We get people that come into our clinic with estimates from Banfield for various things and they just floor me every time (maybe it also has to do with the fact that I work for a non-profit clinic, but still). One recent example was a man who brought in an estimate for annual visits on 2 dogs that came to over $700! But then again 2 dogs can get their annual visit with all vaccines (3 yr protocol), fecal, hwt, and 6 months of preventive for $100 each so I may be a little bias lol

$700 that is really high for an annual visit for two dogs. For one dog it costs us around $100. (Maybe $110) For two it was never more than a little over $200

I'm going to ask my friend how much her dogs last check up visit was. I would hate to think she is getting ripped off.
