Milo
Terri Z.

We were referred here from an emergency clinic in Illinois that could not provide the 24 hour care our dog needed in an emergency situation. While we didn't have the ideal outcome, the care my dog received when he was in distress was enough to ease my mind that everything had been done that could to help him. We appreciated the straightforward way we were supplied with information to decide what to do. The veterinarians and staff were compassionate about what had to be done and gave us time alone to spend with our dog. RIP Milo.

Knowledgeable vets in an emergency. Fair pricing. Can sometimes be a long wait as cases are triaged

I called ahead of time to check on pricing for the exam, etc., and one of the Vets answered and was so kind and patient while I explained what was going on. She reassured me they would walk me through a treatment plan we could handle after I brought her in. When I got there, I was met with the warmest, kind, helpful energy from every single person who worked there. From the person who did our intake, to the techs who did her initial vitals and administered her IV later on, (and cleaned up her mess on the way out - TY) to the Vet herself, I felt more than comfortable that they had my girls best interest in mind but were also realistic with what I could spend and how far we wanted to go with her care considering that she's 15.5 years old. After the vet examined her, I was sent a quote via email I could approve via my phone, and while I paid cash, they have an instant link you can pay for your services via credit card through email as well, which I found amazingly efficient and made what I was spending and what was included crystal clear so there was no anxiety about hidden costs. (I also found this place to be INCREDIBLY reasonable in their pricing compared to the other Vets I've gone to in the city). Special shoutout to the tech with the amazing mustache and the woman who administered her IV.... He was down on the floor, with my pup's head in his lap, petting her and saying the sweetest, most reassuring things while the other tech also just gave her such praise that we got some little exhausted tail wags out of her during what couldn't have been a comfortable process. It was just what we both needed in that moment, so thank you both so, so much. I was calm but pretty emotional, and I just felt safe coming here and would 100% come here again if needed, and recommend that anyone facing something like this with their fur baby come here too. The entire experience was quick, efficient, and again.... the kindness and genuine love they showed my baby was all I needed to know to feel comforted during a stressful moment. Happy to report the treatment she received has dramatically improved her condition in just a day, so overall it was a 10/10 experience.

After making an online booking for an in-home euthanasia I called to ensure that this was actually going to be our blessing. Not only did they were reassure me that they would come but I received a phone call and a text message that someone was on their way. This was over and above what was shared. Dr. Elhe was compassionate and took the time to know our story and what an EPIC dog she was helping put at peace. She even sent a card sharing her sentiments. It was just a few days later that we received notification that Remus's ashes would be coming soon. We could not be more grateful!!!

By the afternoon he was not better, I called our Vet again and was told to take him to an emergency or urgent care. We make an appointment with Oak Creek Urgent Care on Howell Ave. We got there and was told there was one person ahead of us for a room and the other rooms were full. After an hour and a half, watching people that came in after us get in (I totally understand urgency) I asked them how long was this going to be. We were told it would be at least 45 min to an hour to get into a room, after that we would be waiting for the one and only Vet on staff that day (on a weekend) I explained he has been vomiting all day, 13 times to be exact and that is an emergency. He was also very passive, which is totally not normal for him. I was told the same, 45 min to hour to get into a room. We then left and went to Blue Pearl and they got him in right away. Long story short, they took him in back to examine him while we gave all of the history and his medical history. They did bloodwork and unfortunately, the only humane thing to do that day was to let him cross the rainbow bridge. All in all, before we got the news and after we got the news, Dr Olson was fantastic, caring, and listened to us. They kept us up to date on every step. After the news, we were put into a room to wait to see him, again, the staff was so very caring. I cannot express enough the caring that was shown, how appreciative we are at such a difficult time. And also to have the experience to know a real emergency and take him in right away, not let him lie and wait. Thank you to all of the staff and Dr Olson for what I feel is going above and beyond. Toby says thank you also.

