What recent reviews say

Most visits land positive: owners note the staff genuinely cares, vets spend time answering questions, and follow-up texts feel personal. But a subset encountered serious lapses: one dog's lung tumor was missed despite years of care, another's dental bloodwork attempt left her distressed and soaked in alcohol after four tries, and a third ACL tear went undiagnosed. Pricing varies wildly depending on what staff recommend, frustrating owners used to straightforward costs.

The clinic shines with dogs that need calm, steady attention (anxious pets, chronic conditions, surgery recovery). Their wellness plans and affordability draw repeat customers. The team includes Dr. Cheng, Dr. Liu, Dr. Hart, and others who reviewers describe as kind and unhurried. But thoroughness is inconsistent: some catch serious issues early, others miss large tumors or misread pathology reports on the spot.

Best for: Owners of anxious pets, dogs needing chronic condition management, or those prioritizing personal attention over speed.
Think twice if: Diagnostic thoroughness is uneven; get a second opinion if initial findings seem incomplete. Confirm pricing and recommendations in writing before procedures.

  • Handwritten condolence letters sent to clients after pet loss
  • Text reminders day after appointments
  • Wellness plan option available
  • Three surgeries on one dog with no complications over 6-7 years
  • Transitioned from All About Paws (Evans Ave location) to WellHaven

What reviews say by service

General & Wellness Veterinary Care
Mixed: thorough preventive care and chronic disease management praised, but some owners report incomplete exams missing serious conditions.
Veterinary Dentistry
One poor experience with bloodwork causing distress; other reviews mention teeth cleanings without complaint.
Veterinary Surgery
Strong praise for multi-year surgical outcomes and no complications; one owner reported ACL tear missed by clinic.
Emergency & Urgent Care
Limited direct evidence; one review mentions emergency ER referral (VEG), suggesting possible limits to in-house emergency depth.

Common questions

Do they follow up after appointments?
Yes, staff send a text message the day after your visit to check on your pet and answer any questions you have.
Are they more affordable than other Denver vets?
Several owners report switching from other clinics and finding WellHaven more affordable, and they offer a wellness plan option, though pricing varies by service.
What if my pet is anxious about vet visits?
Reviewers say the staff take time with nervous pets and make them feel welcome. One owner noted staff didn't offer sedation or gabapentin until after multiple failed attempts, so ask about calming options upfront.

Most people report a caring team that moves quickly through appointments and does genuine surgery and complex care. Five-star reviews praise weekend availability and follow-up calls, but recent one-star complaints about surprise $30-50 urgent fees, charges for fluids without consent, and one account of poor euthanasia technique raise real concerns about billing practices and consistency.

4.9(351)✓ VerifiedPublishes prices

Wellshire stands out for veterinarians who combine surgical expertise with genuine rapport. Dr. Monica Watterud and Dr. Molly Cominsky are named repeatedly for catching missed diagnoses, explaining treatment steps clearly, and handling fearful or aggressive dogs without drama. Staff treat new families like friends, not transactions, and the front desk handles anxious pet owners with patience and cost transparency. The clinic handles everything from puppies to senior care, spay-neuters to laparoscopic surgery. Exam rooms let cats decompress before appointments. Prices are described as reasonable for the caliber of care. Reviewers span three decades of loyalty and recent relocations alike, suggesting consistent quality that builds trust.
