How to Save Money at Cameron Veterinary 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.

Getting 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.

Dr Cameron is great. The rest of the staff are forgettable. They are in my neighborhood, so I was a customer for several years. The past few times when I have attempted to make an appointment it has been impossible to get in to see any of their vets for any reason. Wellness appointments are booked out several months in advance and if you have an urgent care need like an ear infection, or foxtail, something that historically you routinely could get an appointment for within a day or two, they flippantly refer you to urgent care. So today, they once again referred me to urgent care and I took them up on it. My dog has a new vet who actually cared enough to see him, diagnose and treat his ear infection on the same day!!! I can’t wait to support a local vet who actually will see and treat patients in a timely manor. The same type of service that Dr. Cameron used to provide.

I've been bringing my cats here for over fifteen years, every since Dr. Cameron opened her own clinic. She's great — she knows a lot and has been able to diagnose weird problems in some of my Maine Coons. She and the rest of the staff were very compassionate when I had to have a cat euthanized a few years ago. The other vets I've seen here are great too. I have no complaints, only compliments.

When you need the very best, why go to the rest. We only see Dr Cameron. We have had 2 sets of litter mates that she has cared for. Animals are part of the family in most homes. We had experienced an array of challenges with our first set. Due to our dogs health problems, yes there was money spent. Dr Cameron never does procedures unless she needs to. No extra money than necessary. There are follow phone calls to see how things are going. You have to remember she is only the messenger. If your dog needs treatment you want the most educated as well as kind when the news might not be what you want to hear. Her skills dealing with the animal as well as the human are outstanding. When the first brother and sister had lived over 14 years before we had to put them down. We would not have gotten another pair until we were assured she wasn’t going anywhere and not hanging up her stethoscope.

I won't take my fur babies anywhere else but here. After going through multiple vets in our area and coming to Cameron based on a recommendation/ referral. I wish we would have found Cameron's much sooner. Everybody that works there is very knowledgeable. They take their time to know you and know your fur baby. They actually listen to you. I'm sure you know how it feels when you take your animals in and you want to brag about them and the vet acts like their listening but they really aren't. Well not here, they share their own stories. Every, Dr. We've seen there is top notch. I could go on, but I would just be repeating myself. If you go elsewhere, your choice. My recommendation is Cameron Veterinarian Hospital.
