- CMChristie McKernanJun 16, 20235.0We love Banfield and especially the staff at this location. We are always greeted by name, and both of the vets here have done a great job with one of my cats who isn’t very friendly. I appreciate that so much considering my old vet would not physically examine him. They are kind and patient with the animals. Also, you can almost always get in for a drop off appointment if one of your pets is sick. That is a huge relief. We switched to Banfield a little over a year ago, after our former vet quoted $1200 for a teeth cleaning for one of our cats, and about $900 for spaying our dog. With the mid tier plan, dental cleaning is included—a huge financial relief for us since one of our cats has bad teeth. We also were able to add the spay on to our plan in order to break up the cost, which was great! Some other reviews aren’t happy with the pricing, but I find they are always clear about it and do not overcharge compared to other local vets. When there was a miscommunication, the clinic and corporate worked with us to correct the situation, which was greatly appreciated. Highly recommend this location. Freyja gives them two paws up!

Frequently Asked Questions About Banfield Pet Hospital

What preventive pet health care services does Banfield offer?
We believe that preventive care is the most effective way to keep your pet healthy throughout all stages of life. Our pet hospitals offer many preventive care treatments, including:
• Vaccinations
• Dental Care
• Parasite Control

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 Your monthly payments can be automatically withdrawn from a checking or savings account or charged to a credit card so that you don’t have to worry about them once you enroll.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