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.

Abby 14 and Dexter 10 has been Banfield customers since the day we got them. 13 years for Abby so far and everyone loves her and treats her like family. Dexter is a solo loaner dog but he still loves the ladies at the vet very much. We love our Oakleaf team!!

Brought 65lb dog in to be neutered. They agreed to also do ear cleaning and treatment. One of the vet techs seemed to think it was smart to aggressively approach my dog with hands reaching for his face while he was in a muzzle while he and I were backed into a corner and then were surprised when he got nippy. They didn't do ear cleaning because my dog woke up too soon after neutering, unexpectedly they said. Now he's in an e collar for 2.5 weeks and can't scratch and they didn't even bother to fill the ear drop prescription before I left. I have to pick it up 5 or 6 days later. And on top of all of this, the e collar wasn't even installed correctly. They didn't secure the tabs as intended and it came off within 5 minutes of getting home. I fixed it myself. Overall I will be looking for a new clinic, even if it's our of the way. I feel like they didn't plan out the procedures well. Oakleaf failed to deliver on services promised and now my dog is more uncomfortable than he needs to be. I'll be picking up the ear drops in a day or two.
