banfield is a training facility for new vets. they don't have as much experience and they aren't very good at what they are doing from my personal experience. i liked their wellness puppy plan and it did get us through Sadie's shots and spay which all were fine, but anything not included on the plan is way too expensive and outrageously priced and the fact that all their medications and prescriptions are made by banfield in house and have been given names that banfield chooses so that you cannot recognize them for what their brand names are is kinda scary and hard to research....
my final decision is THUMBS DOWN.
I would go for an experienced private vet.
