    I have been coming to Banfield and had the wellness plan since I adopted my dog, Rocky at 3 months old. He is now 9. Since transferring to the Manahawkin location, the staff has always been absolutely amazing and always getting Rocky in for appointments quickly. Recently, I've needed to be there every weekend for an issue and they always greet you with a smile and explain everything very thorough!

    I've become very disappointed with the service my Jackson did and didn't receive. He was giving dental cleaning when they should of past on dental cleaning do to his elevated liver levels. Witch was less then 3 weeks. Now they want to charge me for the entire year. This place is all about the money not the well-being of your pet. I was told just his age with high liver levels and well his teeth are clean. I have two other dogs and my thoughts have really changed on how little they care.

    I am thoroughly impressed with the level of care provided at this veterinary practice. From check-in to follow-up, the entire team is professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate. The veterinarian performed a thorough examination and offered clear explanations of treatment options without any pressure. Their attention to detail, transparent pricing, and genuine dedication to animal well-being truly set them apart. I’m grateful to have found such a dependable clinic for my pet’s ongoing care. This place literally saved my cars life.
