Banfield Pet Hospital
Banfield Vet Clinics Wellness Plan & extortion pressure to buy expensive non-covered tests

Health & Medicine

Banfield vet clinics can sucker a smart consumer if a pre-check isn't done with the complaint service. Now that I found out their sly "got-cha" plans, I have the impression that the network put for a lot of effort with the help of corporate psychologists for how to best manipulate people who are responsible pet owners.

They are a network that allows a person to believe that any of their clinics can access your pet's records, and that's desireable if one travels with his or her pet or needs to leave their pet with a relative who has a closer Banfield clinic.

The Wellness Plans are appealing to pet owners who are realistic that their pet will need a certain amount of primary care even while a young dog or cat. So the free teeth cleaning in the plan guided me to a more expensive plan.

Everything worked well enough with the first year of the plan except for succumbing to their pressure to buy their over-priced flea-tick-mosquito guard product that quickly sickened my 6-pound chihuahua.
