How to Save Money at Companion Animal 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.

We’ve been bringing our animals to Companion for years and can’t say enough good things about them. They genuinely care for each and every pet that comes through their doors.

I put more thought into choosing a vet than i do my own doc. Dr. Munger has been part of our family for over 20 years. I trust that he, and everyone at Companion, are always honoring our loved ones. I trust his guidance in decisions of the lives we hold closest to our hearts.

Been going here about 15 years. They're very caring and sympathetic. Veterinary practice for both cats and dogs.

I have never been able to, nor can I now, say a bad thing about this vet office! Dr. Munger is the veterinarian I have trusted my family's and my animals with since I was just a tot. Every time I bring in an animal (most recently my 11.5 year old Boxer), he listens carefully, makes sure the animal is comfortable and loved, and always gives me every bit of information I may need up front. He has never lied to me on anything. Recently my dog, Roxy, has needed a little more care than when she was younger. I took her in last year for a teeth cleaning, and while she was under anesthesia, Dr. Munger went ahead and took out some bumps I was slightly worried were going to cause complications. She came out of surgery drugged, but happy. This year I took her in to see Dr. Munger to discuss a lump I found in her chest/neck area. I took her in right away. Dr. Munger took some samples from that lump and a few others on her body. He analyzed them in house, told me a few of them were just fat deposits (fairly common in older dogs), but he was worried about the one on her neck. She was scheduled for surgery, went in a few days later, came out of it with no complications, and has not shown any detrimental signs since he removed it! Roxy is as happy as can be, loves the attention and the people at the vet's office, and I never have to worry about bringing her there. The office staff is very competent, and they always have some chocolate treats for the people and some doggy treats for the pups. I highly recommend Companion Animal Hospital!
