We are no longer a full service veterinary clinic. We are still in Cortez, Colorado, but have reduced our services as I approach retirement. We are still doing spays/neuters of cats and smaller dogs, some simple dentals, and vaccinations along with some other services that occur on a day to day basis at a reasonable cost. I am no longer doing diagnostics or taking on ongoing cases.
As I near retirement, I have decided to reduce my hours to 3 days a week, so most of my appointments are done on M, T and Th. I am no longer doing any large animal care, but focusing more on dogs and cats. I am wanting to enjoy my horses more, so riding and camping is becoming a bigger part of my life. That means more trips and time away from practice.

EMERGENCY CARE
I am less available as I approach full retirement, and am seldom available for after hours calls, except Home Euthanasias. My voicemail message does state when I am out of town. However I do not sit by the phone waiting for someone to call as days may go by without a call. I hike, walk my dogs and ride my horses as often as I can and I doing more trips. Your Emergency is important and I will be paged immediately upon leaving a message. If you do not get a return call with in a time frame acceptable to you, please utilize other resources.
