Several years experience - always great We have taken two dogs to this Vet for several years, and could not be happier with the service and care we have received. The staff has been universally qualified, professional and caring. I credit them with saving the life of one of my dogs who required a lengthy hospitalization, and is now fully recovered. I completely disgagree with the reviewer who didn't like the physical space -- it has always seemed to me to be clean and well kept. Pricing is competitive, and I have never felt ... read more

Best Friends Animal Hospital is under new management!!! I have no idea if any of these negative things are true about Best Friends, but I do know that they have been bought and are undergoing alot of positive changes! The hospital is looking better and the staff is getting educated (there is plenty of new staff)! I would try it for yourself! And for all of her many loyal clients, Dr. Habib is still here!!!

DOESN'T CARE ABOUT ANIMALS MEAN TO STAFF Dr. Habib doesn't care about the animals she fired my friend who was the head nurse there because she asked her daughter to play with the healthy animals instead like the boarding ones instead of the animals scheduled for surgery or the sick animals that are hospitalized. Her daughter didn't like that and told her mother because she was upset. My friend said that because the iv line came out and this 3lb chihuahua had problems before with getting it's iv line put in and my friend did ... read more

Best Friends Animal Hospital WARNING this place is crap!! I've been going to BFAH for about 6-8 months. I have been very disappointed with the front staff. They are rude, unprofessional and make me feel like they don't know what they're doing. They seem so frazzled and irritated. The doctors are okay. Didn't care for Habib, she mentioned about how broke she was, and didn't really seem like she cared about my pets. The thing that I can't stand is how long I have to wait for an appointment. I always have to wait between 30-60 ... read more

Dr. Habib needs to get into a new line of business... Dr. Habib is the worst vet ever! As stated in other reviews, Dr. Habib was consistently late for all our appointments. We heard her on several occasions yelling at her staff. I had heard from a previous receptionist that they were not getting paid and that the Dr. has a lawsuit against her from a previous employee for pain and suffering!!! Her staff all leave and after seeing a few of them at other clinics they all say the same thing "She is awful" She screams at them, sh... read more

Do Not Take Your Pets Here!!! I have been to many animal hospitals, Ive even worked at one, BUT this one takes the cake as far as POOR quality of medicine, Insane staff, and very RUDE unprofessional Veterinarian (Dr Sindy Habib).

Not an animal hospital but a NUTHOUSE! This is the last place on earth I would take your pet to! The quality of medicine is awful, especially for the price. Doctor Habib has screamed and cussed so loud at her employees that the entire hospital, including all of the clients in the reception area, have heard! The most unprofessional veterinarian on earth! Doctor Habib's only concern is her cell phone, which she is constantly on, ignoring the waiting rooms/clients. It seems everytime I would go in, more and more of the staff ha... read more
