We went in with concerns of oral cancer and came out reassured
Wow! Dr. Juriga is wonderful. There are area rugs in the exam rooms and he hopped down on the floor with our dog Dolly. He was very thorough and answered all our questions. The assistants were friendly and efficient. The facilities are extremely well designed and comfortable/homey. We went in with concerns of oral cancer and came out reassured.

The experience has been good
The experience has been good. We are only in the first week. We change the band for the first time this week, but I am sure it will be fine. I check it morning and night so my pup, Kenna, is getting used to me putting my hands in her mouth. I worked with Laura at the clinic and she has been absolutely great.

I would not hesitate to go back!!
The staff, Megan and Dr. Juriga were amazing with our dog, who is like our baby!! I would highly recommend them for any teeth pulling/cleaning!! They took their time with us and let us stay with our “baby” until they were truly ready for her!! Thank you so much!! Hopefully we won’t need them again but I would not hesitate to go back!!

Our giant schnauzer’s dental day was a breeze
We have been very pleased with Dr. Juriga and his entire staff. We have the utmost confidence in Dr. Juriga. Our giant schnauzer, Siegmund’s dental day was a breeze. Sieg came home a bit tired but the next day he was back to his impish self. Dr. Juriga is a kind and compassionate veterinary specialist. We would highly recommend the Veterinary Dental Center to anyone, in fact, we already have done so. 5 STARS!

Dr. Sasser put me at ease
I felt very welcome here. Dr. Sasser and staff took excellent care for my dog Tori. He had his teeth xrayed and cleaned. I was afraid to have him put under for anesthesia but the staff and Dr. Sasser put me at ease and told me they do this all the time for dogs that have health problems and they are fine. Tori's teeth looked great and everything was good. Thank you for the best care.

He explained what they were going to do and how they were going to to it
We took our little dog Copper to have all his bad bad teeth removed. They were full of infection and needed to be pulled. We had just adopted him. If his teeth weren't removed, he could have died. Dr. Juriga was very thorough with the exam. He explained what they were going to do and how they were going to to it. He explained the price involed up front. We knew we needed to go ahead and let him pull his teeth. His jaw was also broken due to his bad teeth. The doctor was so caring and understanding. The staff that worked with him on the surgery were very kind and caring also. He did a great job. Now Copper can live the rest of his life wiithout infection of the mouth. Great job Dr. Juriga!!!!

I like being there for my critters. All the techs, those participating in the procedure and those who weren't but getting some queries from me, are dedicated in what they do - some going above and beyond what you would expect. The facility is very clean and surgery observation friendly. Would recommend them any day of the week.

This is an exceptional practice
Dr. Juriga and his superb staff have been key components of the healthcare of 3 of our dogs over the span of 13 years. Dr. Juriga excells in all areas--expertise, compassion, and exceptional communication. He has continued to surround himself with qualified professionals who embody the same qualities. We have experienced a variety of services, some routine and others more specialized, with clear and complete explanations and positive results. This is an exceptional practice and we feel fortunate that it is available for our dogs.

This was our first time here, my Dog's Vet had recommended us. My Dog had some serious issues with his teeth being eaten away from Resorptive issues. The entire staff made us feel comfortable and everyone was so kind and compassionate. Also the entire facility was so clean and nice looking. I felt comfortable that my Dog was going to be in good hands with such a tough surgery.

It is obvious the staff really love what they do
During a routine teeth cleaning, our primary vet discovered a "mass", and recommended the Veterinary Dental Center as the best place to seek more specialized care. Called for a consult, and got in very quickly. Dr. Sasser & the entire staff were professional & kind. Everyone we interacted with was compassionate, took great pains to explain every step with details & why it was being recommended. I am extremely happy to say the mass was diagnosed as benign. I highly recommend the Veterinary Dental Center, as it is obvious the staff really love what they do, and put your pets' well-being above all else.

I highly recommend this hospital and I was very pleased with everything. Dr. Juriga is friendly, knowledgeable and took a lot of time to explain and outline the condition and treatment of my cat's condition. My cat is having oral surgery and I know that we are in very good hands.

