University of Illinois Large Animal Clinic

I cannot thank the staff enough at U Of I equine hospital!! They are absolutely amazing! They not only saved my amazing barrel horse Wild Little Safari once but twice!! You will never meet more compassionate, caring, love their jobs vets and vet techs as you will here!! My boy had a HUGE bladder stone removed. Two weeks later fragments from that stone blocked his urine flow again! As soon as I arrived back with him Sunday night Dr. Graczyk jumped right in to help him! The next day his surgeon from first surgery Dr. Gutierrez was there and ready to help finish getting him unblocked!! He allowed me to stay and the entire room broke out in cheer when the last fragment was FINALLY out. Thank you to the entire vet,vet tech staff, and students who helped my heart horse!

The word colic haunts pretty much every horse owner especially when you learn surgery is the only option other than putting your horse down. The team at U of I Large Animal Clinic saved my 18 year old paint horse’s life. The surgeon Dr. Sara Gray, the residents, the staff and the students were absolutely amazing. My horse is a huge part of my life and my family and I couldn’t imagine life without him. Thanks to the wonderful people here, I don’t have to and I couldn’t be more grateful. I highly recommend this facility.

The staff here is excellent. They are very knowledgeable, kind and clearly compassionate for their patients. Thank you for taking good care of my horse Holly !

We were here yesterday and today with an injuried Nigerian Dwarf Goat and a pot belly piggy to be spayed. We initially called in over the labor day weekend holiday to discuss the injury to the scur and determine if the injury warented an emergency visit. Thankfully, we were able to schedule a non emergency visit. Since we were coming from Downers Grove all the way here, they allowed us to schedule the piggies spay at the same time. We are blown away at the level of excellence all around! From the emergency call and the ability to speak to a doctor and the front desk for scheduling. The student team of doctors and soon to be doctors and the surgeon. This facility is an incredible operation. Our large animal pets spent the night and were clearly well cared for and doted on by staff. Thank y

We took our goats Monster and Tamale here for diagnostics. The staff was amazing and price was very resonable.
