Our sweet Lily was at the end of her life. We were lucky to call here and they got us in to their "comfort room". Everyone made this much easier for us to say goodbye!! The staff and vet was wonderful!!

Dr. Heidi Servi and technician Ashley recently saw my senior dog for a rehab consult. She was thorough and treated him wonderfully. I’ll be continuing with her for management of his old man pain. Highly recommend!

Dr. Sieberg, Rachel H, Dawn, Ashley G, and so many more techs were absolutely amazing when I had to put my beloved kitty down. Not only were they reassuring and walked me and my boyfriend through everything but they were so supportive. I have never experienced such amazing staff and have nothing but good things to say about the care they have given my kitty the past year.❤️❤️

My 2020 Review:

We came to Animal Care Center of Castle Pines After Murphy was diagnosed with a lung tumor. We did not want to put him through chemotherapy as the two drugs that were recommended have horrible side effects. Murphy was given 1-3 months to live. We wanted him to have the highest quality of life for the time remaining. Our hope was to stay ahead of the decline curve and to try and keep him comfortable for as long as possible. Although it was a difficult pill to swallow, we were prepared to lose him.
On our first visit, we met with Dr. Gibson and shared our expectations. We had already shared Murphy’s records to make her aware of his situation. A diet change from kibbles to raw was highly recommended. Murphy was prescribed some Chinese herbs, essential oils, turmeric powder (an antinflammitory), and immune system support powders. Only two very affordable medications were prescribed.
We had a lengthy discussion about the use of the Sanawave machine. I was already a little familiar with the machine. It's a pulsed electromagnetic field device that uses hyperthermia to treat cancer. We also decided to give Murphy a few injections of iron nanoparticles to make the SanaWave therapy more effective. There are very few machines in use in the US. We felt very fortunate that one of them was in use at Animal Care Center of Castle Pines. The Sanawave does the following:

1) strips away the protein layer on tumors
2) energizes the immune system by helping cells create heat shock proteins (HSP)
3) organizes water in the body to remove dead cancer cells
4) reduces inflammation

This is truly an amazing machine. We have been going for treatments since the end of February, 2020. After each six weeks of treatment, a cancer panel was run to check the progress of the treatments (a baseline test was run after our first visit). After the six weeks of treatments, the cancer panel showed a drop in the cancer marker and a huge drop in inflammation. We have seen a continued drop in the cancer index with six week period of the Sanawave treatments. As of July 24, 2020, Murphy is considered cancer free! No one has ever done this before, so we feel very fortunate to have Murphy under Dr. Gibson’s care.
At this point, we feel Murphy is out of the woods so to speak and that we can shift to a maintenance mode. Murphy will need to be treated for life. The hope is to have one to two treatments per month.
Dr. Gibson has been an absolute delight to work with. She has a cheerful disposition and is very compassionate. She is one of the brightest and most amazing vets that we have worked with. We’ve done a lot of testing on Murphy and each time we ask questions, she has answers and explains them in a way that is easily understood.

2023 Update:

My boy is living a vibrant life thanks to the wonderful care from Dr. Gibson and the staff at ACC. Three years on and Murphy is doing exceptionally well, especially for a 17 year old! I am so grateful to Dr. Gibson and all of the staff at ACC.

These folks work tirelessly to provide the needed care to our best friends. When I think about all that I have been through with Murphy, I get tears in my eyes.

Thank you Dr. Gibson and all of the amazing staff at ACC. You all are truly a blessing

From routine care, to illness or injury, to specialty care, this clinic is absolutely wonderful!

Same day appointments are available for urgent matters and waits aren’t long for routine care.

Treatment and testing options are also up to date and thoughtful of the animals wellbeing.

The vets are well versed in behavior and take their time with nervous animals.

Their prices are very fair for what they offer as well.

I am so happy with this clinic!

Phenomenal care ! We were referred to this clinic and couldn’t be happier with our experience. They were professional, compassionate and transparent regarding our dog’s treatment plan and care. The care was also very reasonably priced for our visit. Highly recommend !

Staff is knowledgeable and works well with our dog. Our dog has shown great improvement after completing the physical therapy and seems to be back to his own self again.

I am always grateful for the staff at Animal Care Center. They are kind and helpful getting my stubborn “little” 65 pound 9 month old Great Pyrenees tripawd pup into the exam room. They love on him and eats up the attention. And their expertise is beyond what I could have ever hoped for. They are making our boy’s life happy.
