Gold Coast Animal Hospital PC in Chicago, IL with 5 Vets: AAHA-accredited, Board Certified doctors & hospital provide the finest care for your pet.

Gold Coast Animal Hospital has seen many changes throughout the years. Our hospital, originally known as Lake Shore Animal Hospital, was built by a woman, Florence Fitzgerald in the early 1960's. Ms. Fitzgerald envisioned a state of the art animal hospital, and for an astounding 1.5 million dollars, built the only veterinary clinic in Illinois that measured up to human hosptal standards. Dr. Lloyd Prasuhn was hand picked to run the most advanced veterinary hospital of the day. From 1961 until 1988, Dr. Prasuhn hosted instructors from various schools of veterinary medicine. These professors instructed the veterinarians of Lake Shore Animal Hospital in surgery, oncology, and internal medicine. While the hospital cared for the pets of the rich and famous such as Hugh Hefner and Mayor Richard J. Daley, Dr. Prasuhn also held vaccine clinics for the poor of the area.
