The Whole Pet

The Whole Pet is a veterinarian in Bartlett, IL. The practice offers complementary and integrative medicine for canine and feline companions, with care delivered through mobile appointments in the client's home. Services include chiropractic manipulation, acupuncture treatments, and herbal consultations, all available by appointment.

Dr. Susan Hites leads the practice, having graduated from veterinary school in 1992 from the University of Illinois. After working in general and exotic practice for 5 years, Dr. Hites began studying integrative and alternative options for patients in 1997. She is certified in animal chiropractic by the AVCA and certified in animal acupuncture by IVAS, and has completed hundreds of hours of additional training in Western herbal medicine, Eastern herbal medicine, food therapy options, and supplements. Because Dr. Hites does not perform routine health care such as wellness examinations, vaccinations, heartworm testing, lab work, surgery, radiographs, or advanced diagnostics, she works alongside the patient's primary veterinarian to determine the best path for each animal's health.

The practice sits on Illinois Route 59, about a quarter mile south of West Stearns Road. Beaver Pond Park is roughly half a mile away, with McAndrews Park about half a mile to the east.

The Whole Pet holds a rating of 4.40 out of 0 reviews. As a mobile integrative veterinary service serving the Bartlett area, the practice provides a focused alternative to traditional clinic-based care for pet owners seeking chiropractic, acupuncture, and herbal options for their dogs and cats.
