How to Save Money at Healing Touch Veterinary Wellness 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.

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.

Highly Recommended! Dr.Gray and all of the staff are wonderful with my dogs. I love the forward thinking about the healthcare of my dogs. They treat homeopathically and are kind and thoughtful in their approach. I’m very grateful for Dr. Gray. She is tops in my book. - Andre Barron Milo - Scout - Henry

Healing Touch Vets are the best. My little Frenchie had severe bloody diarrhea. We discussed the why it happened and a plan going forward. My Frenchie received herbs not West Coast Medicine with side effects. I bring my other dog a Lab Pitt mix who is 8 with arthritis in her knees. Dr. Audra gives her accupuncture and follows it up with acupressure. She is running at full speed in the backyard with the little Frenchie. Thank you to Dr. Audra and her incredible staff.

Dr. Gray at Healing Touch has been a trusted vet for our animals for nearly 20 years. She is the ONLY vet I trust our animals to...knowing that they will receive the best loving care as if they were hers. After bad experiences with other vets and practices...there is nowhere else I would go.

I could write a book about the world-class care our dogs get at Healing Touch. Dr. Gray has been our vet for over a decade and we’ve also seen Dr. K and Dr. Audra and both are terrific. Without exaggeration, we’ve had extra quality years with our dogs that we would have missed with less skilled care. Recently, we’ve spent some time on the east coast and practices there with great reputations are far behind where Healing Touch is in new treatment options (one vet kindly duplicated the weekly treatments Dr. Gray was doing for our guy at Healing Touch and subsequently started offering similar treatments to her patients). Everyone who works there is genuinely lovely and kind (Tanisha, the practice manager, should run the world) and I learn so much from them. We are beyond grateful for all they do and I can’t recommend the practice more highly.

Healing Touch, is exactly what their name signifies. I and my doggies find the care and treatment of my furry guys is best available. Most courteous and helpful staff- Dr. Grey, is beyond being the Best Veterinarian.