Dr. Juriga .... Well don't even know where to start. I guess integrity, honesty and a truly concerned doctor would be where I would start. Our dog Moose was sick with a possible tooth infection, cancer etc. Dr. Juriga went above and beyond in my opinion. This is the doctor I would I trust my pet with, without any doubt. It's not just about the money it's about the care your pet is receiving. Dr. Juriga.... my wife, myself and Moose thank you!!

Dr. Juriga was very thoughtful and considerate of my dog Sonee's circumstances. I drove a long distance and the drive was absolutely worth it. Dr Juriga was very generous with his time and was very thorough when explaining what needed to be done. Alexandra and the entire staff are excellent and they truly care about taking good care of your pet. Dr. Juriga and Alexandra worked very hard to accommodate Sonee's needs and the distance that we traveled. Verena assisted Dr Juriga and she was very kind and was excellent at taking care of Sonee and keeping me updated during the procedure. I would highly recommend Dr. Juriga and Veterinary Dental Center.

We were on our way home within five hours
Dr. Sasser met with us after evaluating our Lab, Charlie. Our vet thought he was a candidate for a root canal. However, because of Charlies's age (9) he just needed to have the molar pulled. Since we came from a distance, we were advised to be there early for the evaluation, Charlie then had the procedure and we were on our way home within five hours. It was a very positive experience.

We love Dr. Juriga!
He is so nice for one but mostly its because he really loves and cares for the animals. We have a beautiful blue heeler named Ruby who unfortunately was born with a very bad top overbite or a very small underbite whichever. This would have been very painful for Ruby as she grew. Dr. Juriga took the time to help us understand the importance of having dental work done to Ruby so she would and could live a good and healthy life. We worked together and she is now doing great!!

Our experience at the Veterinary Dental Center was great! I was so nervous about putting my 15 year old Dachshund under anesthesia but Dr. Juriga and the entire staff took a lot of time to explain everything to us and we were allowed to stay with our dog right up until the procedure began and almost immediately afterward so he was less nervous as well. I felt so much better having his teeth done by a specialist. The procedure went very well and he recovered very quickly!

If you want the best you will go to Veterinary Dental Center
I have been seeing Dr. Juriga for many years. Without his expertise and his team's care, my dog probably wouldn't have even survived dental surgery. Just recently a person asked on the nextdoor site where to take their dog for an extraction. Well, there is only one place I know. So, I wrote: If you want the best, you will go to Dr. Juriga, Veterinary Dental Center, in Oswego. Easy drive. Worth the drive. He provides dental care to Brookfield Zoo. You can even watch. Teeth is all he does. Dr. Juriga has done wonders for my dog and my friends' dogs. Many vets refer their clients to Dr. Juriga. If you have an older dog or a dog with medical issues, you can feel confident that the best meds will be used for that particular issue. When looking into extractions, etc., you really should take your dog to a doctor that specializes in teeth ONLY. Once you go here, you will be the happiest pet parent. Your dog will thank you. I truly feel blessed to be a client.

I’m amazed at how active and resilient Butcher is after having fractured jaw surgery
Everyone who was involved in the process of receiving, treating, explaining and post-op review - for my French Bulldog Butcher after his tragic vehicle impact - was caring, patient, competent and professional. I was able to feel at ease even during the critical hours after the accident. Fast forward about a week and I'm amazed at how active and resilient Butcher is after having fractured jaw surgery. He's on his way to full recovery thanks to Dr. Juriga and his team at VDC - I could not have asked for better emergency care for my little buddy.

We can’t recommend your clinic enough!!
Spooky was referred to you by Dr. Sage of Animal House Veterinary Clinic in St. Charles. Dr. Sage did everything he could to reconstruct Spooky's mouth. He referred us to Dr. Juriga. Dr. Juriga was amazing! He looked at Spooky, gave us the information about the surgery. After the surgery, he gave us a synopsis of all the work he had done. He had taken some biopsies also. Dr. Juriga personally called us to give us the results. We are extremely happy with the work he and his team have done. After a long 8 months, our Spooky is on the road to healing! Thank you! We can't recommend your clinic enough!!

