I highly recommend DuPage Animal Hospital and especially Dr. Felt. We have been seeing Dr. Felt for 20 years now. She is caring and knowledgeable. She treats my fur baby as if she were her own. At our last visit, the staff had to remind her to move on. As my fur baby is in her last days, I am so grateful for Dr. Felt and her willingness to spend as much time needed with us. The other vets and staff are awesome as well. If we decide to have another fur baby in the future, there is no doubt we will be back. Read Less

This Animal Hospital is beyond AMAZING! I have honestly never met a better group of people who genuinely care for and love animals! Dr. Angela Clark went above and beyond to help my family when our family dog Cleveland needed emergency surgery. Her nursing assistant Abby was so kind and kept coming out into the waiting room, keeping us informed and checking in on "our" wellbeing! If that wasn't enough the prices at this hospital fared far better than ANY other surrounding animal hospital. I found out that this is because what is MOST important to the owner of this hospital is making things practical so our animals who are truly extensions of our families can be taken care of and healthy. I will never take my animals anywhere else. This place is truly a blessing to all animals lovers!! Read Less

We have been bringing multiple pets to Dr. DiGiacomo for years--both adult cats and dogs, and a skittish younger pup. Dr. DiGiacomo always goes above and beyond to make sure that the visit is calm, comfortable, and is always extremely thorough--she makes sure that any questions we have are fully addressed, and offers up multiple avenues of care options for us. She always allows us (the pet parents) to be fully informed and then involved in the decisions made about the animal's care--she is never prescriptive or insistent, but makes sure we have all the necessary information so we can work together as partners to make the most productive and beneficial decisions. She has an extremely calm and gentle approach to all our animals, and is extremely hands on with them, from performing physicals to doing less appealing tasks such as gland extractions. Prior to having her as our veterinarian, we had never had a positive experience with a nail-trimming on our large, young, rescue dog--who is extremely fearful of new people, and of having her nails trimmed in particular. Dr. DiGiacomo worked wonders with her--she was able to forge a bond of trust in order to allow her to trim the dog's nails with a minimum of stress and anxiety. Amazing! Dr. DiGiacomo's intervention also saved our older cat from a second stone-removal surgery--she suggested a course of care that involved switching his food, then made sure to follow up with a second scan, and incredibly, the stones had dissolved! This not only saved the expense of a procedure, but also, more importantly, prevented a sweet and much beloved cat from having to undergo another invasive operation. We were incredibly grateful to her for her care. Our older dog adores Dr. DiGiacomo, and inevitably, she ends up crawling into her lap while she's examining her--all the better to get pets and attention. When she came in with a cough, rather than just dismissing it as a virus, Dr. DiGiacomo took the time to ask about the type of walks she takes, and the type of leash/collar she uses. Through our conversation and an X-ray (which I am sure ate up more of her time) she was able to determine that her collar was actually constricting her neck too severely, causing her to cough. I could see how a less invested doctor might not have taken the extra steps to make the trickier diagnosis. This visit also clearly demonstrated that she is a doctor who genuinely cares about her patients, and is devoted to ensuring they receive the best and most accurate care. During any day, all the doctors must deal with a myriad of cases, unexpected situations, stresses, and extended hours. In each and every visit, we have always felt that Dr. DiGiacomo never gives us less than her full attention, and always ensures that our animals, and their humans, feel understood and cared for. She clearly cherishes the bonds between people and their humans, and always honors that in her approach. I can't recommend her strongly enough for anyone looking for a veterinarian. Read Less

Took my cat there to get laser declaw and another 3 visits for other services.  I always had great service, attention & kindness from all staff.  I have taken my cat back there a few times for some general well visits & the only comment I have is the fact that I went in to have his anal glads extracted (look it up, I sure did after holding my cat to my chest only to be forced to change my shirt due to the nasty smell that my lovely cat left on my shirt) and I was charged for an "overdue check-up" & it was added to my total.  I told the cashier I never requested the service, the fact that the vet took it upon herself to add a check up to my visit to my appointment for anal gland extraction only for my cat simply because the vet looked at the file & noticed my cat was due for one, this did not go over well with me.  The office never discussed this with me or the charges.  I told the cashier I was not going to pay for this service and if they insisted, I would simply find somewhere else to take my pet.  The cashier quickly removed the charge & apologized.    Just make sure you pay only for services you requested.

