she wasn’t scraping her feet anymore during our walk, and we took a 45-​minute walk along the same route that had taken well over an hour the day before. The effects lasted about a week, then tailed off. With our subsequent visits the improvement has been less dramatic immediately, but seem to last for longer. We also get suggestions for exercises we can do to keep her back supple and to work on some of those muscles that have atrophied, so that is certainly a factor in the results we are seeing. Monthly or a little longer than monthly visits seem to be about the right «maintenence interval» for her.
The downside — these folks are pretty busy, and getting that first consultation visit scheduled took a while (I think it was 3 – 4 weeks before we could get in). Likewise, you pretty much need to schedule your regular appointments about 4 weeks ahead, so bummer for you if something comes up and you need to reschedule.

The other reviews on Google gave me paws but there aren’t many choices at 1AM so I took my kitty here. I did not realize my kitty had died in transit or as I walked into the vet since I could not see into the canvas carrier. They tried to bring her back but could not, and after a point the doc suggested that they probably should not try anymore. They did not charge me near the standard listed price for CPR. Everyone was very nice and compassionate. Doctor Romero was especially nice and took time to discuss my other sick cat’s symptoms and what may have caused this kitty’s demise. They made a paw print in clay to memorialize my kitty at no cost. While I agree the office/​reception area is in dire need of a make-​over, I won’t hesitate to return when the need arises.

My dog was having hip issues one morning and could barely walk. I’d been to the CSU vet hospital several times before, but the wait is always pretty significant. So I tried out this place and was extremely impressed.
The techs were able to get be in to see a vet immediately. In all, I was in and out of the clinic in under 30 minutes, where as that appears to be the typical wait time at CSU.
The vet did a thorough check of the animal offered pills for comfort and gave me several strategies to help the dog out in the future. The vet gave me some stretches that I could do for the dog that would alleviate this problem.
The best part is when the bill came. It appeared to be significantly cheaper than it would have been at CSU.
