Reception
Once inside, you'll register at the reception desk. Lamor, Heather, or Kim will greet you.
After you check in, you will be led to our exam rooms. We are still curbside, but when the threat of COVID 19 has passed we can welcome you into our beautiful building again.

Our waiting room has plenty of space for you and your pet(s). You'll also find our crested gecko friends in their beautiful Zoo Med vivarium. The antique furniture belongs to Dr. Moy
Surgery
Chicago Exotics specializes in small animal and avian surgeries and has the right equipment for the job. For instance, did you know we have the equipment to perform surgery on fish?
Work Area, Ward 1, and Lab
This is often where we are with your pet when it comes in back to be weighed. Exams happen here along with pre-surgical work ups. We read our own fecals on the spot. The lab is fully equipped with CBC machines (we can read our own CBCs as well) along with advanced chemistry machines. The rabbit and rodent dental area is behind me in this picture. Surgical preparation area is just to the right of the upper right of this picture.
