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.

Dr. Fig is the best Vet I have ever taken my babies too! I followed him from his former office and will continue to recommend him to anyone I know! He is compassionate, knowledgeable and shows your fur babies so much love. Thank you Dr. Fig from me and my Maple Rose! As for Banfield, they make it so easy to be able to afford quality care for your babies with their monthly payment options! Truly grateful to them for helping me give the absolute best care to my girl!

So far I am very happy with the attention my little baby has received. Dr Figueroa, Dr Lopez and staff are amazing. If it would be good if company evaluated those who pay monthly , receive better discounts on medications or procedures.

We had such an amazing experience at Banfield! From the moment we walked in, the staff was friendly and welcoming, and the entire visit felt incredibly smooth and stress free for both us and our cat, Leo. Dr. Figueroa was absolutely phenomenal. He had the most calming and compassionate bedside manner, making Leo (and us!) feel completely at ease. He took the time to explain everything thoroughly, answered all of our questions with patience, and was incredibly informative about Leo’s health and care. You can really tell he cares deeply about her patients and their families. It’s not always easy finding a vet who balances professionalism with warmth, but Dr. Figueroa exceeded every expectation. We left feeling confident, reassured, and truly cared for. Thank you, Banfield — and a special thank you to Dr. Figueroa. We’re so grateful for the wonderful care you gave to Leo!

I had a terrible experience with Banfield Pet Hospital. When they first diagnosed my dog, they never showed me the results of his tests. Then they prescribed the wrong medication, and when the prescription ended, the doctor was unavailable. I left a message as they had told me we needed to check whether the dose should be adjusted, but no one ever followed up. My dog is still showing the same symptoms, and instead of providing proper care, they force you to pay for their medical plan for a full year—even if your pet dies. Their service is unprofessional, careless, and I absolutely do not recommend them. To make things worse, after all this lack of communication, they had the audacity to send me a message asking me to rate their service. Banfield only cares about locking you into their plan, not about your pet’s health.
