Took my cat there because she was refusing to eat and vomiting, had imaging done, extremely expensive comparatively even though she’s on their Optimum Wellness Plan. I told them it may be a blockage as she has eaten streamers before. The Doctor said everything was normal, and she was fine to go home with NO MEDICATIONS! She kept declining so I went to another vet for a second opinion, had the images from Banfield sent to this new vet, the SINGULAR image they took was so blurry they couldn't decipher anything so they had to be redone. This new vet took three images for half the price. They immediately found a blockage. Now we are on the way to the ER for surgery which should have happened days ago, but due to Banfield’s negligence she is now receiving her care late. If you want to be brushed off and have your pet almost die, go here!

Lleve a mi gato a la hora de la cita, llegué 10 minutos antes y la persona que me atendió solo dijo que había llegado tarde, cuando había llegado 10 minutos antes.
Su solución era que dejara mi gato o volviera con él a las 5:00pm, 4 horas después.
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.
