How to Save Money at Cross Winds Animal Clinic
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.

Dr. Roach was the best vet we have ever seen. She explained options and then gave some personal insight to help make an educated decision. She was very conscious of money and quality of life for our old girl. She was so friendly to us but most importantly to our dog. She was right there on the ground with her helping to hold her up and guide her to lay down when she was ready. We live in Ahwatukee and will continue to drive to Crosswinds because of the amazing care we always receive.

If I can give 10 stars, I would!! I highly recommend Cross Winds Animal Clinic and Dr Roach is amazing!!!! She sat on the floor with our anxious Calypso and gave her all the time she needed to warm up to her and feel comfortable. She educated us on our Calypso's breed and gave us some great pointers! Thank you Cross Winds Animal Clinic for being so amazing!!!

My best experience with a vet! The staff was friendly, prompt, caring, knowledgeable, and the price was very fair! The vet went above and beyond typical care by spending extra time with our dog and giving us advice! Wonderful visit!!

This is my very first visit to this clinic as recommended by one of my clients at my auto shop. Recently my veterinarian retired and sold the locale to anew outfit that will not have regular vet services and instead, will be a 24 hour emergency hospital. I have to say that my first experience at Cross Winds was very pleasant and I really liked the thoroughness that my wife received regarding my first dog's appointment, especially since my boy Mopar has a heart murmur and is a very delicate and emotional situation for me to deal with. I sincerely liked the tactful and positive approach he received in every way and the fact that I wasn't apprehensive from the start. I am bringing in my other two buddies on their regular check up date to see if they feel the same as Mopey when they meet the staff. So far, I am very glad I made the decision to come here just based on trust from my dear friend (and loyal client). Ms. Janis!
