- DNDan NaruDec 5, 20255.0Everyone is nice and caring. The Vet is Daisy's normal vet so the Vet is very familiar with her.
- TSTina SchwanderOct 29, 20255.0The whole team at Banfield Traverse City is excellent! I've been taking my family members/pets there for any years. The doctors are thorough and honest up front with the results/ conditions regarding pets. They are not about milking you out of money with false hope.The girls who work with the Dr in the back just love spoiling and loving on my babies! This comforts me because I have a few who are timid & scared. The front desk staff are so friendly everytime you walk in. I really love the optimum wellness plans which bundle all the expected care you need for you pets for an entire year and spread out the payments over a year so you have minimal cost at each visit. Highly recommend!

What is 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 Your monthly payments can be automatically withdrawn from a checking or savings account or charged to a credit card so that you don’t have to worry about them once you enroll.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.
