i will never forget on 2/13/22 my dog was put to sleep because of this day. we have trusted them with our first dog. my dog, Thor had kidney stones. they performed the surgery. they should have given him something to calm him down. if you know the breed golden doodle, you know their energetic. his stitches opened up on the SUPER BOWl. turns out his organs were rotting because of complications and they did not know? they said it was around 15k for a 50% chance of a good quality of life. this is your fault. you didn't treat my baby right and he died at 3 years old. i will never forget the phone call one of the nurses crying, sobbing apologizing for this. they couldn't call for a bit because their was an investigation or whatever the fuck. the money the audacity they gave to give us money? my fucking dog is dead. money is not going to bring him back. REMEMBER his name. Thor. rest easy my sweet baby. and this place just get be removed from existence. if you want your dog to die a painful death, for sure don't bring them here. thanks to working with dogs finally to realize this. read more

The worst experience possible. After barely ever using this unnecessary insurance for 6 years, i noticed a collection notice. I called and nobody can answer as to why this happened when they have my credit card on file. Nobody called me or told me even when i had my dog have his routine check up. They wont talk to you to explain and i was pushed around like a ping pong from one person to the next. To save my credit i paid and cancelled this service. i will NEVER go back to them and strongly recommend not using them. read more

My family and I were overwhelmed by the kindness expressed by the staff at the Holmdel site. We recently had to put of lovely dog to sleep after many years with us. From setting the appointment to pickup up his remains, everyone I came in contact with were so compassionate. Just remarkable. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. read more

Poor customer service. If you care about your pet don't even go in. No compassion, competency level is poor. I arrived 10 minutes late and they were rude and made me feel like I was a bother from the Vet to front desk staff. Two front desk people preceded to reprimanded me and threaten to charge me next time for the visit if I arrived late again. Did not care to listen to what I had to say or what I needed. Charged me $59.;00 dollars to complete a very short form listing my dogs previous vaccination. I felt like it was a production line service with no commitment to customer service or professional care. Not fit to work with animals or humans. They certainly need need an overhaul in their training. Would not ever go there again! Dr. Evelyn J. Nieves read more

disgusting. put our dog down when we TOLD them to wait so we can all say goodbye. I got there to say goodbye they handed me my dog DEAD and I had no idea. what kind of person hands a crying girl a dead dog and doesn't think to mention they put her down already. F this place and the cruel hearted workers. read more

I joined Banfield three and a half years ago and chose their annual plan which was around $38/month. Although my dog is never, I mean never sick, I felt it might be worth the money for the shots and for an annual teeth cleaning which can run even more than the annual fees. I never realized they auto renewed my program, so I was in for a second year. Second cleaning and they told me he really didn't need it. Third year I skipped the annual plan. Forth year, I signed up again, but since I didn't renew, they charged me an extra $50 fee or more to rejoin...crazy. Now I went to Banfields to get his shots. The doctor was rude and seemed unhappy with her job. Not a smile on her face, poor people skills. She went to give him his shots and she just jabbed him in his leg with one no gentle at all. OK, so now we needed a refill on his heartworm medication that we buy at Costco. We couldn't get them on the phone, we kept getting messages to call back at another time. So today we decided to go in, get the script and take it to Costco for the meds. Well the receptionist kept selling us on buying it from them at a discount. I told her nicely I just needed the prescription but she kept looking at his record to find out what brand he takes. I told her I would call Costco Pharmacy and find out. I did and told her what I needed. Well then it started to get ugly. She told me I had to be absolutely sure of the one I wanted. I told her it was the Heartgard Plus and could she send it over to Costco...well they couldn't do it. So I asked for a prescription..this is when it got really ugly and I quote. "Well it has to be signed by the doctor and she is with another patient now and then she has another one after that" I said all we need is her signature on a prescription why would we have to wait for her to treat two other dogs for that? Well she can't be disturbed. Why can't she sign it before she sees the next "patient" she "replied this is the way we do it here." I was now fuming all they want to do is have you buy it from them and they make it hard to get a presciption with any lame excuse they can come up with. I was now boiling, I explained that I publish the HazletNews.Com and would share my experience with our thousands of FB members and right a review on Yelp. She couldn't care less and I finally told her to send it over to Costco Pharmacy and we would pick it up the next day. Now I have heard they have declined in the way they treat customers, that they only have one doctor, she said they have two but they are so rude and their rules make no sense that I took the information to stop the auto renewal for next year. I explained I won't renew and I am moving to Florida, of course the salesman in her replied "we have locations in Florida too." As if I would ever go back to Banfield's again. They hire young doctors right out of school to work there and the one experienced doctor here as I noted must hate her job and it shows in the way she interacts with her patients and their owners. I will see if they follow through with the script to Costco and will send this review to Banfield Corporate and of course share it on all of our social media sites. read more

