Customers near Highlands & West Denver
Our lab stopped eating on a Tuesday and I fully expected to be told the next opening was in ten days. They saw him that morning, ran bloodwork while we waited, and had an answer before lunch. Dr. Nwosu called the next day to check on him. That call is why we stay.
Washington Park · Same-day urgent care
Our 13-year-old cat needed a dental and two other clinics had refused on her age. Willow Creek ran the bloodwork, explained the protocol, and did it. Four extractions. She's eating like a kitten again and I honestly regret waiting two years.
Cherry Creek · Dental care
Thirty-minute appointments are not a gimmick here — nobody has ever rushed us. They go through what each vaccine is actually for and why our indoor cat doesn't need all of them. First vet I've had that talks me out of things.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Are you taking new clients?
Yes, we are. New client appointments are usually available within a week, and we will ask your previous clinic for records so you do not have to chase them.
What are your prices?
A comprehensive wellness exam is $68 and a same-day sick visit is $95. Everything beyond the exam is estimated in writing and agreed with you before it happens. We would rather tell you the number than surprise you with it.
Do you take pet insurance?
We work with every major insurer. Payment is taken at the time of the visit and we submit the claim paperwork for you the same day, which is usually the part people find fiddly.
What if my pet is anxious at the vet?
Tell us when you book and we will schedule a longer, quieter slot, often first thing. We are a Fear Free certified practice — no forced restraint, and pre-visit anxiety medication where it helps. Some patients take two or three visits before we do anything at all, and that is fine.
Do you see exotics?
Rabbits, guinea pigs and ferrets, yes. For birds and reptiles we refer to a colleague in Lakewood who does it better than we would, and we will make the introduction.
What happens after hours?
Our phone message names the two emergency hospitals we trust and gives directions to both. We are sent their records the next morning and will call you to pick up the follow-up.
