Today I had the displeasure of speaking with your employee Alison on the phone. She called about a misunderstanding with an appointment to have a very old, sick dog put down. During this phone call, Allison took it upon herself to make remarks to me, a crying, distraught pet owner, that judged my care of my pet. Despite being informed of the difficulties of my situation, she felt it safe to criticize my actions. Not only was it rude, given the situation, this was downright cruel. Read Less

The vet seemed competent, but the customer service experience was lacking. The lady behind the counter got annoyed easily. After my visit, I talked to her to schedule the follow-up appointment. She was very brusque, and kept writing down appointment times in their schedule at the same time she told them to me, without waiting for confirmation that I was available. When I told her that I work and have to do something in the afternoon, her whole mannerism changed and she became rude. Coincidentally, the vet cancelled our follow-up appointment. We never contacted them to reschedule, but we did get a card in the mail saying that we missed another appointment. It turns out that the lady had rescheduled our cancelled appointment for a few days later without confirming it with me or my husband. I'm waiting to see if they're going to charge our credit card for this "no show" but we've decided to change vets after this experience. Read Less

Seem to be knowledgeable and definitely handle the pets well, but they lack courtesy and basic customer service manners - especially the lady behind the counter. Always seems like we are annoying her when asking basic questions. Really frustrating. Also last time we were there for blood work they ran additional tests a few days later without our knowledge and charged our credit card $70 without our consent or knowledge.Read Less

Brought my Basset Hound in this morning for a check up and rabies vacancie. This was my first visit and I couldn't be happier with the level of care and professionalism from the entire staff. Myra the Vets assistant was absolutely wonderful with Truman, she was gentle and caring. She took her time to make Truman was well cared for. Dr. Swanson was equally as caring and gentle, she took her time and explained everything thoroughly. You can tell that everyone there genuinely love's animals and take great pride in there work. After this experience I couldn't imagine taking Truman anywhere else, they have a liflong client here. Read Less

Had such a wonderful experience here! Dr. Swanson, Rogelio, and Angie are all so friendly and welcoming.  (I'm positive the rest of the staff are just as wonderful too!) They explained everything without making us feel overwhelmed. This is a place you can feel confident that they really care about your pet. Dr. Swanson is knowledgeable and realistic. We definitely didn't feel like we were getting roped into all sorts of expensive medications and procedures. We have been taking our dog to PetSmart/Banfield and while they are nice it just wasn't the best place for us. I highly recommend brining your pets to Waukegan Pet Clinic! Read Less

After moving from Chicago to Waukegan, my wife and I needed a reliable, thorough veterinarian for our two Yorkies and our cat. We took our pets to Waukegan Pet Clinic, and found that Dr. Laurie Swanson, DVM and her staff were impeccable. Caring, kind, professional and knowledgeable. They explained everything to our satisfaction, and took the time to make sure that neither we or our pets felt rushed. The facilities are kept remarkably clean. Prices are reasonable and fair, but the service is top-notch. I am impressed and look forward to putting the health and safety of our beloved dogs and cat in Waukegan Pet Clinic's care for the years to come. Read Less
