I've used Good Friends for 3 years consistently, nearly since we adopted our sweet girl, Beesly. We initially went to another vet in town and just were not happy at all. Our dog is an anxious mess, and everyone is always so good to her, very gentle, never rushed, trying to go on Beesly's terms. She even did really well overall when we boarded her, and we were all anxious about how that would go!I honestly don't think there is a better place in town, the level of care is unprecedented. The space is always clean and it's very well maintained. All staff that I've had the pleasure of interacting with have been truly wonderful, so knowledgeable and helpful. I'd not trust anyone else with Beesly even half as much as I trust Good Friends. We had appointments during the pandemic, so things were a bit different where I wasn't able to accompany Beesly but she did just great- as I knew she would, I'm truly not sure I would have been okay with that anywhere else.I think the pricing is on par and fair for the services provided. Overall, working with Good Friends gives me peace of mind, and that alone is worth it.

The entire staff has been caring and supportive. My dog ended up with cancer that required specialized treatment. The doctor kept up on the status and well being of my dog even while he was cared for by the specialist. They've been great since I switched to them a couple years ago.

Good Friends is great. I take my personal dogs and I've taken a lot of my fosters to them. They've gone above and beyond for my fosters, even though I keep bringing them spicy ones.

Absolutely the best veterinarian I have ever been to. Their team is incredibly compassionate. You are missing out if you decide to take your pet to any other vet in town. I don’t experience this level of compassion and gentle care anywhere else, even at the doctors office. They truly care about your pet.

First vet visit after adopting Mira from the humane society. They had a promo to waive first-time visits, so that was very nice.Staff and Veterinarian was very friendly and knowledgeable. We will be coming back to visit for check ups. Thank you!

Dr. Norris did nothing but suggest we euthanize our family dog. She refused to let us take her home. My family can't recover from this. We'll never go to another vet because of this.

Another bonus, the vet bill was reasonable. I would Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for Awesome care of their pets.

I recently switched vet care for my senior French Bulldog to GFAH. I cannot say enough good things! Every staff member I have interacted with has been kind, professional, and knowledgeable. It was very easy to get in for an appointment. The veterinarian that we saw spent a lot of time with us and explained things clearly and most importantly my dog loved her! I am very thankful that we switched to Good Friends, would highly recommend to anyone in the CU area needing vet care.

This was the only place in town (besides UIUC vet med $$$) that could get my dog in right away for urgent care.We were in and out in about an hour and the bill for urgent care was comparable to what I'd pay my usual vet for regular services. I do go to one of the pricier vets in town and, having 2 older dogs, the cost becomes overwhelming.I left Good Friends looking forward to following up with Dr. Norris in a couple of weeks for my girl's UTI.They were understanding and responsive to my particular concerns and very generous and compassionate. I feel confident with Dr. Norris' assessment and I strongly suspect that this will be my girl's new vet going forward.There was a small mistake on the bill which was resolved with a quick phone call.

One of the most amazing places I've been to, my kitten Had a very serious accident and after having a not so great experience at the u of I the night before they were immediately able to help him and see what the issue was, he didn't make it but their kindness and willingness to try matters so much♡ also just had to take that kittens brother in because he had an absess and they got him in right away and he's doing amazing now, every single person I met that works there was awesome. I spent almost $1k at the u of I for just a few hours, then when I took him here, they kept him over night and I spent so much less. They go above and beyond for their patients.

The Dr and her staff made me feel at home from the time I walked in. She was gentle with my cat and helped me with her fur mats. Excellent job I have told my friends about the experience.
