Through the next 20 years, the Best Friends family continued to grow as the client base expanded. Dr. Ritchie and Dr. Riggs had to make the choice of remodeling the current rented building to create more space or build an entirely new facility. The decision was realized with a marvelous state-of-the-art 6,500 sq.

Best Friends is dedicated to the proper care for your pet. Through education, preventive care, and careful management of medical needs, we will help you enjoy your pet for as many years as possible. Our pets cant tell us where they hurt and they often mask their pain. A comprehensive physical exam and careful discussion with the client allow us to detect abnormalities and uncover disease.
Cindi from Cozy Cat Cottage had rescued her from the Wal-Mart parking lot. She had an old wound on her left rear leg that was not healing. Cindi brought her to us to clean and suture the area and give her a clean bill of health. After a lengthy surgery and some routine testing Nip was on her way back to Cozy Cat.

I have been using Best Friends for about 20 years now. They are always honest and great with all my pets and give my all the options I can use. Staff is always friendly and attentive. At times can be pricey but that can be any vet service so I trust them with all my pets. The office is always clean. They even helped with a few of my pets passing away and couldn't have been more loving and respectful.

Just moved to Powell from Worthington and decided to check out Best Friends for my Cat checkups. Place is clean and people are very nice. Dr was well informed and gave us ample time. Only issue I have is that my cat is declawed and only has rear nails. I was charged $18 for my cats rear nails only trim as most places I've gone to gives complimentary nail trim once a year. Seems pretty high to me.

Best Friends Vet is the only place I take my Dogs. My standard size dachshund Charley was diagnosed with Addison's disease. When it all started 12 years ago they were the only vet to figure out what was wrong with him. It wasn't cheap but they knew exactly what he needed and he was able to stay with me until he was almost 14 years old. I miss him dearly.
They were so compassionate towards me, in my time of anguish when he passed away in my arms on the way to their office. The whole staff is great, I trust all the doctors, and I continue to take my beagle and my miniature dachshund to them. In my opinion they are the best vets around. Nothing but positive things about this vet clinic.

I loved bringing my dogs to Best Friends, especially Dr Riggs. I had been going to them since we adopted our first dog 16 years who is still with us today. I have always had great things to say about them until Covid. I am not a big fan of a strange person taking my dogs while I wait in my car as they look over my dogs and talk to me on the phone. I do appreciate Dr Riggs calling me and talking to me about me complains and concerns with the restrictions.

Everyone at Best Friends from the staff to the Dr.'s are out of this world. As a pet owner, I am so very thankful for all of the special attention everyone provides my fur-babies. Bobby (Loki) and KiKi (Mina). Along with my older kitty Zoe' who Dr. Riggs helped bring her to peace and her next adventures in kitty heaven. So kind, so thoughtful and truly interested in the well being of all animals. Cannot say enough but THANK YOU EVERYONE!

Horrible! Took my baby, my puppy, my gorgeous and handsome boy to get neutered and the surgery end up killing him. He was fine at first, then got sicks for 3 days end we end up having to put him down unfortunately. He was completely fine until I took him here. Also I know of at least two other people who went through the same pain as we did!

I have been bringing my cats to Best Friend's Veterinary Hospital for years. I have lived in five states, and I have worked with many good vets and offices. Best Friend's is my favorite place! The vets are expert and kind. The entire staff extend their warm welcome too. They all remember my pets and their needs. The vets and their staff have seen me through some tough moments.
They helped me send my sweet 18 year old cat gently over the rainbow bridge. When my kitten's leg was broken, the staff was calming me and immediately helping her. Her surgery went perfectly, and she healed quickly and has perfect mobility. From the usual to the stressful, Dr. Rigg's and his colleagues have delivered wonderful care to my pets! I am here to stay. Lin Fulmer

For almost 34 years our family has been with Best Friends. The staff are outstanding- so welcoming and caring from the moment you walk in until you leave. Dr Ritchie and Dr. Riggs are the most compassionate men when it comes to our pets ( we have had 7 dogs and cats over the years), and their honesty and knowledge is incredible. I have recommended many of my friends and neighbors to this hospital and as long as I have a pet, I know I have a home with them. Josie (our 12 year old chocolate lab) looks so forward to being there but most especially the dog treat when we sign out :) Thank you for many years of caring for my babies.
