Banfield Hospital sold us ************* (yes, that's what their staff called it) that is not actually pet insurance and we are EXTREMELY UNHAPPY with the fact that in order to cancel the "insurance" we are asked to pay the remaining annual "premiums". Basically purchasers of their "*************" are prepaying costs of pet care services for a 12 month period. The monthly fees they quote in their ads are misleading. We have been paying $60+ per month for a healthy 7 year old Wheaton Terrier which is twice the amount they adve... read more

If I could give it zero starts I would. The wellness plan I had for my 2 dogs was good for the first 2 years when my dogs only needed monthly pills and vaccines. If you need an appointment for anything that can't wait 2 months go somewhere else. I paid monthly (I was paying $150/month for 2 dogs) and wasn't able to get an appointment EVERY single time I needed onel They would not have appointments for months at the 5 locations near me, yet they still charged me every month. When my dogs got hurt on 2 separate occasions they ... read more

The ***** ** Has a practice that is HORRIBLE. The practice manager, *******, is a jerk. Over the past year, *** called him SEVEN TIMES and HE NEV** HAS CALLED ME BACK.

Dr. ***** lied to her supervisor, saying she had offered a urine culture and that I declined.

I literally went to pick up my dogs and since banfield dont do in office visit. There no way for me to tell what happen behind the scene. I got there 30 min before my dog pick up and all I can here was my dogs screaming in the back with pain. We need to have this invigated.

Was told I could cancel insurance premium at anytime, learned this was a lie, my pet died, and I'm told now I must continue to pay off premium until it expires, ornpay in a lump sum to pay it off, this is absolutely ridiculous that they expect you to pay for service of a pet you no longer have, they are liars....I do not recommend anyone go to Banfield with their pet(s). I am currently looking into a way to get them exposed.
