Merrillville Animal Hospital - Dr. Alicia Gustafson DVM

"Dr. G is a pet lover! She is not tring to nickel and dime you. She is not upselling products and services. She cares about you and your pets needs. I left my giant out of touch vet in Hobart for Dr. G and I've never looked back."

"You will never find such a compassionate, caring, intelligent vet like Dr. Alicia. She took care of my elderly dog and cat with excellent care until it was time for them to head to heaven. She is personable and she spends lots of time with her patients explaining all your options as a pet owner. I just purchased a new Boston Terrier puppy so I will be returning to her practice."

"Dr. Gustafson has taken wonderful care of our pets in the past years. She is always honest with her recommendations on treatment; And from past positive experiences, we feel confident leaving our animals in her team's care if they have to be dropped off. Great asset to the neighborhood and would recommend her services to anyone with a fur baby."

"I brought my cat in because he needed a tooth pulled. Had a very bad experience with a vet in Lake Station so my friend told me about MAH. Dr A was awesome. She showed me everything that was wrong with my cats mouth and after the surgery... she showed me pictures of the work she did... pictures!!!! Dude... what vet has ever showed you pictures ( kinda bloody and gross but still). Dr A is my new vet. Hands down best in town. The pics are him with his snaggle tooth, him in a soft collar ( not happy lol) and him all healed.. chilling in his fav chair."

"I cannot even begin to explain how grateful my family and I are that we found Merrillville Animal Hospital. We discovered them about a year, year and a half ago. Our sweet doggy girl, Leia, was a Great Dane and she faced many pestering health issues in her lifetime. Other vets in the area that we took her to completely gouged us for money just to simply give her repetitive medicine that she needed for recurring health issues. Immediately off the bat, Dr. Gustafson could see that the issues Leia was facing were no walk in the park. She truly cared for her with love in her heart. Unfortunately, last week we had to let our sweet girl cross the Rainbow Bridge. Dr. Gustafson was gracious, empathetic, and full of compassion and love during one of life's most difficult moments. I will never be able to thank her enough for how she cared for Leia. I can most assuredly say that her passion is for the true well-being of your fur babies. I would recommend and give more than 5 stars if I could. Thank you Dr. Gustafson and team. You are all making a difference in the world and I assure you it doesn't go unnoticed."
