- MLMelina Lockhart2 days ago5.0Good service, great employees to talk to, listen to your concerns great with your fur babies
- ABAmirah Bey3 days ago3.0I would love to give this place 5 stars but the front desk really screws up! Especially SHELLY and that little one with the thick unibrow and glasses( she really has a smart mouth! 😡). My dog has been coming to this location for 7 years and recently things have gone DOWN! . From those two not giving correct info to no one answering the phones!!! Iam (Although we definitely miss Dr Mallela) I swear if Dr Hussar was to leave, (especially since we continue to come because of her and location,) we would leave too. And the turn over in staff is ridiculous.. Thank God for Annapolis being the back up hospital.
- JJJessica JessNov 21, 20251.0Apparently the website isn’t accurate so they cancel apts.
- BBBeverly BellOct 22, 20255.0I thoroughly enjoyed for a baby to Banfield of Bowie they are always so kind courteous and so much love to my little guy
- JCJustin CarterOct 13, 20251.0I will not be back to this location. I’ve been 2 times over the last 2/3 months and both times were unpleasant. The other Bowie, MD location and Annapolis, MD location are MUCH better.
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

• 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.