Really disappointed in banfield Been going there for years Call today to see if vet could see my dog who couldn't walk on back leg Was told no appointments for a week Told receptionist about having to carry dog around because he had trounless walking She seemed unconcerned was put on hold then hung up on Called back got same response next week That is crazy that they have no room for emergencies Called Middletown pet hospital and they got me in Wellness plan is up in march not going to renew read more

After I wrote this review I was met with a barrage of messages from banfield trying to discuss my situation. I spoke to them and requested that my wellness plan contract be cancelled with no further payments and cancellation fees. I was told this was approved, my plan would be cancelled and no fees charged. Fast forward a month later: I am again autobilled by Banfield from my checking account. I immediately called and asked why I am still being billed when my plan was cancelled? I was told that the plan was NEVER CANCELLED and they could not provide any more info. I was AGAIN told that they would cancel my plan and refund me the auto billed payment. 2 weeks later I called back because I had not received a refund. I was told that NO REFUND REQUEST WAS EVER SUBMITTED!! This is now a total of over 6 separate phonecalls and hours on the phone wasted on customer service reps who flat out lied to my face and did not follow thru on any of their promises. As of today I still have not received a refund. THIS IS EXACTLY WHY EVERYONE SHOULD AVOID BANFIELD LIKE THE PLAGUE!!! read more

If Nathan Schaffer is still the vet at this location stay away! He is truly the worst vet and person I ever met. He has no experience, is rude and doesn't care about animals. We brought our puppies to get there first check up and he spent more time talking about the invoice and trying to upsell the annual plan. Then when I told him can we stop discussing costs and annual vet plans and lets do a complete check of my puppy he says I'll be right back and leaves for almost 20 minutes. He comes back and makes me sign a paper stating that I will pay for the visit before he does any check up. My wife and kids were shocked how this kid that just finished school was speaking to customers. I actually was going to sign up for the annual care for both my puppies but after meeting this vet I will never return as long as he is still working there. Betsy at the front desk is nice but this vet is truly the worst and unfortunately you go to this hospital to see the vet and not the staff! STAY AWAY FROM NATHAN SCHAFFER!!! read more

Haven't been to the banfield office for awhile but the staff was very pleasant. Dr Ramnath was very sweet as well as her tech. The office was clean and the visit was quick. I wouldn't hesitate to go back again. I ordered my prescription online on a different website seeing that it was 30$ cheaper then what they were charging. I would highly recommend you get your script and do the same. read more

I would highly recommend that all pet owners avoid Dr. Vourlus at this Banfield location. Not only did we experience this doctor as oblivious to our dog's fear and anxiety, her method of handling her seemed to demonstrate impatience and little compassion. Examples of this include Dr. Vourlus stating things such as "stop it" and "hold still" while continually grabbing at our dog as she tried to hide and escape. More importantly, she conducted herself in a manner that was rude, unprofessional, and arrogant. Dr. Vourlus presented herself as unwilling to discuss potential treatment options other than the two she suggested. When I called the next day to express how she had made us feel during our visit, she once again treated me rudely and disrespectfully. Dr. Vourlus made comments such as "well if it were MY dog, thats what I would do", in a tone suggesting little to no empathy or understanding for our concerns. To be more specific, we brought our dog in for an examination of a facial wart that seemed to have gotten somewhat irritated. Within moments of meeting us and within seconds of examining the wart, Dr. Vourlus declared that it "had to go" and suggested the surgical removal of it, which would require our dog to be put under by anesthesia. We immediately expressed our discomfort with this, and she suggested an intense course of antibiotics and a steroid cream as an alternative. We remained uncomfortable with both of these suggestions and sought to discuss other treatment options to try first, which as I stated above, did not happen. This is NOT an issue of my disagreeing with this doctor's treatment recommendation, although I do in fact strongly disagree with such a drastic suggestion as a first course of treatment. This is 100% an issue with the manner in which Dr. Vourlus conducted herself, which is wholly unacceptable and inexcusable. Although I am VERY disappointed with the treatment we received by this doctor, it should be noted that I have no complaints against the rest of the staff we have met at this location. Additionally, I do hope that Banfield acknowledges that the behavior of each individual employee is a reflection upon each Banfield location, as well as the entire company. read more

