Our Company

Founded in Portland, OR, in 1955, Banfield is the largest veterinary practice in the world and an innovative leader in the industry. In 2007, Banfield joined the Mars, Inc. family of businesses, and today we are more than 860 hospitals strong with over 14,000 associates working toward one goal—to give pets the highest quality veterinary care in neighborhoods across the United States and Puerto Rico. Banfield focuses on preventive veterinary care—a proactive approach to medicine aimed at early diagnosis and improving overall pet health. From the publication of peer reviewed evidence-based papers, to our industry-leading anesthesia protocols, to our annual award-winning State of Pet Health™ Report, we have helped raise the bar for the standards of pet health care.
