I like em 7 will be returning
After reading all the reviews, I took my two Coton De Tulear's to the doctor for basic immunizations today. I realized it was a family owned and run business, some bickering went on in office, true, not appropriate under most circumstances, but who cares. They charged exactly what was quoted, most vets try to sell,sell, sell more shots, meds, etc. They have the the shots that do not include the Lepto, which many dogs will have bad reactions to (do your research). I will be returning in October to have my boys teeth cleaned, I will follow up on the outcome of that.

BAD VET PRACTICE! by Stacey A. at InsiderPages
My cat had an eye infection so I took him to Delta Animal Hospital for the first time. The place smelled horrible and was obviously filthy. The vet said my cat's eyes and ears needed to be flushed out but would not let me stay in the room while he cleaned them. He gave me medication for my cat's eyes, which so far does not appear to be helping. On top of all that, he charged me twice as much as my old vet would have. Needless to say, from now on I'll go back to my old vet which is now out of the way but worth taking my cats there so their health is well looked after.
PROS:
CONS: BAD, UNSANITARY AND EXPENSIVE

Ear crop, tail docked, dew claw removal
My wife and I took our Doberman Pinscher to Dr. Luka to have a series of procedures performed after Dr. Luka guaranteed me an amazing price over the phone. We arrived as soon as they opened on Friday morning, and the place looked clean and smelled fresh. The doctors kept in contact with us throughout her stay to keep us updated on her condition throughout and after surgery, which was greatly appreciated. The next morning, we picked her up around noon. There were several other dogs either in surgery or in the kennels, and we did notice a smell only because the kennels are right next to everything. It's in the city though, so what do you expect? Our dog looks unbelievable. Surprisingly, when we picked her up, she didn't seem upset or distraught about her stay overnight, which is more than I can say for other places I've taken other animals to. The doctor gave us clear instructions on the proper care and maintenance of her incisions, and offered us deworming and recommended special vitamins for our dog's diet, at a better price than pet store's mind you, however we weren't interested and simply said "No, thank you", to which the doctor replied, "OK". Very nice people. Overall, we couldn't have been happier with our experience with Dr. Luka. The final results of her surgery will be revealed in a few months, but from the looks of it, everything looks perfect, even before it's beginning to heal. I would most certainly recommend Dr. Luka to anyone looking for a good surgeon, who doesn't charge out the rear for simple procedures, this is your doctor. Some of the places we got quotes from, actually quoted us as much as $500-$1000 more than what Dr. Luka performed for all 3 procedures.

The WORST vet in chicago
ZERO STARS! this place is HORRIFIC. I called earlier today to ask about getting some vaccination records faxed over, and the phone conversation i had was so rude and unprofessional i couldnt even belive that I was speaking to a real buisness. They answered the phone "Hello? ....yea what do you want." I asked for the records and was told that whoever I was speaking to didn't have the authority to use the fax machine. (what?????) I then asked to speak to someone who COULD use the fax, and was told whoever that was couldn't be there until next monday (this was a tuesday.) The rude, incompetent person then tried to tell me that the dogs didnt need the vaccinations i was asking for (because "They already got da pillz. they dont need shotz they already on the heartgaurd pillz") The fact that they dont heartworm test is a potentially fatal practice. I asked to speak to a manager, and he put me on the line with a veternarian who questioned why i even cared about a dogs vaccinations, and told me that the facility dosent even OWN a fax machine. I asked him his name, he got angry, and started screaming at me until i hung up. It was horrible. Anyone who takes their dog here has GOT to be crazy. How are they in buisness????

ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK
I recently received a dog that Dr. Luka did a health certificate for. The dog in question was a clear case of NEGLECT. He is a 70 pound dog and was gone from me for 6 months. In that time the dog lost 18 pounds and Dr. Luka of Delta Animal felt that this emaciated dog was safe to travel in temperatures of 25%. When called and questioned, he just attempted to rush me off the phone with no care what-so-ever for the dogs condition.

Don't let the smell fool you
Yes it smells ripe and is not a modern glitzy vet office but I have been going to Delta for 15 years or more and have been always more than satisfied. My dog had a problem and I felt like the technology was not right to correct the issue. Went to another vet, got piles of medication, and a large bill but the problem did not go away. I went back to Delta and tried their simple, home remedy and the problem cleared up in a matter of days. When my dog was at the end of it's life they were honest and forthright. I again did not believe them and went to another vet. They said 'no worries', and charged me lots of money and gave me lots of pills. Delta was again right. The guy knows his stuff, is always available, fairly priced, and as honest as is humanly possible. My new dog is his patient and I have no hesitations about recommending Delta to anyone.