We've been taking our dog Mische to DuPage Animal since she came home to us 10 years ago. Her care has always been outstanding. When she recently started exhibiting serious symptoms, we initially expected a gastrointestinal or kidney issue. However, Dr. DiGiacomo spotted a serious problem that was causing her symptoms and put us in touch with a specialist. The information Dr. DiGiacomo gave us allowed us to closely monitor Mische while we waited for her appointment with the specialist. When we ended up taking her into her specialist through their emergency department, Dr. DiGiacomo followed her progress and checked in with us on her release, offering us useful suggestions for her continued care. While we remain guarded on Mische's long term outcome, the care she received at DuPage Animal has given her the best chance of survival. We are grateful to Dr. DiGiacomo and her team for catching this issue and also for their continued moral support and would recommend DuPage Animal to anyone. They really care about their patients and their families. Read Less

My dog was a patient of Dupage AH for 12 years.  The facility itself is run down and the staff (with the exception of Judy who is awesome) is average, not friendly or welcoming...but, I thought the care was average/ decent.  I thought Dr. DiGiacomo was great - until the very end, when my dog's health was declining.  Basically my dog had an aggressive form of cancer, but was misdiagnosed as cellulitis by Dr. DiGiacomo.  I tried to ask the Dr if it could be something else, as the swelling wasn't responding to treatment, but she said no its not, and I better get used to the idea that my dog will die of an ostheo related death.  All this over the phone, while she was rushing to get off the phone with me because she had another call to make, or, she was sick of me calling her, the vet, about my dog, who was obviously in pain. I got a 2nd opinion and Animal Ark in Chicago and the Dr. said she suspected a nerve sheath tumor, aggressive - tests confirmed it was...and when I called DuPage to advise of his condition Dr. DiGiacomo never responded.  I had a month left with my dog but I was able to keep him comfortable...not to mention the new vets at Animal Ark were incredibly compassionate.  Our new vet even called the day our boy passed to express their sympathy.  They sent a card and a donation to dog cancer research.   DuPage Animal hospital?  I kept getting emails about my dead dogs upcoming visits.  I wrote them and advised my unhappiness with their facility and lack of compassion but no one seems to care.  I regret taking my dog there for as long as I did and I would never visit this facility again.

I am so grateful to my friend who recommended that we come here!  My husband and I recently brought a new puppy into our family and decided it was time to get a vet that was a little closer to home.  We have two 8-year-old cats as well and were driving about 40 minutes to our old vet.  (nothing was wrong with our old vet, just the location)I cannot say enough about Dr. Mary Felt and her staff at the DuPage Animal Hospital.  Every time I've visited with either our puppy or our cats, I leave feeling informed, comfortable, and happy.  Dr. Felt really takes the time to have true conversations with you about your animals.  She doesn't just do a quick check up and tell you that you need to do this or that.  We've discussed the pros and cons of each procedure in depth before moving forward with anything.  I also appreciate that when a follow-up call is needed for one of my animals, Dr. Felt was the one that was calling me so that I could ask questions directly to her.Anyone that has a pet knows that they are a big part of your family and hold a special place in your heart - it really helps to know that you can bring them to a vet that you can trust.

Dr. Di Giacomo is great! The staff is very friendly, and they are very knowledgeable when I have any questions. My puppy loves going to the vet. They make her feel very comfortable.

I have been bringing my pets to DuPage since the 1970s. They are the only vet practice I trust. The doctors are knowledgeable, patient, thorough, and always very accommodating. All of the doctors, including Dr. Maves are wonderful. My cats usually see Dr. DiGiacomo, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend all of the vets. I have seen every doctor at one time or another.