I am a veterinarian and I took my dog to Dr. Juriga
I am a veterinarian and I took my dog to Dr. Juriga for a root canal and crown. My dog had an unusual reaction to the anesthesia, and because they were properly monitoring him, they noticed the problem and corrected it quickly, and my dog made it through and is doing great. I shudder to think what could have happened if a different vet hospital didn't monitor him under anesthesia properly. I am so grateful for their excellent care for my dog, and being a veterinarian, I know how to judge a good hospital vs a bad hospital, and this is a GREAT hospital!

Excellent care and education
Our breed of dog is anesthesia sensitive and they took my concerns very seriously. They cultured a non healing from Oct 2018 to Apr 2019 lip fold sore per my request and sent the results immediately to our Vet. Finally the correct medication and our dog is almost healed. He is a service dog that can not afford to be off work for months with infection or a painful mouth. His gums and teeth are healing well ! They are very conscientious; he had one vomiting episode they responded to my concern immediately!!! We will be taking our other dog for teeth in a few months.

There’s also large glass windows available should you decide you’d like to personally look in on your baby
We have been seeing Dr. Juriga and Verena for many, many years. They have taken care of several of our "best friends" (our dogs). We have had bracychaephalic dogs and I was always worried about any kind of anesthesia for them. From the moment I met Dr. Juriga, I knew we were in good hands. He is thorough in explaining anything and everything that is going to happen while your pet is in their care. Which, by the way, is the very best of dental care that any pet could EVER receive anywhere by anyone - HANDS DOWN! Dr. Juriga is outstanding in his field as is his team. Verena has always taken such good care of my babies as though they were hers. It means so much to us to have such kind, compassionate, caring individuals looking after our pets. But most important is how extraordinarily knowledgeable they all are. And, they keep you up-do-date periodically on what's going on with your pet while their procedure is underway. There's also large glass windows available should you decide you'd like to personally look in on your baby. I thought this was an exceptionally nice feature (unless you are squeamish!). I felt as though there was nothing to hide. As I watched, it was comforting to see how, combined with all the surgical expertise and duties going on, everyone STILL handled my dog with a sort of "love" and tenderness and caring.
We live almost an hour away from Dr. Juriga's office, but all things taken into consideration, I'd drive 100 miles or more just to see him. His knowledge and surgical expertise? You can't put a price on that!!!

The entire experience was excellent
From the first moment I entered the center I was treated with a friendly and professional staff. Laura was extremely helpful in preparing me with what I would encounter through the process. Dr. Juriga was outstanding in explaining the procedure and assuring me of a positive outcome. He is incredibly skilled as I saw how well Rigatoni recovered. Megan was thorough in discharging him. I have nothing but to say the entire experience was excellent.

The staff is very caring, patient and professional
Dr. Juriga is great at explaining step by step the procedures involved in surgery. He is willing to answer questions and take time to help the "humans" understand the proposed treatment. Because of his specialty in dental procedures, he proposed several treatments that were backed up by good medical research and experience. We would highly recommend him.

I would totally recommend others
I was referred to this dental clinic from Banfield. Upon my arrival they were very welcoming and supportive. The facility was very comfortable and accommodating. It didn't really feel like an animal clinic at all which was surprising and even more welcoming than the usual animal clinics. Both the assistants and doctors were patient and were very hands-on with both my dogs. They took their time and explained the issues that my dogs were having and how they can help. What I found most thoughtful was their concern after my dog had his procedure. They called and checked-in with me and answered all my questions and concerns. Overall, my experience there was great. I would totally recommend others to this animal clinic.

Dr. Juriga spent plenty of time going over things with us
When you first walk in the reception area is in the center of the waiting area. They have seating some partitioned around the reception area which is nice to keep pets separated. I was very impressed with this, being able to keep my cat away from large dogs is a plus. Unfortunately, my cat had to have all his teeth removed... (which turned out to be the best thing and my cat is much happier now). Received excellent before and aftercare and Dr. Juriga spent plenty of time going over things with us. Even when my cat needed some extra treatment, they never made me seem like I was inconveniencing them.

