Dental care is an essential part of your pet’s overall health. When oral hygiene is neglected, pets can develop dental disease which negatively affects other systems in the body and may lead to tooth loss.
Vaccination
Veterinary Ophthalmology
Exams allow our veterinarians to detect problems and diseases that might go undiscovered otherwise, including heart murmurs, tumors, enlarged organs, cataracts, ear infections, ear mites, dental disease, skin issues and allergies.
Nutritional Counseling
Comprehensive Examination
Wright Animal Hospital offers preventive care and services for kittens, puppies, cats, and dogs. Bringing your pet to one of our veterinarians for a physical exam is the smartest and easiest way to keep them healthy.
If your pet has been diagnosed with cancer, chemotherapy may be an option for them. At Wright Animal Hospital, our veterinary oncologist can discuss treatment options including chemotherapy. Chemotherapy can slow the spread of cancer, shrink tumors prior to surgery, and buy precious time with terminally ill pets.
Wright Animal Hospital was established in 1954 by Dr. Thompson T. Wright. Since its purchase by Drs. Bruce Kramer and Frederick Drazner in 1981, the Wright Animal Hospital has become one of the pre-eminent veterinary clinics in Northern Illinois. With the latest in laboratory and radiographic technology, our hospital is also one of the most well equipped facilities in the United States. We focus on providing the highest quality medical and surgical services for your companion animals.
Laser Surgery
Laser surgery is a safe alternative to traditional surgery. As the name implies, this particular type of surgery is performed using a highly focused, handheld laser beam.
