What recent reviews say

Most clients report consistent, compassionate care from Dr. Converse and Dr. Jaynes, who earn pets' trust through patience and never rush appointments. The team knows animals by name, explains diagnostics clearly, and charges fairly for advanced work.

Two recent one-star reviews cite slow phone response when dogs were seriously ill and inflexible same-day scheduling during surgery blocks. These stand apart from the overwhelming pattern of trust and follow-up care, though they raise questions about triage during crises.

Praised for
  • compassionate, patient approach with reactive pets
  • thorough diagnosis and transparent communication
  • knowledgeable vets who take time to explain options
  • staff remembers pets by name and treats them like family
  • competitive pricing for level of expertise
Watch-outs
  • poor phone communication and follow-up callbacks
  • scheduling inflexibility on surgery days
  • perceived lack of attentiveness during serious illness
compassionate-staffknowledgeable-vetgentle-handlingtransparent-pricingresponsive-staffskilled-surgeonfollow-up-care
Best for: Owners of behaviorally challenging or anxious pets who value patient handling and long-term relationship building
Think twice if: Owners needing same-day urgent care on Thursdays or reliable phone callbacks when pets are acutely ill

Strengths

  • Dr. Converse and Dr. Jaynes build trust with reactive or anxious pets through calm, patient handling
  • Thorough diagnostic approach with same-day ultrasound and testing when clinically urgent
  • Honest pricing described as competitive relative to expertise and advanced equipment
  • Staff continuity; team members know individual pets across years of care

Worth knowing

  • Dr. Converse and Dr. Jaynes named as primary veterinarians
  • Recent discovery of foreign body obstruction during routine spay (Dr. Jaynes)
  • Team praised for handling Belgian Malinois and other reactive dogs without forcing interaction
  • Phone communication gaps noted in recent complaints; one reviewer stated doctor is 'always busy or in surgery' and callbacks do not consistently happen
  • Scheduling constraint: surgery days (stated as Thursdays) not flexible for same-day sick visits

Common questions

Does Advanced Veterinary Care do emergency same-day appointments?
They accommodate urgent cases and arranged same-day ultrasound in at least one instance, but scheduling on surgery days (Thursday) is stated as unavailable for non-surgical cases. Two recent reviews note callbacks from the doctor about urgent concerns did not happen consistently.
Are the vets good with anxious or reactive dogs?
Yes. Dr. Converse took time to let a reactive Belgian Malinois approach him without forcing interaction. Multiple reviewers note staff calms nervous dogs and they leave feeling loved.
What areas do you serve?
Their website lists Greenwood Village, Denver, Centennial, Englewood, Cherry Hills Village, Littleton, Cherry Knolls, and Highlands Ranch.

Eye Specialists for Animals

4.7(308)✓ Verified

Owners consistently report exceptional expertise and calm, caring staff who excel at complex eye conditions and surgery. Dr. Julien, Dr. Smith, and the team diagnose cases other vets cannot handle, perform intricate procedures like cataract and eyelid surgery with strong outcomes, and follow up personally. Two reviews note diagnostic limitations or ineffective treatment that left owners disappointed and out of pocket; one owner felt their specialized expectations were not met for a melanoma case. The clinic operates smoothly from intake through recovery, with kind technicians and receptionists who comfort anxious pets. Owners appreciate the relaxed atmosphere, prompt next-day appointments for urgent cases, and clear post-visit instructions. Pricing is described as fair for specialists, though emergency visits can run $242-$450 depending on complexity.

State Of The Heart Veterinary Care

Staff greet anxious pets and their owners with calm patience; vets listen closely and explain options without pushing costly procedures. Appointments come quickly, prices stay fair, and regulars praise the solo veterinarian's diagnostic skill and genuine care across routine and emergency visits. Two serious complaints over 170 reviews describe a confrontation with the owner over unmet promises about accommodation for an anxious dog. The vast majority trust this practice enough to return with multiple pets and recommend it unprompted.

Most visits deliver unhurried care from staff who treat nervous pets with genuine patience. Dr. Caldwell spends time understanding each animal's needs. Front-desk professionalism lapses occur, especially during emergencies or in-clinic pharmacy interactions; a few reviewers felt pressured into purchases or met dismissive responses when seeking end-of-life appointments.
