Jay Whittle
 Doctor
Whittle, known affectionately around here as "Doc",
did his pre-vet studies at the University of Kentucky.
He then went on to study veterinary science at Auburn
University, graduating in 1987. Upon receiving his
doctorate, he moved to Wilmington, North Carolina
where he practiced for two years. Feeling he was needed
elsewhere, Dr. Whittle made his final move to Palos
Heights in 1989 and worked for Palos Animal Hospital
until 1991.
His next step was to start up his own practice which
became known as Mill Creek Animal Clinic. Although
Mill Creek was associated with Palos Animal Hospital
until 1997, it is now an independent practice.
On a personal note, Dr. Whittle lives locally with
his wife Jane, beautiful daughter Olivia, son Dolan
and the youngest, daughter Cecilia. Also included
in his family is his dog Ricky,
and 2 Scottish Fold Cats named Allister and Madison. |

 Dr.
Jennifer Deyo
Dr. Jennifer Deyo (pronounced Day-Oh), a Worth native,
joins Mill Creek Animal Clinic in 2007. She began working
in the veterinary field as a teenager at Crestwood Animal
Hospital, first as an assistant, and then later as a technician.
It was here that she developed her love for Veterinary
Medicine. Although her initial direction in college was
toward the family business of teaching, she eventually
realized that she belonged with the animals and headed
toward the University of Minnesota (Go Gophers!?) for
Veterinary School. After Veterinary school, she joined
Lincolnway Animal Hospital, and now she comes to us. We
are very excited to have her. A large part of practicing
medicine is communication, i.e. teaching the humans that
bring our patients to us. Dr. Deyo’s teaching background
has prepared her for this very important part of medicine.
Combined with her genuine compassion for animals AND people,
Dr. Deyo is just what we want at Mill Creek Animal Clinic.
Dr. Deyo comes from a big family which she enjoys spending
time with when she is not attending to all of her rescues
: Banshee (shep/rott mix), Gabriel (rott/boxer mix), Miles
(French Bulldog), Zacheus (DLH), and Sage (Asian Pond Turtle).
And don’t forget Eenie, Meenie, Minie, and Moe (4 hooded
rats).
When she isn’t tied up with this gang, she enjoys reading,
hiking, hanging with her family, and playing piano.
Welcome aboard Dr. Deyo.
