Mike Biehl, DVM, MBA, PhD
Hospital Director
Hello! I’m the person who answers the referring DVM hot line—217-333-5311.
Since I joined the hospital in 2001, I’ve come to know our staff well. I have a broad knowledge of our people and policies and will devote the time and attention you need to get your questions answered.
Working with our clinical coordinator team—the certified veterinary technicians in each section designated to work with referring veterinarians before, during, and after their patient’s treatment here—I can help assure that you have all the information you need as we assist you in providing the best care for your patients.
