How to Save Money at PAW REHAB Pacific Animal Wellness Rehabilitation Center
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.
How Do You Choose the Right Pet Insurance Provider?

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.

Whoever answered my call just now was needlessly rude. She managed to interrupt me twice in a span of a maybe 1-2 minute call and seemed to take pleasure in telling me their next appointment isn’t until June. The vibe was “how can I get you off the phone as soon as possible because we are too busy for you.”

They saved my Emmy Lou from a lifetime of pain. She is walking and happy and eating and smiling. I don't know what we would have done without Dr. Bak and ALL the staff at Paw Rehab. We were so lucky to get the recommendation from our vet.

This has to be one of the greatest places I've ever brought my dog. Bruno is giant yellow Labrador who is around a hundred pounds and 13 and a half years old. Over the last 6 months or so he began to have some mobility issues with his back legs. I just wanted to make sure that he didn't have pain and really wanted him to be able to have better stability and to be able to comfortably move around. The therapy and care he's received at Paw Rehab has made such a difference you just wouldn't believe it. He's doing so well, I absolutely know this therapy has added so much to his quality of life, and probably has given me much more time with my dog than I would have had otherwise. Everyone there is just terrific. Super caring and very knowledgeable. Dr Bak really knows her stuff she explains things well to me and I trust her absolutely. And my dog is completely in love with his therapist Nancy. He sees Nancy and knows instantly she is there to help him and she takes such good care of him he is putty in her hands! They are very thorough in their examinations and rechecks of him and really take the time during his therapy to give him a good experience. The feeling at the facility is calm and serene, unlike other Veterinarian offices I have been to where it just feels like there's a constant emergency going on. My dog is so calm over there that he gladly drinks water or lays down to relax. At my regular vet he's way too nervous and pent-up to do either of those things. I would recommend Paw Rehab to anybody who has an animal who needs Special Care, because this is the place where they can get it. Special shout-out to Alyssa, Michelle, and Kiefa. And of course Nancy! They along with the rest of the staff are so wonderful, I thank them for taking such great care of my best buddy Bruno. From the bottom of my heart, both Bruno and I are wagging our tails! Love this place!

I started taking my American Bulldog Rambo back in December after searching for a reputable, honest rehab facility. Rambo has a lot of problems in his young life. Elbow surgery (both) and both left and right ACL surgeries. He was in pain and has arthritis. They were wonderful at first with his rehab, however I decided to cut short his treatment. I was told he had ringworm. I was a little suspicious and quite shocked as Rambo has.been an indoor door for almost a full year. I bought all the expensive medications and creams that were recommended. I felt their diagnosis was severely interfering with his treatment so I decided to have him tested twice by two different vets. Both tests (using infrared light) cane back negative. This was of course after I bought all the suggested creams and neds. That is when I decided to cut short his rehab. I found another rehab and Rambo is thriving once again!! Anyway, I am appreciative for what Paw Rehab did for my Rambo in the beginning. Sad we couldn’t finish but I knew their ringworm diagnosis was incorrect. I should have protested but felt I spent enough already and not comfortable there any longer. I think they are a bit over cautious which isn’t a bad thing, but in my case prescribing unnecessary medications and creams is not good for my dogs health or rehab. I am grateful and sad at the same time. If I could give 3 1/5 stars I would. They are great just not for Rambo. Again, it’s about Rambo and his health. He’s doing great. I owe Paw Rehab half of his new and improved healthy outcome and half to his new rehab. He’s running again and that’s what is important!

I may be an employee but regardless I'm impressed! Dr. Bak has been helping my senior pup, Spanky, through a flexor tendon injury for the past few weeks and he is doing great! Spanky loves to come to work and get his therapies!
