Meet Dr. Lindsey Ganzer
After more than 12 years in emergency veterinary medicine across Colorado and beyond, Dr. Lindsey Ganzer founded North Springs Veterinary Referral Center in 2022 with a clear vision: to build a practice rooted in empathy, collaboration, and clinical excellence. Her goal was to create a space that supports not only pets and their families, but also the veterinary professionals who care for them.
