Overview
Where family pets and compassionate care meet. Providing outstanding veterinary care since 1948. Our hospital operates by appointments only. While we generally see dogs and cats, we can also treat rabbits. We love caring for pets through every life stage, seeing them grow and live happy, healthy lives with their devoted humans. Whether your pet needs preventative medicine or more immediate treatment to manage an acute condition, our team is equipped to provide them with the highest quality care, every time
Our animal hospital was the first of its kind in DuPage County. Built in 1948 by Dr. Walley Eagle, the hospital originally started as a mixed animal practice to accommodate the primarily rural area. However, things began to change and by the 1970’s, Glen Ellyn Animal Hospital became more focused on practicing small animal medicine. In March 1990, Dr. Buishas became co-owner of the practice. As a partner, Dr. Buishas reached out to the community and got the practice involved in working with animal rescues, and participating in spay/neuter programs. In addition to community outreach, Glen Ellyn Animal Hospital transformed over time into a full-service hospital by including more services and extending its operating hours. From day one, Dr. Buishas also dreamed of remodeling the hospital. In Fall 2001, that dream became a reality and construction began; in 2015, our hospital also underwent a complete interior remodeling. With every change, our facility has grown to offer more services, more space, and more hospitality for our clients and patients. We’re proud of the traditions we’ve built and the work we have accomplished over the years. We sincerely hope to spend many more years serving the Glen Ellyn community and caring for your beloved pets
Mission — We strive to build trust with our clients and patients through personalized, comprehensive care and clear communication. You deserve to be an active participant in the care of your pet, and be properly educated about their most essential needs. That’s why we’re here for you seven days a week to offer our services
