How to Save Money at Sobol 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.

Getting 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.

If I could rate them a 10 I would! The staff are absolutely amazing. Doc was super nice and gave us amazing treatment for our 3 dogs. Unfortunately we has lost one to old age and medical complications and the staff were so supportive to us during and after the process. They also arranged for cremation and memorial for her. It was beautiful and so special for us to have. Doc treated all are dogs like his own and provided a written explanation of services and cost prior to treatment (so no surprises when we checked out). I am so happy to have found such an amazing vet and staff in Florida.

Last night my cat was badly injured. Despite the fact that I have not been to his clinic in a few years, Dr Sobol saw my cat by 8:30 am and rearranged his whole schedule in order to operate. My boy is now recovering. This is far from the first time Dr. Sobol and his staff have come through for me. They took excellent care of my previous cat who was 20 years old and facing end-of-life issues. I am so grateful to have someone like him to turn to when I really need help. Thank you Dr. Sobol!

I have been going to Doctor Dan since 2000 then continued with same establishment when Dr. Sobels took over. I trust Dr. Sobels 100% in his diagnosis and solving any health issues. My thanks to Dr. Sobels and his staff for caring for our little family members. B.M.F., remember our Vets in and out of the military 🎖️

We are so happy we found Dr. Sobol. He and his staff have helped us through a complicated health situation for our cat Lucy. Dr. Sobol and staff have been extremely responsive and caring, and have provided us with sound medical advice and treatment. Professional, thorough, and prompt, an absolute pleasure to work with. Highly recommend Dr. Sobol!

My whole family now uses Dr. Sobel including 3 dogs: Cooper, Dublin, Leo, 1 other cat Deliloh, and my cat Brixy. He was highly recommended by my mom to see if he could get Brixy’s re-occurring ear infection to go away. She has been in pain for roughly 2 years. After trying multiple vets in Orlando and another in Fort Lauderdale after recently moving here in June 2022. Dr. Sobel demonstrated his knowledge and Brixy’s ear is fully cleared. She is a happier cat. I will never use another vet!!! His employees are also very sweet and welcoming! Thank you again Dr. Sobel!
