Oz Animal Hospital Lincoln Park

I recently switched to Oz after having a horrible experience at another chicago vet chain. I have a reactive rescue and he was given love and kindness during his care! The team really connected with him and me, making sure all my questions were answered and his screenings were completed. Really night and day compared to the other vet. We’ve had 2 follow up visits and he doesn’t even seem scared to go in, which is the opposite of his previous vet.

Lovely people. Outstanding care and attention. We were new patients and our old vet couldn't see us when our cat needed urgent care, but we were able to get an appointment right away with these folks. Definitely our new vets from now on!

This is a long over due, 5 star review! We took our 8 week old puppy, Monty, to Oz after picking him up from the breeder in April 2020. Within 24 hours, Monty was incredible sick and Oz was the closest vet to our apartment. Because we had just gotten him, any sickness was not yet covered by our pet insurance plan. Oz worked with us by keeping Monty in-patient during the day and we would nurse him at night for about 10 days. The Vets and staff took such great care of him, and did an excellent job guiding us through a difficult situation by taking time to explain to us everything that is going on. We tried talking to our crazy breeder, and Oz was kind enough to send a letter to us describing the illness - didn't help much because the breeder was insane, but the jester was appreciated! They worked with us on the finances, since we did not plan to have such a large expense immediately after getting our dog. If it wasn't for Oz, I am not sure Monty would have survived. I would recommend this vet to EVERYONE! We are so grateful for them! See pictures for a sad sick puppy, and a happy and healthy dog, who loves going to Oz Animal Hospital!

The staff here are really nice but they are terrible at communicating. When I moved back to Chicago, I took my dog to Oz so they I could get him up to date on everything he needed. Not only was the process not clear, but I've been back 3-4 times to catch up on vaccines because it was never clear what was needed and when. It took them two weeks to decline my dog's heartworm medication request because he was due for a heartworm test in January. Well.. why didn't they mention that the last 3-4x I went? I will not be returning. VCA has always been more communicative, organized and prompt.

Not a big fan of this vet. I’ve been going for a year and have spent thousands of dollars. One time I got my prescription for my dog refilled and they gave me the wrong meds. When I called two months later, they said they had nothing in their system that says they gave me the wrong meds but they were for a completely different organ. So I didn’t get refunded or even apologized to. They don’t seem super knowledgeable and are a bit all over the place. The people are very nice though.
