How to Save Money at North Florida Animal 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.

Thank you so much Dr Simmons and surgery staff! I was visiting from out of town, and my chihuahua had been throwing up daily for a month and I’ve been to several different vets and none have been able to successfully treat him except Dr Simmons! My fur baby was suffering for so long with the daily vomiting it felt like he was withering away. Dr Simmons and his staff were able to make time for us the same morning I called. Dr Simmons was very thorough and did a fantastic job with the surgery. I got my little man back to me the next day and I’m so happy he is back to good lhealth and enjoying life again. I’m very thankful to Dr Simmons and his team. They saved my chihuahuas life. Special thanks to Haley for taking the time to listen to my concerns and squeezing us in on a busy day, and also Jaymee for the updates and pictures while my baby boy was in your care.

If you have any pain you want to take him to the north Florida animal hospital, this is a great place to go. They love your animals care for him and they take care of them. Really really well. They take care of my dog. She's for now. But she was three when she was there. But it was one of the best messages that I've ever made. I guess as vet wise I definitely recommend them absolutely!

I Can not say enough great things about NFAH! When I arrived for my (7:15 am so early) appointment, I was greeted by bright and cheerful staff. I only waited about 10 minutes in the waiting room before I was taken into a room (which was expected since I arrived early). I noticed that there was a chalk board in the lobby with a welcome sign for all the pets they would be seeing which I loved! Rich was my vet tech, and he was fantastic! Once I was all checked in, he left to go get the Doctor (dr. Fogler) and I only waited for about 5 minutes before they returned. While she talked to me, Rich was on the floor giving my dog a treat and lots of love. They did the exam, and my dog was calm the entire time. When it was shot time, my dog did jump a little, but Rich kept her calm. After that, they left the room to go get the results of the blood test they ran, my dog heard Rich’s voice in the hallway, and she ran to the door to wait for him. When they came back, dr fogler talked to me, and Rich was back on the floor with her. Once I was done with them, the girl came in to get my billing information, that was done in the same room so I never pulled out my card in the lobby. From the moment I walked in the door, I was welcomed, and my dog was well taken care of! Thank you so much for providing this amazing vet experience!

Thank you to Dr. Simmons and Dr. Fullerton for taking care of my concerns and helping both of my Bernese mountain dogs. Also I want to thank all staff for being so kind and treating the fur moms and dads like we're family. It means the most to us knowing our pets are in great hands. Keep up the good work! Highly recommend!
