Real Stories from Real Owners

I recently visited Dundee Animal Hospital of Elgin with my pup, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Dr. Lupo was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything clearly. He created a thorough game plan for my pup’s diagnosis and made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way.

The entire staff was welcoming and professional. We’re excited to have found them and feel confident knowing our pup is in great hands here. Highly recommend!
All my girls go to the vet here and we always have such pleasant experiences with the staff and the doctors.

I really appreciate the doctors and staff that have taken care of my girls. You can tell they really care.
You have taken the best care of all my pugs, Butch, Penelope and Lily. Your compassion and love that you showed each of them was unmatched. You show that same love and great care to my Mia Rose. You are the best vet by far. ❤️
Our dog Groot decided it was time before we even got to do a full exam but I wanted to say thank you for being there in his final moments and helping us through the process. The staff was very professional and sympathetic. Words cannot express how much we appreciate it.
