What recent reviews say

Staff and vets here build deep, multi-year relationships with pet owners, offering fast answers through on-site lab and ultrasound work. Dr. Sarhangpour and Dr. Foltz appear frequently in praise for managing complex chronic conditions, senior care, and anxious pets with expertise and calm.

Cost runs high, and a handful of reviewers report misses on serious conditions (tumors, cancers) or frustration with weekly testing protocols instead of immediate surgery. One customer felt pressure to add services not requested. Still, the majority credit Legacy with correcting previous misdiagnoses and extending pets' lives through thoughtful, long-term care.

  • compassionate, patient staff
  • good with anxious and high-needs pets

Staff greet pets as individuals and adjust care to each animal's anxiety level; rooms include couches, toys, and treats designed to calm rather than stress. Dentistry, diagnostics, and urgent care are all handled with the same gentle approach; follow-up texts and post-visit check-ins are standard. The clinic's Fear Free certification is lived daily, not just marketing. Dr. Tan, Dr. Ashley, Dr. Sarah, Dr. Hilliard, Dr. Brandt, and techs like Emrys are named for patience and persistence. Owners report pets pulling them toward the clinic door and anxious cats who finally relax. One one-star review offers no specifics to ground complaint themes.

Most visits receive consistent praise for compassionate, knowledgeable staff who take time to listen and explain decisions clearly. However, cost concerns surface regularly, and two recent reviews allege unnecessary dental procedures were recommended, prompting second opinions that contradicted the diagnosis.

Reviewers consistently praise Dr. Todd Smith and the team for genuine kindness and skill. Vets get down on the floor with pets, explain diagnoses clearly, and never rush through appointments, even during end-of-life care. The clinic earns trust by offering same-day slots, showing honest pricing upfront, and suggesting only necessary treatments. Located in Scenic Heights and serving Arvada and surrounding areas, it has kept families coming back for years.
