Happy Fourth of July! We will be closing at 4:00 pm on Friday July 3rd and reopening at 8:00 am on Monday July 6th. Have a happy and safe holiday.
We are saddened to hear of the loss of a colleague, mentor and fellow veterinarian Dr. Peter Sakas yesterday to the Covid virus. Dr. Sakas was a kind man and an extraordinary avian veterinarian at Niles Animal Hospital. Our hearts go out to his family and friends as well as the entire Niles Animal Hospital family. RIP Pete
We will start to shorten our hours of operation starting Tuesday March 24th continuing thru Tuesday April 7th. We will open up at 9 am and close at 5 pm Monday to Friday and 8 am to 12 noon on Saturday. If you already have an appointment scheduled outside of these hours please call us at 630-289-0900 to reschedule. If you are a member of the medical community or other essential business and need alternative arrangements please call to discuss and we will try to accommodate you. If you are picking up medication for your pets please be aware of the temporary hours of operation. Also please call the staff from the parking lot when you arrive, please do not walk in.
We will be able to start seeing appointments tomorrow Tuesday however we will have a very limited staff and will only be able to see a fraction of the number appointments and pets that we will usually see it in a day. Any pets with an appointment scheduled for tomorrow or Wednesday will be getting a call shortly to either confirm your appointment, to ask to you to move the time of your appointment, to ask you to change doctors for your appointment or be asked to reschedule. With having only a limited staff tomorrow and Wednesday we will not be able to handle a large call volume and ask you to call only if you absolutely need to speak with the doctor or schedule a sick pet. I thank you in advance for your understanding and I’m asking you to please be patient with the team. Over the next few days wait times both on the phone as well as pets coming into the clinic may be extended. we will not be letting any clients into the building we will be adhering to our strict curbside protocols.
