Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine

Last spring my 4-year-old dog couldn't walk because she had an accident when running when she tripped on a stick and her feet went behind her and she herniated a few discs in her spine. I brought her to Cornell and we were told that she had a 80% chance of walking again but that she would never run again. Surgery went as expected and I picked up Allie as expected as well. Everyone was so nice and informative. They sent me home with physical therapy to do with her over the course of the next month or two. They were wrong on her chances of walking and running again. Which is a huge huge blessing and not anything we are unhappy about! She not only can walk but she can run just as fast as she used to. Honestly you wouldn't even know she had back surgery a year ago. I am so happy with her progress and the care that we were given at cornell. Nothing but great things to say! Thank you from the bottom of my heart, you're not only save my dog's life, but you saved her from paralysis! 😍😍😍

I’m so thankful that I found this emergency vet. 2 er trips over the weekend. While everyone’s pets emergencies are different and pricing can vary, I think they are very fair. The first er I took my dog to wanted double for the testing of what I paid here for everything they did. I left the first place feeling terrible because I didn’t have enough for testing. No one expects to have this happen to them, I’m just glad that they were here to help. I think my dog received excellent care here, and would go back in the event I ever needed to. He had some Gi issues and pain in his abdomen.

Cornell Internal Medicine has truly changed our life. Every time we visited we felt so welcomed and listened to. Even today, in the midst of the busiest I have ever seen the lobby and during the holiday season when everyone is so busy, Megan went above and beyond to make Denver feel welcomed and was so kind to us. Thank you so much to everyone who has cared for Denver

We can’t say enough good things about Dr. Lawyer and her assistant Simone! They have extraordinary communication during the entire process. We brought Tyson in for an MRI due to pain and limping and he was diagnosed with IVDD and had him in for surgery the next day. Tyson is only 3 years old and came in feeling extremely unwell and left just like the puppy we remember him like! We are so grateful both of my kids cried before even exiting the front doors with him they were so happy to have him be back with us. Thank you Cornell University for everything!

My 2 year old German wirehaired pointer presented for intermittent lameness to Cornell after radiographs and rest/pain meds yielded no results. The sports medicine department with Dr.Frye, Dr.Alison, and technicians Angel and Olivia did everything they could to get Griffin and I an answer which they concluded to be triceps tendonopathy. With a lot of rest and underwater treadmill and the help of the sports med team, after months on end of rest and short leash walks, Griffin is doing very well now. Without their dedication to his well being and persistency to determine the problem and formulate a treatment plan, Griffin would most likely not be very far in his recovery. I can’t thank the sports medicine team enough for their help. I would recommend them to anyone I know.
