My wife and I had heard so many great things about Banfield as far as the care and attention they give patients and their family. We experienced just that, care and immediate attention for Jackie O, and this is what we searched for and found. Thank You to all the staff we have had the pleasure of meeting.

Lulu is a true asset to this facility. She took great care of my cat, Birdie. My cat was not happy but I could hear Lulu through the door calming her.

The most unprofessional costumer service. I called to find out the price for a Rabis title test, they don't even know what it is… when I explained it the answer was-they don't do it. I realized that the person talked to me was someone who didn't know anything but was answering calls. I asked to invite someone who could answer my question: do they do this test and the price.After they kept me on the line for 20 minutes and then said they could do it for $600, then she changed the price from $600 to $700... They make up prices out of their heads

My pet was a drop off at 10am and he wasn’t ready until almost 5pm. With that being said, when I picked up my pet he was soaked in his urine! That’s not sanitary and it’s not nice. I was told he had an accident during one of his vaccinations but I don’t believe that for one second. He had on his onesie and it was handed to me in a bag soaking wet. His chin hair was soaking wet. This tells me he was not taken out to potty from being there all day and he drunk tons of water when he got home. I feel like my pet was not treated properly and possible ignored. I will not be taking my pet back to this location.

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 Your monthly payments can be automatically withdrawn from a checking or savings account or charged to a credit card so that you don’t have to worry about them once you enroll.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