How to Save Money at Providence Veterinary Care
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.

Best and only place I take my hairy kids too! They are the best family to leave my babies with! Prices are well within reasonable medical fee expectations. Staff is caring, friendly, kind, welcoming, and very empathetic. We trust them highly!

We took our calf to the large animal facility off Strawberry today for castration, and WOW! The care and compassion that Dr. Glover and his amazing assistant Kaitlin showed today was top notch! The doctor even took the time to educate us and explain everything as he was performing the procedure. I definitely recommend this veterinary clinic!

Our little dog broke her leg it was almost time for their clinic to close and we live 20 minutes away. I called them and they said bring her in they would stay late to see her. They took great care of her and got her splinted and pain meds. Wouldn’t take my pups anywhere else.

I called another vet to get my puppy in to be seen because I suspected she had parvo, but that vet wouldn’t see her. So I called providence, when I told them I suspected she may have parvo they said to bring her in immediately that they would work her in. I brought her to them and she tested positive for parvo. We went over treatment options and since I couldn’t afford for her to stay in the vet for treatment they explained to me how to insert the IV and how to treat her from home. We did exactly what they said and after 4 days she was up and back to her old playful self. I won’t ever take any of my pets anywhere else to get treats. They helped save my sweet Isabella’s life. And for that I will forever be thankful

Brought our mini Aussie in on Monday, she was diagnosed with parvo. Dr. Mauldon asked if we would like to try a new treatment. Brought my pup home Wed. by 930 am. And she has not slowed down since. This is an awesome group of Vets. Don't want to go back but if I need a vet I will be knocking on the their door. Highly recommended.
