North Avenue Animal Hospital was founded in 1957 by the late Dr. Bohdan Tkaczuk and was located across the street from our present facility. Dr. Roman Tkaczuk joined his father in practice in 1983 and became owner in 1990 when his father retired. By that time, our practice had grown significantly and more space was needed.
Our goal at North Avenue Animal Hospital is to provide comprehensive and compassionate quality medical care for our patients and excellent service for our valued clients. We accomplish this by employing knowledgeable and friendly staff that uses the most current medical practices and resources to achieve the best possible care for our four-legged friends.
The annual for your dog or cat will not only help keep him or her healthy, but also will help us catch any problems early, before they become more serious. Whether you are new to having a puppy or kitten, or a seasoned veteran, our doctors will help you make the right choices for a lifetime of wellness for your new pets.
Our fully equipped diagnostic department offers a wide array of tools and procedures that provide more detailed information about your pet so that we can treat him or her in the quickest, most effective way possible. We use the most advanced digital imaging technology available for those times when an external veterinary exam isn't enough.

I have been taking our 3 dogs and several foster dogs to North Avenue for over 5 years. They will do everything they can to squeeze money out of you. They refused to assist us when we desperately needed a general antibiotic for our senior dog and we were 12 hours away and unable to get into the only veterinarian in the remote part of the US we were in. Once we were finally able to get back to Chicago they prescribed the exact same medication I asked for over the phone....SHOCKER. Meanwhile our dog had a painful ear infection (which she gets all the time) for two weeks without meds.

I went here for years; and for years they were serviceable as a vet. But when things started to really take a turn for my pets health wise, and that is when I began to realize how poor quality this vet is in both compassion and service. They are a money first and foremost vet, with little concern for the advice they are giving. My cat was having issues throwing up, and I reached out for advice. I never received a call back, I had to call a day later to hear that the doctor left a note. The vet recommended antacid. After the issue was determined by Medvet through ultrasound that it was in their

Update: While I am not happy with the particular encounter I described below, the hospital did reach out and offered a partial credit for the prescription. The fact they spent time to talk to me and do something about the situation shows to me they learned from this situation. Hopefully they make sure to communicate pricing and alternatives for medication sources to other patients during covid. I strongly believe getting medication at the lowest price is important for healthcare as it makes it more likely for everyone to be able to afford the care their pets need. So in light of what I just said

I took my newly adopted 1 yo shepherd mix to North Ave vet for her first visit. We were both very pleased with our visit! The space is really big and clean, and the staff is absolutely amazing! They all went out of their way to greet us, and give Brooke plenty of treats to make her comfortable. I will continue to bring her here (along with my senior cat).
