The first day we went to thinking he had worms, right away we came in and they took samples. Turned out it was a false alarm. This time we went to get his neutered procedure. I couldn't be happier with my choice. The staff kept me updated throughout all times and they made the procedure very simple, informative and helpful. I didn't feel any pressure or stress with anything. I felt very comfortable, confident and appreciated. Everyone has their own experiences and all I can say is from the amounts of times I've been there, these two recent events I can say nothing but great things. Do your research before you commit in any location. What fits me and my furry friend may not be for everyone. I am sharing this because I do see many share negative opinions and I want to share with everyone my point of view and hopes that many furry friends can join the community.

My daughter was there yesterday with her 8 year old dog who has suffered chronic ear infections and…read moreas of late, he's been extra itchy. While exploring her financial options to get his treatment, she overheard the vet techs saying "the dog and the owner are both a disaster." Obviously she was there to seek treatment for the dog (who turns out had fleas.) In this economy not everyone can afford expensive or immediate care- our dog's issues are not life threatening- so to call anyone looking for help a "disaster" is demeaning, degrading and downright wrong. She shared what she heard with the vet when she came back in, only to be told that the vet would address it. She also overheard a conversation with the techs stating that another person brought in a old cat and that the owner should "just give it up already." Needless to say, that will be our final visit. Your office walls are thin. People are there for help because they love their pets. Do better Elmhurst Animal Care Center.

This location was fully remodeled a few years ago and it is so nice. It feels like it's a large house! It's very clean and there are even mini partitions to keep your dogs separate from each other in the lobby. We trust this vet, and after moving away from Lombard, we had such a bad vet experience somewhere else that we feel that this is the best vet in the area and will continue on coming here, even if it comes with more of a drive for us.

She has a history of severe arthritis and we wanted to see what we can do to make her comfortable and prolong her quality of life. She is on medication for this but we wanted to see what else we could do. For the moment we got there we were greeted by an assistant and then by Dr. Anders. We did not have to wait at all. We felt very welcome. Dr. Anders was so amazing with Roxy. Roxy can be really shy and become grumbly,but with Dr. Anders she was not shy at all. She warmed up to her fairly quickly. You can tell Dr.Andres loves what she does by the way she treats us and Roxy. She was so patient with Roxy throughout the whole process. She was also able to do a thorough exam with without pushing Roxy and make her apprehensive. With this consultation, we learned a lot of information about Roxy's such as her favoring one leg over the other, indicating a potential imbalance or discomfort. At the end of it all we were able to set up some sessions for therapy for Roxy. And we got information on some at home therapy we can do. Im so glad we have another way to help Roxy! I'm excited to see what the next month brings. I'm even more happy know that Roxy we treat with the utmost care at this visit!! Thank you!!

Our kitten was seen by Dr. Torok for luxating patellas in both hind legs. She seemed very…read moreknowledgeable and I had read prior (glowing) reviews for the practice, including some that mentioned pets being seen for similar issues with patellar luxation. We have since learned that the surgery should not have been performed for a variety of reasons and will not return to this practice. Note that this review is centered around cat treatment; hopefully the practice is more knowledgeable and compassionate to other animals, but the multiple issues we ran into should give anyone pause before bringing their pet here. When first visiting, Dr. Torok examined our kitten who had grade IV luxating patellas, the most severe grade. She let us know we would need to do surgery at 11-12 months old, when our cat was fully grown, to fully correct her knees. She also firmly expressed that in order to ensure the most successful surgery and avoid any complications, we should do a preliminary surgery ASAP to try and relieve some of the tension in her legs due to the severity of her luxation. If not, it would get "harder and harder and harder" to perform the final surgery at ~1 year old. We scheduled and had surgery performed that week as, at the time, we believed that it was the correct thing to do. Two weeks post-surgery, we had bandages removed because of swelling in our cat's foot, during which she was screaming the entirety of the time. Dr. Torok and team confirmed she had a wound on her toe. They proceeded to affirm that she was not screaming because of pain and we shouldn't be concerned, administered an antibiotic for the toe, and re-bandaged it. The following day, I called the practice as our cat had seemed very uncomfortable. Whenever she moved, she would scream/cry, and she had trouble getting comfortable enough to sleep even with pain-relievers and a sedative. Honestly, I wasn't sure if this was typical post-surgery/bandage removal. The tech said she spoke with Dr. Torok and, "Dr. Torok said she shouldn't be too uncomfortable". No mentions of increasing her gabapentin, or even acknowledgement that she could be in pain. We later took her to an ER where they confirmed she was very, very painful even after several pain-relieving meds and sedation. This is what caused alarm bells to start going off for us - this practice, which claims to be "fear-free", did not trust us nor our animal when showing signs that she was in extreme pain. We decided to transfer her care to MedVet and met with a surgeon that week to confirm we were following appropriate aftercare so our cat would recover well from surgery and get back to living her life as a kitten. They delivered the jarring news that this surgery should not have been done on a cat so young, should never be done on both legs at the same time, and she should not have been bandaged from the waist down to her toes. We now have to go to physical therapy for the next several weeks to help our cat regain her range of motion, care for her injured toes from the bandages, and then follow through with corrective surgery when she is one year old. Both us and our cat are incredibly distraught. I wish Dr. Torok had realized that this surgery was out of her depth and referred us to an orthopedic specialist as opposed to rushing us to do a surgery that, ultimately, may end up hurting our poor cat (beyond the pain that she is already experiencing). We relayed feedback regarding this surgery and our experience to the practice, and they did end up issuing a partial credit to us, but unfortunately no monetary value can be assigned to the distress we have experienced. As a final note to anyone that this makes a difference to, I learned after our visits that they perform declaws. I'm not sure the extent to which these are performed, but hopefully someone from the practice can comment so others are informed prior to choosing this as their practice.
