Certified Dog & Puppy VETERINARY Services in Cook County, IL, and Surrounding Area
Hilltop Animal Hospital of Palatine, IL, cares for your dog of any age – from the puppy stage to loyal senior. Our thorough examinations find what your furry friend needs to keep them happy and playful.
Preventive Care and Exams
Every dog deserves an excellent start. Preventive care is vital for your furry family friend's overall health and the defense to avoid some diseases. No matter your dog's breed, our doctors and staff offer you our experience to care for your puppy, adult, or senior canine.
Wellness Exam
Annual pet exams are essential for keeping your pet healthy and happy. They protect from any developing health conditions that may affect pets' quality of life.
Spay And Neutering
Spaying or neutering your pet has many benefits. It can help them live longer, healthier lives. It can also help reduce the number of unwanted pets in shelters. We offer spay and neuter surgery for dogs and cats. We will carefully monitor your pet during and after surgery to ensure their safety and comfort.
Dental Care
Dental health is important for pets, just as it is for humans. Poor dental hygiene can lead to gum disease, which can cause pain and tooth loss. It can also lead to other health problems, such as heart disease. We will thoroughly clean your pet's teeth and assess their oral health. We can also make recommendations for at-home dental care.
Surgical Procedures
We offer a variety of surgical procedures, including spay and neuter surgery, mass removal, biopsies, and more. We use the latest surgical techniques and equipment to ensure your pet has a safe and successful procedure. We will also provide you with post-operative care instructions.
Microchipping
Microchips carry only a unique identification number. If your pet gets lost and is taken to a vet clinic or animal shelter, your pet will be scanned for a microchip to reveal his unique ID number. That number will be called into the pet recovery service, and you will be contacted using the contact information on file with your pet's microchip. It is vital to keep your contact information up to date so that you can be reached.
Digital Imaging
Digital imaging is a non-invasive way to get detailed images of your pet's internal organs. We use digital X-rays and ultrasounds to determine what kind of treatment your pet may need. We also use digital dental radiographs.
Vaccines
Vaccination help prevent diseases that can be passed between animals and can help avoid costly treatments that could have been prevented. Please refer to our staff for recommended vaccine schedule.
Total Care for Your Dog
Daily routines include outpatient appointments and radiographs, ultrasounds by appointments, soft tissue and orthopedic surgeries, laboratory tests, and dental procedures.
First Aid and Emergency Services
Dogs often find themselves in situations that are hazardous to their health. When you need care right now, bring in your dog immediately when you see signs of vomiting, diarrhea, poisoning, seizures, or any other emergency.
