When you’re looking for a friendly vet clinic to provide attentive care for your dog or cat in Sterling, VA, look no further than Banfield Pet Hospital in Town Center Plaza. Our Sterling clinic is located in the middle of Town Center Plaza and is easily findable via Harry Byrd Highway. Whether your pet is in need of illness treatment vaccinations, parasite care, or other general petcare services, our Sterling Town Center veterinary team is here to help.
Dr. Sam was very rude, I took my cat in for a check up for weight gain and she needed an update for a shot. Dr. Sam asked me if I could wrap my cat up in a towel for him so he could give the shot (as he did not want too.) So I did, then he started criticizing me for “not handling my cat well while he had to give the shot” as it was difficult for him. I expect better from “animal experts” when I take my cat in. Thank you Dr. Sam for your criticism but I’m not the expert.

My golden loves Banfield! He’s on a comprehensive insurance plan and gets care whenever he needs it, all his vaccinations are included, and he gets a dental cleaning included every year.
I’ve had nothing but great experiences here. All of the vets have been outstanding and the staff is knowledgeable and extra friendly. Saves me thousands of dollars per year on vet care and the app is super helpful!

What is an Optimum Wellness Plan?
Optimum Wellness Plans are designed to provide annual preventive care.

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.
