It started off great 11 years ago, but the last 5 years have truly sucked. My dog went in for a checkup. 4 days later we personally found lumps on her breast, they did not even check her to notice, she ended up having cancer. Luckily she survived a big surgery. The staff just doesn't care anymore

I have a preventive plan. I have been a client for about 20 years and have my third dog cared for at Banfield. Twice in the last year I have had to take my pet to either another location or an out side vet for care. The second time I had to pay over $500 for care. It wasn't on a week end or holiday that I couldn't get in to see my regular vet. I've never had this happen before this year and I'm not happy about the inconvenience or the out of pocket cost. Non

Dr. Natalia Perez is rude, disrespectful, and should not be in the business of caring for pets. She is extremely inconsiderate and does not possess the empathy needed to be a veterinarian. Not only did she accuse us of not caring for our pet properly, but she also refused to educate, became argumentative, and disconnected the call. She has been reported to not only Banfield, but the board as well. She is not a pet person at all. I would not recommend Dr. Perez or anyone at Banfield Pet Hospital. We have discontinued services and found another veterinarian. These people are despicable and the worst I've experienced.

I could not ask for better vet team. Jen is always there in anyway she can. Megan is awsome with our pets. Dr.minki is so many things to our family. We been with her 20 years. I think that's right. I will not let my pets see anyone but her. I even drove 17 hours. For her surgery on my pets. I got lucky when I found her and made her life time vet.

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).

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 Your monthly payments can be automatically withdrawn from a checking or savings account or charged to a credit card so that you don’t have to worry about them once you enroll.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.
