Wright Animal Hospital: Junkas Kristin DVM 265 South River Road, Des Plaines, IL 60016

"This group is very kind and thoughtful to my dog who is very skittish as well as being very thorough in their exam"

"I used to leave 5 stars for years. (I joked that through years I spent little mercedes there). K. Junkas was like idol to me, so nice, so wonderful, so gentle, so kind.. Until mistake happened which was followed by dramatic emergency visit ending with eutanesia. (blood test per dr. Junkas was normal, per me as icu nurse show liver cancer (blood cells count was off), dr. Junkas insisted dog has tachycardia as cardiac issue and nothing wrong otherwise, and we need cardiologist. I let her convince me, wasted time on searching specialist. Few weeks later i seen my dog suddenly pale and not able to walk, well after ER expensive visit it turned out dog never had cardiac issue. It was tumor on liver/spleen that ruptured and dog massively internaly bled out. That said, there exist two very similar tumors, one type is agressive and the other benign, we will never know which one our dog had, as there werent time to do biopsy now.) And even though i didnt blame her for honest mistake and kept coming with my other dogs and parrot, after all i believed we had relationship through the time (naive ik), i was one of her very first "patients" when K. Junkas started. But very shortly afterwards this event things were deteriorating and i was to my ugly shock told im not welcome anymore. Also i see that mine and few others people negative reviews "expired". Not sure how that happens. So here goes my personal experience again ;)"

"Highly recommend. We ended up at Wright for oncology. Awful circumstances, but we are blessed to have found the best. Wish we knew about Wright sooner for our regular vet care."

"Dr. Junkas is amazing. Very kind and helpful"

"I take my cat here for all his regular care needs as well as his emergency care needs. I found this place when I needed a vet to get him in ASAP after he ate a bunch of packaging tape and started to repeatedly vomit and have been taking him there ever since. Dr. Junkas is quick but thorough with her examinations and everyone is so friendly."
