Animal Clinic Of Friendly Center
Greensboro, North Carolina
General Info
The Veterinary services at Animal Clinic of Friendly Center in Greensboro monitor animals by observing where they focus their attention, their comfort-seeking behaviors, and the duration of their tension. Many pet owners in North Carolina identify this particular rhythm. The beginning of communication between individuals frequently occurs without spoken words. Before initiating any physical examination, the team deciphers tail position along with spatial hesitation and micro-responses. The adjustment of both lighting and scent levels within each room serves to prevent the activation of startle reflexes. The schedule for appointments follows the pet's intrinsic regulatory timeline without deviation. Certain practitioners initiate assessments through orthopedic examinations while others start with basic observational scans based on detected tension patterns. Animal Clinic of Friendly Center provides diagnostic services and lab work along with illness intervention and orthopedic support plus dermatological care and oral health treatment for multiple species. Exams modify sequences or omit steps when indicators such as lip licking and paw withdrawal or gaze shifting appear. Pain indicators are assessed through posture and breath not only vocalization especially important for stoic breeds or prey-species animals. The process of re-acclimation receives encouragement following treatment. Families receive detailed briefings about potential long-term behavioral responses and methods to detect secondary stress indicators while understanding when decompression needs should take precedence over immediate activities. Home care plans are tailored to fit each pet’s sensory limits instead of focusing solely on physical recovery milestones. The Animal Clinic of Friendly Center delivers a veterinary experience to North Carolina homes that transcends clinical norms by engaging in quiet conversations attuned to animal signals of comfort, confusion, and calm.

My dog has gone here since he was a puppy and because of our amazing experience with Dr Gentry, I have recommended them to many of my friends…except for two very specific incidents (both with Dr Shaw). The absolute most horrible experience. My dog was terrified because of her approach and it was a very chaotic and heartbreaking visit, while I also left feeling terrible because of the insensitive comments by Dr Shaw. The bedside manor is nonexistent.
I would still recommend this clinic, but be sure to ask for Dr Gentry.

Misdiagnosed my cat's DIABETIC NEUROPATHY for ARTHRITIS. A vet tech from another clinic made the correct diagnosis without even examining the cat--all they did was read the exam notes from Animal Clinic of Friendly. Would have made a world of difference to have caught it half a year sooner. Maybe they're better with dogs but don't take your cat there.i suppose it's my fault as this is the second incorrect diagnosis I've gotten there: both nearly killed my cat.

I love Dr. Gentry, Chelsea, Kathy and all of the staff here. I've been taking my cats to this clinic for at least 10 years and they have always provided thoughtful, caring, and customer oriented customer service. They nursed my cat, Tigger, to a recovery from serious illness and were very supportive and gentle when it was time to euthanize 2 of my kitties. I recommend them to everyone!

Superior treatment! Recently, Dr. Gentry treated my Buka's deep ear infections, and after a week she is 100% better. My smooth collie is no longer miserable and constantly shaking her head in discomfort. Dr. Gentry is a caring, skillful healer; the staff are attentive, focused, and always show a concern for my animals' well-being. When my pets need medical attention, I know I can always depend on Animal Clinic of Friendly for superior treatment. Thank you. Dave E.

It has taken a long time for me to write this review because it still hurts my heart to even think about the way my precious tabby was treated. He was almost 14 and developed kidney problems and had to stay at Friendly for fluids. He had NEVER been away from me for any time but also had always been a sweet boy at the clinic. I guess he was frightened about being put in a very small cage (while one of the staff who worked there had her kitties in a larger, comfortable cage while they visited) and scratched and hissed at one of the staff. He was then shunned. I came on my lunch hour to visit and he was covered in feces and shaking in the back of the cage. He started to hiss at me, but then realized it was his mommy. He was so sick, but his eyes begged me to take him out of there. The staff advised against it and said he needed more fluids, so STUPIDLY, I left him. They had even taken away his comfort blanket (they said it needed to be washed). The next morning, I went and got him against their advice and brought him home. I began giving him fluids at home, but he just got worse. A week later, on a Saturday, I knew he was ready and I was being selfish to keep allowing him to suffer so I called the clinic to ask if I could bring him in to have him put to sleep. When I brought him in, I was so distraught and already in tears. One of the staff members was already complaining that we needed to hurry it up because they wanted to close and then another explained to me that if he got violent that they would have to stick him again and it would be worse and that they would also have to take him to the back away from me. I told them that I would help hold him and my precious boy looked up at me and made his choice. He peacefully left this cruel world with no stuggling at all and my heart broke into pieces and no one in that clinic cared at all. Please think and investigate before you choose a clinic for your baby and if you feel uncomfortable, TAKE THEM HOME. I should have at the start.

Dr. Jackie took very good care of my animal (cricket is a 12 yr old blue healer mix). I felt comfortable with her diagnosis. She wasn't trying to sell me anything and really worked with me. I left with a prescription for joint pain now my dog is acting like a puppy, playing with the kids and lovin' life! Thank you!
