We have been coming to Banfield since our pups were little (they are nine years old now). The employees at the Bleachery Boulevard location are always very attentive and friendly (front staff, techs, and Veteranarians). We highly recommend this Banfield!

Do not buy the insurance they offer through their office. They do not make it easy to cancel and give you a complete run around. We have been working with them since mid-June to get our insurance cancelled and they keep billing us. Several phone calls later and still not resolved.

My cat has seizures, but she needed to be spade. she needed extra attention and care, which they did well above their job. I would trust them with all 6 of my animals and would recommend them to everyone. Best animal care i ever had.

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 Your monthly payments can be automatically withdrawn from a checking or savings account or charged to a credit card so that you don’t have to worry about them once you enroll.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