- SCSusan CarmichaelDec 16, 20251.0I use to think Banfield was a pretty good deal if the vet was good. Those days are over.
- AAAshley Alicea-HernandezNov 5, 20255.0Wendy has been going to Banfield since she was at least 7 weeks old. Always a great experience for her and for me! Very friendly staff and Wendy loves going to see her favorite people!
- NWNikki WallaceOct 29, 20255.0This place has ALWAYS been absolutely AMAZING and the staff are impeccable. They’re always on top of everything and they always let us know when there’s a problem with something. They really do have a great place for pets.
- LRLoni RenzettiOct 20, 20255.0Wonderful and caring and supportive.
- SSsandlotgurlSep 29, 20251.0This banfield has been giving me problems and I am trying to find another vet. First, they do not run on time. You will have to wait half an hr if that before your taken back. Second, how in the world do you not tell people you are closed because of staffing issues? I left work early to get home to my dog to make his appointment. I get there and this sign is up saying closed because of staffing. That pissed me off because I never got a call saying you were closed! That is seriously unprofessional.
Frequently Asked Questions About Banfield Pet Hospital
Does Banfield provide emergency care services?
No, but you can call us during hospital hours for urgent care advice. Depending on the situation, we can help provide a referral for urgent care, specialty providers, or to an emergency hospital. During non-hospital hours, please contact your local emergency 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:

• Dental Care

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.
• Optimum Wellness Plans® Virtual Visits: If you have an Optimum Wellness Plan and scheduled a Virtual Visit, you’ll save valuable time and get quality care from the comfort of your home.
