Heartland Veterinary Clinic

Heartland Veterinary Clinic in Morton, IL, is a full service veterinary clinic that has been providing health, happiness and well being of our patients and, while doing so, providing exceptional veterinary service to the greater Morton area for over forty years

The Jefferson Pet Clinic, was founded by Dr. Duane Huwe over 40 years ago. He dedicated his professional life to veterinary medicine and provided quality, competent and compassionate care of pets throughout Morton, IL and its surrounding communities. The passing of Dr. Huwe in 2007 resulted in Dr. Michael Sanborn and his wife, Alexandra, purchasing the clinic from Dr. Huwe’s children. The Sanborns renamed the clinic Heartland Veterinary Clinic to better describe the area it serves. After Dr. Sanborn graduated from the University Of Illinois School Of Veterinary Medicine, he was uniquely qualified to carry on the clinic tradition, having worked as Dr. Huwe’s relief veterinarian for 4 years. There have been several changes through the years and many advances in veterinary medicine but the principles upon which the clinic was founded have remained the same

Mission — Our mission is to provide our clients with the very best loving, compassionate veterinary health and wellness care
