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.

Getting 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.

At first I was skeptical about using such a commercialized vet for our dogs. I thought we would lose that feeling of comfort you typically get at private veterinary practices and I thought the customer service would be subpar. I could not have been more wrong. Banfield's entire staff at the Webster location does everything they can to make you and your pet comfortable, they are transparent with costs, and they are always willing to chat about concerns. Some reviews say that last minute appts are impossible, but I have been able to call them and get same-day appts for urgent issues on multiple occasions. I am so glad I set aside my initial concerns and gave them a shot. I would recommend them to anyone looking for veterinary care for their fur babies.

I’ve been using Banfield for 10 years now and love them. The staff is always friendly and helpful. They love on my dogs like crazy! I really like the plans they offer so I can pay monthly versus a big bill every 6 months and the plans include extras that wouldn’t be normally be included in an office visit outside the scope of the standard 6 month health checks. Dr. Kori is the BEST at the Webster location!

Very pleasant experience! Our previous vet very much disappointed me but Banfield has been very accommodating with veterinary and boarding service. We spend thousands of dollars a year on our pet. Banfield has earned our business going forward!
