Amigo took her as step-down the next day to continue the IV therapy and monitor her off oxygen. The staff did a great job and was very responsive and available for updates directly with Dr. RiveroJoseph H.Joseph H. ★★★★★ Had an interesting morning at Amigo Animal Clinic. When I took Maude's carrier out of the car the "angel" had opened it and took off. I stuck my head in the door and told them we might be a bit late since she had taken off and immediately the staff ran out to help. They also called the businesses close by and while i was hobbling around (got my cardio!) they were also looking. The vet and a tech finally found her under a car and the little snot ran right to them. She got 2 richly deserved shots and we are back home. I just want to thank the staff at Amigo for their help and caring today!Nancy E.Nancy E. ★★★★★ I’ve been coming to Amigo for a couple years no with my Dog, Thor. Recently Thor was hit by a car and broke his leg. I can’t say enough about how wonderful Dr. Carrica Dr. Gitchell, Dr. Johnston, and the amazing team of Vet techs have been. From the immediate event, getting referral for surgery, and aftercare the Amigo team not only provided exceptional care but they convey warmth and clearly make decisions as if it were their own pets seeking medical attention.Joshua G.Joshua G. ★★★★★ I much appreciated the visit I had at the clinic with Dr. Rivero and the tech, Jamie today to discuss my Pomeranian with follow up medication. Dr. Rivero was so thorough in her examination of my pet and discussing her medication. It was so helpful to be able to get an appointment quickly while traveling on the road, even more so one that provided time for questions and answers as well as an exam. Thank you so much!Karen J.Karen J. ★★★★★ We are very grateful to have such a wonderful vet in Grand Junction. In the first year we lived here we unfortunately had two very sick animals - a kitten and a puppy. Amigo (specifically Dr. Garrett Carrica and Dr. Jackie Rivero, along with their wonderful staff) saved both of them. Our kitten could not maintain his body temperature or his blood glucose. Another vet said we were wasting money trying to save him but now he is a healthy happy cat. Our puppy got parvo from the breeder. It was devastating. But again Amigo saved her. We are eternally grateful to Amigo for saving our pets. Amigo communicated well and everyone was so kind and professional.Robert A.Robert A. ★★★★★ Grateful for Amigo Clinic, headed by Dr. Dominic Carrica, my dear Darla's favorite doctor, for attending to her with competence from her smallest to her biggest health issues. Visits to the clinic have soared the past year as Darla enters her sunset years. Special thanks to a few of the staff I have known since Darla's 1st visit following our move to the Valley: Sofia, Laura, Alex, Jamie, Esmeralda and everyone who have shown Darla the love ❤️, compassion and care she needs.

Our vet couldn't see him until 5 days later. Called around and they were able to see him the same day. Really kind staff and took good care of our dog. They accommodated my needs to have him be not around other dogs as he is a little picky with others. He had to be put under because his ears were hurting so bad they couldn't get a good look. They even carried my 88lb groggy boy out to my car and carefully put him in!Alyssa T.Alyssa T. ★★★★★ Great place. Great to work with all the staffB.J. S.B.J. S. ★★★★★ Nothing but great things to say about Amigo Animal Clinic. Highly recommend.Audra D.Audra D. ★★★★★ This place took amazing emergency care of our family’s mini-Bernie doodle after a 40ft+ fall.

Dr Rivera gets an A+.John H.John H. ★★★★★ Staff was friendly, welcoming and the vet tech was knowledgeable.Zandi S.Zandi S. ★★★★★ Everyone is wonderful here!Bunny F.Bunny F. ★★★★★ Amigo is one of the best animal clinics in town in my opinion. We had two Saint Bernards which spent a lot of time at Amigo for one reason or another. They got to know all of the vets, vet techs, and front desk staff. All of which have been great for the 12+ years we have been going there. Everyone there is always great to work with and they always took the time to answer all of our questions and make us feel heard. Dr. Garret became our dogs primary vet and he was always great with them and us. Even during the incredibly hard times in which we had to make the difficult choice that it was time to put our dog down, everyone at Amigo was incredibly supportive. Both of our dogs loved the vet and it always felt like Amigo loved Burley and Nana equally as much.Ross B.Ross B. ★★★★★ Professional. Entire staff us knowledgeable and genuinely interested in all animals. Always make room for urgent cases and cost is responsible!George F.George F. ★★★★★ I was able to get my German Shepherd see on a Saturday an hour and a half after I called. The staff is very friendly, and it's clear they really love what they do. I was pretty much their last patient on Saturday and there was no sense of urgency to rush me through. They really took their time. If I could leave a six-star review I would. I am contemplating changing my primary vet to them after this really positive experience.DanDan ★★★★★ Amigo is the best bet in town! They care for our animals and do an excellent job!Kimberly S.Kimberly S. ★★★★★ Great facilities caring doctors and techs.Crystal N.Crystal N. ★★★★★ They got my dog in the day I called this was my first time here very friendly staff very clean facilities and most of all no smell!

When we could no longer drive, Dr. Carrica started coming to the house. Great veterinarian!Dralus D.Dralus D. ★★★★★ Been going here for a while now. Haven't had a bad experience yet. They take good care of my dog and keep him healthy. Thank you AmigoBrice C.Brice C. ★★★★★ We have been using Amigo for nearly a decade, and they have been a great vet service for our pets. I feel like the staff really cares about their clients and gets to know the animals well. We purchase the senior health plans and feel like they are a good deal, especially since we visit the vet often and get annual dentals done. I also love how I can orders my dog's meds via their online pharmacy--it is super easy and convenient. We recently had to make the difficult decision to euthanize our elderly dog due to health issues, and Amigo staff came and did it in the most caring and compassionate way possible. I highly recommend their services!Megan R.Megan R. ★★★★★ So far, we have brought only our cats to amigos, both for routine visits and emergency visits. They have always been upfront about pricing and, very matter of fact about the condition of the cats health. They take care credit which has been so helpful for the more costly emergencies. We also have an unfriendly cat to anyone outside of our family who they sedate to work on but they handle him really well. The staff has been friendly and talkative every time I've encountered them.cassi M.cassi M. ★★★★☆ First time visit just to find out how pleasant they were and how expensive treatment will be .Tony M.Tony M.js_loader

It was perfect service. My dog Rocky is 15 and Dr. Bridge made sure I knew all the information about the different treatments that could be done for my boy. He ended up having a partial paw amputation due to cancer, but he is back to his highly energetic and playful 15-year-old self.

Dr. Carrica is amazing, he would call me back at 8:30pm with questions I had, he is so generous with his compassion and his time he is giving my family.

Any time I call, no matter what day, what time, there is always someone available to talk to me, they treat my concerns as very very important.
