How to Save Money at Sundance Animal 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 am writing this review to tell you that my cat Sourpatch had to be put to sleep today. The ER vets at Blue Pearl took care of her Tuesday when she had a diabetic stroke, as well as today with what was at least a 45 min seizure. I say 45 min because I actually have no idea when it started. Blue Pearl told me that her insulin was way too high and asked me what I was doing. I let them know that I was following your vet's directions. She said that the way you were testing her and the increases were insane, in that short amount of time. That there was no way to really know how she was doing without properly timed testing. And increasing her dose every two weeks as a result, based on poorly timed tests is what caused her stroke on Tuesday and the horrible seizure today. I would also like you to know that when I called your office around noon today saying my cat was having a seizure, I was offered an appt today at 330. Seriously.? What has happened to my poor cat is horrid and apparently totally avoidable . But instead I was treated like a number on the phone with no care or concern about the situation and no compassion. I'm also out about $1000 this week, if you'd like to reimburse me THAT would be awesome. I would like your vet's to be better schooled in how to treat cats with diabetes and how to treat the pet parents. I lost my cat today because of their lack of how to deal with her illness.

Truly caring individuals here, been coming for years. Always looking out for the best care for my pets! I like taking my pets here because I never receive any sort of upsell like other vet places that are not needed. They always follow up with a courtesy reminder and courtesy check up as well Thank you
