This ensures efficient, coordinated, and compassionate care for your pet. 
We offer class 4 laser therapy for pets to reduce pain and support healing without invasive treatment or medication side effects.

We utilize advanced radiosurgery techniques to reduce bleeding and tissue trauma, and we conduct pre-surgical blood testing to enhance safety.

Pet Dermatology is a specialized veterinary service focused on diagnosing and managing skin diseases in pets. We recognize the skin as a vital protective barrier against infections and environmental threats. Our clinic provides care for cats and dogs, offering thorough evaluation, accurate diagnosis, and long-term treatment plans tailored to each patient’s condition and needs. 
We provide pet vaccination services as a cornerstone of preventive care for maintaining overall animal health. Vaccines help protect pets from serious infectious diseases, including rabies, distemper, hepatitis, and parvovirus. Our veterinarians assess each pet’s condition and recommend appropriate timing, especially for young animals, to ensure safe and effective immunization. We also emphasize proper evaluation before administration. 
Dental health plays a critical role in a pet’s overall well-being, as untreated issues can lead to discomfort and more serious conditions. At our facility in Aurora, Illinois, we deliver advanced dental services with modern equipment and skilled veterinary professionals. Our approach includes thorough dental cleaning, scaling to remove plaque and tartar, and polishing to support long-term oral hygiene. Early detection allows us to reduce the need for more complex and costly treatments later.

I took my elderly chihuahua here for dental issues. Dr. Rebala was very kind and helpful. She explained everything in great detail and professionalism. She recommended dental surgery. I was very shocked how cheap it was. I was treated kindly by the staff and I felt my dog was in good hands. I highly recommend this veterinary hospital. I am very pleased!!

I am very grateful for the care they provided for my beloved sweet girl. Dr Rebala is very caring. The staff and Dr Rebala were also very compassionate and supportive during our difficult moment. They took my sweet baby in right before Christmas and truly went out of their way to find the prognosis quickly and were able to start some fluids treatment right away. Dr Rebala was honest with us. We had to make the very difficult decision to let our baby go to heaven and they allowed us a room with as long as we needed to say our final goodbye. I truly appreciate the care you provided for us. I will be bringing my cats here in the future. We felt very welcomed. Thanks from the bottom of our hearts.

Dr Rebala SAVED my baby!
This clinic was able to fit me into their very busy schedule to see my Kitty for an emergency visit and they were so quick, compassionate, and caring! I have a VERY spicy cat but they still worked with me and her to get her the help she needs! They performed an emergency procedure she needed to save her life! The staff is so incredibly helpful, friendly and the communication is so great! I cannot thank Dr. Rebala enough! You can tell when a person is truly compassionate about their jobs and have a genuine love for animal, and that’s definitely Dr. Rebala! She is soooo amazing and I definitely will be recommending this clinic to my friends and family!

Last week we had to make the most difficult decision of letting our fur baby (French bulldog) Cookie go due to some unexpected health issues. Dr. Rebala and her staff were incredibly compassionate and supportive during the process. They gave us plenty of time to say goodbye and allow us to take all the time we needed with Cookie before we finally had to part ways. Their cremation prices and packages are very reasonable and allowed us to bring Cookie’s ashes in a beautiful urn and her paw print home with us a week later. Today we receive such a thoughtful written note in the mail from Dr. Rebala and her staff expressing their condolences and love towards our family for our loss and it just warmed our heart. I’m extremely thankful for their support through this difficult time ❤️

Our cat passed away yesterday. You and your staff were so kind and thoughtful. You helped during a really difficult time, and made it a bit more bearable. Thank you so much for being so thoughtful, kind and compassionate not only to me but Gable as well. You definitely went above and beyond for us.
I can’t recommend this practice enough. The best!

BEST. VET. EVER. She’s matter-of-fact and kind. Brilliant human with a true love of animals. Pricing is great, scheduling is easy. Dr. Rebala makes plans like both a doctor and a pet owner so that the animal isn’t going through unnecessary procedures and you’re not wasting time/money. I’ve been a dog owner for over 25 years and Dr. Rebala is far and away the best vet I’ve ever gone to, hands down.

Our 1-year-old English bulldog got spayed at another hospital and not only did they take her sutures out early but they also did a messy job. Called Sunshine as a plea to see if they could assist and take a look at her and not only did they take us in on the same day but also did an emergency surgery on her right then and there. The staff and Doctor were so knowledgeable and kind, we could not be more thankful.

I just had the final experience with my dog (friend) and had to say goodbye. Dr. Rebala and her staff made this very painful experience as easy as possible. They showed their concern for my pet’s comfort and my feelings at the same time. I thank them for that. Her prior visits were thorough and showed much concern for her health. I’m sure you will also find that the costs are more reasonable.
