Absolutely love Dr. LaFave! She saved my cat Chainsaw when we didn't think he had a chance! The office is well organized, and the staff are extremely courteous! Seriously I couldn't ask for anything more in a vet's office! Oh, MOST IMPORTANT about the wait time, They are always on time! Love the office and I recommend it to everyone!!

Shy Lucia broke her leg playing in our breeders backyard 3 weeks ago. It was plated and she was healing really well until I decided to go to a more convenient vet in Chicago (Metropolitan Vet Center) instead of my trusted vet out in the country (Animal Hospital of Gurnee). The vet at Metro gave her a huge wrap, which covered her toes... And also charge $140 for it (included a mandatory "checkup"). She started tearing it up over the next two days so made the trek out to the country to have it changed again. There was swelling... read more

I have done lots of search to find a reputable vet for my new puppy. I'm so glad to find Metropolitan veterinary center. All staff members are very friendly and kind. Dr.Lafave took a good care of the puppy and provided with all information I needed. Most importantly, they really looked like pet lovers and that is important part. I would recommend this for anyone.

We love Metropolitan Veterinary Center. It was the first vet we took out 3 month year old pup too when we had an emergency. Dr. Jacobs and her staff were all very attentive and even offered to observe her the next day at no cost to ease our minds. Compassionate and comprehensive as promised!

Monday was a sorrowful day in our home! Ms. Scarlett, my daughter's pet for 11 years had reached the end of her time with us. Early that morning we traveled to the Vet Center for end of life care. My daughter was heartbroken and in tears. The staff explained clearly and compassionately what options were left. Their demeanor was so kind. They gave us a room to spend some time with Ms. Scarlett. We were never rushed! My daughter received a grieving packet and was told to call any time! Ms. Scarlett went peacefully in my daught... read more

Coming to metrovet is always a joy. Both mahogany and I love the doctors...they are so caring and skilled. We had a terrible experience with a mobile groomer today, a couple of cuts and inflamed eye, but I know Dr. Jacobs will take good care of my baby.

After 5 frustrating vet visits in the last 10 months at another vet clinic (Folks, don't keep going to a vet you don't feel is a match!), this was a breath of fresh air. The clinic was clean. The vet techs were friendly. The receptionist was friendly. Dr. Jacobs was exactly what I was looking for. She told me what I should do for my dog now, what I should probably do in X amount of time, and what I may need to do in Z amount of time. So nice to meet a vet who gives you a game plan for your aging dog with a new chronic health... read more

I moved back to Chicago last year from Virginia with my 2yo lab mix. When I got here I tried two other vets before committing to Metro Vet. Here's why they won me over: Location: It's in the south loop so it's walking distance to my house and Michigan Ave is a nice street to walk along. Even in the evening and at night it is well lit and fairly busy. It's also walking distance to DogGone Fun! which is where I take my pup for boarding, daycare, and grooming. Staff: The staff and Vets are always very nice and helpful. It seems... read more

This is the best veterinary clinic I have been too. I have been bringing my dog here since I got him when he was 7 weeks old. Being that he was my first dog, I had plenty of questions and the staff there always takes the time to answer them. There staff is friendly and polite and are great with handling my dog. It is great to have such a great veterinary clinic. I highly recommend them to anyone and would keep going even if I moved from the S.Loop.
