Maybe set up one appointment with them and see how it goes. You don't have to buy the plan if you don't want to, but you would just have to pay for that visit. Also, usually on a certain day of the week Banfield will have a "wellness day" or something like that where you can bring your pet in for vaccinations and a free check up. You pay for the price of the shot, that's it, no office visit cost. Call you local banfield to see if they do that and what day/time it is. That would be a good way to get a feel for the vets without spending a lot of money. |
Wellness days are basically just a shot clinic. If your dog has an issue or isn't "well" and needs to be seen by the dr the waived wellness office visit fee does not apply. You can go to the humane society or low cost s/n clinic or shot clinic to get the same exact shots for cheaper. Plus they don't push you to get more vax than you need to.
