Family Animal Hospital of Friendswood isn’t a big corporate chain — we’re a family-owned, locally rooted vet in Friendswood, TX, where your pets are treated like part of the family (because to us, they are). Since 2015, we’ve cared for the pets of Friendswood and the surrounding communities, from wide-eyed puppies and kittens to silver-whiskered seniors — and just about every feathered, furred, and scaled friend in between.
Our Story
Family Animal Hospital has been a cornerstone of veterinary care in Friendswood since Dr. Arezue Shokrollahi (known to everyone as Dr. Zoo) took ownership in 2015. Under her leadership, the practice has grown into a trusted, close-knit hospital known for genuine, personal care. As a locally and family-run practice, we get to know you and your pets by name, and we’re in it for the long haul — the kind of relationship that lasts a pet’s whole lifetime.
Our Mission
Our compassionate medical team is here to provide quality treatment for your family’s pets using both knowledge and innovation. Just as important, we believe in building a personal bond with every pet owner — taking the time to educate you and help you make the best decisions for your pet’s quality of life. We’re here for you, we’re here for your pet, and we’re proud to be your neighborhood’s favorite vet.
