This place SUCKS!!!! Every time that I take my dog for his appointments they told me that they can’t do anything on him because his not friendly???? I mean???? Isn’t you job to deal with dogs???? And I give him the meds for be more calm today and the told me the same thing and maybe that he will need to increase the dosage. Why if you know that the meds don’t do anything to him wait for me to take him and do nothing?????????? This people only care about money the don’t care about your pets health. Honestly they suck.

I’m not even sure how there’s a 4 star rating when you clearly can see the reviews are nothing but negativity and I can’t agree more it’s such a horrible place but they’re aware that their prices are competitive and that’s why they’re able to keep customers trust me I’ve tried to locate others. I wouldn’t recommend this vet to anyone the only good thing I will say is the wellness plan and Dr. Lucas keeps me. The wait time when you call or visit is awful customer service is awful. I dread it. Then you can’t even pick your own billing day, it’s exhausting.

I've have had a membership with Banfield for 12 years for my beloved Bobby. This unfortunately had to end on 9/20 when this location, who asked if it was an emergency and it was said they were too busy to see us. We had to go to another vet in Powhatan who took great care for him in his final hours.
What is the point of having the wellness plan only to be told when you have an emergency go somewhere else. This wasn't the first time this situation happened at this location. It happened to me about five years earlier when we were turned away again for an emergency appointment only to be saved at another hospital.
Overall, this is basic service that doesn't care for emergencies but rather if it fits in their schedule. If I'm ready for another pet in the future, I will probably make another vet their home.
