We want our patients to benefit from ALL that the highest level of veterinary medicine has to offer, not just what holistic medicine or traditional Western medicine can provide. We believe that integrative medicine offers the best tool, at the best time, for the health condition that is presented. And it offers the best options for wellness-focused care, too.At Knollwood Hospital for Pets, we would no more deprive you of the best that Western Medicine has to offer than we would neglect to tell you when acupuncture or chiropractic; laser therapy or homotoxicology; or even herbal therapy or a Bach Flower remedy would be in your pet's best interest.

Twenty-nine years ago, we were the first practice in the entire Chicago metropolitan area area to practice integrative wellness medicine. The first integrative practice in the country to be certified by the American Animal Hospital Association - at their highest level of accreditation, no less! And we're still the best, as well as the most knowledgeable.
Then, early in the course of your pet's care, our Doctors communicate a tentative diagnosis, their medical plans, and a tentative prognosis. If surgery or dental care is recommended, all aspects of the procedure, including resuscitation services and advanced directives, are explained to you, and are communicated to all members of our Surgery Team.

Dr. Mitchell has taken care of both my dogs, each with an ongoing medical issue. I trust her implicitly. She always takes the time to explain treatment options and to give reasons for her recommendations. Even during COVID while the clinic changed to curbside appointments, her phone calls to this pet parents in the parking lot continue to exude her affection for my dog while providing full information and answering all my questions. For 20+ years, Dr. Mitchell has always provided excellent care to my fur-family. Her staff is outstanding: professional and caring.

Knollwood Hospital for Pets was recommended through a greyhound group I was in. Every time I bring my guy in you can tell Dr. Mitchell really loves what she does. She will always talk to him and love on him first before we do any vet-talk. I find the services are affordable and she is reasonable with your needs and your pets needs, and they take their time.
If you are looking for lightning fast services and cheap care, this is not for you. If you want affordable, caring and realistic - you found your vet. They are truly doing the best.

I don't see Dr. Mitchell lasting long, she has become jaded. She is getting sloppy in the work she was once great at. A wonderful bunny died because she decided to give him a convenia injection, which it is not safe for bunnies, but off course she doesn't care, there's always an excuse. Either she is "short staffed", or had an "emergency" or someone came in for a recheck and had 20 other things "wrong".
It is never her fault and she will never take fault for anything. I hope people start thinking twice before taking their pet to this place. She doesn't deserve to be in this field anymore. I think she forgot the reason why she became a vet. It's sad

This vet was a 10/10 experience. Knollewood Hospital is affordable and yet gives you a service that is very detailed and high quality. I've taken my Shepard to previous vets at other places where they overcharged me ridiculous rates for just a check up but this vet is phenomenal and I feel would NEVER overcharge me. I appreciate the doctor following up with all her vitals and checking in detail every single organ and necessary part.
Since I have a strong background in anatomy and science I am very skeptic with who I trust with my baby girl and yet I feel very confident that I can trust this vet. Again affordable with 10/10 service. I will be bringing my baby back next time. Thanks Knollwood!

Dr. Mitchell and her team are amazing. Our 20 year old cat was Dr. Mitchell's patient for the past year. We can't thank Dr. Mitchell enough for giving us an extra year we thought we would never have with our beloved Alastair. It seemed fitting that she would be the one to put him to rest as a thank you for her amazing service to Alastair this past year. She stayed with us the entire time and never left our side. Thanks so much again Dr. Mitchell for everything!

LOVE Dr. Mitchell here! She is so nice, the people there are VERY friendly and very helpful! The wait is a bit long but that's ok. My bunnies didn't mind being there and were actually quite comfy, the prices were wonderful! We got an ear clean for my bun Bini and an injection and a general health exam for them. Dr. Mitchell is very experienced with rabbits and many other pets, I'm glad to have her. Thank you so much Dr. Mitchell! I'll see you again in 10 days for Nina!
