After bringing my pets here for 15 years, I was told I could not bring my dog there anymore through a letter with her file attached. I went in because of a fracture on my dogs tooth. I was presented with 2 quotes to take care of it. A high and low. I didn't know there was an issue of me asking about it until I received the letter/file. The letter stated that apparently I didn't trust their opinion and care and that anything they suggested they would be doing the same for their own pets and to find a new vet. I never realized asking for clarification meant you didn't trust a clinic I had been bringing my pets to for 15 years. I was so disappointed in them all there. I have since found a great vet for my dog where I CAN ask questions... Read Less

I'm so glad I listened to my sister when she told me to take my doggie here! Dr Nick and Dr Tina are AMAZING! I will be forever thankful of them for saving my Coco! They took me as an emergency walk-in and had to do surgery right away. They truly love and care about their patients unlike other places I've been to before. They treated her like they had known her forever. They're so smart and explain everything so throughly I felt like I was in Veterinary school. The Vet techs, nurses and receptionists were wonderful as well! Very sweet and caring. I'm never taking Coco anywhere else! Read Less

I have been going here for 13 years, for dogs and cats, and I am confident that my pets always get the best care. The staff here is second to none and there is a very low turnover rate. With only a few exceptions labs have been done onsite. X-rays taken to have several of my registered dogs' hips graded have been accepted the first time. I have had care from wellness visits to surgery, including tooth cleaning, managing allergies and arthritis, and heart disease. All has been done to my complete satisfaction. The other big thumbs up? My dogs don't mind going to the vet. One of the things I was concerned about when we moved to Crystal Lake was finding a vet that I could trust with my furry family. This is the first place I went, and I never even considered looking anywhere else. Read Less
