Elk Park Animal Hospital

Dr. Don and team provide excellent care for our dog, Molly as they did for our late dog, Samantha, who died at 15 of natural causes. I like that Eastern and Western medicine are combined to provide individualized care. No matter how busy he is, Dr. Don takes the time to explain what he is doing and why he is doing it, I have never felt rushed or pressured to buy products. He is very caring, personable and intelligent. We feel lucky to have him in Pagosa!

Dr. Thompson and his staff are top notch! He has cared for our 4 Chesapeakes, 6 Llamas and our children's dogs and cats for the last 6 years. His professionalism, knowledge, skills and relationship with both us and our beloved animals has always been genuine and heartfelt. We cannot thank him enough for being our veterinary and great friend!

Dr Thompson, at Elk Park, has been our Vet for over 7 years since he came to Pagosa Springs. He not only knows his profession well but he also has great customer service skills and compassion. So many people choose him as their vet so he works long hours and all week to take care of existing and new customers that he can't turn away, because he cares about them and their pet. He saved our little "girl," who had liver enzymes 10x the highest they should be, with herbal meds. She's still with us 4 years later. We could go on more but that's a sample of the great vet we have and are so grateful.

THANK YOU DR. THOMPSON!! While traveling in our RV, our cat suffered some sort of injury to her eye. Without hesitation, Dr. Thompson met us on a Sunday to get her treated. We are not residents of Pagosa Springs, nor previous clients of Elk Park Animal Hospital but Dr. Thompson went out of his way to get us the help we needed. Although we don't live close, my husband and I hope to cross paths with Dr. Thompson again under better circumstances and take him to dinner! He's a fabulous veterinarian and even better person.

Dr. Thompson came and fixed my year old colt and shots for my 6 month old puppy in the same farm call. The idea that he was willing to do both of these and they made it work with my time was really great. This is the first horse of my own and going for the whole training journey. Dr. Thompson took this into account and walked me through the process and explained what was expected after (to me that was a cool addition to having him come). He and his vet tech were great with both my colt and me. Also, the vet office was able to make my schedule work even later in the day . I work a 7:30-3:30/4 job and it is hard to take off, so this was really appreciated! He is honest and transparent about bills and what he thinks is needed and what’s more optional. I really like this. Thank you, Dr. Thompson and the Elk park vet team!
