How to Save Money at Twain Harte 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.

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.

So grateful for finding such a good vet hospital for all of our animals! The entire team is compassionate and caring. They even have a doctor who treated our chicken!

I understand staffing has been an issue for many businesses. However, now we can’t even get through on the phone or email at all. They don’t answer the phone and don’t return voicemails or emails. I’m an established client with four pets and sadly have to find a new office. When they used to be responsive to customers, they were excellent to work with - Dr. Jackson and Temple were always very caring and thorough. Sad to say goodbye since the office is now unreachable.

Dr. Jackson performed a procedure on my 7 year old cat, Bo, who has been in my life since he was 4 weeks old. He had a very large fecal build up in his colon. She did an incredible job. She prescribed medications and special food to keep his stool nice and soft, and to stimulate his colon so it will contract on its own. Leading up to the surgery, Bo had to stay in the hospital for a week. She took extra time out of her busy schedule to keep me updated the entire time. She has since followed up with me several times, and gave him an X-ray today, a week post surgery, and his colon is empty and continues to contract on its own!!! I am FOREVER grateful to Dr. Jackson and her staff. She is a beautiful person who deserves the absolute world! If you EVER have a problem with your pet, go to her. She actually cares about animals. A lot of vets just want your money. She wants to see your fur baby happy and thriving. Dr. Jackson, I cannot thank you enough. You are a healer and a hero. You saved my cat’s life, and mine.

Our dog was suffering from some type of respiratory infection and our Vet couldn't get her in. We were desperate and called Twain Harte Veterinary and they saw her. Thank you! Great staff too, very reasonable prices. This is now our Veterinary

My poor little Boston terrier puppy “Bean Beans” is sick and I called the emergency number and Dr. Jackson got back to me quickly and met me after hours to help my puppy. She is not only an incredible vet, but she’s just an incredible person all around. She genuinely cares for your pet as if the animal was her own. I am praying for little Bean. Thank you so much Dr. Jackson for all of your hard work and empathy you are so helpful and wonderful. Thank you for giving me peace of mind tonight.
