How to Save Money at Lee's Veterinary 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.

Get Quotes & CompareGetting 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.

I took my bearded dragon in to have a fecal exam and overall wellness check and I was treated with such kindness and respect. He said I had a very healthy boy. Dr Bruce Lee is just awesome and I am going to be bringing all of our pets there now. So grateful for such great care and attention.

Dr. Bruce Lee is a excellent veterinarian and a caring human. Over many years my fur babies have received excellent care from Dr. Bruce. My current fur baby is still living due to his surgical skills. His empathy for their humans is amazing. I recommend Dr. Bruce to all my friends and family.

When i arrived i parked in Spot #4 & then called them to Sign In like the Sign posted said. I explained what was going on with my FurBaby & what my normal Vet had done. I wanted a 2nd Opinion because i know my FurBaby & she wasn't getting any better. I was told that someone would come & get me when it was our turn. I rolled down the windows and we enjoyed the strong windy breeze that would blow through the car. Dr Bruce Lee was the Vet we saw. He listened to everything as i explained everything that lead to us to take the drive North on Hwy 31 for a 2nd Opinion. He was so kind & gentle, very thorough with my FurBaby & explained everything. My bill afterwards was a bit on the pricey side (I had a Price Shock for sure since I'm used to paying between $25 & $60 at reg. Vet), but i probably could have set up a pymt plan after reading the bottom of my Itemized Receipt. It was nice to see what each thing cost so you know the exact breakdown. I may have found a New Vet just not one that I can afford to go to often. This Vet also sees a wide variety of animals from lil to big. Pups to Horses & Cattle. I believe they even do After Hour Emergencies, but not certain. You would need to ask that upon your visit. I had forgotten to ask when i was there the other day.

Dr(s). Lee and staff are awesome! They are extremely nice, wait times are typically short, they are honest and don't try to "sell" you false hope or services...in other words, they are honest and upfront. Our last visit was to euthanize our Golden Retriever who had skin cancer, but the compassion of all involved made it bearable, even though we were heartbroken!

Got my dobermans ears cropped at Lee's. He did a great job and took the time to talk to us and find out exactly what we wanted. He asked for pics , and looked at our puppies ears during a free consultation. The price of the surgery was on the high side but he does all of the weekly care and bandaging that is involved with the posting process throughout the entire process so really it all comes out in the end. I would highly recommend.