I could not be more pleased with the service and care of my dog! I have been to many veterinarians and clinics in the 10 years of my dog's life and I would rate this one the very best. I was confident with the doctors care. Their explanations of my dog's problems were very thorough and satisfying. Our dog's recovery time was much better than with previous veterinarians. I would rate this clinic five stars out of four, which I never have done before. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.

I am so impressed with the thorough packet of information I was given including pictures of everything they did during the procedure
My dog Mack got injured and his canine tooth was protruding out of his mouth. I was given an appointment right away to see Dr. Sasser. Megan, the vet tech, was so thorough in her explanation of the process which was followed up by an even more thorough explanation of all that would be done to fix the situation by Dr. Sasser. Leaving Mack behind was a concern for me but they assured me everything would be fine and that I could come back any time and hang out at the clinic, that I could even come and watch at the windows to the surgery suite. Everything they were telling me was so comforting and so thorough. When I left, that is when I thought of the million or so questions I wanted to ask but couldn't think of when I was there. No problem!!! When I talked with them later, they answered all of my questions and never once made me feel like they were dumb questions.
When I picked Mack up after his procedure, he was happy and seemed quite thrilled with his new best friend, Megan. I am so impressed also with the thorough packet of information I was given including pictures of everything they did during the procedure. Megan went through all of it so well until she was absolutely certain I had no more questions.
I can not recommend this facility any more highly! The staff is wonderful. Thank you all so much.

Her appetite is back and she’s spunky again
I noticed a loose tooth when brushing my almost 14 year old Yorkie, Mia’s teeth. I was referred to Veterinary Dental Center by my vet. Mia had to have most of her teeth removed. She has 8 teeth left and her appetite is back and she’s spunky again. I feel bad that I didn’t notice the problem earlier. She received great care and I would highly recommend your clinic. Thank you very much!

Thank you for the great care you had for Lucy
I was referred to this office by my Vet for a dental consultation for my senior dog who my vet suspected was having some undying issues that needed more specialized help. She ended up having to have 5 teeth extracted. I was impressed by the caring staff, the knowledge of the doctor and how quickly Lucy recovered after the procedure.
I was very touched when the tech brought Lucy out to my car cradled in her arms even though she is a small German Shepherd. My only complaint is that I wanted to pay with Care Credit since the bill was almost 2,000 dollars and they would only give me 6 month of free financing. I felt that 6 months was not a lot of time to pay for such a large bill. I would have liked to have had the 12 months to pay and this would have lessened the financial load for me.
Maybe you might consider increasing the free financing for some of these larger bills. It would have made things much easier for me financially in these upcoming months. Thank you for the great care you had for Lucy though. I am grateful!

Thank you for taking such good care of him, and keeping his smile beautiful!
Our labradoodle, Cooper, was enjoying the lake this summer and somehow broke a lower canine. While out of town, we called to make an appointment. Everyone was so kind and helpful from the beginning. We were concerned that a vet would just pull the tooth. However, Cooper had a root canal and composite to preserve his tooth. Cooper is one of our children :) Thank you for taking such good care of him, and keeping his smile beautiful!

VDC's communication was excellent, they listened to my concerns and incorporated them into the decisions about treatment, and the staff gave my dog the rockstar care he deserved. The hospital was clean and staff were friendly. I have insanely high standards and am a total mama bear when it comes to my puppy, but these guys did a fantastic job. Having seen other dental specialists, all I can say is that I'm really glad I finally found Dr Juriga and his team.

