It’s every pet owner’s worst nightmare: coming home to find your pup had explosive bloody diarrhea. I immediately googled the closest ER (as this was our first need for one) and SRAES popped up: only 5 minutes away. I didn’t even call; I just headed their direction in hopes they could help. I entered a facility that was immaculate, with a calm receptionist to check us in....

Our vet was very kind, thorough, and treated our dog with compassion. This is an emergency walk in clinic and we know that they do their best to see us in a timely manner. We’ve been here twice now with our dog and had good experiences both times.

This was our second cat who needed I-131 radiation treatment. This was entirely successful. Julie called us nearly every day with a status update on our cute little Gryffin. We highly recommend this facility and its services.

Our senior golden retriever was not doing well last weekend, so we brought him in to be checked. The staff were able to diagnose him with metastatic cancer in under an hour (after weeks of testing with our primary) and gave us options that met our puppy’s needs. They treated us with kindness and respect, and showed love to our boy in his last hours. We are sad he’s gone bu...

They were amazing, our dog snatched a chicken skewer and ate it whole. We brought him in right away and they did X-rays and then surgery to remove the stick. He stayed the night and we picked him up the next afternoon. Everyone was so nice and informative. I called all hours of the night and there was always somewhere there to answer the call. He is recovering at home and...

Went in early in the am with our dog who was very sick. She obviously ate something she should not have.. They ran tests and found a blockage in her stomach. It took all day but they cleared the blockage and she went home. They do a top notch job with emergencies., They know what they are doing and are highly professional. This is the vet to go to asap if your pet is in tr...

We’ve visited Southern Rockies ER twice now and have been more than satisfied each time. Being at the ER with your fur baby is stressful as it is, but the staff here does an excellent job being compassionate, informative, and attentive. They offer options to consider for treatment and really work with you to explain and understand the benefits and cost of each. This is...

I have unfortunately been here more times than I’d like to admit but this most recent experience was the best experience I could have had, given the circumstances. Dr. Murrane & Dr. Driscoll saved my cats life. He was attacked this morning & was in bad shape. They were in surgery with him for hours. Not only did they provide him wonder care but they kept me updated in the...
