Dr. L was super helpful; took time to answer (literally) a dozen question and then all our follow-up questions. We have an old dog and we want to love him as well as possible for as long as possible.

Typically like them.
They set me up with a followup appointment for a ua. Had me drug my cat. Had to take time off.
I get to the appointment only to be slapped with fees I was told were already paid in the previous appointment.
Not only have I drugged my cat I took time off work and now my cat is traumatized from having to go there and back for no reason.
No offer to help the situation.

I recently brought my cat, Lu, in for her first wellness check at Banfield Pet Hospital, and I'm absolutely compelled to share how incredible the staff was. From the moment we arrived, Sandi, Bri, and Dr. Toleno were not only professional and knowledgeable but also genuinely compassionate.
In the past, I've had negative experiences with vets, often feeling worried about unnecessary procedures and high costs. But Banfield completely restored my faith. They took the time to understand our financial situation and worked with us to ensure Lu received the care she needed--vaccines, future dental procedure, and more--without causing financial strain.
Dr. Toleno, in particular, went above and beyond, offering not just medical expertise but genuine support and empathy for both me and Lu.
I can't recommend Banfield Pet Hospital enough. Their blend of professionalism, compassion, and dedication truly sets them apart.
I have tears in my eyes writing because I truly could not thank you guys enough for making me feel so safe with Lu's care :')

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.
