How to Save Money at Countryside 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.

Great experience. I have been using Countryside for over 2 years since I met my 'Prince'. He came to me as a rescue and I had no idea what I was doing. They are always great and prompt, no matter what office I use, having 2 offices is awesome for convenience. Now being that they are so great they are busy, but they always managed to fit me and mine in next day or pretty quick depending on urgency (have not had emergencies requiring same day care). Staff is friendly and genuinely loves animals. You get what you pay for. Vets are not human centric they are animal centric so be patient and appreciate their love and care for your pet. Understand that all the people you see in the office are not available to help you so please be patient they are working on other things. The human part of the office is small, so all the staff is crammed into the front, visible thru the check-in window, so while you see 6 or 7 staff members they are not all there to check you in, so please don't be that person, wait for someone to acknowledge you and check you in (Often its the ones at the back computers checking in not the 2 poor ladies in the front who everyone gets rude with- witnessed many times.)

This is the only place I trust taking my cat fur-baby. My cat had a semi-emergency and Countryside got him in and out with his meds and a cone. They can get expensive at this place, but they always come through for our cat and it's always worth it.

We’ve been taking our pups to Countryside since 2020. They have always been very sweet and professional! They love our dogs as much as we do. I trust the care and treatment every time.

Love taking my cat Lucky Lily there. Office staff very accommodating and friendly. Waiting time in lobby 5 minutes Immediate attention in examining room. Dr Brewer took time to give me a tour of facilities. Most standout feature to me all the employees seemed genuinely happy. I recommend them very highly

Took my cat here for his skin allergies and flea treatment and the process was smooth and stress free. My cat is usually afraid of everything but they made him feel at ease. I will definitely be using this place as a regular vet service for my animals. The price for the visit was pretty cheap in my opinion and they have good deals on flea meds.
