- LMLinda MattinglyOct 22, 20255.0We’ve been taking our pets to Banfield for years and we are very happy with the quality of care provided, as well as the great staff.
- BRBetsy RobbinsSep 16, 20255.0Everyone at the 3361 Rosecrans Banfield Pet Hospital is very helpful and caring! My two cats receive great care, and I trust they are in kind hands whenever I drop them off. My questions always get answered, and I find their online access to vet care professionals helpful when after hours needs arise.
- CMChad McCabeSep 8, 20251.0I called Friday afternoon to see if I could get my dog in Saturday as he wasn't feeling good. They told me the only option was to drop him off, but they convinced me to take him to the ER instead. At the ER they told me to follow up with my regular vet. I tried calling Saturday morning repeatedly and no one would answer. Therefore, I decided to just bring my dog in. They refused to see him even though 14 hours earlier they told me I could drop him off. Yet another crappy understaffed Banfield clinic.

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).
How do I pay for an Optimum Wellness Plan?
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 Your monthly payments can be automatically withdrawn from a checking or savings account or charged to a credit card so that you don’t have to worry about them once you enroll.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.
