‘the Mayo Clinic of Veterinary Medicine’

LINCOLNSHIRE — The letter was framed, posted on the wall, and heartfelt.
It was a thank you note from someone whose friend died in the adjacent room. Although she lost her friend in that medical center, the letter’s writer made sure to express her appreciation for the care her friend received before cancer claimed him.
“Montana was a happy, loving, beautiful genetic defect who never should have made it past his first birthday,” the writer explained.
Montana was a dog, and his owner sought treatment for his cancer, ulcers, bad hips and more at Veterinary Specialty Center, 1515 Busch Parkway, located on the border between Buffalo Grove and Lincolnshire.
Calling themselves “the Mayo Clinic of veterinary medicine,” the group hired seven new staff members in September, including an oncologist, surgeon, radiologist, neurologist and a specialist in sports medicine and rehab — all for animals.
“It’s one place that people can bring their pets to treat conditions with input from multiple disciplines,” explained JoAnn Stewart, the hospital director.
