Hey Dr. McReynolds and Adele,
I just wanted to say thank you, and I know I've said it many times but all the time you both invested in Capone helped me so much. Your office is great and I tell all my patients about you guys.
I feel it's really important to feel the love and compassion that your Doctor has towards your pet in case they ever need to stay over night you know your pet is in good hands. I'm just so happy I found Higgins Vet clinic. I actually asked my old vet to get my first cats' records and transfer them over so I can start bringing my first cat to them as well and my possible new baby cat.
Thank you again staff I really appreciate all the work you did for me today and also helping this stray!

Higgins Animal Clinic has been taking care of my kitty for the past year and a half. In that time, we have had three visits and have seen two different doctors. Both doctors were great, answering any questions or concerns I had regarding my little guy. They are usually on time with their appointments, from my experiences, but I always schedule early in the morning to avoid any delays.
For your first pet's initial visit, your exam fee will be waived, which is a nice touch. This office seems to be fair on pricing, and they also offer boarding, which we have not utilized yet. My cat, also, has anxiety when it comes to his checkup visits, and the doctors have been great at dealing with his feistiness. They even prescribed him medications to take, in the future, to ease his nerves with visits.
Kitan loves Higgins Animal Clinic!
I highly recommend Higgins, especially Dr. Damiana. I have a rescue dog from One Tail at a Time with some medical conditions so we are very familiar with the staff at Higgins. Everyone has been kind, patient, knowledgable and goes out of their way to make my anxious pup feel comfortable.

My two cats have only been patients of Dr. Damiana for a short time but it's hard to express the amount of care she and her staff showed toward my cats. Recently one of my cats (15 years old) encountered a back issue and Dr. Damiana told me all the options - one of which simply included care and comfort. I greatly appreciate this approach and not being made to feel guilty for not taking the MRI/neurologist approach at great expense. I love my cats dearly but I truly appreciate being given the opption of care-and-comfort and being made to feel that's okay. After 6 weeks, my cat just passed and again, they were so nice, from the receptionist to the doctor, and everyone I spoke to on the phone. This clinic came highly recommended by a friend and I can see why. They demonstrate a level of empathy and caring I didn't encounter at my previous vet.

My husband and I recently moved to the neighborhood, and I was glad to find a vet that is just around the corner! I took my cat in for his annual exam and vaccinations, and everything in the treatment plan was explained to me prior to starting any procedures. I really appreciated that the staff described pricing up front! The doctor spent a significant amount of time examining my cat and answering my questions concerning his diet. The staff followed u... up with us a week later to see how he was doing, which I thought was very sweet. The only negative thing about our visit was that we were the first appointment of the day, but we were brought back to our room 15 minutes late. I would highly recommend Higgins Animal Clinic to anyone in Roscoe Village!

Hi Dr Damiana and Higgins staff,
Moose wanted to say thank you for everything you did to get him ready for his European vacation! He had a wonderful time and appreciated being able to go everywhere (except the grocery store).....he enjoyed trips to Italy and the Vatican City as well as taking long walk along the rocky beach in Nice and eating out in the restaurant and being able to sit at the table with us.....we loved the French Riviera and the lifestyle :)
Here is a photo of Moose and I, overlooking Nice from the North Point. Thanks again and we will see you at our next visit!
To my dear friends at Higgins,
I, Casey the dog, spent so much time with you that you became my second family! My mom had to go see her mom a lot and you were always there for me. You made me feel not only well-cared for, but also loved!
With love,
Casey
P.S. And thanks for all the treats!
Higgins Staff,

Dear Higgins Animal Clinic veterinarians and staff,
I wanted to let you know that our mutual clients have been particularly pleased with the care they have received from your hospital, and I could not agree more. I know you help give geriatric pets a longer life, and more importantly, ensure that it is a good quality of life. Thank you for providing such wonderful care.
Dr. Juliana Lyles, Lap of Love Veterinary Hospice
Adele,
Hi. I finally remembered to send you some pictures of Henry, he is really coming along. Your help has been wonderful, God bless ...
John & Nance
Dear Adele,
Thank you so much for sending me the helpful information to cheer up our Duffy. It kept him and myself so busy! Duffy loves to watch everything I do. He takes things to the laundry basket and lots of other jobs. I've also ordered some of the new toys for him. Duffy can feel our sorrow and it's going to take all of us a lot of time.
With thanks - Kathy

To: Wheeling Animal Hospital:
My family has been nothing but extremely satisfied with the staff and services overall at Wheeling Animal Hospital! How many people out there can say that their dog actually LIKES to go to the vet. My little guy loves his visits there. That's when you know you have a great place for pet care!

Dear Wheeling Animal Hospital:
Pippin and Sallee really enjoyed their week's stay in your Pet Villa. Pippin said he had a great time during the day camp while he was there and Sallee is more outgoing because of her exposure to other dogs while there. Thank you to all kennel staff and Sue for your special care to details of their stay.

Dear Wheeling Animal Hospital,
When my family moved out to this area we didn't know which vet to take our dogs to and randomly selected yours through the phone book to try first. If we felt it wasn't worth it we were going to search for others. It turns out Wheeling is a distance from where we live and there are plenty of vet offices in between, but we ended up loving this office so much that we never plan to switch. I even boarded my dogs for the first time ever over the holidays, and cried like a baby when I had to leave them. Your staff was so kind and helpful and I could tell that they really care about the animals that it gave me comfort to know they were going to be well cared for. My dogs ended up loving their stay :) I love your office, boutique, and your staff. Keep up the good work!!
Anita
Dear Adele,

Dear Higgins Animal Clinic,
Thank you for making Chico and I feel so welcome at the clinic. It was truly a very rewarding experience, the professional and caring staff made chico feel very relazed and loved. Again, thank you for your kindness and professionalism. We are very happy with our new doctor and friends.
Dear Dr. Lindsay, Melissa, Omar, Arielle, Tricia, Lyz, Adele, Laura, Alena and all the staff that Choxy haven't met yet but are a part of the great place, the clinic, where we felt safe and cared for in the last few years...
Before we leave this beautiful city to enjoy some warmth in Florida for our old bones, we wanted to thank you all so very much for all the love, help and attention to our needs. We feel you will remember us even when the taste of chocolates is gone. We will miss you.
Love,
Choxy and Laura
