Arlington Heights Animal Hospital services

Our doctors and staff offer care for your furry family members for everything from annual wellness exams and vaccinations to surgery and hospitalization when needed. While most of our patients are dogs and cats, we also see "pocket pets" such as guinea pigs, rabbits, and rats on a limited basis.  

It's a fact, older pets require special care. We have extensive experience determining what testing, medications and proper diet will help your senior citizen as they age. 

Adding a new member to your family is exciting, especially when it's a new puppy or kitten. We will make sure your new addition gets the proper testing, vaccinations and preventatives. We can help with questions about diet, training, socialization or behavioral issues. 

Whether it's an elective procedure or something more urgent, our facilities can accommodate your pet's surgical needs. Our veterinarians have regularly scheduled  surgery days each week to give you the option of choosing your doctor. 

Dental health is more important to a pet's overall health than most people think. While we recommend a routine of dental care at home, sometimes it's necessary for a thorough dental cleaning under anesthesia. Our ultra-sonic dental machine cleans teeth for a healthy mouth free of tartar and gingivitis. Dental radiography available. 

Cryosurgery for pets is a safe treatment alternative to traditional surgery. The surgical technique uses liquid nitrous oxide to freeze unwanted tissue and destroys it. This is a good option for small tumors, cysts, skin tags and other skin disorders. There is very little discomfort for the pet so no anesthetic is needed and no need for sutures. Call today to discuss if your pet would benefit from this treatment. 

Our hospital lab is available to run several tests in-house such as urinalysis, fecal testing and a variety of blood tests. We also use an outside service with regular pickups for a quick result return. 

With our in-house digital radiology services, we are able to diagnose a variety of conditions quickly and thoroughly. 

Ultrasound allows us to examine internal organs for location, size, shape, texture and blood supply. It is a useful tool often used in conjunction with other diagnostics such as bloodwork and additional imaging to aid in diagnosing your pet's condition.  

This service is restricted to 

established patients only

From antibiotics and preventatives to long term medications for chronic conditions, our pharmacy is stocked to fill your pet's prescription needs. We also have an online pharmacy that delivers food and medications to your house.  

 There are several conditions that may  require your pet to be put on a special prescription diet. We stock  limited amount of prescription diets by Hill's and Royal Canin. Others  can be special ordered or we can set you up with home delivery service.  Please call for more information. 

 1 in 3 pets goes missing during its  lifetime, and without proper ID, 90% never return home. A microchip for  dogs and cats gives the best protection with permanent ID that can never  be removed or become impossible to read.
