Our puppy experience has been brilliant with Dr. Matthiesen. It is clear she loves her work, shows care with advice and dosage, and has amazing bedside manner. Booking appointments, support staff, and wait times are all fantastic as well. Thank you, Friendship Hospital for Animals!

Run FROM this place! Don't bring your fur baby here...it's traumatizing. From the broken elevators to non-existent care, we will never return to this place. They nickel and dime --and don't have the time. Go anywhere else (the Vienna Animal Hospital is amazing).

I brought my very sick cat (not eating, barely responsive, stumbling and unable to really walk) for emergency care and left with no diagnosis, a huge bill, and gabapentin. Except they actually forgot to give me the gabapentin. They called me once I was nearly home to come back and get the meds, meaning extra time with my very sick cat, being further stressed out by being in a car for more time. I guess a good thing I can say is that at least they called me to fix their mistake and get her the non-curative meds they prescribed. Since they did nothing to help, the next day, she was even worse so I took her to VEG instead where they immediately diagnosed that the ear infection we'd been treating had traveled into her inner ear. They did some tests to confirm & rule out other issues, gave her some meds and she was responsive, able to walk, and hungry again within an hour. VEG then sent us home with a 3-day course of antibiotics + a couple other meds (that they handed me before leaving the private room kitty and I were waiting in together). With VEG's help, she recovered quickly and completely. Seems like Friendship Animal Hospital ignored the context info I gave them or didn't do the right tests or... anyway, they didn't help at all. And we spend 5+ hours there. Most of which seemed to have been her cooped up someplace very stressful because despite extreme lethargy, she was returned to me with her claws shredded. Not clipped - splintered. I can only imagine that she was clawing at wherever she was being kept, trying to escape. Meanwhile, they put me alone in a room? She could have at least stayed in the room with me until the vet was ready to see her, but instead she was someplace stressful, not being helped. Terrible.