My kitty wasn't being treated with any urgency at all, they made us wait 5 hours to be seen by the vet which did absolutely NOTHING!!! We then got an estimate on some x rays which at this point the estimate took an extra hour to even get to us. We then got questioned "is it the time or is it the money?" It was the horrible customer service that was provided to us?!?!. Our cat threw up and had stool in the room, I had to get the attention of the receptionist to have someone clean up and guess what NOBODY KNEW WHO WAS TAKING CARE OF OUR ROOM! As a business owner my self ... I am so understanding of situations but honestly this was the worst experience I have ever dealt with. I was then charged for an EMERGENCY exam... all this vet did was check his teeth, heard his heart beat, and then said "he isn't telling me what is going on with him." But proceeded to charge me $200 for it alone. I asked how much longer it would be for the medication and all they could tell me is that they were unsure what the wait was since this is how it is every Sunday?? I got here at 12:30pm by 6pm I had no medication or anything answered so I headed to the front desk and told them I would pay for exam since my kitty hadn't even received his meds. When I mention I was taking my business somewhere else everything was done within 5 minutes & somehow everyone turned supper kind towards us. This was the most unprofessional business I have ever been to. I wish there was an option for 0 stars

Last week we had a major scare and were transferred over to VSC from VEG, and upon our arrival they were already expecting us and were able to take our pup in and get her situated since she was in so much pain. Once we were in the room they walked us through best case scenario, and worst case scenario. To admit, they require the deposit for the minimum amount. The staff made sure to explain and present our options after evaluating the severity of our girl. We were able to walk out knowing what will and could happen. Before we left we were taken to the back to see our girl, and were offered visiting hours and the ability to call and check in with updates at anytime. The nurses were so nice and treated our girl so well that when it came time for us to say good night or bye for now she walked off without hesitation knowing they were going to take care of her. We've been in and out for a few different reasons since this trying to figure out the right dosing to help our girl heal, and to keep her comfortable and healthy. We were able to call in the middle of the it with questions and if we should bring her in or if there was something we could do at home to keep her comfortable. Each time we came in we were welcomed, headed and taken care of. We worked with a few different doctors over the course of the last week and were really glad to see how much attention and care they put into each pet and our girl. Overall, we had a pleasant experience. You never know what could happen until it does. They will talk through all the possibilities and give you your choices. You'll never have to feel silly about deciding what's best for you and your family.

I first went to this clinic about two years ago when my senior dog collapsed and had a seizure. By…read morethe time we arrived, he was already doing much better, but we didn't want to take any chances. We lived only 10 minutes away and didn't have time to research other options. Looking back, it felt like a money machine. They ran a bunch of tests, including some that our regular vet later said were absolutely unnecessary. After all that, they still couldn't tell us what was wrong. What they could do was recommend leaving him overnight on oxygen for around $2.5k per night. Ridiculous! Of course I said no because he was already much better. We left with a $1.7k bill and no diagnosis, only guesses. They also referred us to a specialist, where we spent another $1k on tests only to be told that our dog was fine. Fast forward to recently. My dog has colitis and occasionally has flare-ups. He developed diarrhea and, unlike previous episodes, stopped drinking water. Our regular vet got us in the next morning, but I was worried about dehydration overnight, so I called this clinic because it was late in the evening. I specifically asked whether they could evaluate him and give him fluids to help get him through the night until his appointment. I explained that he already has a known history of colitis and that we already had a plan with our regular vet. Women on the phone was very rude and basically told me that none of that mattered. I was told they require a standard list of diagnostic tests no matter what, and then the veterinarian could decide if even more tests were needed. When I asked if we could skip the full workup and just provide supportive treatment, I was told no, that's their policy. So instead I went to another emergency clinic in Buffalo Grove. They gave him fluids, got him hydrated, and sent us on our way to follow up with our regular vet the next day. No endless testing, no pressure, no trying to turn a straightforward situation into a several thousand dollar visit. Based on my experiences, this place seems far more interested in selling diagnostics than providing practical care. Stop giving your money to this clinic, they don't care about you or your pet, they only care about your money!
