How to Save Money at Highlands Animal Clinic
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.

Dr. Wahl and team spent almost an hour and a half with us for my 2 dog’s new patient intake appointment. I really appreciated the very thorough exam and that at no point did we feel rushed to get through it. He made sure to answer all my questions and concerns providing reassurance and counsel where appropriate. Really amazing partner in maintaining my pets’ health and wellbeing - so glad to have found Highlands Animal Clinic and Dr Wahl. Very reasonable prices.

Let me preface this by saying I don't have pets, probably will never be inside but drinking coffee across the street and simple musings at the most fairy cottage looking veterinarians clinic office was all it took for locals getting their own coffees and breakfast bites to exclaim how wonderful not only is the atmosphere but being able to bring their doggos there just blocks from home and work and there isn't many places especially in the big city where such glowing and happy exclamation will be heard that I truly hope I can bring a friend's pet down just to go Inside, not that I want a friends pet to be feeling unwell, surely one needs a check up or trimmed nails or something. Just look at the place and try to tell me you don't want it to be the next place you bring the furry ones.

I had a great experience! The front admin were welcoming and thoroughly explained my bill, the vet tech and vet were awesome with my pup and answered all of my questions. The place itself was clean and had plenty of treats. We will definitely be returning!

They have gone above and beyond with caring for both of our dogs. Especially with post surgical care that went poorly for our sweet boy. They would view pictures sent over to see if we needed to come in, called daily to check in and they always accommodated a last minute appointment to ensure our dog got the care he needed. We’re very appreciative and thankful to have them as our vet!!
