It just occurred to me that I had never written a review for North Shore Family Pet because nobody…read moreever asked me to, and that seemed all the more reason to do so. Our dear dog recently passed away, but we were grateful that we discovered Dr. Bannow at this practice several years ago, because she and the whole team there made our Brynley's final years so much healthier and better. We live in the city of Chicago, 19 miles from this practice, but it was worth the trip for the care Brynley received there. Dr. Bannow was highly skillful and responsive, and even guided us on finding good care for her when we were out of town during a critical point in her care. We are very grateful for the care our precious dog got there. Thanks so much.

I'm looking for a new vet in the area. Called to inquire about dental service, just a ball park…read more.. Refused and basically mandated that an exam had to be done first. I didn't ask for a quote, just a baseline price. Asked if the exam was free then... nope, mandatory $80 to just LOOK look at the teeth, then quote. Tried to call back to see if its a full exam then, and the geriatric sounding receptionist kept sending my calls to voice-mail. Suss, when vets need to do money grabs like these, is business that bad, seriously? This far only one vet was transparent in pricing range ($480+) when asked... maybe it's the Northshore area

Our Basset Hound boy, Hoss injured his back and our regular vet said that if we opted for surgery,…read moreit would cost us (STARTING) $10K and then the after-care (therapy, medication, etc.) would cost roughly another $15K. He is 9 1/2 and we REFUSED to make him live the rest of his life convalescing from back surgery. My wife researched who to go to for possible holistic treatments, and found Dr. Mullen and as it turns out, she happened to be at Kohn Animal Hospital. Let me start by saying that Dr. Mullen made a HUGE HUGE HUGE and let me say again, HUGE impact on our boy. She started with laser treatments, acupuncture and vitamin B shots at his acupuncture points. She worked with him and after one treatment, ONE TREATMENT, Hoss was acting like his old self. Wanting to run, play with his brother. We had to keep him calm so he wouldn't re-injure himself. Here we are, 4 months later, and he is still doing AMAZING. Dr. Mullen changed our boys life for the better and we couldn't be happier and more pleased with the unbelievable level of care that Dr. Mullen has provided. She shows just how much she cares for each patient. She sees Hoss, she melts to the floor and gives him rubs, hugs, kisses, and is overjoyed to see him. Her expertise and knowledge of the course of treatment that she has recommended and is doing has surpassed our expectations. We recommended Kohn/Dr. Mullen to a dear friend of ours that has a French Bulldog (so does Dr. Mullen) and she was able to diagnose and is in the process of treating his boy's allergies and they are FINALLY under control and his boy is so much happier than he ever was before Dr. Mullen's expertise. We LOVE Dr. Mullen and she is the best vet (besides our regular vet) that we have ever had the pleasure and trust to take our boy to. If our regular vet were to ever close its doors, Kohn and Dr. Mullen would be our number one choice. Dr. Mullen is now more than our Basset boys doctor, she is family to us and we hope to keep seeing her for a long time to come!

We have a French Bulldog who needed to be snipped plus possibly have some work done on his nares. I wanted everything to be done in one surgery since French Bulldogs don't always do well under anesthesia. Dr. Preiser had the expertise to do both and the results have been good. The location also offers boarding which we have tried. I like that the dogs have their own individual outdoor area in addition to being taken out a couple of times a day for exercise. The hospital is undergoing a remodel and I can't wait to see the new space! If you are looking for a vet try Preiser Animal Hospital.

She was like talking to me like with an attitude like she giving me a favor that she's making an appointment I don't have a right to say that you guys putting me a hold for like almost 10 minutes two times and then she didn't like it. Then she started talking to me so badly and telling me that I'm yelling at her when I was like talking to her normally and I'm trying to make an appointment but those days she was giving me they were not working and she was just like hanging up the phone on me two times not giving me the manager to talk to laughing this is ridiculous.

Dr.Wilson and his surgery team were absolutely wonderful. Everyone was kind, patient, and made sure my dog was comfortable every step of the way. You can tell they really love their jobs. It was very reasonable priced from the consultation, wound care, and follow up appointments; the estimate was as precise as they could have gotten. All that being said, the front desk can come off a little short or rushed, especially if you're not used to their process or what they expect you to know. Once you get passed the learning stage (different than a doctors office for humans) they truly are kind people. Where things fell short for me was with the oncology department. The experience felt impersonal, and the final bill didn't match the original estimated quote despite my dog having the basic surgery with no extra add ins or assistance. Labs were drawn without asking us (charged triple our local vet would have charged) and we were charged for an X-ray that wasn't done, which came across as money-driven, intentional or not. We did get compensated for the X-ray. Overall, I'd definitely recommend BluePearl of Northbrook for emergencies and for the General Surgery department, Dr. Wilson and his team are amazing! I'd look elsewhere for oncology care based on our experience.

This pet hospital, in my opinion, seems to care more about money than about the well-being of…read moreanimals. I went in for a tumor removal consultation, but the vet who saw my dog was unhelpful and simply repeated information I had already received from my regular veterinarian. Before even discussing treatment options, they insisted on $5,400 worth of tests -- and then informed me that the vet doesn't perform surgery anyway. I ended up paying $240 just to receive an estimate for tests, with no actual help provided. To make matters worse, my dog was bleeding from a skin tag he had scratched. When I asked if they could cauterize or treat it to stop the bleeding, the assistant told me, "We don't do that here," and the vet just applied gauze and pressure -- the same basic care I had already done at home. By the time I got to my car, my dog was bleeding again. I had to take him to another hospital that actually cared enough to help. Sadly, this place showed no compassion or urgency when my pet needed it most.

We had to make the decision to put him down as he was starting to have seizures and decline quickly. Mary, Countryside's manager, got us in quickly. It was a tough situation as I was flying back in from out of town. Having to do something like this with your beloved pet is so, so difficult. The staff at Countryside, from Naomi at the front desk, from the gentle care from Dr. Mary Hannah and to the love of Bruno from vet tech Chris, made what could have been the worst life experience much more bearable. They treated Bruno with so much love and respect. Dr. Hannah was SO kind in how she spoke to Bruno gently and lovingly. This was so calming and reassuring for me and Bruno. Chris held and hugged Bruno giving him little treats with tears in her eyes. Countryside REALLY loved my dog. I also can't forget to mention Dr. Malitz and all the other amazing stuff there. They literally have no turnover of staff which speaks volumes! I have had a rough couple of months and have sent countless emails and made many phone calls out of concern, and they were always kind, patient and helpful.
