Overview
It is our mission to treat each pet as if they are a member of our own family. We practice respect, courtesy, empathy and responsibility on a daily basis. It is these characteristics that set us apart from other clinics as we want your entire experience with Friendship Veterinary Hospital to be beneficial to you and your pet
Friendship Veterinary Hospital was bought by Doctors Bensenhaver and Orrell in 1984. In 2004, Doctor Cisco became the proud owner of the hospital. In 2020, our office assistant, Frankie, was hired to assist longtime greeter and peanut eater, Lido, in his daily duties of welcoming clients and staff. Following closely came Finn, who was hired on the spot for a part time position assisting staff in the break room, and remote work at home with Dr. Cisco. In 2023, Fiona joined the team after impressing the staff with her quality biscuit-making talent and high speed trash demolition skills. Joining us in 2025 is world class stick-fetcher, Sawyer, who is learning the ropes
