Comments by Donna: Dr. Richard Nye...is not only a skilled and gifted veterinarian and surgeon, but he has a real soft spot in his heart for bunnies. He often refers to his big old Belgian hare who was his pet for years. In fact, Dr. Nye was featured on the cover of "Chicago Sports" magazine holding him...he was on the cover because before he went into veterinary medicine he was a pitcher for the Chicago Cubs.

Comments: Dr. Lullo is excellent and did her externship with Dr. Susan Brown.
She is the relief vet now since the birth of her last child. Dr. Wallach has really taken off with the exotic part of this clinic and has gained tons of expertise in treating rabbits. She attends the midwest exotic conferences. She is a very dedicated, caring vet and is willing to listen to any input from experienced bunny people. She volunteers at a Willowbrook Wildlife Center in Glen Ellyn on her off hours, too.

Comments from Diane: Hours: M, Tu, Th, F: 9AM - 6PM; W and Sat: 9AM - Noon. She is a wonderful, personable, rabbit-savvy doctor. Has great people skills too; very good at calming down hysterical bunny moms. The staff is very friendly and all seem to be rabbit-knowledgeable; you feel very confident about having your bun in their care. Also, just as an FYI-they share office space with Animal 911. If you are a patient of Chicago Exotics, and your bun has to be checked in through Animal 911, they can be "transferred" to Chicago Exotics without actually having move anywhere. Most emergency clinics require you to pick up your animal and take them to your "normal" vet when they close for the day/night.
