The attention given to my pet is amazing. I was a nervous wreck. Everyone from the Front Desk personnel to the assistants to the vet gave my dog top notch care. They got us scheduled, in the room, diagnosed, x-rayed and given medication in a very short time. They answered every question patiently and explained again when I asked. I walked in thinking I might leave alone but the staff was with me all the way through. They are like this all the time.

Very friendly atmosphere and great doctors. Clean environment and quick availability. Can be on the pricier side though.
Our pets have been patients of the veterinarian caregivers at Dundee Animal Hospital of Elgin since 1984. We are grateful for the excellent and compassionate care each pet has received. Dr. Lupo keeps our 16 year old cat’s thyroid condition under control and she is going strong. Thank you!
