How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Banfield Pet Hospital

Preventive care

Routine wellness exams can help identify health issues early, often before they become more serious or expensive to treat. Regular checkups are one of the most effective ways to manage long term veterinary costs.

Compare prescription pricing

Some pet medications prescribed at veterinary clinics may also be available through local or online pharmacies. It can be helpful to compare pricing when appropriate to reduce ongoing medication costs.

Consider pet insurance

Pet insurance may help cover a portion of eligible veterinary expenses depending on the plan, including accidents, illnesses, and in some cases preventive care. Coverage details, reimbursement levels, and deductibles vary by provider.

Dr. Cousins and the Techs are absolutely amazing. Since September we were trying to find out what was wrong with my baby but unfortunately we were not able to treat it and had to but her down. Dr. Cousins and his team were very informative and caring throughout the 5 months of test after test. They took the time to send out a card with everyone saying nice and caring things and loved my baby as much as I did.

Both this location and the Flower Mound location are terrible. Our senior dog needs a daily pill for chronic trachea issues, but only certain vets can write the prescription he needs (and they can only write it for a 30 day supply at a time). The problem is the vet will write the prescription on the wrong letterhead (which happened yesterday at the Denton location), and so the pharmacy won't fill it. Of course, that vet is off today, and now we can't get the medication for another day until they return and correct THEIR mistake. We tried the Flower Mound location, and their vet is off until Monday, so I guess that's that, and all we can do is wait because of Banfield's mistake. I regret our wellness plan purchase, and if our dog suffers because of Banfield's inability to provide proper care, then we'll proceed with any and all legal recourse for their negligence. All this to say, do yourself a favor and avoid Banfield. The front office staff is sweet, but you're at the mercy of whichever vet is available at any given moment, and hopefully your pet doesn't run out of their meds while you wait to see who can help you in a few days time.

The front desk staff, vet techs, and vets are all so sweet!!! I love calling them and going in. I never leave without my questions answered and it has been the best deal for my pets and so affordable on the monthly plan compared to other places. I have 3 pets on their monthly plans and plan on adding the other 2. Thank you!!!

Took my cat in for suspected eye infection, was told with absolutely no testing, no temperature was taken, only thing done was looked at her eye, said it was feline herpes and she just needed to wait it out there was nothing he could give us. She worsened, I took her to another vet and she received eye ointment and antibiotics for a URI while they said it was very strange we weren't given testing or medication. Denton Vet Clinic is the same price don't bother coming to where you won't receive any care.

They are so friendly and so kind!!!! They’re helpful and super attentive. Although my cats are spicy when they have to come here, the staff is super accommodating to them.
