Paws and Claws Veterinary Clinic 2721 West 120th Avenue, Westminster, CO 80234

"We had to bring our old man in last minute and they were so very kind and reasonably priced. We own a Chow Chow and this is the first time we've had such a good experience and most vets/techs are afraid and won't touch him. The doctor got on the ground with him was very knowledgeable and kind. When it was time for her shot it was fast and easy. So very pleased"

"The people here are friendly enough, but they haven't been able to help my dogs for years now. We finally found a new, more effective vet. I don't recommend them for older dogs, honestly. I had one doctor who showed such little concern for my dog's well-being that she was literally high at work. It's up to you if you want to use them or not, but I'm of the personal opinion that they're just not the best option out there, especially for older pets."

"They keep one of the employees' pet dog on a bed behind the counter within view of the door, which immediately starts barking at your cat when you walk in the door. I know vets can't control people's dogs in the waiting room, but this was something else. It also started barking at my cat when I came to check out. I said "that's not cool" and the office manager started shouting at me, saying I was "rude" the receptionist when I walked in. What did I do? I reacted to the dog barking by saying "hey!" and walked over to a bench. The receptionist asked for the "patient name?" and I said "just a minute" because my cat had thrown up and I needed to replace the padding in her carrier. That's right, I was "rude" because I did not immediately respond. Even if a customer is wrong, this was way out of line. You ask the customer what they think the problem is, validate their feelings, and then explain why they're wrong if necessary. Totally unprofessional."

"DO NOT GO TO Paws and Claws. It is the worst Veterinarians office I have been to. Here are the reasons why. My dog ended up in the emergency hospital due to a large lump on this jaw. The Emergency Vet diagnosed him with an abscessed tooth. Took my dog in to this place for a follow up on his abscess and I believe the Vets name is June. Well she tells me it's a tumor and he will have to have part of his lower jaw removed and to get him to a specialist asap. I was sick for a week thinking the other Vet had misdiagnosed him. Finally got him in to a specialist and after $1,400 I find out it's an abscessed tooth, just as the competent vet had stated. I can see by the reviews these people have a pattern for misdiagnosed medical issues. The next visit I took him in for a nail trim and was quoted $20 to $25 if he needs to be held down. They charged me $35.00 and he didn't fight. Kerry the office manager will not refund me my $15.00 as she says it's the vet tech fee. Well what the hell was the $20 for? To rent your clippers for 5 minutes? Kerry is the one who overcharged me so watch out for that one. I only pay $20.00 at my new vets, Mandalay Animal Hospital. No tech fee. I highly recommend them. Colorado Dog Academy charges $15.00. Kerry and June are incompetent and unethical. I wonder what else they overcharged me for."

"I came in with a half ripped dew claw and needed to get it clipped fast and without pain to my dog. The office was able to squeeze us in due to a cancellation, even with a minimum staff on hand. Sean reassured me in their process and his experience. He was very professional, knowledgeable, and highly skilled in his ability to care for animals. The services were highly affordable and exceeds the standard. I highly recommend this veterinary office for your pet."
