Personally, I would seek a vet other than Banfield to treat my animals. Just my opinion, however, they are the HMO's of vet medicine. Charlie was seen by Banfield several times before I adopted him, and they didn't even diagnose his demodex or thyroid condition; plus, I would never let them anesthetize my pet. Charlie had a dental procedure in July by our regular vet, and then referred to a dental specialist to remove his bottom canines due to the possibility of breaking his jaw. Having the best available for your yorkie's teeth is so important. Good luck.
