Horrible experience from start to when I walked out and told them to erase my information. I refuse to let my puppy be taken into a room without me on a first wellness check. Especially not to be able to inspect the room. They should inform you of that. I was told I couldn't go back because the room had drugs in it. Seriously an exam room! I would definitely give a zero if I could. I'm not wasting my time even talking about the staff. They have no pricing charts! Find a regular vet that is my opinion.

They are efficient but they are so busy that have little time to provide any personalized attention to the client or their pets.

I have used Banfield Pet Hospital since 2004 for three different pets. Everyone has been courteous and helpful with all our pet's needs.

My dog had a growth on his leg and we took him to Banfield to be checked out. We signed up for a wellness plan so he could have the x-rays and tests performed to confirm that the growth was nothing to be concerned about. They told us that the sample they took from his growth had bone fragments and was likely just an infection from a minor fracture. Sent us home with antibiotics and that was that. We took him back two other times after that and at no point did they entertain the idea that the growth was not getting better. They said it wasn’t anything to be concerned about. About a month after third Banfield visit, our dog couldn’t move one morning; couldn’t lift his head to eat and just laid there. We took him to a different vet who told us in about 5 minutes that the growth on his leg was actually a very malicious tumor and that his body had stopped fighting and we needed to put him down. They told us that had we caught the tumor in time, it probably could have been treated and he would have been okay.
We put down our dog for cancer that day. Had Banfield let us know sooner the condition our dog was in, he might still be alive today. If I could give zero stars I would. I do not plan on taking another animal to Banfield.

They are good with pets, but it seems that the greed isn't worth it. Now that I've taken my cat to a different vet, I can see that Banfield is ridiculously expensive. Between the wellness plan, that gave you a free visit, it ended up being way more expensive than any other vet office. They charge so much and say you're getting a discount, because you pay monthly for this plan. I stayed with them for so long though because they really are good with animals.

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
