We are new to the area and did a search for a veterinary office with good reviews. We found Delavan Lakes Veterinary Clinic and decided to try them out. We are very, very pleased with the service we get and the compassion our two dogs receive. The staff is friendly and thorough and don't keep you waiting when it's time for your appointment. This is a good place for your hairy kids!

I have been with DLVC for over 10 years and love them ! I recently have to put my almost 15 year old husky down. Dr.Jens and the staff where wonderfully, They even made my 10 year niece a clay paw print and she loves it.

We’ve been taking our dog Chevey to Delavan Lakes Veterinary Clinic for several years. As a life-long pet owner, I’ve been exposed to a lot of different veterinary clinics. DLVC is by far the friendliest, cleanest, and most competent clinic I’ve known. Chevey is a very hyper dog and he gets nervous when I have to leave him at the clinic, especially for his grooming appointment! All the veterinarians and staff are terrific—so caring and compassionate. I trust the care he gets, and love that everyone treats him like he was their own beloved pet.

Almost a year ago Dr. Hartwig saved our 13-year Labrador’s life! For the prior 18 mos I’d repeatedly complained to our vet that something was wrong with our dog Mack. And I was repeatedly lectured about “old dog” issues. I also saw 2 more veterinarians in Illinois and was basically told the same thing. When I was fortunate enough to be referred to Dr. Christine (4th Vet) I again explained the symptoms I’d observed, she was quite different. She listened carefully, she asked questions. And then she repeated back to me the information to make certain she understood the progression of Mack’s ill health. After palpating and x-raying him she told us he had a very dangerous tumor that was inching quite near to his heart and he needed surgery, like immediately! I still had the “old dog” lecture stuck in my head and foolishly asked, “Couldn’t the surgery kill him”? She showed us the x-ray and how close the mass was to his heart and said the tumor will kill him. Mack did have very strong vital signs and she felt the surgery would not be the life threatening issue. The tumor was benign! Our Mack is going to be 14 years old this Sept! He has never been in better health. Delavan Lakes Veterinary Clinic is an amazing place. Mack has the best care on earth. His health is carefully monitored even while we were away from WI this winter. I was able to call into DLVC and speak with Brenda at the desk and she would connect me to the appropriate person if I needed to discuss Mack’s medications or to either Dr. Christine or her assistant Jessica to ask about problems Mack was experiencing due to the climate change. They kept an eye on Mack even though we had a vet in the new city. This is an excellent practice. They are 100% invested and on top of what needs to happen in order to take the best possible care of one’s pet. I am so grateful to have found them. I recommend them to everyone!

Dr. Hartwig and her caring staff gave a new lease on life to our aging border collie. Four years ago, Missy was having major hind leg issues, unable to get around well or navigate our stairs. We had pretty much given up hope. However, after careful assessment, Dr. Hartwig recommended surgery. Today Missy continues to 'bound up' the steps at the age of 14+. Thanks to the DLVC for continuing to take such professional and compassionate care of Missy and the rest of our 'family!'
