News & Announcements
February is National Pet Dental Health Month!
To celebrate, we will be increasing our dental cleaning discount to $125 for the month of February!
Just like people, pets are at risk for dental problems that can cause pain and serious health issues. Did you know that poor oral health can cause heart, liver and kidney problems for your pet? Oral disease is the most prevalent pet health problem and affects nearly 80% of dogs and cats over the age of three, according to the American Veterinary Dental Society. Common signs of oral disease include: bad breath; yellow-brown crust on teeth; red or bleeding gums; change in eating or chewing habits; loose, chipped, broken or missing teeth; pawing at the face or mouth; drooling; change in behavior; and depression. Prevention and treatment start with a dental exam, and may include a professional dental cleaning under carefully monitored anesthesia. We’ll also provide antibiotics and pain medications if needed. By reducing the risk of periodontal disease, your pets can live longer and healthier lives. Call us today to make an appointment; your pet is counting on you for dental care to stay healthy and happy!
Pet Walk 2009
Thanks to all our generous clients and corporate sponsors who helped Dr. Bishop to raise over $1400 for the Hinsdale Humane Society's 20th Annual Pet Walk. In addition to being pet walk participants and volunteers, the doctors at WillowGrove Pet Clinic were proud to be a "Grand Champion" sponsor of the event.
The Hinsdale Humane Society is a nonprofit organization that relies heavily on this fundraising event. Without pet walk pledges and other private donations, they would be unable to offer food, shelter, and adoption services to the hundreds of animals that come through their doors each year.
The Pet Walk is just one of the many ways we support this exceptional organization. On a weekly basis, both Dr. Bishop and Dr. LoPiccolo volunteer at the shelter by providing physical exams and developing therapeutic plans for all the ill animals in the shelter population and foster homes. In addition to offering our time and talent at the shelter, we also perform surgeries, administer vaccines, and dispense needed medications for shelter animals at our clinic.
We thank you for being part of our clinic community dedicated to improving health and saving lives of animals in need.
Top Vets for Your Pets
WillowGrove Pet Clinic received recognition in the Summer/Fall 2008 issue of Chicago Consumer's CHECKBOOK Magazine as one of the Top Vets for Your Pets in Dupage County. We received the CHECKBOOK’s top rating for quality when compared to 220 Chicago area veterinarians, for scoring highest on a system they devised to evaluate the veterinary service field.
CHECKBOOK magazine surveyed Chicago CHECKBOOK and Consumer Reports subscribers and asked them to rate the vets they had used on variable aspects of care and service. 82% of our practice’s customers surveyed rated us as “superior” for apparent competence and thoroughness, and giving prevention and self-help advice. More than 90% of customers surveyed rated us as “superior” for arranging to see you quickly, giving helpful advice by phone, maintaining a pleasant office and staff, and spending enough time with you. 100% of our practice’s customers surveyed rated us as “superior” for listening to you, keeping down waiting time, and overall care and advice.
We are pleased to receive such high marks, and encourage all our clients to complete a client satisfaction survey available on this website, so we can continue to strive to meet your needs.

TREATMENT AND PREVENTION
Ticks, as with fleas, are irritating little insects that prey on dogs. Their goal in life is to find a warm-blooded creature so that they can feed. Veterinarians and pet owners have been battling these tiny parasites for decades and the war continues.
