    The staff and vets here are awesome. They are nice and you can tell they actually love their job. My dog is very scared of doctors but Dr Gibbs actually got on the floor with Duke and talked to him and he started to relax. She wasnt in a hurry to get him through the appointment. She took her time and answered all my questions. I really appreciate how caring everyone is here. Thank you banfield for taking care.of my Service Dog Duke.

    ⭐ 1.0 Stars - An Expensive Lesson in Incompetence Title: They Omitted Fleas and Worms. What ELSE are they forgetting? I am writing this review feeling totally frustrated and disappointed. My experience with Banfield has been a complete failure, and I wanted to warn other pet owners. I used a free first-visit coupon to bring my dog in for his initial check-up. Maybe that was my first mistake. The appt. was rushed and condescending from the start. I explained to them clearly that he'd been scooting and was a bit itchy, but they said it was likely an anal gland thing or an irritant skin condition. They did a cursory once-over and gave him a "clean bill of health." Flash forward three weeks, and my poor pup was miserably itchy, to the point of losing hair. I took matters into my own hands and discovered a full-blown flea infestation. His extensive grooming revealed not only fleas, but also signs of worms in his stool. I was outraged. How does a trained vet, on physical examination, not see something as easy and glaring as FLEAS and the telltale signs of a worm infestation? Now I just have to wonder if since I used the free coupon, they decided not to even attempt. Did my dog's health