My very old adopted dog has been going to Banfield in Holmdel for a few years now. He was diagnosed with gum disease and a hole from his gum into his sinus cavity. The vet there said he wasn't experienced enough to operate on him but sent me to Banfield in Woodbridge where I was told the dog was too old to operate on. Yesterday my dog had a bloody nose and I called to make an appointment. The receptionist put me on hold and told me the vet refused to see him because of this affliction and I must take him to Red Bank animal hospital. Really? After I pay this ridiculous outfit monthly payments so I can "afford" for him to be "supposedly" taken care of!?! The vet wouldn't even get on the phone to speak with me directly; Rude, unprofessional and a bunch of quacks who shouldn't be working around animals! Not sure if they have a veterinarian oath, but the vet in Holmdel forgets hers! read more

The kindest and most friendly staff ever. Everyone seems to know what they are talking about and really want the best for my dog. He enjoys coming here and so do I! read more

Stay away from their wellness plans. It is a trap. Not only did they misdiagnosed my dying dog telling me all was ok. Prescribing her weekly antibiotics, that I had to pay for, Now that I had to end her suffering euthanizing her two days ago, they are refusing to cancel the wellness plan unless I pay an additional $500. No consideration For the months of $58 payments I made when Lola was not visiting the clinic at all for months. My Lola was skin and bones yet they couldn't find anything wrong. Cruel. They just care about locking you into their money making wellness plans then they do creative math and accounting so you owe hundreds to get out of it. Still, my poor Lola has now been gone by Lap of Love Vets that come to your home and are compassionate, yet, Banfield refuses to cancel her plan even though she is no longer on this earth. Causing me so much more pain and trauma is beyond cruel. They have no idea what they're doing. Every Vet has a different version of diagnosis. Save your fur babies. Cruel. Inhuman.

This location is great with taking care of my French bulldog Sally. Always very careful and nice with my dog. One thing that is frustrating today is that I was promised a follow up phone call from this doctor for follow up information on a lame leg, my X-rays and notes were sent from RBVH to here. Never got a phone call on further instruction on my pets health and or the doctors further opinion on rest and steps I should take to help her heal. Will call tomorrow to follow up with a phone call that was promised to me Saturday morning. Today is Sunday and will call when location opens. Will update my review after I speak to doctor. Got my X-rays and more X-rays that were needed. Just waiting on my consult that was sent out. Dr. Schaffer is amazing and very kind! read more

Its has been a nightmare, when it comes to shots fine they work out but the first time you actually need them for medical reasons they're useless.. I had to fight for appointments for my dogs eye that I caught early had the same test done within 3 days of each other that I paid for both times where they found nothing so their guess work diagnosis was conjunctivitis that just kept getting worse they ended up prescribing steroids that just seemed to make everything worse I ended up in the emergency room where they ran 3 separate tests including one that they did at Banfield in which they FOUND an ulcer in the eye which steroids just damages more they told me to stop giving the drops canfield gave immediately (the specialist even wants to throw them out to avoid accidentally giving them), I came back the next day to see the ophthalmologist who said the same thing, mind you this was within 8 hours of seeing Banfield and my dog had the cone on the whole time so this wasn't a new ulcer. I'm I called yesterday saying id hear back from a vet and got no call, I'm in the process of trying to get a refund for the services I'm not even sure they did and the medication that was ill prescribed to my dog and cancelling my wellness plan so lets see if they do the right thing. This place is a money making corporation they do not care about your animals they care about pushing out appointments and quotas, do your research I'm hardly the only person who've had issues look on yelp look everywhere do not go to them for actual medical issues because my dog could now barely open his eye and could lose vision when I brought him in early enough to treat the issue. you should all be ashamed of having "hospital" in your name, I had to argue to fit my dog in the schedule there is no prioritizing of issues here just paychecks and profits. I spent less for emergency services with more tests and better meds than I did at canfield and I actually got answers and solutions, of course the ophthalmologist the next day was more expensive but I knew it would be I just wanted peace of mind. please avoid or at least research the amount of lawsuits and dog deaths have come directly from and for banfield, in some cases killing your dog with the wrong anesthesia and still charging your wellness plan until it's over. just look who owns these hospitals and that will show just how true this is because its MARS corp the same owner that makes chocolate is caring for your animals read more

