- SWSally WallaceSep 15, 20255.0Rocky is a very anxious pit bull mix, but everyone at Banfield has treated him with love and understanding. He gets great care, and everyone takes extra time to explain things to me, an anxious dog Mom. I’d give everyone a 10 out of 10!
- AKAshley KrammesSep 3, 20255.0My three pups have been seen by multiple vets, and multiple Banfields over the years and this is by far the best! Dr. Dombrowe is second to none! She is kind and thorough and always takes the time to explain things and answer all of my many questions. The staff at this location seem to truly love what they do and are always so kind, helpful, and happy!
- SGSean GillaspieSep 2, 20251.0I had an extremely disappointing experience. I called ahead at 3:07 to let them know I was running just a few minutes late. When I arrived at 3:10, after driving across Charlottesville from the University of Virginia with my 86-year-old grandfather and our 13-year-old dog, Courtney told us we “should have called to say we were here” and refused to take us back. Instead, she made us reschedule, saying we were “wasting her time.” We were there. We had already called. Turning away an elderly man and making us leave after such effort was unnecessarily harsh and unprofessional.
- GCGrace CollierJul 31, 20255.0The Veterans and the Veterans Techs are all great with my 3dogs. They all treat them as their own.
- MWMatthew WhisnantJul 25, 20255.0Maya and I always feel welcome at the vet. She loves her appointments. All the staff are very helpful and take the time to have conversations not just about my dog’s physical health, but her interactions and place in my home (along with 2.5 year old human). Banfields scheduling is easy and the communication before and after appt is easy and much appreciated.
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.
