How to Save Money at Cole 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.

I can not say enough good things about this place. They really do love animals. They are extremely fair with their pricing. I completely trust them with my animals lives. We have a very healthy 14 year old dog and 3 bunnies. All the staff here is extremely professionally. Highly recommend

I have been bringing my pets here since I moved to FL, about 12 yrs ago. Dr. Phillips is by far, the kindest, most caring, and loving vet, I’ve ever encountered. He was there when my sweet Lassie passed away, he came running ! I was devastated and he literally took care of everything ! My family & our pets adore him !! Staff is friendly & helpful. I couldn’t recommend a better clinic.

I have multiple dogs... all rescues and they are my "kids" this is the ONLY place I trust to care for my dogs! Dr. Philips is not only super smart, but caring as well and so is the entire staff. When i moved to Florida i was VERY lucky to find them, my dogs are all large and most bully breeds... my dogs love going to the clinic and that right there says a lot! :)

We started using Cole Animal Clinic earlier this year for our 10-year-old toy poodle mix. The staff is so nice here, it's clean and it's not chaotic in the lobby, which is important for vet-weary dogs. My dog recently hurt his foot (it ended up only being a bad bug bite) but he couldn't walk on it suddenly. It was 10 minutes before the they closed for the day, but the doctor and staff stayed late so I could rush him over. SO nice of them! Cole Animal Clinic often has rescue kittens that they find homes for, and we recently added a member to our family thanks to them. I really can't say enough nice things about the staff. We are happy to have found this Vet in east Boca Raton.
