Our goal is to maintain your pet's oral health and prevent systemic complications from dental disease.
Surgical Procedures
We offer surgical interventions ranging from routine spaying/neutering to complex soft-tissue and orthopedic procedures. Our surgical team includes board-certified specialists who employ minimally invasive techniques when appropriate. All patients receive pre-operative assessments and post-operative care plans tailored to their specific needs.

Report
I put in a legitimate complaint about my dog's care/vet and they dropped him as a patient. Completely ignored my complaint then told me that their vet is "very talented" and if I didn't like the care, they'd be happy to transfer my pets records elsewhere. Been going here for 4 years, so disappointed.

Be aware that the deposit they ask for when scheduling over the phone is non-refundable under any circumstances. I had scheduled an appointment for my dog to be checked for some issues he was having and got an appointment about a week and a half out. I was able to get him seen elsewhere sooner as I was wanting to get him help ASAP, but when I called to cancel his appointment 5 days before the scheduled appointment they informed me the appointment deposit will not be refunded even with advance cancellation notice and no services rendered.

I can't speak highly enough of High Plains. I wish I had found them sooner. They've been absolutely amazing to my two senior dogs who've now crossed the rainbow bridge. If (ok, when) I rescue more dogs, I will most definitely be returning here. Dr. Bizzul is absolutely wonderful. Thank you so much for all you did for my Lulu and Lucy and the kindness, compassion, and support you showed during the tough times we faced. It will most certainly not be forgotten.

We took our hound mix for his anual check-up and shots. Dr Dart and the other staff were very good with our dog, but also diligent. A very positive experience

Report
Treated my wife and kitten very poorly, and made my wife freak out after the surgery when she called concerned about a large lump on our kittens back. They said " O that doesn't sound right, bring her back in" mind you this is the second time in the same day after being spayed we had to bring her back to the vet just to be told it's a clot of blood stuck to her fur. Very discouraging to hear being these people are supposed to be professionals. I would assume as patients they look them over like any medical personnel would with their patients and make sure they are in good shape to go home.
