- NBNorma BamacaNov 5, 20255.0Buen lugar para llevar a tu mascota
- KKkatOct 3, 20252.0Extreme lack of patience with high energy dogs. refused care for my dog twice now within 5 minutes of being in a room with them, all because she was being skiddish. Waste of monthly insurance costs. Trying to be understanding but it gets to a point.
- PAPamela AlexanderSep 25, 20255.0Very caring and so good to my Sage. Answer questions quickly. Open 7 days a week. 🌞
- LLLinda LysholSep 15, 20252.0We had an appointment and the receptionist lied and said they had been calling us. I had my phone on me all day and no one from Banfield or Petsmart had called. If Banfield can’t get reliable vets, we’ll try somewhere else.
- GBGarry BirdSep 15, 20251.0I make an appointment via the app because my dog was sick, I drove 25 min and they ask me to call, so I waited for 13 min on hold with the clinic, for them to tell me that by the doctor discretion they won’t be able to see my dog that day!! And they told me also that they where full and also again they repeated by “doctor discretion” they haven’t even saw my dog and the doors where close!! So it was a terrible service

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 Your monthly payments can be automatically withdrawn from a checking or savings account or charged to a credit card so that you don’t have to worry about them once you enroll.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