Terrible. The monthly payment is a scam. I’ve had it for years and it really hasn’t done much. I have a senior dog and for the past 2 years he absolutely hates going where I have to drag him in, barks and whines, and even jumps at the door the whole time he’s there and my dog never jumps. I bring him in every 2 - 3 months to get an allergy shot ($160 now) and that’s not included in the price but last time I told them he was sniffling and they said he was fine even though the allergy shot has only helped with his itching but his nose and everything has only gotten worse…
**If I were you I would save your money and get pet insurance from somewhere else don’t let them diagnose your pet because it might be harder to find insurance but when I looked into it most insurance places include the allergy shot.
It is really hard to get out of your contract with them is also what I’ve hear just waiting for mine to expire

Mixed experience with Banfield (Gate Parkway, Jacksonville).
The vets were kind and took good care of my pet, but I had issues with the wellness plan. Things weren’t clearly explained, I was told neuter wasn’t covered (which wasn’t true), and I was asked to pay for services that were actually included, plus extra for meds.
I’ve tried reaching out and haven’t heard back.
Just be careful and double-check what’s included before signing up.

Hello,
I am following up regarding my request to cancel my Optimum Wellness Plan with Banfield Pet Hospital (Jacksonville, Gate Parkway location).
At the time of enrollment, I was told I could cancel if needed, but it was not clearly explained that early cancellation would result in a remaining financial obligation. As an international client, I relied on the information provided.
I would also like to note that the veterinarians were kind and professional. However, my experience with the front desk was inconsistent. I was told more than once that the neuter procedure was not covered, which later turned out to be incorrect. I was also asked to purchase additional medications such as pain relief and flea prevention despite the cost of the plan.
Due to this lack of clarity and inconsistent information, I am requesting cancellation of the plan without further financial obligation.
I have taken further steps to formally address this matter and would still prefer to resolve it directly with you.
Please let me know how you would like to proceed.
Thank you,
Olha

Great service every single time I come here. Everybody seems very knowledgeable and kind. I definitely recommend. Also, they offer Wellness Pet Plans that cover all exams and checkups for the year at a much more affordable price than if you were to pay for these things individually. I’ve been getting these Wellness plans for my dog for 4 years now and I highly recommend that as well.
Frequently Asked Questions About Banfield Pet Hospital
Does Banfield provide emergency care services?
No, but you can call us during hospital hours for urgent care advice. Depending on the situation, we can help provide a referral for urgent care, specialty providers, or to an emergency hospital. During non-hospital hours, please contact your local emergency hospital.
Can I get veterinary care online?
To help pets and their people stay healthy, Banfield clients who have Optimum Wellness Plans® can get remote general pet care advice and triage support directly from a veterinarian 24/7 through Vet Chat™ on the Banfield app.
What preventive pet health care services does Banfield offer?
We believe that preventive care is the most effective way to keep your pet healthy throughout all stages of life. Our pet hospitals offer many preventive care treatments, including:
• Vaccinations
• Dental Care
• Parasite Control
• Nutritional Counseling
• Behavioral Counseling
• Comprehensive Examinations
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.
• Optimum Wellness Plans® Virtual Visits: If you have an Optimum Wellness Plan and scheduled a Virtual Visit, you’ll save valuable time and get quality care from the comfort of your home.
