Preventive care

I’ve taken my animals to Colonial since before it was Colonial. The location has caring staff and Dr. Martin is a great veterinarian. He is a mentor for his staff and a wonderful doctor. The office staff are friendly and receptive. The nurses are experienced and trustworthy. I have a dog who is very hard to handle but Judith can manage him easily. The groomer Nicole is top notch. The office is clean. This office used to be owned by Dr. Burton, a truly caring and compassionate man. When the new owners came they took over the care of my animals and have been there for us in spite of some of our pets being “special needs”. I would recommend this office to anyone. I have never been without a dog in my life and Colonial understands how important my pets are too me. I am grateful for all of the folks at Colonial!

I've had dogs my entire life and had some average vets along the way, but this is by far the most inconsiderate vet office I've ever been to. The assistants are nice enough but that's about it. I took my dog in for a Bordetella booster this morning, that's it. But after 35 minutes of waiting and no vet, I walked out. Every visit to this veterinary office was a minimum of a 30 minute wait, after my appointment time, to see the vet. Usually closer to 40 or 45 minutes. I also noticed the office was particularly stinky(pet waste) this morning. Time is money. If you've got lots of spare time and don't mind waiting in a room for long periods of time, this may be the place for you but if you value your time, look elsewhere.

Hands down the most caring practice in the area. The staff is always friendly, attentive and caring with not just our pets but with us as well. If ever there is a need for a procedure, the details are fully explained as well as the costs beforehand. We love Colonial - both Gateway and Woolbright locations.

Dr. Fellacher and her staff are always thorough when taking care of Cleo's needs. They also understand her fears and take great care in keeping her calm while being examined. I give them a 4.5. I took 1/2 pt. away because they are more expensive than my previous vet in Denver.
