About our hospital & team:

Best Friends Animal Hospital, opened in 1997, is a full-service small animal hospital with an excellent reputation in the Grayslake community. In addition to having all the latest technology to practice exceptional veterinary medicine within our hospital, we are fortunate to have a network of specialists to utilize and refer to when necessary, including a mobile ultrasonographer and board certified surgeons, to treat complicated cases and orthopedic procedures.

Our team boasts little turnover, with most of our team having worked here for over 15 years, and our "family dynamic" sets us apart. We love to have fun at work by having potlucks, BBQs and holiday parties.
