    DO NOT RECOMMEND. Terrible attitude. We drove 40 min to get here, late for 15min (which includes the time when the reception was chitchatting with another customer). And the reception insisted someone must have reached out to us about the “10 minutes” policy and refused to take us. AGAIN, NO ONE REACHED OUT TO US. At least you could have called to checkin with us so we won’t waste 40min driving down here and another 40min to drive back. If you forget to call us and check in then just admit it. Why would you lie and blame everything on the customer side?

    This is a trash place. The doctor is very impatient and I have no idea what they will do to my pet. I recommend no one coming here. How can a super impatient doctor be a good doctor???

    It’s been a pleasure taking Mia to Banfield. I have gotten great support for her health needs.

    Dr. Ovi is incompetent. She has no idea what she is doing. Instead of looking at my dogs history with Banfield for 10+ years, she made me get xrays to diagnose a chronic back issue that's been known for years, and is unchanged, and was already diagnosed at banfield 2 years earlier. She missed pancreatitis in my dog and made her suffer for 4 weeks, while also getting those unnecessary xrays. Then delayed routine yearly dental cleaning for another chronic issue that has been unchanged for years. She outright refused to perform the dental cleaning. Now, she's delayed my dog's care for 5 months for repeat testing, ultrasounds, and echocardiograms with the promise of doing the dental cleaning, just to once again refuse to care for my dog because Dr. Ovi is not competent enough to clean teeth. Now suddenly Dr. Ovi informed me all the testing she demanded was not needed and was in-fact "elective". I could have gone elsewhere 5 months ago. She wasted everyone's time for 5 months, including her staff's time, to accomplish nothing.

    The vets and vet technicians here are some of the most caring and compationate people I've had the pleasure to bring my cat to see. They listened to my concerns and were so helpful in determining the best course of care for my elderly cat. Even at the end of her life they were so kind to me and helped me through a lot of the tough decisions. Definitely a great place to take your pets!