Nathan Schaffer is not suited to work with animals. He is better suited to sell tanning packages here on the jersey shore. He is a sales person, not an animal lover. At our comprehensive visit while scheduling a dental cleaning, he suggested xrays and ekgs for a very healthy dog with a super slight heart murmur (a murmur that I brought to the attention of the doctor, not one he noticed) prior to the teeth cleaning. I declined, but agreed to a course of antibiotics leading up to and after, for logical reasons. His vibe the entire visit is very "this is my job" not warm and compassionate about the animal in the room. He also seemed to lack confidence in what he was saying when he spoke to me, striking me as very new at this. I am only 30 but i felt like I was speaking to a kid about the health of my family member, and also very much like a sales person not a vet... I left feeling unsure about him and even said to a few friends after how he seemed so young, not like an animal lover and poorly trained. ( At the apt he also reminded me to get my dogs nails cut as he has dup claws.... As if I havent owned my dog for over 6 years and his nails needed to be cut. We go to the groomer less than a week later and she says his nails are too short to cut... like i thought. ) I trust Banfield, so, I show up the morning of the dental apt. The woman at the desk, who is awesome, starts to go over the cost for the day. We are on a wellness plan and this visit is usually next to free. Today they want nearly $500 for all the x-rays and ekgs I declined the day we made the apt. So I again, decline and the woman at the desk (who I'd been chatting with about her dogs and my dogs and loving dogs) agrees that will be all good. We talk about the way they take their blood pressure and she assures me they take into account that hes not at home and comfy etc, because she knows dogs and how they are family. She gives me a minute to kiss my little man farewell and I head home. An hour and a half later Nathan Schaffer calls me, which clearly alarms me. Then he tells me smalls is great, but he really still thinks we need to go ahead with these xrays etc... to which i again, decline explaining as i did in his office that my dog has been under anesthesia at least 3 times since they discovered this minimal murmur. a murmur which has not worsened, is common in small breeds and doesnt effect my dogs activity level at all. He then trys to sell me a wellness plan that is an additional cost every month over the phone, siting that it includes one xray and ekg and would make todays visit free. I asked if he thought I really needed to do that and he said that the heart murmur could "increase the risk of anesthesia"... yup... not "increase the risk of complications from anesthesia". and also said that his "blood work all came back fine though". I told him not to do anymore, that I was coming to get my dog. He explains that there would be a charge of like 30 something for the blood work done. I agree... I get there, there is no charge. Because the blood work he said "Came back fine though" wasn't actually done. They take almost a half hour to get my dog from the back. I promised my dog as we were leaving that I will never bring him back there. The groomers there are good, sweet girls. The vet assistants and desk people are all good too. But the vet is kinda the important part at a vets office... My dog and I do a fair amount of traveling, we have been to Banfield's in a few states. Usually, we love them! We love how they transfer our records within minutes and are accommodating to our weird life style. They have up to this point all been clear animal lovers and intelligent in speaking about animal health. Sadly, Nathan does not live up to this standard. read more

I have two dogs, a senior Yorkie and a new Chihuahua mixed puppy, who were both rescues. In the time I've been a pet parent, I have been to many, many vets due to moves in different states and even within states. With that said, I can say without a doubt that Dr. Schaffer and the present staff at Banfield is THE BEST, hands down. I recently moved away from the Holmdel facility and tried going to the Princeton Banfield which was much closer to me, but after my appointment with the doctor in Princeton, I committed to keeping both dogs at Holmdel under the care of Dr. Schaffer and the team there. Dr. Schaffer is incredible because he is knowledgeable, patient, courteous, caring, and best of all, he never rushes you. I can definitely say that I can be a difficult pet parent as I am overly concerned and overly involved with my pets, and I come to Dr. Schaffer with a million questions each visit. He takes his time to answer each one and even goes so far as to ask me if I have any others before we are finished with the visit. I know that one time, he squeezed in both of my dogs for an appointment even though only one had an appointment and though he was scheduled to leave at 5:00 PM that day, we kept him a half hour later. Bottom line: you won't find a better team than this anywhere, with an outstanding practice manager, little to no wait time, friendly and great vet techs, and an excellent vet who goes the extra mile for his pet patients. read more

