How to Save Money at Monterey Park 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 brought in my kitten as a first time patient because he was sick. During his appointment I wasn’t allowed to go in because of their Covid rules which is fine. The thing I had a problem with is what happened after my kitten’s appointment. The doctor is supposed to call you and let you know what is wrong with your pet. Will, what I got was a phone call that lasted less then a minute and I had to ask the doctor to repeat himself because I couldn’t hear him, he repeated himself but still couldn’t hear him. What I expected was longer conversation because I was charged $70 because my pet was a new patient. I had a few questions I wanted to ask the doctor but he cut me off. I will never go here again. But I would like to say the staff was extremely nice.

Nothing against the staff, they're very polite and helpful but. They changed my appointment from the morning to the afternoon which was fine with me but I waited 45minutes before they took my pet in. 9o degrees outside and no parking space available.

I've been coming to this vet for 20 years. They have been taking care of my animals. They're are good Doctors. My cat got sick last year and they cured him. Last week my cat got a flu and an eye infection. They gave him an antibiotic shot, respiratory therapy twice a day for 2 days. Also some antibiotics for his eye infection. He's getting better.
