How to Save Money at Mile Square Animal Hospital

Schedule Regular Vet Visits

One of the best ways to save on vet bills is to prevent expensive health issues before they develop. By scheduling regular wellness checkups, your vet can detect health issues early, helping you to avoid costly treatments and surgeries down the road.

Price Shop for Pet Prescriptions

Oftentimes our fur babies are prescribed human drugs off-label. Your vet is apt to charge more for these medications than you would pay at your local pharmacy. In fact, big-box or chain pharmacies can offer steep discounts. So it’s best to price shop.

Pet Insurance

Most pet insurance providers will pay between 80% and 90% of the vet bill. You can even get coverage for routine care and things like vaccinations and dental cleanings. If you do the math, you’ll most likely find that pet insurance makes financial sense in the long run as well as gives you peace of mind.

Getting to Know Your New Vet: Essential Questions to Ask

Choosing a new veterinarian is an important decision for any pet owner. You want to find someone who is competent, compassionate, and a good fit for you and your fur baby. To help you get the most out of your first appointment, here's a list of essential questions to ask your new vet:

Tell me about your experience with [pet type].

Different vets have different areas of specialization. Some are experts with cats, some dogs, some pocket pets, and some horses. Knowing that your vet has vast experience treating your specific type of pet can bring you peace of mind.

How do you handle emergencies?

You must know what to do in case of a pet medical emergency. Inquire what after-hours policy the clinic has, whether they have on-site emergency care available, and if they have a relationship with any nearby emergency animal hospitals.

How do you communicate with pet owners?

Good communication is key to building a trusting relationship with your vet. Ask how they prefer to communicate (phone calls, emails, online portal) and how often you can expect to hear from them.

Are there any breed-specific health concerns I should be aware of?

Some breeds are predisposed to certain health conditions. Knowing what to watch out for can help you catch problems early and get your pet the treatment they need.

Do you have any questions for me about my pet?

This is a great question to ask because the answer will show that the vet is interested in getting to know your pet as an individual and is willing to listen to your concerns.

Bonus question: Can I take a tour of your facility?

Getting a feel for the clinic's environment can help you and your pet feel more comfortable during your visits. Remember, you’re not just looking for a veterinarian, you’re looking for a partnership. Do not be afraid to ask these questions and any others you can think of. Any vet worth their salt will be happy to answer them. Because the more informed you are, the better equipped you'll be to make decisions about your pet's care! And that should be every vet’s top priority.

Dr. Musa and her team are compassionate and friendly. The BEST honestly. I’ve seen many vets over the years and I would hands down recommend them. We are new to the area and have/had 2 senior mini schnauzers. Our girl Pixie was diabetic and nearing her time here on earth. Dr. Musa took the time at our new patient eval to sit on the floor with me and my dogs give them love, check them out, and explain the signs of things I should be looking for to make that call. Fast forward a few weeks ago, we decided it was time. The staff was super caring and kind during such a difficult appointment. We got all the time we needed with her. Dr. Musa sat on the floor with me again and loved on Pix during her last moments. I’m so grateful for them during that difficult time. When it was time to pick up Pixie’s ashes, they included a sympathy card personally signed.

This is more of a clinic in the hospital! Good customer service does not equal quality health care in my opinion. They can’t even provide syringes that won’t break in one day. If that’s not enough… I came in telling staff that my cat has a growth in her nose. Staff were playing it too safe and waited on the doctor. She just ignored what I had to say and insisted on going through with medicating her. $800 On the next visit we had to get her nose cleaned so the doctor can figure out what the problem was… for around $700. All so they can tell me that they don’t have the equipment to remove the polyps in her nose. No quality of life consultation! They didn’t refer me to anyone else. They just took the $1,500 and could care less what happens to my cat… I’m really disappointed in this location. I was under the impression that this was on par with VCA. My suggestion… bite the bullet and take your little ones to a VCA. Please value your little ones and spend that money on quality healthcare.

Very compassionate and caring vet. We take our dogs here and recently had to to put one down. The vet gave us all the time we needed and explained the process very clearly. Definitely recommend for your pet care.

Horrible service and clueless vet. I took in my 4 month old kitten for nasal congestion and discharge, she straight up refused to give him medication because according to her he is active and will not need meds. And she vaccinated my kitten while he was still congested. This vet is clueless of what she's doing. I forwarded her reports of what tests my kitten had already had and yet she was trying to do the same tests again and run me a bill of 700 plus dollars. Do not take your pets here !

If you're looking for an amazing, patient, educated AND thoughtful vet then Dr. Weitz will be your best bet. I came into his clinic this past week after my foster pup fell ill. I'm new to the area and immediately took her to the closest vet with good reviews. Understandably I was worried, Jessie is my first dog but Dr. Weitz and their team kept me educated and updated on her health both quickly and with great thought. I have other pets that I've taken to the vet, but this has been the most empathetic and thoughtful experience I've had to date. Dr. Weitz and his team truly put the needs of the animals they see first before anything else. Thank you to Dr. Weitz and staff for being a good neighbor to a new dog mom in the Fountain Valley community :)
