They are great as long as you don't need care beyond a vaccine, or teeth cleaning. This is where they make there money and they prioritize these services over general care. If my dog was hurt, it would take up to two weeks to get an appointment. Why would I have two vets? That is honestly what is needed which nullifies the "savings" being on a care plan. It is a complete scam.

Took my 5 yr old labrador for a general visit and needed him to get caught up with his vaccines. They are always very nice and helpful and affordable.

We pay quite a bit every month for their "care plan", which includes vet visits, but if something is going on with your pet, you cant bring them in unless you schedule an appointment for a week out or so. If I would have known this I would not have enrolled in the care plan at all, not to mention that it's pretty hard to cancel the plan once you sign up, even if your pet passes away. Its frustrating knowing that you pay a lot of money every month for a plan and you cant bring your hurt pet in on your day off and be seen.

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 Your monthly payments can be automatically withdrawn from a checking or savings account or charged to a credit card so that you don’t have to worry about them once you enroll.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