How to Save Money at Central Mesa 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 started taking my dogs to Dr Senter in 2017. She always treated them as if they were her own pets and gave them the best possible care. She’s always had amazing techs that work really hard along side her to care for my pets. My dogs have had SEVERAL drop off appointments AND in room appointments and the amazing quality of care is the same either way. I trust Dr Senter and her staff implicitly and highly recommend taking your pets there as well! Thanks for everything CMVH!! ❤️

Brought in my cat who i explained was having hair ball issues. We saw the vet for maybe 2 minutes, she walks out after doing nothing, saying nothing about what to do for her. Then in walks the assistant with a printed out plan from the dr. What??? Total over $600 for blook work and xrays ! Nothing was said why these were needed, the assistant said the cat was tender when vet touched her. The woman never said anything to me .. but if you a constipated with a hairball you may be tender in the abdomen. The Vet charged me $53 for 2 minutes of her time, no discussion no suggestions for a remedy. Brought our fur ball home and googled remedies, for her issue and in two days she was back to normal. I will not be using this place ever again, turned into a money making rip off place. Sad.

This place was very good for an animal's first time vet visit. It was only when the vet had to take a rectal temperature reading that things got a bit wild. Our cat's eyes went HUGE and boy did he twist and squirm, yet the vet tech held firm and it was all quickly over. Located right along the canal in Mesa, this office doesn't mind walk ins of animals in distress should you be walking in the area. Inside they had a cat themed clock and the waiting room had a beautiful fish tank and postors of many different kinds of cat breeds. It was an enterrtaining office. They had an office cat that had the run of the floor that was large and fluffly. My daughter was delighted with this office.

We live around the corner from the clinic and one day we had to bring in our cat that suffered some type of break out, the experience was awesome and needless to say we have been bringing in the rest of our pets to this vet. We had our toy poodle get a dental cleaning and it’s always nerve wrecking since they have to be put under anesthesia. We knew she had really bad teeth but did not know how bad it was since she is a rescue. They had to pull out 23 teeth 😱 but they made me feel so reassured that this would benefit her. After a week of her procedure she is like a new puppy!! She feels amazing, she is eating way better and best of all no stinky breath!!! Best money I have ever spent!! We recommend this vet to anyone who is looking for a vet that has heart and compassion for both pets and humans! Dr. Sara and her team truly care about her patients and that is so hard to find these days!

Dr. Senter is the best! You would be doing your pet a disservice not bringing them to her! She’s thorough, honest and respectful to your fur babies!
