Pets' Friend Animal Hospital

Dr. Alter, Angela and his team are the most charismatic, genuine, and compassionate staff I’ve experienced. Taking your fur babies to the vet is stressful enough, but they go above and beyond to ensure they provide the best care. My cat had constipation issues and they were hands on to show me the X-rays and provided a step-by-step plan to solve the problem. They listen, they care, and they help. They all knew my Aunt and would ask how she is doing and that was a BIG reason why I decided to make them my primary vet. Thank you to the staff for being the BEST experience I’ve ever had while taking my cat to the vet.

I am absolutely thrilled that we found Pets Friend through a neighbor's recommendation. We'd previously been going to a vet in New Haven that upcharged like crazy, pushed unnecessary services, and had horrible staff that would treat me like a bad dog owner for not doing $300/month "preventative" bloodwork. Ever since we switched we've been so happy and our dog Luna has had incredible care. The doctor is very mindful of not doing unnecessary procedures and is extremely knowledgeable, and his recommended treatment for our dog's arthritis has made her feel four years younger and so much happier. The entire staff is beyond wonderful, they're so kind and helpful that I truly feel like my dog is in the best hands possible. Angela especially is Luna's favorite, she's so scared of the vet in gener

We have been going to Dr Alter for 20 + years with our two parrots. He has been outstanding caring for our Pets and Erika and Kiwi always loved him!!!! He is a very caring and compassionate man. The world is a better place with you Dr Alter andPets Friend!!!!!!!!We also take our 20 year old cat Ernie to his hospital Dr Alter, Angela , are truly awesome Doctors. They actually came in on their day off when Ernie was in need of care .

I can’t say enough things about our experience with Pets Friend Animal Hospital! Ever since we got our yellow lab Callie, we knew what we wanted in a veterinarian. Someone who actually cared about her well-being and not just as another office visit to rush through as quickly as possible. After six years of looking for that kind of vet, we finally found Dr. Alter and his team at Pets Friend Animal Hospital. He and his team are so caring, kind and attentive to Callie! They’re always extremely helpful whenever we have questions or need something; and they’ve never once pushed anything on us that was unnecessary; unlike every other vet that we’ve been too in the past. Callie needed a minor surgery and Dr. Alter and his team couldn’t have been better! They took amazing care of her and even cal

Dr. Alter and his staff are top tier and wonderful. Great expertise, decent fees and a genuine love for animals keep me coming back year after year. They sincerely adore and care about my cats; it's steadily apparent. Dr. Alter also saved - and preserved - the life of one of my cats whom he diagnosed with cardiomyopathy. After the necessary tests and realizing that surgery was impossible, he prescribed potent medication and baby aspirin, which kept her viable and comfortable for three and a half more years than she would've had previously without a proper diagnosis. I will ALWAYS be grateful to Dr. Alter and his staff for their knowledge and kindness.
