VCA today scanned a found lovely, very nice German Shepherd and provided info and advice. Free of charge! A chip was found but not registered thus no owner info. Just a serial number of no use. A microchip is not a GPS. Needs to be registered. I scheduled appointment next week for rabies shot. Dog is up for adoption. Approx 3 years of age. Thank you very much VCA.

We had our senior 176 pound mastiff mix treated here for a possible obstruction. They loved him and cared for him as if he were their own. He had to spend the night and they informed us and let us make all the decisions and were very clear on the costs of each step. Highly recommend. This boy is my life and I was initially so nervous to leave him in the hands of other people. But they treated him so well and took such good care of him. Thank you so much!!!

I wanted to leave this review for the VCA of Aurora for the amazing care and compassion Keebers received when we brought her in. Our information was promptly taken over the phone to expedite the check in process, and she was taken back for her emergency evaluation within ten minutes. About ten minutes after my husband and I were taken to a private room to await her prognosis. We already knew that there was a chance we may not walk out with our beloved cat, so when we were given the grim news we both met with overwhelming kindness and empathy for two grieving pet parents.

Thank you so much for showing our Old Lady joy and kindness in her last moments.

Our 10 month old Dalmatian was extremely sick after tearing stuffing out of a toy 3 days prior so we took him in at night on a Sunday. Our first experience was very stressful and x-rays revealed a GI blockage from the suspected stuffing consumption. An ultrasound was needed to diagnose the severity and determine the treatment but they wanted us to sign an estimate for surgery which was very expensive. We refused to sign it until after the ultrasound which wouldn’t be done until the next morning. I was very skeptical at this point and wanted to transfer him asap because I figured they just wanted our money. The next morning Dr. Sheila McCullough called with the ultrasound results and there was a blockage and more stuffing in his stomach but they wanted to treat it conservatively and induce vomiting. She stayed in communication with us very often and was very vocal about wanting the least invasive and most cost efficient options for our beloved pup and our bank account. They were able to get the blockage to pass and get him to throw up the additional stuffing. They also cleaned a room for us and put a blanket on the floor so we could come and visit him on his second night there. We are so happy to have Clark back home in a healthy, happy state! Thank you so much Dr. McCullough!!! (Photo is Clark happy to be heading home)

My dog Riley was run over by a hit and run driver in the Springfield Illinois country December 2021.. His hip broken and other lacerations that a local veterinarian was able to attend, promptly! It was determined that Riley needed hip surgery. Being that was Christmas and the fact that all the area Vets, UIC and St. Luis were on waiting list.
I contacted VCA Aurora Said bring him in we can help! 175 miles later…The facility was amazing! I’ve never seen a actual animal hospital. If you have not And love your pet . Take a tour ! The Staff was super helpful and concerned about my dog. Dr. Peacock,Riley’s attending ,came out and sat with me. He told me my options, the history of the different options and what he recommended for Riley. Also recommended a lesser cost affordable way. Thank you!
Riley continues to recover at a remarkable pace and Pet owner therapy.
My opinion; VCA did a awesome job at this facility from start to finish! Even after a followup trip and phone contact to see how he is doing. His expected recovery by the way was targeted for July 2022. Riley is almost recovered to full stride as of today! Pics uploaded!

Thanks VCA and Dedicated Staff
