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.

Getting 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.

They have been really good to our Aussie. I really like their packages that are reasonably priced. We appreciate their kindness towards our shortest family member. 😜

Jazmin has helped us at this hidden gem of a location multiple times, and I feel like I'm leaving my greyhound in great hands each visit. This location can always get us in for a last minute/emergency appointment and I really should make them my home office (my location never has availability for weeks or a month at a time, and when I do get an appointment, they call me same day to leave a voicemail cancelling my morning appointment I already started to drive to and miss because I'm loading multiple excited dogs, but I digress). AND they were able to do her comprehensive exam during her drop off while she was getting her eye stain and meds together from an angry cat scratch. She was seen by Dr. Weininger and both meds seem to be doing the job! Very grateful for this friendly, thorough, accommodating vet team!

Dr. Jennifer Weininger will not accommodate you if you have a special circumstance. She will run multiple tests that you don't need that's not included on your pet plan. She will not help solve the problem you present just give you the problems. Lastly, she will have you go out of your way multiple times to retrieve any special documentation needed. Worst veterinarian at this location. Never again!

We purchased the dog wellness plan for our dog. And she was going in for her comprehensive exam. They are very good about notifying us as to when booster shots are due or teeth cleaning needs to be done etc.

After being put on hold twice(trying to schedule an appointment) and hung up on both times, I asked to speak to a manager or supervisor, and then was hung up on again. Per the supervisor their reasoning for the disconnect was a phone issue. Unfortunately then they’ve been having the same phone issues since January. I think it’s a staffing culture issue.
