- SWsteve wilsonSep 24, 20255.0I have a very hyper dog that did very well with her last visit. We got everything done, and my dog seemed very happy.
- EHElizabeth HicksSep 15, 20251.0Do not sign up for care here. The best vets left and now they only care about making money in every way possible. They only care about profit, not what is best to treat your pet!
- WUWest UniqueSep 15, 20251.0Horrible experience! Did not do all they could’ve done for our cat! Charged us 800 and didn’t offer half of what the second veterinary we had to take her too. Banfield sent her home and she almost died so we took her in to another vet which helped us way more but unfortunately because banfield didnt offer the same it was to late and our family cat passed away! 😞
- MTMartha TrebbeSep 10, 20255.0We have a 12year old mini-poodle who has been a patient at Banfield his entire life. He continues to receive such wonderful care each time he is at Banfield Pet Hospital. At his most recent visit he had his semi-annual wellness plan exam and his teeth cleaned, in addition to extensive maintenance for arthritis and surgery for skin masses. Dr. Schneider and her staff are always so kind and caring and so professional in caring for our "baby". Thank you!

What is an Optimum Wellness Plan?
Optimum Wellness Plans are designed to provide annual preventive care. They include head-to-tail exams, vaccines, early screening diagnostics, consultations for proper nutrition, dental care and more! Since wellness plans are not insurance, they do not include treatment for unpredictable or abnormal conditions, however discounts would apply. Because pets need ongoing preventive care, wellness plans automatically renew at the end of each twelve month period (unless paid in full at enrollment).

You can spread the cost of your wellness plan across the 12 months of your annual agreement to make it easier to budget for the essential health care your pet needs. Your monthly payments can be automatically withdrawn from a checking or savings account or charged to a credit card so that you don’t have to worry about them once you enroll. We also offer the option of paying in full if you prefer.
What kind of appointment do I have?
• In-room appointments: You and your pet visit the vet together. Please arrive a few minutes before your appointment time
• Drop-off appointments: If you have a drop-off appointment, we will communicate a time to drop off your pet. Keep your phone nearby and we’ll call you when your pet is ready for pickup.
