Staff and doctors couldn't be nicer or more accommodating. I called in a panic about my cat and the front desk was incredibly helpful, caring and got me in right away. Dr. Fink took her time with me and my cat. She sat down and played with her while I explained what was going on, and she patiently walked me through her diagnosis and recommended treatment. I also appreciated their COVID protocols: I checked in from my car and waited there until a clean exam room was available (~5 minutes), so my cat and I could go straight in and get settled.

I had a nice first experience at highland park veterinary clinic. They were able to fit me in with little notice, made sure I knew where to go and any Covid procedures, and were very compassionate to my pets medical issues. I dont have a long history here but intend on making this our primary vet. Cute dogs at the desk too (behind a gate not loose).

I have only been living in Illinois for a few months. My cat started to worry me and I called to enroll as a new patient after finding this vet close by. The front desk was kind and helpful and Dr. Fink was amazing. She was caring, knowledgable, and honest. For not having a prior relationship with the vet, I felt overwhelmingly cared for while there getting help.
