My dog had TPLO surgery here in December. Dr. Iodence and the whole team there are top notch! The facilities are clean and consult rooms are very dog friendly (a mat, toys, doggy videos playing on-screen). The distractions helped my dog feel a little less anxious than she does at vet visits :) Dr. Iodence was informative about what to expect with the surgery and recovery, and the discharge instructions were very thorough. My dog just had her 8-week follow up exam and X-rays and has healed up perfectly! Thank you to CCOR for taking such good care of my fur baby and getting her back to living her best life!

Everyone is so kind, the front desk, the assistants and the doctors! Dr. Dent has a very calming presence which I deeply appreciate as we navigate my dogs needs and his surgery. I’ve taken my dog Scooby there for both his hind leg TPLO surgeries and they’ve done an incredible job with him. He’s a nervous dog and they have special protocols which I appreciate. They take the time to explain everything and answer all my questions. I also love that Dr. Dent calls to follow up after, it really shows how much they care!

We were referred to them by the VCA Briargate facility, to help evaluate out dogs knee issue. Everyone was very nice, and helpful.  We very much appreciate being given options for our dogs treatment and signs of things to look for as he gets older instead of trying to push for a surgery.

Our 6 year-old male West Highland white terrier had TPLO surgery on his rear right leg in July 2025. We are SO THANKFUL FOR THE COMPASSION AND CARE provided by the staff at Colorado Canine Orthopedics. Surgeon Scot Swainson was extremely thorough, understanding, patient and compassionate (as was staff member Katie) throughout our visits leading up to our decision to move forward with this procedure. We had tragically lost our baby’s half-sister when she was 4 following a “routine” procedure at our local veterinarian’s office a couple of years prior so we were extremely apprehensive and nervous about general anesthesia. Both Dr. Swainson and Katie (a truly empathetic counselor for nervous pet parents!) put our minds at ease by telling us about and providing the option for a board-certified anesthesiologist from Peak Veterinary Anesthesia Services during our precious boy’s surgery. Everything went smoothly during the surgery and the post op follow-up communication has been nothing short of superb. Whenever we had any questions about the post op recovery process, medications, etc. Katie and other staff members spent whatever time we needed on the phone answering ALL of our questions and concerns.

February 2026 was the 2nd TPLO/MCL/ACL surgery for our precious boy Sir Dominic! As before Sir Dominic and his parents were treated with EXCEPTIONAL COMPASSION & CARE!!! From the moment we were checked in on the morning of surgery by front desk caregiver Erin, to the timely follow-up from AJ, Veronica, Katie, Dr. Swainson & Kim (PEAK), we were always assured & comforted that Sir Dominic's progress was always being monitored with love and extreme professionalism and skill. COLORADO CANINE ORTHOPEDICS IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST OVERALL VETERINARY/SPECIALTY hospital/caregiver we've ever experienced!!!

This practice was excellent. We brought our 20lb dog here for his torn CCL. Everyone was so kind and on top of everything (I heard them talking with fluency about a few patients without needing to refer to charts). The surgeon (we saw Dr. Dent) gave us a great sense of what to expect, and met with us on discharge to give us a run down on how everything went. They provided very clear post-op instructions and made sure we had everything we needed for our little dude.

We came from out of state at the recommendation of our local vet (some of their staff had had good experiences with Colorado Canine Ortho). They were very accommodating to that, reaching out ahead of time about anything that might preclude surgery so we could be sure we would be good to go given the drive, and doing a fast turnaround on a prescription for extra pain meds we requested so that it didn’t delay our drive back.

Overall, they made a very stressful experience very smooth, and were worth the 10+ hours of driving, which is saying something!
