About this business

HealthcareVeterinarians

Metropolitan Veterinary Center was established in 2012 by Dr. Kjerstin Jacobs. She founded the practice based on her observation that there was an unmet need for high-quality, reasonably priced medical and surgical care for Chicago’s beloved pets, not only on weekdays but on weekends and late evenings as well.

After getting our first family dog a few years ago, we were struggling to find a vet that was reasonably priced, friendly, and convenient. We hit the jackpot when we stumbled across Metro Vet. We now have two dogs and couldn't imagine going anywhere else. #1 - There is accessible and free parking, which can at times be a hassle in the south loop. #2 - There hours at 7am to 10pm.... I am not sure if anything has ever been more convenient. #3 - Dr. June and the rest of the staff is always incredibly flexible and kind. On on... read more

Metropolitan Veterinary Center is great! We just got our two dogs in the past few months and this place is really close so we decided to give it a try, we were not disappointed. Dr. LaFave and her staff are friendly, knowledgeable and give great bedside manner to our puppies. The facility is great too. It's spacious, clean and has separate waiting areas for cats and dogs. I highly recommend Metropolitan Veterinary Center.

These guys are truly awesome! They are helpful and gentle and really put me and my dog at ease. We have had such an awesome experience with them that even after moving out of the city we continue to make the hour long trip from Schaumburg! The staff clearly loves what they do and loves your pet!

Went in for an ear and lip checkup for my dog. Was schooled and labeled by the tech as an irresponsible owner repeatedly simply because I refused to allow her to neuter my 11 yo dog, who has no medical problem with prostate or behavior issues. Before she realized my dog was intact, she actually praised how good health my dog is as a senior. She then refused to make an appointment to check the lump on my dog's lip.

Metro Vet is the best! I no longer live in South Loop but I will drive here because they take such good care of my dogs. The techs, front desk staff and doctors are all amazing.

They were the vets for our dog Bowery when we lived in Chicago and they have been hard to top. They were always super thorough and kind to Bowery, always treating him with care and love. We still have to this day the EMERGENCY manual and kit we got from their ER class.

We put our 15 year old kitten down yesterday. He's brought us so much joy and love over the last 15 years. We are still in shock and definitely in pain considering our tremendous loss. I'm taking the time out to write this today, first and foremost, because I wanted to thank the doctor and staff who took such compassionate care for us in our time of need. Our kitty had been sick for a while, he's had surgery (at a prior location) but he just wasn't improving overall and his health continued to decline. Since being seen at th... read more

Compassionate, loving and caring staff. The doctors diagnosed my King Charles Cavalier, Ella's condition in 15 mins after tests performed. I took her to 2 other hospitals who claimed to take X-rays and wanted to euthanize her. I asked for her test results and X-rays to take with me. The vet told me that where I take her would not need them. Since, they will perform their own tests. Metro Vet staff called the Vet hospital and had him on speaker and he was yelling and denying his actions. They asked him to forward the photos o... read more
