Animal Hospital of Western Springs

Hey I just wanted to shout out Animal Hospital of Western Springs. They SAVED my cat. He ate something he shouldn’t have and it was stuck in his intestines, he threw up like 6 times in 10 hours and by the next morning he was lethargic and not wanting to leave his house. I called my regular vet because that’s where I take all of my pets and they couldn’t see him. In all the years I’ve had my pets I’ve had three emergencies and their regular vet would never be able to see them (even though they take emergency visits👀) they are always booked up. The first time I had an emergency (my dog chipped his tooth) they referred me to the animal hospital of western springs. It was 20 minutes away from house so I took my dog there. The next two times they referred me to an emergency vet hospital in Chic

Chunkys first time due to a emergency It was a good experience, Good staff, great doctor Doctor took the time to explain chunkys condition and explain the treatment plan. It was affordable so that’s a plus ⭐️

My experience here was very stressful. I had a senior dog of 16 years that I wished to have groomed because of her age the vet suggested to put her under anesthesia and she might not survive. 500.00 was the amount the veterinarian wanted to charge. Unfortunately I didn't have that much as I sat there with my heart in my arms crying the last thing he said to me was, how do you wish to pay. I walked backed to my car with my dog( she was family) she passed away that evening and with money I had for the grooming I had her cremated. I'll forever miss her.

My pets liver results over a year ago were at 138. I did testing with another vet. I came to this clinic for the first time a month ago, and it was 167. After they prescribed EXPIRED MEDICATION, and we used it not knowing, the results DOUBLED. Stay far away from this clinic!!! After we came back to confront them after prescribing expired medication TODAY AGAIN, they took the bottles. They are all about the money, they do not care about your pets health! To be clear, the medication purchased(1 of 2 recommended) , was given to us twice, both times expired. In addition to that, the previous veterinarian ( their employee ) told us to try 1/2 prescribed medications for a month and come back to test again, and if results are better, not to use another one at all.

The doctor looks and sounds like he loves animals and affordable I had my puppy taking there for the first time and it was a great experience