Everyone was caring and compassionate and put our mind at ease
Our poodle we adopted had extensive dental disease and needed many teeth removed. I was a nervous wreck for our 4.5 lb dog to have this type of surgery. However, from the moment we stepped in the door, everyone was caring and compassionate and put our mind at ease. I knew after meeting Dr. Juriga that our Toby would be in great hands. They gave us fantastic instructions for the night before as well as extensive post-surgical instructions and pain medicine. Our dog did extremely well and we consider the extensive surgery a huge success. To anyone who is scared or concerned about the procedure, this team is top notch and I recommend them without hesitation. Dr. Juriga gave me his cell phone in the event my dog had any issues with his recovery. I've never had a veterinary practice come anywhere close to the level of care we received.

These people obviously care about the pets & their owners
We live in Chicago, and when our 7-year-old Chihuahua's face started swelling, we went straight to our vet. The verdict was a fractured tooth and infection, so they referred us to Dr. Juriga in Oswego, and we are so happy they did! I called them at 8pm on a Thursday, and they got us in at 8am the next morning (despite having a full day of back-to-back patients!).
After an examination, Dr. Juriga and his team sat down with us to go over exactly what was going on with our pup's dental issues, why things cost what they did, and what to expect during and after surgery. Dr. Juriga has exceptional qualifications including serving on the Medical Advisory Board at the Shedd Aquarium and Brookfield Zoo, as well as providing dental services at Brookfield Zoo.
From the moment we walked in to the time we left, we felt as though our baby was in the best hands. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a well qualified, thorough and kind dental specialist - at River Heights / Veterinary Dental Center, they know their trade! On a side note, the compassion is shown in the details: they offer a Keurig cup of coffee while you're waiting; they have a map of the area ready for you with shopping destinations highlighted; they give you a $5 coupon for a local coffee shop and the post-op rooms look more like mini-lounges with chairs and couches. These people obviously care about the pets AND their owners! 5 stars hands down!

I feel so fortunate to have this practice located in an area
I brought my sheltie puppy Frankie here for braces when he began to develop a lance canine. I couldn’t have been more pleased with Dr. Juriga and his staff. The administrative staff was always friendly and helpful when I need to make an appointment and during the check in/check out process. In connection with the procedure itself, Dr. Juriga and his colleagues and assistants always took the time to explain what was being done and their finding. One thing that I had to do was change Frankie’s elastic every 10 days. A couple of times I had problems with this so I had to bring him in to get some help. They were always very accommodating and didn’t charge extra for this service. I feel so fortunate to have this practice located in an area that I can get to when I need them.

Today her appetite is back 100 percent if not even better than before surgery
As the trusted caregiver (some call me mom) of a smart, small and very loving kitty named Swee'Pea, her health is top on my list of life's necessities. When I noticed she wasn't responding to her food as she normally would I knew it was time to make a trip to the dentist. There is NOWHERE else for us to go but to Veterinary Dental Center (inside River Heights Veterinary). The simple answer is, because they take the same care and devotion to their charges as I would if I was capable of doing it. Swee'Pea was treated with attention and professionalism that I would expect from my own health care providers. Everyone there did all they could to make BOTH of us feel safe and comfortable. My little girl was in need of major extractions due to genetic troubles (reabsorption of her teeth). All of my questions were answered in language I could understand, and our visit didn't end until there were no more questions and all after care was fully discussed and I was comfortable in going home.
Today her appetite is back 100 percent if not even better than before surgery, since she no longer fears her food bowl or the pain she experienced trying to eat. I can't express our gratitude and thanks for all that was done for our health and happiness. Sincerely, Swee'Pea and Maura C.

I am deeply grateful
Verena and Dr Juriga spent a great deal of time with us to ensure they were taking all necessary precautions to consider our dog's pre existing health conditions before putting him under anesthesia. They were kind, patient, and thorough. Working with them, and working in an environment where the staff are clearly happy, and where I could watch the procedure if I wanted to, greatly reduced my stress level, and probably my dog's stress level as well. I am deeply grateful that we were able to work with you, and would return in a heartbeat, even though it's a 2-hour drive. Thank you!

