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.

I have been bringing my dogs here for years!!! This location has the nicest, most competent technicians and receptionists! I just wish it wasn't so far from Marysville!! Esp. when the traffic is thick!!! I can not be so complimentary about the staff at other locations in the area. I enjoy having my pets on the wellness plans; it saves me money in the long run and they help remind me to take care of routine health checks!!! Great Vets!!! Just wish there was a Banfield Pet Clinic in Marysville - with great staff!!!

They will always put you on indefinite hold for simple questions over phone and can't call back, what kind of trap is this? I am stocked with pet care annual plan, once my plan ends I am going to change vet. Not sure if all vets are like that, but they just want to charge money even for minor things, not a good experience so far!

I would advise no one to take there pet to the mill creak office, the care I received was minimal to say the least, the vet didn't touch my pet and then tried to diagnose the issue, (from across the room). Had he done his job and did a therow inspection in stead of a jest question and glance visit with my baby the out come might had been different, So I as said above would advise anyone to stay clear of this office and vets that work there, for your pets health wait for a opening at a different office or different vet,

When we were in the process of having to put our sick cat down, we were told we would get her paw prints along with her ashes. However, we were given no paw prints and were told “there’s nothing we can do now.” Not sure how that gets overlooked. Do better.
