Colorado State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital

I’ve taken both my (mother’s) dog and my pet snake to CSU vet. They are kind, compassionate, and thorough. They educated me on proper husbandry without judgement and demonstrated how to give my snake antibiotic shots. My snake is happy and thriving in her new habitat. She’s alive and well thanks to CSU vet. I wish I could personally thank the doctors that helped us… she has a new lease on life.

My experience with CSU Veterinary Hospital has been mixed. On the one hand, the team is clearly knowledgeable and handles a large volume of complex cases. That level of expertise is reassuring when your pet has serious medical needs. However, the biggest challenge is the lack of continuity because you do not have a consistent veterinarian or student working with you, which can make communication difficult. My dachshund was recently seen for a swallow study and was diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis, among other conditions. The vet we saw that day, Dr. Rush, along with student Laura Mena, was absolutely outstanding. Dr. Rush was timely and thorough in her communication, calling to explain the results and following up with emails. Laura took the time to truly understand my dog’s symptoms and

The most wonderful experience we could have had in a scary time. Everyone was so wonderful and kind. We’ve been trying to figure out what was going on with our dog for several days.

The doctor was wonderful as well willing to come check in with us himself and very personable. Everyone was so helpful to our sw

We have been treating our two Samoyed’s dry eyes for the last year with another eye specialist, with no great results. The expertise, care and knowledge from the CSU Vet students Robin and Eric, the resident Vet, Dr Angela and faculty Dr. Kathryn was spectacular! We have seen great improvements in our dogs with one visit! We have Hope are so grateful for the team at CSU! ❤️💙🐾🐾

We had to take our sweet girl dog in to be euthanized around 10 pm. I had called a bit earlier to see if they did euthanization and they were extremely helpful and sympathetic on the phone. She had been in end stage liver failure for about a month and tanked that evening. When my husband carried her in (a st Bernard mix) they took her right away due to the condition she was in. Tomi Belczik was our Dr. We saw only one other pet parent there consulting with him in another room as we were headed to the "comfort room" and as we were leaving without our sweet girl we had brought in I saw this woman in EXTREME distress. I didn't realize it then in my own grief but Dr Tomi must have had a very difficult night in his own job. But he still handled us with the utmost compassion and composure,
