Banfield Pet Hospital® - Lakewood provides quality and attentive health and wellness care for dog, cat and small animal pet patients. Our veterinarians and staff are committed to promoting responsible pet ownership and preventive health care with a full-service medical facility offering general services like routine vaccinations, microchipping, dental and surgical care and more. We are accepting new patients now.
Dr. Barrera and the vet tech team at the Lakewood location are truly tremendous! They treat my two cats on the wellness plan with SO much love and care. Every time I come in, they’re so excited to see them and they are sooo gentle with them. They always have a room ready for them and are so great to work with!

Went today to get my sick kitten checked and they right away said I needed to drop my pet off since they had to run a bunch of test on her which were clearly not needed. Took my pet and left. They are just looking for money and not even trying to help a sick pet. Will never go back.

This would ** No Stars ** if possible. My mom called this Lakewood Banfield which she takes her dog to regularly for normal veterinary services and has an active wellness plan for her dog. She asked for travel document to fly with her dog. The person who answered said it would be $500. We called to confirm and the person that answered confirmed it was $500. We asked specifically for detail of what is provided and covered with the $500 fee and they stated they cannot do that. They even said they cannot provide firm pricing until the day they would provide the documents.
We called another Banfield and asked the question about the cost for travel documents. They explained that if the pet is covered under an active wellness plan then the cost of the documents were already covered and that even without an active wellness plan the cost was not $500.
Needless to say my mom will not be using the Lakewood Banfield for any future services and will recommend people not use this location because the response they provided does not sound legitimate and raises concerns about their business practices.
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.
Can I get veterinary care online?
To help pets and their people stay healthy, Banfield clients who have Optimum Wellness Plans® can get remote general pet care advice and triage support directly from a veterinarian 24/7 through Vet Chat™ on the Banfield app.
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
• Nutritional Counseling
• Behavioral Counseling
• 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.
• 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.