Now I go to him every year and I’m never nervous dropping them off
If anyone is looking for a good dentist to take their small dogs I highly recommend Dr. Stephen Juriga in Oswego. I get really nervous with taking my dogs to get their teeth cleaned and did tons of research on different vets before bringing my dogs. I found a vet in Lisle that warmed the iv fluid, took x-rays, had continuous fluids. My dog Missy that only weighs 4.5 ponds struggled under anesthesia. Her blood pressure and temperature kept dropping regardless of all the warm towels they provided.
Luckily the vet stopped the cleaning and recommended we go to a specialist Dr. Jeriga, he was wonderful. They have a machine that continuously pumps warm water around their bodies and barely gives anesthesia so they are more in a twilight. If they need teeth pulled they do a nerve block which helps with the pain. Now I go to him every year and I'm never nervous dropping them off. Sorry for the long post I just wanted to share in case anyone is as paranoid as me.

It was 100% worth the cost
If you're looking at this vet because you want the best for your pet's teeth cleaning, look no more! I called my local vet about teeth cleaning, and they said it was $100 total - anesthesia and all. I'm glad I thought that sounded too good to be true and decided to find a better option. Dr. Juriga is about 45 minutes from where I live, but it's easily worth the drive. He felt like the obvious choice.
I recently had my chihuahua's teeth cleaned, and it was everything I hoping for! Dr. Juriga really makes you comfortable about handing over your beloved pet even knowing there will be anesthesia and potential teeth pulling. I was very nervous about my chihuahua, Lola, losing too many teeth and not being able to enjoy bully sticks anymore. Dr. Juriga said he would salvage (even bone grafting was an option) whatever he could before considering removal, especially with any important teeth.
Luckily only six teeth were pulled, and it was clear they were all necessary. Still, he took the time to go over the x-rays and explain each one. She was given a shot for pain right after the procedure, Rimadyl tablets for the following few days, and antibiotics for a week just to be safe. The estimate I was given was the price range I was expected for such thorough care. The final cost was double the estimate due to the extra cost of removing teeth and prolonged anesthesia. It wasn't really that much of a surprise, and I still feel it was 100% worth the cost. I have zero regrets about going to Dr. Juriga, and I will do it again in the future if needed.

Sunshine’s teeth have never been so clean
Fantastic surgeon and staff! Sunshine’s teeth have never been so clean. We felt extremely comfortable knowing that our dog was in Dr. Juriga’s expert hands. He has a well-deserved national reputation and I’ve heard he lectures at major meetings. The staff was very caring as well. Five stars all around!

I learned a lot
Very professional service and caring. I am very appreciative of the fact that they got my kitty in for dental extractions within a week of me contacting via e-mail. I learned a lot, never had heard of dental resorption or how serious it could be. I now pass along this information to friends & recommend that this is where you want to be seen if they have dental pet concerns. Staff was welcoming, knowledgeable & very considerate of my anxiety over this also! Facility spotless!

I’m so happy that Dr. Sasser was able to complete that root canal
My regular vet did a dental on my sweet adopted Aussie Shepard mix. 4 teeth had to be pulled and we learned more about how bad her over bite was. I was recommended to the Dental Center as my dog also needed a root canal on one of her lower canines. Because of her over bite, her lower teeth had formed pockets in her upper palate and it was noted to be pretty uncomfortable for her. I’m so happy that Dr. Sasser was able to complete that root canal and file down the lower teeth so they no longer were causing my dog that discomfort which must have been awful. The clinic was bright and cheery and all of the support staff I dealt with were thorough, knowledgeable and a pleasure to deal with.

We knew that our cat was in the best of hands
The doctors, technicians, and staff are outstanding! You can tell that they truly care about their patients. We knew that our cat was in the best of hands after the consultation, and that was reaffirmed after her surgery. We would recommend the Veterinary Dental Center to anyone who loves their pet as much as we do.

Scout is back to 100%!
Scout has gone through three training sessions focusing on aggression work since his dental work has been completed and he is doing great. We had no problems transitioning back to bite work. I appreciate everything Doctor Sasser and your team did to help bring Scout back to 100%. The photo is from one of our recent swim trainings where you can see the great work on his bottom crown.
