How to Save Money at Modern Animal
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.

We just moved to LA from out of state, and we’re so grateful we chose Modern Animal to be our new vet. Let me tell you, we’ve never had such a top notch vet experience until now. Literally everything from customer service, to price transparency, to the comfort of our pets, and MORE! I would 10/10 recommend this place to anyone looking for a new vet. Also, I’m very happy with the modern animal app. It has made the entire process from scheduling to consultation to check out and vet records sooo much easier and efficient. We got the yearly membership for our pets and it’s very well worth it too. The staff are all very knowledgeable and attentive. Dr. Hilary really listened to what we had to say and make sure our pets’ comfort is prioritized. She took things slow with our Gali because he can get easily anxious with new people/people handling him. It was also surprising that our cat was calm and collected during the exam. Which never happened in the past with our previous vets. We love Modern Animal!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Dr. Colon and the entire team are truly top-notch! I recently brought in my dog, Brooklyn, and despite me being a little stressed and in a rush, they handled everything with the utmost professionalism and care. The staff was patient, attentive, and treated Brooklyn like he was one of their own. From the front desk crew to the folks working behind the scenes, everyone went above and beyond to make sure we felt supported. Jay Leno once said, "You can't stay mad at somebody who makes you laugh," and even on a tough day, their kindness and humor helped lighten the mood. I couldn't be more grateful for the way they put Brooklyn on the path to feeling better. If you're looking for a place that genuinely cares about your furry family members, this is it! Highly recommend!

I was so impressed by Modern Animal, Glendale. The appointment was very easy to book through the app, parking was easy and right outside the vet, the clinic was bright, modern and clean. I didn't have to wait long to see the vet and the appointment went very well. Both the vet and her assistant were very professional, friendly and handled my cat with care and attention. My cat is old and somewhat cantankerous but they were so gentle with her she didn't mind being handle (too much). All my questions were answered and the vet gave me clear advice on pet care. It was probably the most positive veterinary experiences I've ever had and I hope that it will be this great every time!
