How to Save Money at Temecula Creek Veterinary
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.

Dayle Siegel and staff from Temecula Creek Veterinarian are honestly the best in our area, and I have never had a more experienced and caring exam for my husky. I was used to distracted 10-minute exams with very little time spent exploring and explaining treatment options. Our visit was clearly helpful, and the medication prescribed has helped amazingly for arthritis and joint stiffness. There is no need to look any further for the best services. A+++!

We love Temecula Creek Veterinary! I do not have enough good things to say about them. I have used all their small animal doctors, and I love them all. I love that they are mobile because I no longer have to stuff a cat in a carrier, drive it to the vet so I can arrive before my appointment time, to sit and wait in a waiting room with a stressed out cat for 45 minutes after my appointment time. Going to the vet used to be a 2-3 hour ordeal, but not any more. They always come at the appointment time; I think the latest they’ve ever been was 10 minutes late, and that might not even be accurate because I was in the bathroom. I have used all their large animal doctors, and I love them all. I have an Arabian mare, and I love her, but she’s no saint. I swear, when she’s having a mare moment, they tolerate her better than I do. Their office staff is professional, competent, and efficient. I get answers to my questions promptly and they can explain it to me like I’m 4 if they need to. They treat me like family. Bless them for all that they do because heavens knows I’ve asked a lot from them and they don’t bat an eye. Those of you that believe in Heaven can expect to see Temecula Creek Vet’s office staff there. Saints, all of them. Lastly, what started it all: in home euthanasia. It is a game changer. I will NEVER take my pet into the vet to be put down again, if I can help it. My dog had no idea, she just thought they were visitors or friends of mine. She got to go to Rainbow Bridge in her bed, in her home, instead of on a linoleum floor in a place she never liked to begin with. There is no dollar amount I wouldn’t pay for the peace they brought during that difficult time. And they send you a condolence card, my own family didn’t even do that. Best vet practice there is! Hands down

Absolutely the best experience under stressful circumstances for me and my horse. Dr Luna was kind, understanding, on time and informative. The office staff is also very nice. Thank you all.

Dr. Teresi did an absolutely AMAZING job with my extremely scared 90lb rescue pit bull who was quite the handful.. She was so understanding, compassionate, and had great communication! Not to mention very fair priced. My Poppy was spayed in front of my house which was a little different but so convenient, I would trust Dr. Teresi and her staff with my babies again no problem. Highly recommend to anyone!

We had Temecula Creek Veterinary come to our home to put our 20-year-old dog to sleep. Dr. Tracy and her assistant Kat were very compassionate and professional. The procedure was peaceful, smooth, and reasonably priced. The loss of our dog was very heartbreaking for our family but they were very sympathetic and gave us all the time we needed to say goodbye. Since our kids were also present, Dr. Tracy took extra steps to shield them from seeing the procedure. We also received a sympathy card in the mail the following week that included a personal handwritten note from Dr. Tracy and Kat, plus it was signed by everyone in the office. Temecula Creek Veterinary seems to truly care about the animals and their owners. We would definitely recommend them. Thank you
