How to Save Money at Atlanta Center for Animal Osteopathy
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. Parker has been such a huge blessing for me, my dogs and my horses! I have started learning so much from her concerning the overall well being and health of my animals. She and her staff have been more than willing to go out of their way to help or accommodate, even after office hours, on multiple occasions. My two Jack Russels would be horrified if they ever had to see a different vet. They LOVE Dr. Parker!

I have used Dr. Parker for both my Dogs and Horses for quite a while now. Even though their focus is dogs, I have received so much good care and knowledge for my horses whenever she comes out. My dog has been treated quite a few times including sewing him up after a bad cut. Everything healed great and I will keep bringing all my animals here.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Parker-Royer. My cat has been going to her for 18 years and we absolutely love her. She is intuitive, compassionate and incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of your animal's health. I don't know what we would do without her! Her entire office is superb. I cannot recommend her more highly.

Dr. Kimberly is AMAZING! She truly has a heart for animals. Her knowledge and expertise in diagnosing and treating my horse quickly saved his life. We had an emergency situation after business hours, but she was still willing to help us. She even followed up multiple times over the next few days to make sure he was improving. It's very unusual for find a vet that is so caring. I highly recommend her!