We just checked our dog out of Red Bank Veterinary Hospital because Banfield was too stupid to detect a UTI. No, really. She almost DIED on Friday after coming here for bloodwork the day before and they couldn't figure out what was wrong with her. When we brought her to RBVH the doctor immediately circled her heightened bacteria levels in her urine, which was causing her to fall, shake, foam at the mouth and basically act like a semi-comatose stumbling corpse. It was so frightening we brought her for her last rites at the church. However, 4 days and $6000 later, our dog is finally back to normal and now has 7 very expensive medications to support her getting better, to her state pre-ignorance of the jokers who claim to be professionals here. I would never take an animal here ever again - garbage care, idiot doctors and complete malpractice. I love my dog more than anything, and while the burn of paying $6000 for an undetected UTI hurts, the fact that their inability to identify from something so simple that almost killed her makes me really doubt the Hippocratic oath and who PetSmart hires. Seriously avoid if you even mildly care about your animal. I can't say it enough - this place needs to be shut down immediately. read more

I have had two wellness plans with Banfield in Holmdel for several years. For the most part, I have liked them. Recently, I noticed a huge change. I tried to make an appointment several weeks ago for check ups and shots for my two dogs. When I called, they informed me that they were unable get me an evening appointment for several weeks, stating that they were down to one vet. I explained that if I waited three weeks my dogs would be overdue on several shots but they were inflexible and unmoved. This past Monday, my dog had a serious cough and I called Banfield to bring her in. I was informed that they had no openings until Thursday. Again, they said they were short staffed and even after explaining how sick she was, they refused to see her before Thursday.My dog was feeling worse so I called Bayshore in Holmdel and they were so professional and caring.Even though we were not client's, they were compassionate and understanding. They had me come right in and determined she had kennel cough and treated her. Needless to say, we changed vets on the spot. Banfield was a huge disappointment. Although they promote their wellness plan as a means of keeping your pet healthy, the plan is useless if you can't get appointments when your pet is suffering. Banfield did not care about my pet's health or wellness but they were very comfortable accepting automatic payments each month for services that they were too "short staffed" to provide. read more

I tookmy 2 year old rottie lab mix there to be fixed. The staff was helpful. I will be back.

Many years ago we used to go to red Bank veterinary. Even though they are very pricey they have the best specialty. However four years ago I moved to San Diego end the closest veterinary that they had was banfield. They were always very helpful, knowledgeable and accommodating. When my cat Missy passed they were unbelievably supportive. when we move back to New Jersey I noticed that a banfield had opened in the Holmdel PetSmart which is a lot closer and a lot less money than red Bank. since I was so satisfied with the banfield in San Diego I figured let's try it out especially since it's a chain. Most people can't afford pet insurance and banfield understands that and offers affordable packages. I had adopted The chew most cutest black kittens that I named after the stars of the show The100- Bellamy and Clarke. Being kittens they got nothing but the utmost love. our appointments were always on time we were always greeted with friendly reception. the staff is knowledgeable professional answers any questions you have and offers opinions never tries to force anything on you. All that being said both my cats went in 3 days ago for a spay and neuter. Today is day 3 post-op for Clark as I was giving her her medication this morning for pain and inflammation I noticed that her incision site was drastically different from yesterday. She was eating drinking playful but I didn't like how this site was red even though there was no drainage and she didn't have a fever. It was 6:15 in the morning and I did not want to go to red Bank vet because she was doing okay and I didn't have hundreds of dollars to spend for an emergency visit. Banfield has a wonderful mobile app for 24-hour service that you can speak to a vet which is exactly what I did voicing my concerns over the last 24 hours and being able to show a picture of the incision site. The vet was able to calm me down talk me through what I should do reinforcing my thought that this was not an emergency but I should definitely get it looked at because I use the banfield mobile app they had access to all my banfield records not only did she give me advice to call and get an appointment today she herself had also called banfield and left a message. I called as soon as I got done speaking with the doctor at the banfield app that was at 6:30 in the morning at 6:55 the banfield that called me and we had an appointment by 8:15 we were done by 8:45 a dose of antibiotics and we were good to go. no charge for the follow-up visit which I know I would have been charged if I went to red Bank I was comfortable with my doctor's because the entire network is able to see my pets file. The staff is awesome welcoming and informative and I am in love with this app knowing that I don't have to take my cat's out in the middle of the night before the vet opens to another hospital that does not know my animals history that with a touch of an app I can speak to a vet who is affiliated with banfield and can pull up my animals history. read more

