What Vettech does
Vettech LLC, operating as Robert's Anesthesia Repair, is a family-owned veterinary anesthesia equipment service and sales company founded around 1996 and headquartered near Denver, Colorado (Wheat Ridge/Golden). The firm specializes in the maintenance, repair, certification, and installation of anesthesia machines, vaporizers, and active scavenge systems for veterinary clinics, animal hospitals, research facilities, and large animal veterinary practices throughout the Rocky Mountain and Southwest regions. It operates a proprietary point inspection methodology for equipment evaluation and employs a Licensed Professional Engineer qualified to design and balance active scavenge (waste gas) systems, a capability the company highlights as a differentiator.
Vettech runs a dual service-plus-distribution business model. Service revenue derives from preventative maintenance, repair, certification, system design and installation, vaporizer exchange, and post-mortem/badge-test investigation, delivered primarily through field service technicians visiting customer sites on scheduled routes. Equipment revenue comes from sales of new and used anesthesia machines, vaporizers, active scavenge systems, replacement parts, breathing circuits, masks, and consumables such as soda lime and charcoal canisters. The company is an authorized distributor for all major veterinary anesthesia brands, including Supera, Midmark, Patterson Veterinary, Somni, JD Medical, Dispomed, Vetland, Vetamac, Summit Hill, A.M. Bickford, VetEquip, Hallowell, and Scivena Scientific, enabling better-than-MSRP pricing and objective brand recommendations.
The go-to-market is regional field sales supported by a showroom in Golden, CO, an inside-sales toll-free and text channel, video tech consultations, and a website with online chat. The company serves 1,200+ customers and reports multi-decade relationships with named accounts such as MaxFund Animal Adoption Center (20+ years) and Red Hill Animal Health Center (10+ years). With 1-10 employees and no disclosed revenue, funding, or M&A activity, Vettech operates as a bootstrapped regional micro-business focused on recurring service contracts and equipment sales to a fragmented SMB veterinary base.
