    Staff really care about your pet and use love and kindness with each one. We have been with Banfield for 20 years with several different dogs and a cat. I won't go anywhere else. The doctors take time to talk to you and build a rapport. I highly recommend Bandfield. Are pets are never upset when we take them in or bring them home.

    Terrible service. Very corporate and unconcerned for the actual health of my pet. They refused to bandage his wound and were annoyed with his level of anxiety after we stated prior to the appointment his fear of the vet. They didn’t check out other health concerns or even provide a reasoning or diagnosis. They spent more time explaining their annual pet healthcare plans than looking at him and examining him. Overall service was a 1 and I’m spending hundreds to get a diagnosis. They refused to do a follow up appointment because he’s too stressed out to be at the vet. When we literally sedated him. They are lazy and just want to pump out as many clients as possible. Update: since they refused to trim his nails during sedation a nail ripped off and has caused sever damage to his paws. This place is a joke

    Love the staff! Dr. Nickel and all the staff are super friendly and great to my dog. I know Banfield can get a bad rap for all the fees and stuff, but overall I'm really glad I take my dog here. I know Lucy is getting the best care and I love the location being near me :) Overall, highly recommend! They truly love your pets.
