Banfield Pet Hospital

I scheduled an appointment online for 06/29 at 1:00 PM. Banfield called me and left a voicemail confirming the appointment for 1:00 PM on 06/27, which I then confirmed over text as requested. I even showed proof of the text confirming the 1:00 PM time. When I arrived for my appointment, the front desk staff told me they were expecting me at 2:00 PM because the vet was on lunch until then. This was shocking, as I had clearly confirmed the 1:00 PM appointment time. They told me they don’t see patients at 1:00 PM due to their lunch break, which I understand and respect, but no one ever called to notify me of any time change. I planned my entire day around this confirmed 1:00 PM appointment. Banfield needs to respect their clients’ time. Clear communication and proper appointment management are essential, and I was disappointed in how this was handled.

Update: I received a text notification that I had an upcoming appointment on the 19th for my cat to get neutered. I had explained to the doctor that I would not be able to within 2 weeks (of the original appointment date) as I would be in Europe. I had never scheduled a second appointment here and my review below explains why I would not go back, they took it upon themselves to schedule an appointment without my knowledge or consent as well as during the original appointment, no one stated to me directly that I had a follow up appointment. My statement still stands, do not visit here as they are not transparent, customer service is lacking heavily, they do not have an ounce of care for your pet, and they will make excuses and lies about your pet being “aggressive” ________________________________________ This is my first experience at the Banfield in Eastern Marketplace and if I could, I would give it 0 stars. I had originally went to the Banfield in Metrotech (which I had a great experience with the service and staff) and I wish I could say the same for this location. I had booked an appointment for my kitten to have his shots updated for 5:00pm. My wife and I arrived at the location at 4:54pm and was quickly checked in. After the check in we had waited for about an hour and was finally reached out to 10 minutes prior to closing. Once spoken to by the vet/doctor, everything was just rushed. The vet tech was fine, she explained everything well, though she kept stumbling on her own words, but when the doctor came in to speak with us she spoke in a condescending tone explaining that one of her associates was scratched due to my kitten being aggressive when they drew blood. When at the Metrotech location they had no issue with my kitten being aggressive when they drew blood (the associates at the Metrotech location loved our kitten and were taking photos/videos of him being affectionate.) Other than that interaction with the doctor, everything else that was explained to us was just a jumble of non-sense. They kept adding and taking away different procedures which made no sense to suggesting if they were not going to complete them originally. When we finally got home and let our kitten out of his carrier, we noticed a huge stain of blood over his leg and his legged looked mangled once the bandages were removed. Lastly, I booked for an in room visit, but we were not able to be in the room during the shots??? Inconsistent, inconsiderate, rushed, and just full of excuses. If you care for you furry family member, DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT take them to this banfield.

Wonderful Staff! Very kind to both myself and my animal. I have trust in the veterinarians there. The membership is reasonably priced and saves money overall.

Went in to get written prescription for preventative and told to come back later once they call, it’s been weeks and 4 calls later they never did have it ready. It’s past my dog’s scheduled date for the medicine. Each time I call they said the doctor is not in and will make a note and it will be ready tomorrow! So unprofessional & unorganized!!!!

My visit with our newly adopted dog went quite well. When I realized I forgot her files, they were patient and gave me some time to get them. The doctor spoke in detail and the front office staff were helpful and kind.
