• "After the vet I had gone to for 30 years retired, I was in a dilemma about where am I going to find another veterinarian that I can trust.  I did my research on Google "How to find a good vet?"  They said you shop for one, visit the place, see if you and your dog have a report with the doctor, etc.  So I set out to do my research.  I called quite a few animal hospitals and the first thing they wanted to do is have my files transferred over.  I told them you don't understand "I was shopping for a veterinarian."  My little guy has had a lot of health problems and I wasn't going to take him in to someone I didn't have confidence in.  My neighbor who works with dog trainers referred me to Skycrest.  Then I found out that they were listed as one of the 10 best in Chicago Magazine.  I went in to check them out and met with Dr. Wojcik and loved her right away.  Her heart is as big as her dog!  I have been going there about three years now and can't say enough about the caring compassionate Doctors and staff.  When you go there it feels like a home and family -- not a place of business.  I would tell anyone to take their beloved pet to these caring people.  Bless you for taking care of God's creatures." ~ Sally Ruppert + Zachary

• “My cat Muffy is 19.5 years YOUNG! She was diagnosed with renal failure about 6 years ago. We were going to a different vet clinic at the time but then moved to Hawthorn Woods and began coming to Skycrest. Dr. Wojick has been Muffy's primary doctor and we see Dr. Locke as well! Words can't begin to describe the amazing level of care and compassion that Muffy has received from everyone at Skycrest! From the first day we came to see Dr. Wojick, she treated Muffy like she was her own pet! Dr. Wojick & Dr. Locke always take the time to talk softly to her on the exam table and make her feel comfortable. I am happy to report Muffy's levels have remained consistent and have not declined and I feel that this is due to the great level of care that she has received from everyone at Skycrest as far as diet changes etc., it's truly a team effort in keeping a healthy happy pet! I really liked the fact that Jill took the time to suggest going to Pages Healthy Paws for grain free foods when Muffy ran out of options for medical food that she would eat. Everyone is always so friendly and cheerful, taking us to the exam room with a smile and are always so happy to answer any questions, I couldn't be happier! I would highly suggest Skycrest to anyone that asks!”  ~  Nicole Zitella

• "Without Skycrest, Barb and the Shachters, I would not have the 2 great dogs I have.  I can't imagine my life without Jasmine & Murphy. I believe they were going to be put down on the Monday after Thanksgiving, 3 years ago.  Barb set up an appointment to come to my house with the Shachters, Jasmine and Murphy, they have never left - I wanted 2 Labs that needed a home and I got them. I continued bringing them to Skycrest  & Dr. Locke because I didn't want to upset them again. I have been very happy with the patience they show Jasmine because of her fear of "tile floors".  Perhaps it's because you have so many caring woman there."  ~  Carole, Jasmine & Murphy Potts

• “We have been bringing our cats to Skycrest Animal Hospital since the days when Dr. Radner was primary doctor and owner.  All the doctors and staff over the years at Skycrest have shown excellent knowledge in veterinary medicine and  also, very loving and caring treatment when we bring our cats in for their annual check-ups  or if they are sick.   When the time has come we have had to say goodbye to our loved one the doctors and staff have been very compassionate and respectful of our pet and treat us all like we are family.  We really like the new website, reminders and up to date information they provide on care and guidance for our loving four legged family member.   We are very satisfied with the overall whole treatment medically and emotionally for the patients and family members and have tremendous confidence in the skilled doctors and staff at Skycrest Animal Hospital”. ~ Ron and Geri Gaj

• “Being a dog owner for most of my life, and having extremely high standards about the type of care that my dog deserves has inspired me to share our SKYCREST experience with you.  If my dog Oakley had his own iPad, I am sure that he would be typing his own review right now and I am confident that we would be in total agreement on our rating of SKYCREST as exceptional! From day one, we were welcomed to SKYCREST in a warm and personal way by everyone on staff.  I have always felt that the team is amazingly professional, caring and passionate about their work.  All of the Vets, Technicians, Receptionists and Diane, our groomer, seem to make an extra effort to build a relationship with our pet as well as our whole family.  I believe that this unique rapport is one factor that clearly sets them apart from your typical animal hospital.  Fortunately, our dog has been very healthy except for one episode that was intense.  Several of the staff members worked together to diagnose, treat and nurse our dog back to perfect health.  The best part of the experience was getting a personal call from Dr. Wojcik following up the next day to make sure our precious dog was on the road to recovery! You take service for granted when your pet is well and don't appreciate it until you're in a situation where you really need a competent caring vet to come through. I guarantee that when that situation arises, they will be there for you in the most compassionate way imaginable.  Thank you SKYCREST for raising the bar higher then I ever expected and for being so invested in our pets, families and in the Long Grove community!”  ~ Kim Kuhn

• “I have been going to Skycrest since 1971, well not me, but my collie Rusty and now all my cats.  My daughter who lives in Chicago brings her 3 cats to Skycrest.  My other daughter brings her dog to Skycrest.  We are a Skycrest family. All through the years we promoted Skycrest to our friends and they switched to Skycrest.  The reason is their excellent and professional care along with their kindness and enthusiasm.  They know how much we love our animals and each doctor and their assistants AND the staff treat our precious animals with so much respect.  They even talk to them as we would talk to our animals as if they are humans.  They understand that our animals are part of our family.  My cats, Monti and Yokie are so lucky to have such excellent care at Skycrest Animal Clinic and I feel so safe knowing my cats are in good hands, gentle and caring hands.” ~ Susan Parets
