North Shore Family Pet Hospital

"I highly recommend North Shore Family Pet Hospital. I have two elderly cats with some challenging health issues and my pets have received excellent care with care and compassion on every visit. Previous to finding North Shore, I have tried several veterinary practices in the Chicago area. On more than one occasion, my cats have received misdiagnosis, no follow-ups and unavailable veterinarians in emergent situations. These situations have led me to go to the emergency vet which is terribly expensive. North Shore Family Pet has been a breath of fresh air. When first calling, they were able to schedule an appointment pretty fast considering it was an initial visit. The doctor recommended several options of treatment at many different price points which allowed me to make the best decision for my pets. At North Shore, the team of doctors communicate very well with one another as was the case when I saw a different veterinarian there, other than my primary vet, due to an emergency situation with my cat. On follow-up with my primary vet, she was well aware of and aligned with the subsequent treatment my cat had received from the other doctor which reassured me that my pets are given the best continuity of care. The front office team was very accommodating to my needs. They offered several scheduling options that worked with my busy schedule. When I first checked in, they brought me directly into a room so my kitty could stay calm and not be with the dogs in the waiting room. The practice has cat only and dog only treatment rooms. In the cat only room, they have a Feliway pheromone plug-in to create a calm atmosphere for my kitty. I consider these actions above and beyond for a vet practice. The prices are reasonable and much less than most of the vet places I’ve been to in Chicago. With every visit, I’ve been very pleased with the entire experience while getting care for my two fur babies. I can’t say enough great things about North Shore Family Pet."

"Absolutely adore the staff at North Shore; they have been nothing but kind and accommodating, even for the most last minute of appointments. Above all, I appreciate that the vets truly do love their patients; they've made sure to make visits fun and fear-free for everyone involved! Dr. Makowski and Dr. Pepich in particular have been nothing but wonderful to me and my pup."

"I cannot thank you for the way you treated Coco until her last days, my 18 year old lady had a beautiful loved life and the best care ever. We are so blessed to have you as our vet Dr Allison Pepich!"

"We have trusted the staff with all out boys here for years. Today was Rudy’s turn to get neutered. He is our cleft palate and lip pup who needs a bit extra care. Thank you Dr Gardner."

"We have been bringing our cat Puffer to NSFP for over two years. We have received wonderful care from all of the staff. We highly recommend."
