Dr. Rebecca Schmidt

Dr. Rebecca Schmidt founded the Northern Illinois Cat Clinic in 1982. At that time, Dr. Schmidt was one of only fifteen veterinarians in the United States limiting her practice to cats. Dr. Schmidt graduated with honors from the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine in 1973. She was the first female veterinarian to complete a post graduate internship at the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine in 1975.

Dr. Schmidt has a special interest in feline internal medicine. Her fascination is motivated by the cat's ability to hide disease symptoms and resist human intervention. Dr. Schmidt's dedication, experience, knowledge of feline medicine and surgery, and gentle touch combine to make her a special member of theDr. Schmidt Northern Illinois Cat Clinic PC Team.

Dr. Schmidt is a member of:

Dr. Schmidt and her husband have three cats at home: Pepsi, Cessna, and Boots. Their two children are grown and now have cats of their own.
