I had my cats checked out at Banfield today and got some pricing information that I would like to share with you guys. If you want to compare prices with other veterinary clinics on the basic checkups and meds, this would be a good reference.

Before I start, I'd like to mention about the service I received at Banfield in Hoffman Estates, Illinois. The doctor was very helpful and honest about all the problems our cats had. She gave us many options and never pushed us for expensive tests. We were very satisfied with her work.
