My dog went in completely healthy and somehow seized for the first time and died.
I don't even know how to begin this, my dog went in just for a checkup because she had some drops of blood in her urine(she has experienced this before so it wasn't anything too crazy and it was starting to clear up, but i just wanted her checked out, of course). she was six years old, a healthy chi/pom mix. I was called and told she had a UTI so I agreed to the antibiotic shot, convenia, they always give this shot to her, she's used to it, no side effects. they said she was ready for pickup, I got there about an hour or two after their call because I had an errand and traffic was horrible. When I arrived to pick her up, they put my partner and I in a room to tell us she had a seizure??? Not sure why I didn't even receive a call when the seizure happened. The second thing is as the doctor was explaining in the room, a nurse needed him for an emergency and he went into the vetting area, when he came back into the room he told me my baby's heart stopped... He had no idea how. Which is amazing to me because how did she go in for a UTI checkup and end up passing away unexpectedly. No history of seizures or illnesses either. And lastly, I was supposed to receive an email from them about everything they gave her and even a call from someone they were supposedly reporting the death to? No call, no explanation, and no email. I've been going to this Banfield for over ten years. I am genuinely baffled because this is my first bad experience. I've been left completely in the dark on a situation that ACTUALLY matters.

They squeezed us in for a quick appointment. Dr. Box and his associates quickly said what they wanted to do and asked for my permission to go ahead with their plan. In a few minutes, they ruled out more serious illness and then presented me with the next steps. We were out quickly, and our puppy recovered in a day. Amazing service and respect for owners as well as the animals they care for.

The office visit fee skyrocketed in last 3-4years.. Medications are way above than the rest of the vet pharmacist.
Insane for the 3 X Rays they charge closely $550!!!
After hefty fees on consultation, exams, medications they will ask you to donate a $ for the pet in need.
They really have to revisit the the fees they charge...

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.
