Great care! As I sit…read morehere petting and loving on my sweet dog Sandy following her surgery earlier this week, my grateful heart turns to Dr Miner and his staff for the exceptional care they continue to provide to my 4 pack of dogs over many years. This team is all you could Hope for in veterinary care. They are caring, friendly, compassionate, fair with pricing and options and very knowledgeable. I came on here to write a review but saw that I had previously posted a positive review for a prior visit too and I rarely write reviews!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart .

This is an extremely difficult review to write…read more My fur baby (17, beagle) HATES going to the vet. He's always hesitant to be touched and normally screams while there. Since he's a senior and then some dog, most vets get impatient due to how anxious/stressed and painful he can be. This was not the case at Warrenville Grove Animal Hospital. The service from the front desk staff, vet techs, Tracy, and vets was 5 stars (from my husband, myself, and our fur baby). We were treated with empathy, patience, and the highest level of care. Henry (fur baby) was as comfortable as he could be throughout and he did not scream once. Kim (vet tech) and Dr. Sarah Morlock were thorough, patient, and kind. They answered any and all questions and provided estimates $$ throughout the process. Unfortunately my baby did not improve and that is not for lack of compassion or care from the staff. My sweetheart went to rest here and we were shown empathy and care. We were able to make Henry feel as comfortable as possible - we brought his bed, blanket, and listened to music the entire time. We were given some of his fur and a paw print as a keepsake. I decided to have Hengers cremated and received him within a week. I truly am grateful for the entire staff at Warrenville Grove. I HATE the previous vet (VCA Schaumburg) my baby went to and am extremely grateful Warrenville Grove Animal hospital made my entire family feel loved and cared for, especially my Henry. Extra notes - they offer in house blood work with results. Results take about 20 minutes. Ultrasounds are offered here as well.

We've been going to Amber Leaf and seeing Dr. Jason for over three years. My fiancée and her family…read morehave been taking their pets there for much longer. We recently moved away from the area, but we continue to take our dog to Amber Leaf because everyone there--from the front desk staff to the vets and vet techs--are amazing. Our German Shepherd mix Brimley was diagnosed with epilepsy about a year before we had to put her down. Throughout her treatment, Dr. Jason always thoroughly answered our questions and helped us make informed decisions about our dog's care and quality of life. He coordinated with specialists and often offered advice over the phone without requiring us to come in for an office visit. When we had to take our girl in for a cluster of uncontrollable seizures, they let us stay in an exam room for pretty much an entire day while we comforted our anxious dog. They laid blankets out, dimmed the lights, and played calming music. The front desk staff went above and beyond staying by our dog's side when we had to leave for a short break. We honestly can't thank them enough. Everyone collectively helped make our dog's last hours peaceful and pain free. Amber Leaf has the most compassionate people and the first thing we did when we got our new puppy was schedule an exam with Dr. Jason. We hope we never have to find care anywhere else.

I honestly thought this was a pet food store as I passed by almost daily. This veterinarian…read morepractice uses a combination of eastern and western medicine to improve and maintain pet health. My regular vet referred me to them after my 7 year old rescue Lab/Coonhound was diagnosed with a malignant mast cell tumor. It was excised by my regular vet but she couldn't get clear margins due to location. It was either this approach or a veterinary oncologist. It was a five week wait for an appointment and you had to secure the date with a credit card deposit that was later applied to the bill as credit. TWP makes you feel calm & welcome from the start. I am familiar with eastern medicine so I didn't have a lot of questions but they answered all I did have completely. Dr. Tartof was professional, attentive, thorough and kind as well as was the vet tech. We came home with lots to read and look up as well as with supplements, a salve and a suggested new diet. The facility is clean, bright and cheerful with plenty of free parking in the lot. I hope this approach will allow our beloved dog to have much more quality time to enjoy life with us. If you are considering a new approach to your pet's healthcare I would highly recommend scheduling a consultation here.

Absolutely do not recommend this place. Dr. Tartof had been my dogs' chiropractor a few years ago…read morewhen she was working on her own. I had a question about a current issue, and contacted her to see if she had any input. She suggested we go to a specialty clinic to rule out certain things before going there for a consult. Specialty clinic solved my dog's issue and sent the summary to Dr. Tartof. I then received the message that if I wanted her input on supplements, to make an appointment for consultation. Wanting the best for my dog, I did that. I wish we had never gone. I learned nothing that I didn't already know. I was, however, told that I should start him on Saw Palmetto in addition to the Finasteride that our specialty clinic had prescribed to him not 3 weeks prior. When I asked if it made sense to start him on something before our recheck ultrasound at specialty clinic (scheduled for 2 months from now), she looked me straight in the eye and said yes, because the Finasteride might not be enough. Keeping in mind that whatever he is on, he will have to be on for the rest of his life (hoping for another 10 years!). l asked the pharmacist, specialty clinic, and researched online. EVERY article and every person I spoke with confirmed that it is NOT advisable to take both of these medications at the same time. Not for humans or for dogs. The meds work the exact same way, and can interact with each other, and also skew results. They can also cause dangerously low levels of DHT. It should have never been prescribed to us. Too, the Saw Palmetto they sold us could only be purchased from them, and would cost $76 every 44 days, and my having to drive 20 miles each way to get it. Compare that with the legitimate medication prescribed by specialty vet, costing us $10.99 for 60 days, pickup at our local pharmacy. I would LOVE to be proven wrong here, but the only conclusion I can come to is that my dog's health was put at risk due to this clinic trying to pad their pocketbooks. We spent over $800 on things I really didn't feel were necessary for a healthy dog. I try and give benefit of the doubt. Thankfully I did my research before giving the Saw Palmetto to my dog. I told Dr. Tartof I didn't think it made sense for him to take this, and would like to return it. She advised me to definitely hold on to it. When I emphasized that I wanted to return it, I was told I would have to speak with the office administrator. Office Administrator agreed that I could bring it back for credit on my account. Since we never plan to go there again, I requested a refund. These meds should never have been prescribed to us. I drove back over there today to return the unopened untouched Saw Palmetto. Expecting a refund of my $76 plus $5.04 sales tax, I was instead given a return of $63.01 plus $5.04 sales tax. They tell me they are withholding $12.99 as a dispensing fee (which was not itemized on my original invoice) and also claim that they somehow undercharged me an addition $0.02 on the prior invoice. I left with a $68.05 refund to my credit card. I definitely do not recommend anyone to take their pets here. I hate to say it. I hate to admit what happened to me. I normally would not have posted something online at all. However, my experience might help someone else make better decisions with their own pets.

If I was the one on the other end, I could have been having an emergency with my pet. But checking out was more important than that persons reasons for the call. Again! They need more training on how to be more professional, somethings shouldn't be said in front of a client.

He felt her and said she was filled with cancer. Of course we had to put her down. I took my dog in for a physical. They said he had high blood pressure and sold me medicine for it. I took him to 2 other vets and they found no high blood pressure. I'm glad I hadn't started the medicine. Recently my cat broke his hip. I drove here because because it was close and my cat was in pain. I got there at 7:50. There were people walking around in there and opened the door long enough to tell me they don't open until 8:00. I just stood there waiting and they let me in at 7:55. They told me the vets don't come in until 9:00. I could come back at 9:00 and see if there were any openings. If there were no openings I'd have to go elsewhere. I walked out knowing that I could make it to my usual vet (Wheaton Animal Hospital). 25 minutes later I walked in with my cat and he was immediately in with a vet. He did the necessary surgery and I was able to pick him up the next day.
