How to Save Money at Thrive Pet Healthcare Specialists North Scottsdale
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.

The care and compassion at Thrive is unmatched. Our dog Fenny was so well taken care of and everyone we came in contact with was so kind and gentle. The facility is beautiful and everyone is professional. The team kept in good contact with us all throughout our dog’s procedure and Dr Adams took the time to thoroughly explain all his findings and recommendations. I also happened to arrive early to our appointment and from the car watched a team of people working outside with a German Shepard recovering from surgery. It was so moving and I could see how much everyone cared. I could tell we’d be in good hands. I hope we won’t need emergency or specialty services again but if we do, Thrive is the place I will bring our beloved animals.

My dog needs surgery that is beyond our regular vets ability. She gave us a list of surgical providers to pick from. Our Oncologist recommended Dr Radlinski at Thrive in Scottsdale on 83rd street. She got us an appointment for the next morning. The consultation went well and we decided to have the surgery done there. I was impressed by how fast we got an appointment. Other providers I had called could not see us for a consult until the following month.

I recently had to put down my cat of 20+ years in the middle of the night here. And just a couple years ago my brother and I came here to put his elderly dog to rest. I speak about both times and say I have never been to such an amazingly caring veterinary office. Every person working there is beyond compassionate and kind. The process was fast, the space was quiet and perfect, and the prices were very fair. I’d recommend this vet office to anyone.

Dr. Chappell and her team are the best. My 14-year-old Norwegian Forest cat was treated for a dire kidney infection. He is now home recovering in good fashion. This is the best place on earth for serious medical or surgical conditions for any treasured pet! Thank you millions for giving Benji Boo a little longer to enjoy his amazing life!
