Banfield Pet Hospital provided excellent care for my pet. The staff was friendly, professional, and gentle, and the veterinarian Karina explained everything clearly. The facility was clean, the service was efficient, and the Wellness Plan made routine care easy and affordable. I felt confident in the care my pet received and highly recommend Banfield.

I have been bringing my cat to this location for the past 4 years but have been taking her to Banfild for 5! The staff at this location are so nice and so helpful with any questions and concerns I may have. Now I have a kitty who has started going here and I feel safe knowing she is getting the proper care with each visit.

Brought my pets in with a lot of anxiety because I don’t usually put them under for teeth cleaning but Ashley reassured me and made me feel better about it. They listened to my concerns and let me know they would check on their health before they proceed with anything. I appreciate communication a lot as I am an anxious person overall and it helped soothe me. They took care of anything I needed as well.

Hoy tuvimos una cita para nuestra mascota a las 5:00 p.m., pero no nos atendieron hasta las 6:13 p.m. Durante todo ese tiempo nadie se acercó a revisarnos ni a darnos ninguna información. Después de más de una hora de espera, simplemente nos dijeron que no podían ayudarnos. Ni siquiera el doctor salió a evaluar o asistir con el procedimiento que necesitaba nuestro perro; solo nos enviaron a urgencias (ER).
Da la impresión de que este lugar solo se enfoca en cobrar mensualmente, en lugar de ofrecer una verdadera atención veterinaria. No muestran interés ni por las mascotas ni por sus dueños.
No recomendamos este lugar en absoluto. Fue una completa pérdida de tiempo y dinero.

Today I went to an appointment with my pet, and it was a completely disappointing experience. We waited for over an hour, and no one came to check on us or provide any information. After all that time, they simply told me they couldn’t help us. Not even the doctor came out to attend to or evaluate the procedure my dog needed; they just sent us to the ER instead.
Honestly, this place does not provide real veterinary care. It seems focused only on charging monthly fees without delivering the service they promise. They don’t have a team that truly cares about pets or their owners.
I do not recommend this place at all — it was a total waste of time and money.
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.

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

• 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.
