How to Save Money at Banfield Pet Hospital
Schedule Regular Vet Visits
One of the best ways to save on vet bills is to prevent expensive health issues before they develop. By scheduling regular wellness checkups, your vet can detect health issues early, helping you to avoid costly treatments and surgeries down the road.
Price Shop for Pet Prescriptions
Oftentimes our fur babies are prescribed human drugs off-label. Your vet is apt to charge more for these medications than you would pay at your local pharmacy. In fact, big-box or chain pharmacies can offer steep discounts. So it’s best to price shop.
Pet Insurance
Most pet insurance providers will pay between 80% and 90% of the vet bill. You can even get coverage for routine care and things like vaccinations and dental cleanings. If you do the math, you’ll most likely find that pet insurance makes financial sense in the long run as well as gives you peace of mind.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting to Know Your New Vet: Essential Questions to Ask
Choosing a new veterinarian is an important decision for any pet owner. You want to find someone who is competent, compassionate, and a good fit for you and your fur baby. To help you get the most out of your first appointment, here's a list of essential questions to ask your new vet:
Tell me about your experience with [pet type].
Different vets have different areas of specialization. Some are experts with cats, some dogs, some pocket pets, and some horses. Knowing that your vet has vast experience treating your specific type of pet can bring you peace of mind.
How do you handle emergencies?
You must know what to do in case of a pet medical emergency. Inquire what after-hours policy the clinic has, whether they have on-site emergency care available, and if they have a relationship with any nearby emergency animal hospitals.
How do you communicate with pet owners?
Good communication is key to building a trusting relationship with your vet. Ask how they prefer to communicate (phone calls, emails, online portal) and how often you can expect to hear from them.
Are there any breed-specific health concerns I should be aware of?
Some breeds are predisposed to certain health conditions. Knowing what to watch out for can help you catch problems early and get your pet the treatment they need.
Do you have any questions for me about my pet?
This is a great question to ask because the answer will show that the vet is interested in getting to know your pet as an individual and is willing to listen to your concerns.
Bonus question: Can I take a tour of your facility?
Getting a feel for the clinic's environment can help you and your pet feel more comfortable during your visits. Remember, you’re not just looking for a veterinarian, you’re looking for a partnership. Do not be afraid to ask these questions and any others you can think of. Any vet worth their salt will be happy to answer them. Because the more informed you are, the better equipped you'll be to make decisions about your pet's care! And that should be every vet’s top priority.

I bring all my animals here. Claudia at the front desk is always helpful. Anna, the vet tech is the best with my dogs. I have always received excellent care, and they never make me feel bad if I decide not to have something done to my pets. I have an aging dog and chose not to do dentals anymore. They were totally fine with my choice, and I appreciate them not pressuring me.

We had a appointment last Friday for our new puppy Dallas and were seen with danielle. She was absolutely awesome as well as all the staff. They were all so helpful and knowledgeable. We look forward to returning for future appointments

Today was the absolute final straw with this hospital. We have had our pets cared for by Banfield since they were puppies. We had a comprehensive appointment today and after this experience we are taking our pets elsewhere. The vet came in and said, "Her blood work results are pristine" and I said "great." However, when he started talking about her teeth I said, "I am not putting my aging dog under anesthesia to have her teeth cleaned." More discussion about the fact that I refuse to put my dog under anesthesia, about how he is not employed there but is an emergency vet and has been doing this for 57 years etc. He then said, "Well hopefully her teeth will fall out and her pain will be relieved." There is tartar on her teeth, no abscess, no problems with her sleep, eating etc. She is fine. We are never coming back to Banfield.

As a new patient we were not able to get an appointment at any veterinarian that wasn’t weeks or months in advance. At Glendale Banfield we were able to get an appointment within 24 hours. We were grateful for the care we received and feel blessed to be accepted as a new patient.
