As the first animal clinic in the Darien community, Darien Animal Clinic has been providing full service small animal veterinary care for over 30 years. Darien Animal Clinic is an accredited American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) facility since 1989. Approximately 15 percent of the small animal veterinary hospitals in the United States and Canada are accredited AAHA members.

Which means we use calming techniques to reduce anxiety and create positive experiences for all pets in our animal hospital. Darien Animal Clinic believes that this time is so important to the long term health of your pet we set aside an entire 30 minutes with a doctor. This allows our doctors to ensure that every question and concern is covered.

Growing up in Clarendon Hills, Dr. Morris from an early age wanted to pursue a life involving animals. Graduating from University of Illinois College of Veterinary School allowed him to pursue that goal. Practicing in several suburban communities before settling essentially in his backyard, he has spent most of his professional career at Darien Animal Clinic.
For your protection, and that of others, all dogs must be on a leash and properly controlled while in the waiting area or exam rooms.

We took our kitten in for her first shots after my daughter-in-law took two of her litter mates in for theirs. Great people and our kitten even had her nails clipped. Will be going back in 3 weeks. Great experience.

I've been using the Darien Animal Clinic for the last 20+ years. i have never had a bad experience. During this last visit my Cocker Spaniel had hurt her back and hind paw. They were able to get her in to see the doctor within a couple hours. They were very compassionate and professional. They deliver great care every time. A little pricey but great. I would highly recommend them.

Front desk staff was patient and caring while I was setting up my first appointment. So appreciate vet (Dr. Gustafson) and tech taking the time to cover all the bases with my elderly dog Gizmo and I, especially considering it was an appointment at the end of the day! THANK YOU!

Just moved to the area and our little guy got sick. We have a vet we love but needed to get our guy in asap. The Dr. and vet tech did an amazing job listening to the concerns we had for our little guy and taking care of him so well! Highly recommend this Vet if needing a good one you can trust with your fur babies!

I use to bring my dogs to Downers Grove Animal Clinic but they went corporate, got very expensive and seemed to order a lot of unnecessary services my dogs didn't need. One of their former doctors had moved to Darien Animal Clinic and we tried there. I am forever grateful we did. When I make an appointment with Darien Animal Clinic I know that, even if my usual doctor isn't available when I need to bring my dog in, they will receive the same vigilant and professional care from anyone on the clinics staff. I've been bringing my dogs to Dr. "Gus" for over 25 years. We have moved to Glendale Heights
