Overview

VRCC Veterinary Specialty & Emergency Hospital is a full-service specialty pet hospital offering comprehensive medical services for cats and dogs. From 24/7 emergency care to specialty veterinary services, we are a trusted source of veterinary care for clients in Englewood and the Denver Metro area

VRCC was founded in 1991 by board-certified veterinarians specializing in Emergency Care, Surgery, and Internal Medicine. We started as a small specialty center, and all clients were referred to us by general practice veterinarians (similar to a primary care provider in human medicine) for pets who needed specialized care. In 1992, VRCC moved into a larger facility as we attained a full spectrum of veterinary specialists. We began seeing patients from both a referral basis from general practice veterinarians, as well as directly from clients in need of specialty veterinary care for their pet. VRCC is now an 18,800 square foot multi-disciplinary veterinary hospital that has been at its current location in Englewood, Colorado since 1999. We offer 24/7 emergency care and a variety of specialty veterinary services for pets in the Denver Metro area

Mission — We're on a mission to provide state-of-the-art veterinary care with compassion and exceptional service to both our clients and referring veterinarians. We are proud to be a go-to resource for pet owners and veterinarians in Colorado by offering advanced-level services and procedures not commonly found in family practice

What reviewers say

79% Positive sentiment
based on 1,532 reviews

The facility provides comprehensive emergency and specialty veterinary care, featuring dedicated departments for cardiology, oncology, internal medicine, and surgery. Highly skilled veterinary specialists and technicians are widely recognized for their clinical expertise, thorough explanations, and deeply compassionate support during critical medical crises and end-of-life decisions. While the standard of medical care and emergency response is frequently praised as life-saving, services come at a significantly high cost, and patients occasionally encounter extended wait times and communication friction with administrative staff.
