Our History
We were founded in 1955 as a one-person general practice. Wheat Ridge Animal Hospital merged with Denver Veterinary Specialists in 1994 to combine the general practice and specialty referral practice. In 2016, Wheat Ridge Animal Hospital, along with three other veterinary groups, joined to form Ethos Veterinary Health. In 2017 we built a brand new hospital.
Wheat Ridge Animal Hospital has held accreditation with the American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) since 1963 for general practice and became one of the first hospitals in the U.S. to be accredited through the AAHA Referral Standards in 2008. Wheat Ridge Animal Hospital is now a Member of Veritas Veterinary Partners.