Wow Caitlin D said it perfectly: DO NOT go to Dr. Vourlos! I usually go to the Ocean location but needed a sooner appointment so I went to Holmdel. HUGE MISTAKE. I was waiting in the exam room for the Dr. and there was dog hair all over the floor and dried blood. And Dr. Vourlos was incredibly rude to me as well. She talked to me as if I was stupid. This experience really made me question the credibility of the vets at Banfield and I feel extremely uncomfortable now. read more

I must admit I was reluctant to visit this animal hospital based on the negative reviews, but it was convenient and they could take me my dog right away as a walk-in so I decided to go for it. I do not regret it at all. Pepito, my brindle mix, had an infection in his private area (!)...The staff was very helpful and caring, especially Brie the vet assistant and Dr. Graziano. They helped Pepito relax and even gave him some treats and kisses! Very importantly, I thought the prices were really reasonable and I liked the fact that the doctor provided me with alternative treatment options based on the various costs. All in all, I would definitely recommend this vet clinic to my friends. read more

I must re-post additional review on Banfield - Holmdel, NJ location...So here it is. I firmly believe the reason why veterinarian Kristen Gallicchio and her front desk receptionist refusal for seeing my pet after arriving 10 minutes late to an appointment in the past week was simply because we are African Americans. My pets have been patients at this location for approximately 10 years and have NEVER been late to a Banfield appt. NEVER. In fact, we have been seated inside examination rooms waiting to be seen for approx. 30 minutes or longer because of emergencies that arrived or others arriving late prior to our appointment. The disgust look and behavior from these Banfield staff and refusal to see my diabetic sick cat is a act of something else. This vet felt no regard for our animal nor the fact that we have never been problematic customers. And, no pet patients should had been treated this way for no reason. I'm glad I will no longer patronize this Banfield location. Beware Black folks. This is not a black friendly location as long as this vet (and I wish I remember the receptionist name) are there. All other vets there are humane. Not these two. read more

I have had two dogs on the Banfield Insurance plan for 10+ years and to say I am thrilled with all locations I have been to between CA and VA is an understatement. My two dogs have always received the best care and I know I have saved money being on this plan! They are outstanding and I wouldn't go elsewhere! read more

I've been taking my family of a dog and several cats to Banfield in Holmdel since they opened. I've never had a single negative experience. Considering how busy they are, I've always felt that the doctors and staff have given us their full attention. I've adopted a number of older cats who were unable to find happy homes. They've sometimes required significant medical attention - cancer to kidney failure. And, the doctors and staff at Banfield have supported me in caring for them and in making those dreaded end-of-life decisions. My experience with Sylvester is certainly my most memorable. Sylvester was with me in my Manhattan apartment on 9/11. In the shadows of the twin towers, Sylvester comforted me when it seemed the entire world was ending. When his body failed him and it was my turn to provide the comfort , the staff at Banfield couldn't have been more supportive. Sylvester's ongoing treatment had made us regular visitors, and the love and compassion of the staff couldn't have been more sincere. When his struggles rather suddenly surpassed his ability to enjoy life, his usual doc was out. I was incredibly apprehensive to intrust his release from his pain to a doctor I wasn't familiar with. But, she couldn't have shown more compassion and love. She sat with us both and matched my tears, tear for tear. The doctor, whom we had never met, simply could not have been more compassionate. read more

Outstanding pet and client service! I brought my cat in for an exam and to have an oral mass looked at. The vet Dr Schaffer did a complete workup and made sure I was given all options for treatment. We decided to treat conservatively and see how she does. Dr Schaffer has been nothing short of wonderful, frequently reaching out to see how Sophie is doing and keeping an open door policy regarding her health. There was no pressure regarding tests and treatment: he offered several options, including referral to a specialist for her cancer. This is a bittersweet time for us. We know that Sophie will not be with us forever, but Dr Schaffer and his team are there to help us at every step along the way. The team is wonderful! They are all sensitive, compassionate, and really seem to care about the work they do. And they love pets, that much is obvious. By far the best Banfield location in New Jersey! read more