People at Dupage animals hospital are amazing. They are all about animals. I have gone thru so many different vets in the past and never was happy until I went to Dupage animals hospital. I finally found a vet that I am happy with. I couldn't ask for any other vet. I recommend everyone to go there. I told my sister about it and she went there. She said after visiting this vet it's impossible to go other vet. So I recommended my sister in lW who live far , she loves this vet too. They are warm, caring staffs. I would recommend you to go there. Even my pets love it there. All the doctors there are AWESOME!! Even the staffs working front they are great people! Read Less

Took my cat there to get laser declaw and another 3 visits for other services.  I always had great service, attention & kindness from all staff.  I have taken my cat back there a few times for some general well visits & the only comment I have is the fact that I went in to have his anal glads extracted (look it up, I sure did after holding my cat to my chest only to be forced to change my shirt due to the nasty smell that my lovely cat left on my shirt) and I was charged for an "overdue check-up" & it was added to my total.  I told the cashier I never requested the service, the fact that the vet took it upon herself to add a check up to my visit to my appointment for anal gland extraction only for my cat simply because the vet looked at the file & noticed my cat was due for one, this did not go over well with me.  The office never discussed this with me or the charges.  I told the cashier I was not going to pay for this service and if they insisted, I would simply find somewhere else to take my pet.  The cashier quickly removed the charge & apologized.    Just make sure you pay only for services you requested.

We've been taking our dog Mische to DuPage Animal since she came home to us 10 years ago. Her care has always been outstanding. When she recently started exhibiting serious symptoms, we initially expected a gastrointestinal or kidney issue. However, Dr. DiGiacomo spotted a serious problem that was causing her symptoms and put us in touch with a specialist. The information Dr. DiGiacomo gave us allowed us to closely monitor Mische while we waited for her appointment with the specialist. When we ended up taking her into her specialist through their emergency department, Dr. DiGiacomo followed her progress and checked in with us on her release, offering us useful suggestions for her continued care. While we remain guarded on Mische's long term outcome, the care she received at DuPage Animal has given her the best chance of survival. We are grateful to Dr. DiGiacomo and her team for catching this issue and also for their continued moral support and would recommend DuPage Animal to anyone. They really care about their patients and their families. Read Less

My dog was a patient of Dupage AH for 12 years.  The facility itself is run down and the staff (with the exception of Judy who is awesome) is average, not friendly or welcoming...but, I thought the care was average/ decent.  I thought Dr. DiGiacomo was great - until the very end, when my dog's health was declining.  Basically my dog had an aggressive form of cancer, but was misdiagnosed as cellulitis by Dr. DiGiacomo.  I tried to ask the Dr if it could be something else, as the swelling wasn't responding to treatment, but she said no its not, and I better get used to the idea that my dog will die of an ostheo related death.  All this over the phone, while she was rushing to get off the phone with me because she had another call to make, or, she was sick of me calling her, the vet, about my dog, who was obviously in pain. I got a 2nd opinion and Animal Ark in Chicago and the Dr. said she suspected a nerve sheath tumor, aggressive - tests confirmed it was...and when I called DuPage to advise of his condition Dr. DiGiacomo never responded.  I had a month left with my dog but I was able to keep him comfortable...not to mention the new vets at Animal Ark were incredibly compassionate.  Our new vet even called the day our boy passed to express their sympathy.  They sent a card and a donation to dog cancer research.   DuPage Animal hospital?  I kept getting emails about my dead dogs upcoming visits.  I wrote them and advised my unhappiness with their facility and lack of compassion but no one seems to care.  I regret taking my dog there for as long as I did and I would never visit this facility again.

I am so grateful to my friend who recommended that we come here!  My husband and I recently brought a new puppy into our family and decided it was time to get a vet that was a little closer to home.  We have two 8-year-old cats as well and were driving about 40 minutes to our old vet.  (nothing was wrong with our old vet, just the location)I cannot say enough about Dr. Mary Felt and her staff at the DuPage Animal Hospital.  Every time I've visited with either our puppy or our cats, I leave feeling informed, comfortable, and happy.  Dr. Felt really takes the time to have true conversations with you about your animals.  She doesn't just do a quick check up and tell you that you need to do this or that.  We've discussed the pros and cons of each procedure in depth before moving forward with anything.  I also appreciate that when a follow-up call is needed for one of my animals, Dr. Felt was the one that was calling me so that I could ask questions directly to her.Anyone that has a pet knows that they are a big part of your family and hold a special place in your heart - it really helps to know that you can bring them to a vet that you can trust.
